COTE: Husband Hunt

A problem

Sadly, the boys ate all of my gifts for the teachers and chairman. You can't just deny them the sweets if you ask them, right?

Then, we got a tour of the school to know about what is where. And thankfully, there is a Japanese-English translator in my phone that is much better than Google Translate. Lucky me.

After that, we were free to go, and I decided to buy some groceries before heading to the dorms.

The convenience store was just in front of the dorms, so I decided to take some essentials right now and everything later. I haven't slept for about a day afterall.

As soon as I entered the store, I found Tsundere-chan and Ayanokoji shopping together. Ayanokoji is a cute awkward guy. He is one of the three guys I have my eyes on in the class.

Should I approach them or just do my shopping by myself? Would it be rude to not greet them since they are my classmates?

I decided to greet them.
"Konichiwa."

Ayanokoji said Konichiwa too, but Tsundere-chan totally ignored me.

"..."

Ah! Whatever!

I picked up sanitary pads, some chocolates, a cabbage, a wheat bag, a rice bag, toothbrush, Chili poweer, turmeric powder, detergent,...

Figured that there are no Ayurvedic toothpaste and soaps here.

"Say Ayanokoji, do you know which brand has the most natural toothpaste, soap, hair oil and shampoo?"

"...I don't know."
Wow, so he knows English.

"And you?"

"Don't talk to me."

"..."

T-this girl! Fine! I won't talk to you!

I started picking up each and every product to see the ingredients behind them, and it totally didn't work. Because everything was written in Japanese!

Uggghh!

Whatever! I will just pick up the cheapest and be done with it!

Cheapest, cheapest, cheapest, cheapest, free?

"Why is there free goods?"
"Maybe for those who spent all their points?"
Ayanokoji said, in English. I guess I can talk to him perfectly.

Tsundere-chan didn't say anything.
Who cares!?

"Say Ayanokoji... Is 100K too much?"
"Honestly, I don't know. I have never done shopping by myself."
"I see. I don't know how many months 100K will last for me."

"Why? Won't we get 100,000 next month too?"
"Are you an idiot? There wasn't anything like that written in the booklet. Money doesn't grow on trees."

And both of them started staring at me like I said something strange.

"Do you mean we wouldn't get 100,000 next month?"
Tsundere-chan asked, in perfect English. I guess I can talk to one more person without any problem, however rude she may be.

"Do you even need to ask? 100K×40= 4M. 4M×12= 48M. 48×12= 576M. 5.76M dollars a year on students' allowance is ridiculous. Why would they give us so much? Then what about the salaries of the staff? Then maintaining such a big school. 100K yen must be our initial deposit, like a lumpsum on entering the school. Where did you even get the idea that you will get 100K every month?"

I sighed at their stupidity. I guess Ayanokoji is rejected too. My husband can't be this stupid.

I guess I wasted my time talking to him.

I went to the counter, paid it, and started to go to my home for the next three years.

"Isn't it heavy? I can carry one bag."
Ayanokoji offered, but "No thank you."

I don't want idiots knowing my room number. And carrying 4 Kgs is nothing.

I got my room key card from reception, and headed to rest for a bit. It's on 7th floor, room no. 704. Apparently, 1-4 floors are for boys and 5-8 floors are for girls. I am surprised that it is a co-dorm.

Gas, water and electricity are free. I guess the government is spending a lot on this school.

I got off from the lift as I arrived on the seventh floor. The key card actually worked to open the lock. Just like Hitman hehe.

As I entered the room, it was okayish. There is an AC but I doubt I will use it. Hmm, oh! It is an all-weather AC. Thank god I don't have to buy a heater for the winters.

I put my shopping bags on the floor, and headed to the bathroom.

And there, I encountered a major problem.

There is no jet spray!
