Love Syndrome (Day/Itt) - Book 2 (Authorized English Translation)

Chapter 23

Day turned to look at Itt a moment.

"Well, what do you think? Is there actually a drug like that?" Day asked in reply.

"Probably not," Itt said back.

"Then... if there's not one, it means that I'm joking. Do you really take every word I say seriously?" Day asked teasingly.

"How am I supposed to know when you're joking with me?" Itt argued back.

"Itt," Day called his lover's name.

"What?" Itt answered.

"I'm too lazy to cook for you tonight. Let's find some street food nearby to eat," Day said.

"Then, what do you want to eat?" Itt immediately asked. Day parked in an area full of many carts were set up outside to eat at night.

"Day, I want to eat some Wonton Noodles," Itt quickly nudged Day when he saw a Wonton Noodle shop not too far away. Day flashed him a slightly satisfied smile. If the past, Itt rarely ever ate street food like this. Itt was more likely to want to eat inside a fancy restaurant or the mall. After he began to date Day, Day would take him to eat at places like this. Itt started to get used to it and began to crave it more. Some of these outside shops had more delicious food than some of the famous restaurants.

"Hmm," Day replied before getting out of his car and walking towards the Wonton Noodle shop with Itt. The tables in front of the shop were fully occupied.

"Day, there are a lot of people here. There is nowhere for us to sit," Itt said.

"Then, should we go eat at another place?" Day asked. Itt immediately shook his head.

"No, I'm too lazy to walk around. Let's just eat here. I'm hungry," Itt said back. Day then looked to see if there were any empty tables.

"How many people, P'? I'll find a table for you," one of the employees walked over to ask Day and Itt immediately.

"Two," Day replied in a calm voice. The young boy nodded. He turned to look for a place for Day and Itt to sit before walking over to a table.

"Damn it, Flame. If you're full, get up and pay. I have another customer waiting to come into the restaurant," the young man walked over and said to the group of teenagers. All three of them were sitting down. They had already eaten their food, but they continued to sit and talk. They were not getting up.

"I won't get up. Why would I? It would be a waste of money since I am still eating," the young man named Flame said.

"Flame, you've stopped eating half an hour ago. Why are you still sitting down? Get up and let another customer have the seat," the manager, who was middle-aged man. The table was not far from the area where he was boiling noodles.

"I want to continue sitting here. What's wrong with that, uncle? If you don't have enough tables, let them go eat somewhere else," said the young man while turning to laugh at his friends. Itt frowned as soon as he heard this. He turned to look at Day a moment before pulling Day towards the teenagers' table.

"It's okay, P'. There are empty chairs at this table. Seniors can sit together with their juniors. If they want to sit and play, then they can stay here," Itt said.

"Uh... I'll find a new table for you. I think that would be better," said the young man, who was also the son of the shop owner, respectfully.

"It's okay. I think it would be nice to sit here too," Day said before sitting down in an empty chair. Itt sat at the end of the table, beside him. The three youths who were sitting at the table turned to look at each other in confusion.
