My Bothersome Life 43 Eating Lunch

"It's ok, it'll be my treat since you're new to this school anyways." The student replied.

"Then I'll just get the strawberry milk with cream buns and potato chips!"

"I thought you never used an vending machine before" A wave of confusion and suspicion came onto the student's face.

"Well I am from the third district after all, but I usually buy these things from the convenient stores." I said sheepishly.

I couldn't say that I used the vending machine very often in the past life.

The student gave me my custard cream bun and strawberry milk. When I took a bite, I felt like I was swallowed by happiness. Nothing beats junk food once in a while~.

However, all of the sudden something destroyed that precious moment of my savourment of junk food. A hand grabbed onto my shoulder with an ominous vibe attached to it.

A scary pair of ocean blue eyes looked toward the delicious cream bun that I was eating and the unopened strawberry milk in my hands. Thankfully the student didn't pa.s.s me my potato chips yet so it made me look more modest.

"I was a bit hungry, so I decided to eat a snack while looking around the school." As I pretended to not know Luke's anger.

"Where did you get the money? From what I know, you don't have any money with you from the third district." Luke asked suspiciously.

"Well-"

"Actually, I bought it for her..." The student answered confidently.

Maybe I looked like I was in a lot of trouble (not that I wasn't), I smiled back in thanks for the support.

Luke smiled back hostilely to the student, "I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. My name is Luke de Roselia and I give my thanks to you for treating my partner well. However, since we will be having lunch soon we will have to give our farewells here."

The student looked like he was almost pitying me. One cream bun and strawberry milk from a vending machine was all that took to make Luke mad.

It was fine when I ordered the same things from a restaurant with Sh.e.l.ly and Helena, but not from places like a vending machine.

Sigh. I did understand it was because of the pride he had in his reputation of his family name, but it did go overboard many times including this incident.

Luke grabbed my hand to escort me to the room that the principle provided to enjoy our lunch. I waved back to the student to signal that there was nothing to be done and got dragged to that room to have my lunch.

As usual, this room looked like it was the fanciest place in the school. It was probably used for the most important occasions with the crystal chandelier and wine gla.s.ses filled with juice.

I sat down on the cotton white chair while eyeing the usual gourmet meals that I would be served in the first district.

After all the dishes were present on the table, the staff left the room to give us some privacy.

I ate half of my plate heartlessly while thinking about my delicious cream bun and strawberry milk that Luke made me throw away while he dragged me to this room.

"Are you not feeling hungry today?" Luke asked.

I really wondered why I wasn't feeling that hungry today.

"You should eat because we're not eating dinner until we finish our jobs for today." Luke continued.

Then maybe you shouldn't have taken my food away!

"Then maybe you can return my snack back that you threw away along the way here." I said while smiling in anger.

"You think that I don't know about your hidden stock of junk food in our room." Luke replied.

I was shocked that he figured out. I was sure I hid them really well.

"I'll make a deal with you. I'll buy you the same snacks later once the day is over. So don't eat them in school when we're here as a guest while representing our school."

I guess Luke was being lenient today. But I knew that what he really meant was that he would buy me the gourmet version of the same snacks while what I wanted was the familiar taste from my past life.

However, I knew that this would be the best deal that I'd get.

"Fine. I agree!"

I quickly finished the rest of plate and rushed out of the room.
