Before they even knew it, redith and Atlas already arrived on earth with the help of Austin. He had allowed them so ti together before he joined them.
With them wanting to catch up with each of their family mbers, they decided to have a date first before going on their separate ways to visit and have a mont with them.
"Where do you want to go?" Atlas asked, walking alongside redith with his arm wrapped around her shoulder.
"Hmm… since we woke up this morning, we didn't have a proper al," redith comnted, already looking left and right for a restaurant.
Atlas couldn't help but chuckle. With his laugh getting redith's attention, she looked at him and wondered why he was laughing.
"What? Is there sothing on my face?"
"Nothing," Atlas replied, giving her a kiss on top of her head. "It's just that you're cute, looking for a place to eat."
"Oh, co on… bread and coffee is not much of a yummy breakfast. We're on earth, why not we eat sothing different for a change?" redith suggested, Atlas pulling her closer to him as he agreed.
"Alright… what do you have in mind?"
redith didn't answer for a while. As she was quickly looking at one restaurant to another, finally one had caught her attention.
The restaurant was clearly Japanese. Kanji was written on the decorations and the custors were eating ran or sushi. Every ti they have new custors, employees would shout "Irrashaimase!" in unison, a greeting aning "welco."
With that, redith and Atlas looked at each other the mont they stopped walking for a mont.
"Have you tried Asian cuisine?"
Atlas shook his head. "Not so much… though I have tried so Chinese ones. The famous fried rice."
"Bah…" redith answered, shaking her hand as she thought of it as a usual an one would it when trying out Asian cuisine. "Too common. Let's have ran!"
Atlas arched a brow at her. "Well… have you had ran?"
"Only once. Not the cup noodles, alright. The authentic one. I tried the dipping ran, but their nu sounds interesting!"
redith pointed at the hanging nu of the restaurant that can be seen from where they are. They serve four kinds of ran. They have the pork ran, the spicy ran, the dipping ran, and the miso ran. As they also looked at the content of each ran, it did pique their interest.
"Want to try it out together?"
"Sure," Atlas answered, now holding her hand as they walked towards the restaurant. "It's always good trying out new things with you."
They were in a short queue. In the line, they are the third custors. Seeing as to how it is not rush hour, they have already waited for their turn to be led to their tables in just five minutes.
"Ooooh… I'm so excited!" redith said, already settling on her seat across Atlas'. He smiled at her as he watched how eager she is to have Japanese ran with him.
"Irrashaimase! Do you already have an order in mind?" The waiter asked and greeted them, redith already answering him in a heartbeat as if already having their food thought of before they even sat down.
"Yes! I'd have the miso ran, and he'd have the pork ran. Also, can we have an extra order of one tamago each and then chashu as well. Oh! We'll also want to taste the tempura--to share. And we'd both have mixed berries for drinks.
Thank you."
"Understood," the waiter said, already writing down their order. "We'll be right back with your food. For now, enjoy with our free appetizer, deep fried crunchy noodles."
"Ooh~!"
The waiter already left and redith started munching on the deep fried crunchy noodles. With Atlas tasting it as well, he found it satisfactory for a snack right before they have their big al. However, he could not help but comnt how redith was set on their food without even consulting him.
"You really decided for , huh?" he said, making redith playfully roll her eyes at him.
"Oh, shush… anything with at, you'd prefer. So I know you'd choose the pork ran. I chose a different ran for mine as well so that when you want to taste, you can. Also, tempura is good!," she answered, Atlas grinning at her from ear to ear.
"You do know
well," he agreed, asking her another question. "And… what is the thing that you said… 'tamago' and 'chashu'?"
"Oh! 'Tamago' is a Japanese word for egg. And 'chashu' is sliced pork at. I thought we'd have ordered that because you love at so much."
Atlas narrowed his eyes at her. "And will you be able to finish your food? Last night, you made
finish yours."
"Oh, I will be able to finish mine~! I'm starving! You'll see!"
redith got a big chunk of crunchy noodles. She reached out to Atlas across the table and fed him with it, Atlas gladly taking it from her.
"Have you already inford Sofia and your little brother that you're going to visit them?" Atlas asked, redith nodding to answer his question.
"Yes. I ssaged them while we were on the trip going here. Did you ssage Ace?"
"Yup. He's actually not expecting for , but he'd make sure to make ti for ."
Their drinks ca first. As the fruity scent of the mixed berry caught their attention, they both took a sip to taste, both of their expressions surprised with how sweet and fruity it tasted.
"Wow. This will really help balance the taste of the savory ran later. It's a good pair," redith comnted, putting it aside. "I'm not going to take another sip. I'm going to save it up until I finish my ran."
Atlas laughed. "You could order another glass, you know. You don't have to be so frugal with your money."
"Oh, it's quite pricey, the drinks," redith replied.
"You have
to pay for our food today. I insist," Atlas said, followed by a laughter when he saw that redith imdiately got her glass on the side, and took a longer sip of her drink.
"Then thank you very much for the treat, Atlas."
Before they even knew it, their food had already arrived. As they got their chopsticks on the side, they started eating and talking to each other before they seriously go on with their plans.
