Chapter 77: Confusion

We went to the dining table, and he was there, as expected, waiting for the maids to serve his breakfast. He's staring right at me. He continues to stare at me and smile at me. I try not to look at him. Please keep your gaze away from me. His stare makes me feel nervous. He said, "Hey Katsumi, you look lovely today." "Oh-oh, you're serious? Thank you very much "I stated. For you, I'm actually dressed like this. For Bara's sake, I need to keep my cool. "You are running late. I assumed you ate your breakfast early, so I arrived early, and you were already with Bara. Do you guys already have something urgent to do thus early in the morning? "He inquired. Bara comes here very early because she has something important to tell him.

 "This early in the morning, we don't have anything important to accomplish. We should start with breakfast "I stated. We take a seat beside him at the dining table and wait for the maid to bring us our breakfast. "Bara arrived quite early because she has something essential to tell you," I explained. Takahashi is eating his breakfast and paying attention to what I'm saying. "Oh, she's got a story to tell about me? Is it regarding paperwork or reports? I apologize for not finishing those tasks, Bara. Maybe after we eat breakfast, I'll do it, "he stated. As usual, he is clueless. "No, she isn't referring to reports. It's also not about paperwork. It's a completely unrelated subject." I explained.

 "Tell him what you want to say, Bara," I said. Bara stood up, which surprised everyone, including the maids, who were all staring at her. I didn't expect her to be so brave and self-assured. "Are you okay, Bara? Do you want to use the restroom?" Takahashi inquired. She slams the table and turns to face Takahashi. Oh my goodness, she's really trying her hardest and overdoing things. "Takahashi, I'd like to be completely honest with you. I can't hide it any longer, and I want you to know that I'm serious about this! Mr. Takahashi, I really like you! Please give me a date! Will you be my boyfriend? "She stated. Hey! It is far too early to pose that question! "EHHH!!" we screamed.

I said, "Wait." I didn't expect things to turn out this way. I didn't expect her to ask that question right now. She stares at me, and the way she looks at me makes me think she's not doing so well. "What exactly is it, Katsumi?" she inquired. This is quite rapid, and I believe that time is an important aspect in love. "I believe you are moving too quickly right now. I believe you should take things more slowly. Take it easy and enjoy every moment "I stated. She simply smiles and gives me a thumbs up. "Yes, I believe you are correct, but I prefer it this way. I want him to be as aware of my feelings as possible. Takahashi, you don't have to respond right away because I'll wait.", she said.

Takahashi has a perplexing expression on his face and is staring at me. "Wait, I'm sorry, but I'm not sure what you're talking about. What exactly is going on here? Is this a joke? Please explain, and do you know about this, Katsumi? I'm confused "he stated I understand how perplexing it is, especially considering we communicate too much and he will only find out tomorrow that I am backing a girl who wishes to court her. "As you can see, Bara, my diamond knight, wants you to be your lover and wants you to know how she feels about you as soon as possible. You don't have to be concerned right now because she won't hurry you and is prepared to wait for you to reciprocate her feelings, so all you have to do is be yourself "I explained myself.

"No, that doesn't mean I don't want to be with you, Bara," he explained, "but please, I just lost my wife and my kid." Bara took his hand in hers and said "I understand, and you don't have to be concerned because I can wait. Takahashi. I'll wait till you've recovered and are ready to love again. Please give my feelings some thought. I guarantee I'll make you feel the love I have reserved just for you, "she stated. He keeps staring at me, as if he's expecting a different response from me. He's probably trying to figure out what's wrong with me after what happened last night. Takahashi, if I know Bara feels this way about you, I won't do anything like that.

He maintains his composure, yet he continues to stare at me. We simply consume our meals and try to enjoy them. For the time being, I believe that is all I have to say. What matters is that Bara has already expressed her feelings to Takahashi. This is a great way to start the day. All I have to do now is ignore Takahashi and everything will be forgotten. All I can do now is hope that my feelings for him will fade away. I'm not sure how I'll forget about him, but I suppose there is a way. It was a really dangerous method to simply forget about him. I'm still debating whether or not I should go ahead with it. Is it worthwhile to give it a shot? I'm not sure. If I do it, it will have a significant impact on my life, and it is a very important topic that will require several days of consideration. I'm completely hopeless.

I complete my meal and decide to go to the garden since the silence around the dining table is oppressive, and Takahashi's look makes me uneasy. I get to my feet and bow to them. "Thank you for the delicious breakfast. I'm leaving right now. I'm just going to relax in the garden and get some fresh air. For the time being, please enjoy the food "I stated. I walk away, intending to go to the garden, but I realize Takahashi has also stood up and is following me.
