Shokugeki No Souma (Fanfiction)

Chapter 58

I added and edited some part because it's too short... You guys deserve better... x)

"I'm serious Isshicchi. I didn't even plan to be back this early. Ugh. I want to back out but I don't even think I can. And honestly, I can't say that I don't like it or anything..." I mumbled the last part. I leaned on a tree and rested my chin on my knees, watching the brunette toiling the soil.

"Ehhh. If you don't dislike it then it's already settled. Besides, we missed you in our meetings. It's getting uninteresting." He wiped the sweat on his forehead.

"Aho.." I lazily threw a rock at him, missing him perfectly. "I guess talking to you isn't as helpful as I thought."

"Hey! That's rude, Kurumi. I only want the best of your interest. And stand up will you? I can see your, uh, pantsu." A tint of pink on his cheeks. That's a surprise. I thought he's oblivious to these kind of things, but still...

I lazily stood up and marched towards him. He stared at me looking confused. Then my fist came in contact with his gut.
"Baka!" I huffed.
"I'm going. You're useless at these kind of situations, Isshicchi." I scoffed.
"On a serious thought, someday I'll challenge you to a Shokugeki, I'll make you my aide once you lose to me, Isshicchi. I just thought about it for some time now."
I turned my back to him and walked away. I heard him yell something.

"K-Kurumi-chaaan! Why are you so mean to meeeeeeeee???"

I snickered silently but I was serious about making him my aide.
I was about to enter inside when I saw Jiro-san already walking outside the gate. I hurriedly ran to him.
"Jiro-saaan!" I called out to him.

"Oh, Ruru-chan." He grinned at me. I walked beside him keeping up with his pace.

"Leaving already, Jiro-san? Or are you going to talk to the director? " I asked.

"As sharp as ever, I see." He chuckles darky causing me to flinch. I raised my eyebrow and stared at him.

"I guess I'm going to keep you company on the way, Jiro-san. I was planning to go there anyway. Ah, I almost forgot. My father told me to talk to you. What does he mean?"

"Don't tell him I told you, okay?" He ruffled my hair and chuckled again. "He's been very worried lately because someone kept on calling him demanding you to go back. I don't know the details but I think it's really serious. I can guess that he's doing everything he can to ensure your security."

And with that, everything that has been bothering me since yesterday suddenly clicked and made sense.
My phone. The security chages. The feeling of being watched. And lastly, being a part of the Elite group again.
I turned silent for a while pondering about the unexpected events that will happen soon. So generally, everything will change.

Starting from my goal.

"Jiro-san. Do you have faith in Souma-kun?"

"It depends. So you really find him interesting then, for you to ask me that?"

I brought out my little notebook from my inner breastpocket and showed it to him.

"Ohh. Never knew you have so many plans. You must have been so proud, Ruru-chan."

"Heeh, then I deserve a pat on the shoulder for a job well done on planning. Whatever the reason is, I'm going to keep an eye for him a lot more from now on. He piqued my real interest. Talking as the game maker, that is." I sighed as I put back my notebook.

"Talking aside, Ruru-chan. About my proposal." He grinned at me mischiveously.

When I finally realized what he is talking about, I blushed.
*********

"Souma. What do you think of her? Kurumi, I mean."

"She's nice...uhm and pretty, obviously." I blushed at what I said. "And she cooks perfectly."

"Ara ara, you've tasted her cooking? Are you even worth tasting her dish? Fufufufufu. "

"Eh? What do you mean? What do you know anyway?" I popped a vein.

"Oh, you didn't know? She was a part of the Elite Ten." He smirked at me like he was taunting me.

Wait, what? Elite Ten? Her?

"Saiba-san. You shouldn't have said that. It's suppose to be a secret, right?" Isshiki-senpai said while leaning at the door with his arms folded on his chest.

"Ahhh. My bad. Don't worry, nothing will change anyways. Hahaha!"

"Isshiki-senpai, Oyaji. What do you mean she's a part of the Elite Ten? Secret? What's going on?" I said in total confusion.

"Hah, we can't do anything about it right now, are we? She was a part of it and that was in the past. That's all I can say for now. I respect Kurumi's privacy so I won't blabbed unnecessary facts. Now now Souma-kun." He said calmly but his eyes were dark.

*********
I'm so horrible. This is so horrible. Ugh. I wanna kill myself. Haha. Jk.

****
So yeah. This is the weirdest conversation that I made. My head is full of numbers at the moment...

I still don't know Ibusaki's eye color...*cries*😅
