15 | the last cinnamon roll

You arrived at the restaurant and you see how crowded and popular it is. Apparently, it newly opened but it's already becoming a hit even outside locals.

"Reservation? Ah yes, Tsukishima," Kei told the staff.

"Table 8, Sir," she replied as someone escorted the two of you there.

"Oh, there they are! Kei! Hey!" you hear an unfamiliar voice. It was a young girl's voice and you're sure it's the first time you heard her. Kei doesn't have a sister right?

"Oh," you tell yourself as you see the long table located near the window.

"Wow," you tell yourself again as you see 12 people sitting. There were composed of the young and old, and even a toddler.

"I didn't know they'd all be here, this is pretty rare," Kei said while the two of you approach the table. Even he sounded surprised.

"Ah, so she's that girl," a man said. He was probably his uncle, they looked nothing alike.

As you reached the table, you greeted and bowed.

You sat next to Kei at the near end of the table and they were quite noisy. Well, everyone in the restaurant was a little noisy.

"How did you first meet?" a man asked.

He looked like he was at the same age as you but then again, looked different. You assumed that he's a cousin.

"Ah, why are you so rash? You'll never get a girlfriend like that!" a woman scolded.

"By the way, I'm Aunt Mari, he's Tada, they're cousins, well, obviously," she said with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Y/N," you told them.

"The two sitting beside them are my uncles and cousins. Uncle Jun, Yui and Yukine. The toddler is also my cousin, his name is Tatsuro. They're siblings. My grandparents aren't here," Kei explained to you.

"Anyways, where's the food? I'm starving!" a small girl complained.

"Yeah, me too," another girl said.

"Just wait, the food here is the best!" a man, the one Kei pointed as his uncle Jun, told them.

You felt like his mother was watching you closely, like she was still curious if you're good for her son. Nevertheless, she didn't say any bad remark.

You also noticed Kei's brother and he was definitely a lot more cheerful than Kei.

You looked around, observed them and you felt overwhelmed by everything.

Kei, on the other hand, also noticed how nervous you got and under the table, held your hand tightly.

"Relax, they're gonna love you," he whispered.

Aunt Mari seemed to have noticed and she just smiled at the two of you. The rest continued chatting and weirdly, even Kei didn't try to keep up in the conversation.

"I'm sorry, I also didn't know they'd come here," Kei told you.

"It's okay, really."

Moments later, food finally arrived- potatoes, steak, roasted chicken and lamb. They were mouthwatering, sure, but you were still nervous about everything.

"Hey, eat up!" the girl named Yui told you.

"Yeah, don't be shy."

"Thank you," you, ironically, said with a shy tone and a shy smile.

Before eating, Kei tighted his grip on your hand and reassured you, "It's alright, really, just trust me on this."

You looked at him and took a deep breath, "Okay."
