Chapter 60

"This coffee shop, huh..." Natsuki said while looking at the Tada Coffee shop signboard in front of us.

Natsuki and I currently in front of the Tada Coffee shop which I saw the day before yesterday. It was 9 AM right after the coffee shop opened. Therefore, there isn't any guess yet.

"You know this coffee shop, Natsuki-chan?" I wonderingly asked.

"I have heard the news about a princess who married an ordinary Japanese man. Naturally, the news didn't disclose who was the Japanese man. But there is no way the people who came here didn't recognize the Princess who runs this coffee shop with him." Natsuki explained.

"That's true. Well, I only came here because of my curiosity, though." I casually said.

"Don't worry, I heard the man is a professional barista and photographer. I never came here before, but Jii said the coffee and egg sandwich here was highly recommended." Natsuki said.

"Ou, then we must try it by all means," I said with an eager smile.

"Nn. I actually wanted to try it too." Natsuki nodded and smilingly said.

Natsuki and I opened the door and the bell above the door rang as a signed guest arrived.

"Welcome to Tada's Coffee Shop. Please take a seat wherever you want." A man and a blonde-haired girl simultaneously greeted us behind the counter. Then, Natsuki and I decided to sit in front of the counter.

"Here is the menu, please tell me if your order has decided." The girl said with a smile.

"Do you have a recommendation?" I asked.

"Yes, it's Tada's special coffee and Eggs sandwich." The girl answered.

"Then please one special coffee and two egg sandwiches. How about you, Natsuki-chan?" I said then asked Natsuki beside me.

"One special coffee and one egg sandwich please," Natsuki said.

"Understood, please wait for a while." The girl said with a smile. The girl promptly went behind the counter and helping her husband preparing our order. After a while, the fragrant smells of coffee entered our nose.

"Here is the coffee, please wait for a few minutes for the sandwich." The man brought the coffee and said. I opened my health mask then we take a sip right away since it has such a fragrant aroma that made us wanted to drink it immediately.

"Ah... This is good stuff." I nodded appreciatively and said.

"Indeed. Now I understand why Jii enthusiastically recommended this." Natsuki nodded approvingly and said.

"Thank you very much. It was my original recipe." The man said with a humble smile. The girl who was preparing the sandwich looks at us when she heard the praise.

"Ah! You are..." The blonde girl said with a surprised expression. Looks like she knew who was I. Obviously she knew, there is no way a member of Witenagamot didn't know.

"Yo! I heard about you from Alice. Don't worry, I am here just to try the rumored coffee shop. How about introduces yourself?" I casually said.

"Y-yes, Lord Kithara. My name is Teresa de Larsenburg or Tada Teresa. This is my husband, Tada Mitsuyoshi." Teresa lowered her head and introduced herself and her husband.

"Eh? Yes, my name is Tada Mitsuyoshi, please to meet you, Lord Kitahara." Even though he didn't know who am I, he lowered his head and introduced himself.

"Hehe... Don't be that nervous. As I said, I only come here to see the rumored coffee shop. Well, the coffee was very good." I smilingly said.

"Nn. Now I want to try the sandwich too. Is it done?" Natsuki nodded affirmatively and said. Looks like she was very eager to try the sandwich.

"Yes, it will be done in a min," Teresa answered.

Like she said, a min after that she presented the egg sandwich we ordered. Without further ado, we eat the sandwich since we didn't eat breakfast at home on purpose.

"Delicious... I think Kousei will love this since Eggs sandwich was his favorite." I said. This time Natsuki didn't say anything and just nodded and silently enjoying the sandwich.

"Please make two more for us to eat it somewhere," I ordered more for eating it while watching the baseball game.

"Yes, right away!" Teresa promptly answered.

While waiting for the order to finish I look around the coffee shop. Behind us, there is a board on the wall between two tables. Many beautiful photos displayed there.

"Hey, I heard you were a photographer too. And those photos are pretty good." I said.

"Yes thank you very much."

"Hmmm... how about you become my photographer whenever I need one. For example for a family photo or wedding." I smilingly said.

"Its an honor, Lord Kitahara. Please tell me the time and place then I will come as fast as possible." Tada answered politely with a joyful smile.

