"Whuuuh? A runaway?"
Asami said, scowling.
"Yeah, a runaway girl. You haven't seen any around here, have you?"
"Nope. What are you going to do when you find one?"
"I just want to take her home with me."
"That's basically a crime, y'know...and pretty yikes."
She shook her head in a clear show of disgust.
Asami was a high school girl who worked part-time at the same convenience store. She has light brown skin and blond hair, and although she looked like an outrageous and wild teenager, she was actually incredibly guarded. I'd invited her out for dinner on a number of occasions, but she always tactfully declined.
"I'll be offering them a place to stay. Isn't that a nice thing to do?"
"Hah! Nice try. I know you've got an ulterior motive."
"That kinda thing just happens when a man and a woman are under the same roof, even if they don't plan to."
"Big yikes."
She brushed off the comment completely, taking it as a joke. Judging from her reaction, she really didn't seem to have any ideas to offer me. Her eyes gave everything away. All you had to do is was ask a question, and you could generally tell whether she knew something or not; it was quite handy.
"I see... So, no runaways here."
I acted disappointed, and Asami snorted at me.
"Do you really need a woman that bad?"
"I had seven of them before, and then I lost them all at once. I just need some company."
"Seven! One for every day of the week! That's mad funny!"
I was telling the truth.
She, however, clearly didn't believe me and cackled as she pulled some chicken strips out of the fryer.
"There is a new girl who's my age, but if you try to hit on her, I won't let you get away with it."
I listened to what Asami was saying and tilted my head in curiosity.
"A new girl?"
"Uh, what? You haven't heard?"
She looked in my direction as she continued loading freshly-fried chicken strips onto the food warmer.
"There's a new girl, Sayu-chaso. Her name's Sayu-chaso."
"Ohh... I think I remember seeing that name added on the attendance chart. You say she's your age?"
"Yep-yep. And let me warn you, she's cute AF."
"Cute AF, huh? Sounds fun."
Despite the fact that she'd been the one to originally call her that, Asami furrowed her brow at me for saying this.
"Lay a finger on her and I'll mess you up."
"Are you two close?"
"The closest. She's my soulmate."
Asami was friendly with everyone from the get-go. I remembered the way she'd immediately opened up to an older, part-time lady I couldn't stand.
"Huh..."
I gave her a half-hearted reply as I tried to imagine what this 'Sayu' that I'd never met was like.
If she was friends with Asami, she must be a bit wild, too; or maybe she was just a pushover. I hoped so; I could push her into things if that was the case.
I spent the rest of the day vaguely fantasizing about this new bit of information while I worked.
As I changed out of my work uniform at the end of my shift, I checked the shift schedule that was hung up on the wall.
