Chapter 113 The Juice Shop
They went past the town square, towards the marketplace.
Throughout the journey, Rey kept bringing up random topics, and Alicia didn't quite understand why.
For example; things like her dreams, her thoughts on certain guys in their class.
The breaking point for Alicia was when he asked about what she thought about Billy.
She actually considered him to be an imposter at some point—maybe Justin disguised as Rey.
But on their way out of the Royal Estate, they saw Justin hanging out with his friends.
It couldn't have been him.
Stil, Alicia wasn't sure this was really Rey. The source of this content nov(el)bi((n))
To exercise caution, she asked him questions that only Rey would know—questions involving things they discussed in the Library or in his room.
"How many cats do I have in my grandparents' house again?" Was a good example.
And every time... EVERY SINGLE TIME...
"Over thirty-seven, right?"
... Rey knew the answers to her queries.
It had to be him!
'So why is he being so weird?' She wondered to herself.
Perhaps this whole surprise thing had him all worked up. That was Alicia's excuse for him.
The two of them eventually went to a shop that sold "The best Fruit Juice around!" according to Rey.
She didn't know he had been exploring much of the city, especially since he never told her about it.
'I would have liked to know... or even come...' Alicia's thoughts trailed.
But she quickly shrugged it off.
The Shop was more like a restaurant, with tables and chairs set in multiple places.
For a place meant to be the best, it was scanty at best. A few men were seated in certain corners here and there, but there weren't more than seven of them.
They all had big jugs of juice in front of them, but the liquid contents were almost full to the brim, showing that they had barely been touched.
'Is Rey really sure about this place?' Alicia wondered to herself as she scanned her surroundings.
She saw a few men taking sips, but they were hardly making pleasant expressions.
Instead, their hardened faces seemed distracted.
Some even stared at her a few times.
"U-um, Rey... I don't really feel comfortable here..." She whispered into his ears.
She just had a bad vibe about the place and worried for the safety of both of them.
However, he just casually shrugged it off.
"Don't worry. It's always like this. There's really nothing to be uncomfortable about."
The way he waved off her concern felt unlike Rey.
... Almost too insensitive.
He was someone she could be honest with, and she thought he saw her as the same.
But now, Alicia didn't know anymore.
"H-here you are. Two strawberry shakes."
As the waitress brought a tray that held two medium cups of the same liquid, Alicia felt it was too fast.
'Don't they take longer to make these things...?' She pondered.
She gave Rey his own strawberry shake, to which he didn't respond to with any smile or words of courtesy.
He just kept looking at her like a creep.
'I really don't like this...'
Alicia had the mind to leave the place and return to the library to finish her book, but she decided to simply wait for the surprise.
Perhaps this was simply a manifestation of the vestiges of feelings that she still had for the boy before her.
The waitress proceeded to give Alicia her cup when, all of a sudden—
"A-ah—!"
The waitress slipped, causing the cup to nearly topple over and splash its contents all over Alicia's casual outfit.
Before it could do so, though...
~WHOOOSH!~
... Rey swooped in like the wind and caught the cup , shifting Alocia's chair so not even a drop of the splattered juice reached her.
The waitress, unfortunately, wasn't saved.
"A-ahh... I deeply apologize. I'm sorry... so so sorry..." She nearly sobbed as she remained on the ground.
Alicia thought she looked pitiful, and her powerless state struck a chord within her.
"N-no, it's fi—"
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING?!" Rey's voice suddenly echoed, exuding sheer rage.
Alicia had never seen him this way.
"YOU NEARLY SPILLED THE CUP! YOU NEARLY STAINED ALICIA! ARE YOU RETARDED?!"
Hearing those words proceed out of his lips, Alicia found her heart in a deep state of shock
And then, the thought surfaced in her mind again.
'I-Is that really... Rey?'
