Reunion Under The Apple Tree -- A DDLC Fanfiction

Chapter 5 : Our time 2.0

I woke up early in the morning. I offered Sayori a date yesterday and she seemed to be very excited about it. I am going to keep my promise and not disappoint her. I have a feeling she genuinely liked me. She just had no idea how romantic relationships work.

After having breakfast, I decide to wake her up. I walk towards Sayori's room and knock on he door softly. There is no response.

Apparently Sayori is still asleep. I was about to burst in and wake her up by myself when I realized that she is a girl and that is her room. Isn't it a breach of privacy if I enter her room without her permission? I wanted to impress her today, not to put her off by my impoliteness. I knock on the door with slightly more force.

'Sayori! Wake up! You said you wanted to go out with me today!' I said towards her door.

'Can I sleep for some more? Your bed is so comfortable.' I heard a sleepy voice coming from her room. Yup that is definitely typical Sayori.

'Sayori, it's 10am now. Come on, don't leave me hanging.' I said. Then I realized I was talking to Sayori. Shouldn't have made that joke.

'Stop joking about hanging, you meanie.' Sayori complained, still with a sleepy tone. An idea suddenly came to my mind.

'Sayori, I have cookies for you!' I shouted. 'Too bad if you don't wake up I'm gonna eat them all!'

I heard a bumping noise in her room. Sayori literally ejected herself out of her bed and opened the door in a flash. 'Cookies? Where?' She asked.

'Patient, Sayori. Brush your teeth first.' I instructed.

As Sayori is brushing her teeth, I walk to the kitchen to fetch some of my chocolate chip cookies. I have to keep my promise.

As Sayori comes out of the toilet, I hand her the cookies. 'Here, take that.' I offered. 'I am a man that keeps my promises.'

'Uwaaa~ A13 thank you so much!' Sayori said excitedly as she tear open the package. 'Its chocolate chip, my favorite type of cookie. You're the best!'

While she was swallowing the cookies with extreme speed, I decided to tell her my plan.

'So Sayori. How about we go and visit the city centre today? You can learn more about metropolises in my reality and I can buy you some clothes. You are wearing my clothes now and it doesn't fit perfectly.' I said.

'Mmmmmm, hmmmmph.' Sayori can't speak while munching on her cookies, but her nod confirms that she agrees with my plan.

After Sayori finished her cookies, We packed our belongings and proceeded to leave. I opened the door and gestured for Sayori to leave first. After she left my house, I stepped out of my front door and locked it.

I take Sayori to the nearest high speed metro station. The high speed metro is the fastest, albeit more expensive, way to travel from the suburbs area to the city centre. I use two transportation cards to pay for both of us. I originally considered giving Sayori a spare card but given her clumsy trait she is probably going to lose it within an hour.

As we step into the train, a thought flashed through my mind.

'Sayori, mind the gap.' I reminded. I was too late. Sayori already tripped and fell onto the ground.

'Ouch!' Sayori groaned. 'It hurts.'

I give her a hand and help her up. Fortunately she didn't suffer from any external injuries.

As the train begin to accelerate, I was reminded of my date with Monika. I reach out my hand and grab Sayori by her arm, carefully so that I don't accidentally dislocate her shoulder whilst preventing her from falling over again.'
