Chapter 76: Whatever Happens, Happens
Hand in hand with Umi, we entered a thrift store.
The store was located on the first floor of a small building, sandwiched between two larger buildings. As soon as I opened the door, the smell of wood permeated my nose. The smell reminded me of an old closet.
“Let’s look for some shirts… Oh, how much money did you bring, Maki?”
“Mom gave me twenty thousand yen for this…”
It was a lot of money for a high school student to bring, but when I told my mom about the date and this shopping trip, she immediately gave me two ten thousand yen bills. She gave me my allowance like usual too.
Because of that, I probably had enough money to buy a whole outfit as long as the stores we went to had reasonable prices.
“Umi~ What do you think about this one? This seems like something a boy would like~”
“Military-styled… Nah, Maki is quite short, he’ll just look childish if he were to wear it.”
“Really? I think he’ll look cute though.”
