...I am a college working student, my name is Shinzo Haruki. I am 18 years old, a freshman. I just started college last month. Enrolling was a disaster—it could've been better if I hadn't enroll...
I woke up at 5am. It wasn't such a good night's sleep, but it's better than the one I had last night.
I started putting up weights, counting until I reached 50. Felt tired after that, but I went to the bathroom and cleaned myself.
After bathing, I made myself a toast with egg inside. It is satisfying, one of my favorite foods.
As I finished eating breakfast, I quickly prepare and put on my uniform for my part time job.
The time run... I opened the door, seeing the light spread out like a butter.
...Seems like I haven't gotten outside like 2 days—Is it because I had fun enjoying my weekend?...
I step out, felt a relief of freshness.
I found myself worrying about how am I supposed to commute.
Moreover, I just remembered that subway station exists. I went to a nearby subway to commute.
...Finally, I am here. Here to waste 10 hours shift of my life. It is fair though. I work, I receive. But none of that makes me rich...
...I receive 9,600 yen per day. Which is not bad for a single person who lives alone. As I waste my time here in the convenience store...
A customer entered the convenience store with his charming girlfriend.
The customer's girlfriend is wrapping her hands around his arm. She is wearing a bracelet. The guy also has one
I do my usual work, scanning their things. Suddenly, when I pick the next item. I found 2 packs of condoms. I look down to hide my flustered face.
As I continue to scan their items...
...Finally, I am done...
"Anything else?" I said Confidently, hoping the customer would buy more items.
"Uh, may I ask something?" The customer said. He express it nervously.
"Of course, please go ahead with your question." I replied. Smiling at them.
"What time does the store close?" The customer ask. Perhaps they're plotting something?
"Let's go, babe."
"Forget that" the customer's girlfriend said. clinging to his arm tightly.
The girl teases her boyfriend for a while—staring at them makes me jealous.
"I hope you both can resolve this quickly" as I professionally said, Hiding my furious face. They both apologies, leaving after that.
...Sigh... Finally...
...Perhaps, I need someone by my side?...
...My 10 hours shift is finally over, and I can finally rest. What should I do now?...
The time is 3 pm, I am considering on what could I do after 10 hours of working.
...Precisely, there's a new coffee shop nearby—I heard...
Leaving the convenience store afterwards. Trying to figure out how to socialize again. How am I supposed to interact with people again?
...I'm just overthinking...
I breathe in and let out a relaxed sigh to calm myself—Hopefully it would do something.
I walk towards the coffee shop called 'shiz' cafe', And realize it's just a couple steps away from the convenience store. I expect it to be more further.
...I should probably try their coffee?
It seems interesting...
I entered the cafe shop, excitedly...
The chapter ends...