Even though he didn't know me, he understands I must be a very powerful individual by how his wife acted when she saw me. Naturally, he was extremely happy getting praised also he can be a photographer for someone like that in the future.

We exchanged our contact information, so I can call him whenever I need a photographer. After a while, Teresa came bringing two boxes of Eggs sandwich. Teresa said there is no need to pay but I pay for it anyway to respect how delicious the sandwich and coffee.

Natsuki and I say goodbye and head to the next destination which is a baseball field in Jounan Academy middle school division.

When we arrived, because I didn't know where is the baseball field I decided to ask a black-haired boy with an athletic body who wore the baseball outfit of Jounan Academy.

"Hey, could you show me where is the baseball field?" I asked.

"Sure thing, I'm also going there. It's this way." The boy answered as he walks.

"Are you the main member of the team?" I curiously asked the boy while Natsuki and I followed him.

"Yes! Even though I don't look like that, I actually quite good at this game." The boy said with a humble smile.

"Someone who said that usually an Ace who has played as Japanese representative before," I smirked and said. When I said that the boy looks surprised as if wondering how did I know.

"Oh, looks like it's accurate, Izumi," Natsuki said.

"Haha... It's true I have played as a Japanese representative before, but I don't know if I was called Ace." The boy caressed the back of his head and said with a joyful smile.

"Does that mean I am currently talking with future Japan's ace?" I said with a smirk.

"Hehe... please don't praise me that much. We won't know what happens in the future after all. But if there is a chance, I determined to take it. Because baseball is my passion." The boy determinedly said.

"*Chuckled* You sound like a protagonist in sports manga. Anyway, what's your name?" I asked.

"Oh, I forgot to introduce my self. My name is Kusanagi Godou, a middle school sophomore in this academy and a regular player of the baseball team." Godou said and introduced himself with a smile.

"Hee... Well, my name is Kitahara Izumi, just a high schooler. This girl is Minamiya Natsuki." I smirked after hearing his name then introduced my self.

"Nn." Natsuki merely nodded affirmatively.

Then we're talking about which highschool I am from while walking. It seems my high school has one of the strongest teams in baseball high school division. Godou enthusiastically said how he had a dream to bring his high school team to be the strongest one in Japan.

"Hey, Kusanagi. I have a piece of advice for you for this training game. Be calm and don't make a rash decision or your dream won't come true." I mysteriously said.

"What do you mean by that?" Godou asked curiously.

"Well, my intuition said something would happen to you in this game. And my intuition was never wrong, right Natsuki-chan?" I said then asked Natsuki beside me.

"Indeed. Izumi's intuition was terrifyingly accurate, so you better remember his advice." Natsuki nodded and said.

"Sure then! Thanks for the advice, senpai. I'm going now, wish me luck!�� Godou waved his hand and smilingly said.

---

We watched the training match between Jounan Academy versus Akasaka middle school. From the information I heard when people talking about it, both teams are very strong. Both are one of the three kings in Tokyo.

When the game is halfway before finished, an incident almost happens. The score was equal. Godou, who was in the third base, decided to make a rash decision. He directly runs to the last base even though the ball already passed to the second base and it was going to be passed to the last base.

Godou, who saw the ball almost reaching the home plate before he decided to jump to reach it first. But maybe because he remembers my advice, he changed it to slide to the home plate. Fortunately, he was able to reach the base with his feet before the ball and get a point for his team.

The game finished with Jounan Academy as a winner. After the game finished Godou come to me and said thanks for my advice. Because he almost decided to jump so his hand will reach the home plate first.

Godou also asked me to be his friend and I answered with yes.

I invited him to eat with us before going back home but he declined because his sister likely waiting for him at home. So we exchanged our contact information and head back home.

Maoxing and Mei Li have been waiting for us when we arrived.

"Boss, I think it would take a month to complete the renovation," Maoxing said.

"A month huh. Guess I will take a model job and interview before that to advertise the restaurant. I will head back to Izu tomorrow so in the meantime you and Mei Li can stay in Natsuki's house. It's fine right?" I asked Natsuki.

"Nn. With you two here, Jii won't get lonely after all." Natsuki answered.

"Good, then I expect the restaurant will be good when finished, understand?" I said.

"Yes, boss!"
