Why does she have to?

This is the problem right here.

“What might be the reason for someone not being able to look at anyone face to face?

If the person does not have Enochlophobia.”

If I had not asked her the question, I would have a peaceful journey.

I hate myself for this.

Few hours back,

At the airport,

All the passengers are in a hurry.

They are walking to and fro, some of them have got their tickets and luggage checked.

Many families and friends have come to see off and pick up their dear ones.

Some individuals visit a custom free shop and buy some imported articles.

The sweepers keep on polishing the floor after every hour.

The passengers are getting notified of everything about their flight through the speaker.

There are many aeroplanes.

Some are buzzing high overhead, some are taking off, and some are landing on the ground.

Many of the individuals are quietly sitting at the waiting desk for the arrival of their aeroplane.

Many foreigners are going to leave and are visiting the country.

The police and the officials of the Excise Department are keeping an eye on every passenger.

They are alert and active.

Some of the passengers are holding magazines, newspapers to pass their time.

"Konnichiwa, Nihon.

It is 10 a.m.

And you are watching NHK news.

I am your news host, Takao Kyoko.

I do hope you are having a good time."

While arranging the papers," First news of the day, according to our sources,

Mr Yamamoto Susumu is going to Thailand for the new game development. It is going to be the first-ever collaboration between any two gaming companies.

We support you, Mr Yamamoto Susumu.

And let us move on to another news."

"Ah, I made into the news.

Thanks, Mom."-Yamamoto Susumu(Susumu means to make progress) talks with himself while working on his laptop.

"Why does she have to make it first news?

She should not have tricked others by showing, as if she was arranging the papers on her hands only to make me into the news.

I do not like being the centre of attention, and she knows that."-Yamamoto Susumu isn't happy with his mom.

"Ah, すみません/Sumimasen (Excuse me)"-A girl speaks with him.

He does not pay attention and keeps on typing.

He fixes his glasses.

She tries to speak in Japanese, "Excuse me, Would you mind me sitting.."

Yamamoto Susumu interrupts her and speaks in Thai, "You can sit over there. I do not like being disturbed while working."

She gets impressed with him, "Oh my, you do know how to speak in Thai?"

Yamamoto Susumu does not chat with her and keeps on working.

She asks him doubtfully, "Wait a minute! How did you know I am a Thai."

Yamamoto Susumu pauses working, as he could not focus any more thanks to her.

"Well, because of your dressing style.

Now would you mind leaving me all alone?

So I can focus on my work."-Yamamoto Susumu replies in Thai.

Yamamoto Susumu openes his laptop and continues his work.

She does not speak any word and sit next to him.

Yamamoto Susumu does not speak even though he was not happily noticing her still sitting near him.

Yamamoto Susumu has not seen her face as he was not interested.

She keeps on staring.

"Hold up, miss."-Susumu replies in Thai after realising she has come very close to him.

*Reminder, they are talking in Thai.*

"I am sorry. If I am disturbing you.

But I will get bored if I do not have someone besides me to talk."-She replies.

"Do you have a cell phone, Miss?"-Susumu asks her face to face.

She answers with a smile, "Yes. Who does not have a cell phone still on these days?"

"Then, miss. Open the cell phone and talk with any of your friends on the list.

You know what? You can video call them too."-Susumu annoyingly replies her.

She replied, "I guess you are an introvert like 60 per cent of Japanese out there.

Anyhow, I have to talk with someone face to face physically.

Therefore, I am going to acquaint myself. My name is Wang Mali, not Malee as Malee means flower and Mali means Jasmine."

Susumu interrupts her again.

"Oh, it is nice to meet you, Miss Malee.

Now would you please leave me alone?"

"It is not Malee.

My name is Mali."-She responds.

"Why are you keep on pestering me?"-Susumu interrogates while facing her.

She does not talk.

She gets nearer.

Susumu gets nervous.

She takes off his glasses.

"What is it?"-Susumu questions her.

"Even without glasses on, you are still not my type."-Mali replies and put back his glasses.

Yamamoto Susumu fixes his posture.

He asks, "Are you trying to recreate the scene from Wotaku ni Koi wa Muzukashii/ Wotakoi: Love is Hard for Otaku(it's an anime)?"

"Oh, it seems we've found a topic.

So, why do not we begin to talk about some recent anime?"- Wang Mali offers.

"No, thanks."-Yamamoto Susume returns her offer.

Mali tries to speak with him but suddenly,

The loudspeaker, "All Nippon Airways 5955 operated by Thai Airways International

BOEING 777-300ER to Thailand is now ready for boarding, with all the passengers for this flight proceed to gate no 42."

"Oh, it seems I have to take a leave."-Yamamoto happily answers her.

"Wait, I am also boarding on the same plane.

Let us go together."-Mali replies.

"Why does she have to be attending the same flight as I am?

Could not she travel to another country?"-Yamamoto smiles while having such thoughts and leaves together.

It took me more than three hours to complete it as I have never focused much on the surroundings so, it was inconvenient for me.

So, I look into many sources from google to make it easier.

I hope this chapter did catch your attention.

Re edited on 12th December; I have re-edited the chapter by adding question and monologue of the Male lead to catch your attention, I hope I was successful.

See you in next chapter.

To be continued.
