*After School*

Tadano: "I'd like to go to a ramen shop."

Najimi & Komi: Ramen shop?

Tadano nodded.

Najimi: Sounds good! I'm hungry too. We could try the ramen shop across from the station.

Komi: It's unusual that you ask for that.

Tadano: "My dream is to go to a ramen shop."

Komi: 'What a strange dream you have, Tadano-kun.'

Agari approached them, with some overwhelming aura she has.

Agari: Hey, you guys want to go to a ramen shop? So it's my turn. 'If they are going to eat ramen, then it is my turn to take them to a ramen shop.'

Komi: E-eh? Agari-san?

They arrived at Ramen Darou.

Agari: Ta-da! This is the place I recomment, "RAMEN DAROU!"

Najimi: Oh, isn't that Darou shop famous here?

Agari: Yes!

Najimi and Komi looked at Tadano.

Najimi: But will you be okay? I heard their portions are quite a big and oily-

Tadano: "Let's go anyway."

Najimi & Komi: 'Immediate response!'

Agari is holding a notebook, reading something in it as she put a finger on her glasses (Looking like a genius perhaps.)

Agari: It's true, it has a very solid image. After all, I guess an ordinary person would probably drop by there alone and not in groups-

Komi: Agari-san? Agari-san?

She stopped and put her note book back in her bag, realizing what she started to do.

Agari: Ah! I'm sorry... When it comes to food, I talk too much...

Komi: I-I see. '-What a relief, she's the usual Agari-san.'

Najimi: '-What a relief, she's the usual Agari-chan.' These stores have their own rules, right? I saw it on television. Oh, I wonder if I should order the same as Agari-chan.

Agari turned and put a hand on Najimi's shoulder as she whispered.

Agari: Guilty.

Najimi: Eh? Guil? eh?

First rule of "Ramen Darou"
You should not speak.

Tadano-kun can pay.

The second.
You must buy the ticket fast and take a seat.

Komi: Oh S-Sorry...

for some reason, everyone in line waited for her.

Third.
While you wait, calmly you should pray to the owner for what you will get.

Najimi: 'This is the owner of the ramen shop, Gachinko...'

The Owner look at them.

Gachinko: what do you want with it?

Komi: 'So quiet.'

Agari: Caramelized Noodles full of Oil, with bit of Garlic and some Vegies.

Komi & Najimi: 'A chant?'

Gachinko: and you, miss?

Komi: Ah, um...

Komi stared quiet for a while since she doesn't what she will order.
A few moments later, the shop-keeper nodded.

Komi: 'Eh?'

After for a while, their food is served.
Agari and Najimi got the same ramen served.

Najimi: 'T-This is too much-'

Agari: Let's eat!

Komi and Tadano got Killer shine.

Komi: 'e-ehhhh? did he decide to serve this?'

Komi decided to stop thinking about it and tied her hair in a ponytail.
She prays and started to eat.

Komi: 'Oh! delicious!'

The way she eats, attracts people to watch her.

Komi: Thanks for the meal.

Najimi: wow!

The Shop-keeper brightens after Komi finish her meal.
Everyone is this staring at Komi, which she noticed and gave the bowl back, worried that something strange has happened.

Komi: U-uhm, Thanks for the meal, again...

She left and Tadano followed her out since he also finish his ramen.

The fourth rule of "Ramen Darou"!
After eating, you should leave the seat in the same position it was.

Najimi: 'Noodles got soggy...'

Agari: Thanks for the food!

*Some hour later*

Agari: I-It was delicious, wasn't it?

Najimi: Yes, but I ate too much...

Tadano: "Let's come back some time."

Komi: Of course.

Najimi: No, that was enough...

Komi: Eh? Najimi?

Agari: eh!?

Tadano: !?

But for some reason, it become a habit.
They went there again a week later.
