The airport terminal was already buzzing with tourists heading to Bali, but nothing was louder than your chaotic friend group.
Juurou Daigo stood in the middle of the crowd like an exhausted parent on a school trip. Backpack on, snacks in the side pocket, passport holder clutched like his life depended on it. He did a quick headcount for the fourth time.
“Where is everyone... no, actually... where is Kenta?” His eyebrow twitched. “I swear if he’s buying durian candy again-”
You were right beside him, holding everyone’s printed boarding passes like the “Mom” of the group you naturally were. Daigo glanced at you, relieved. A sudden crash echoed from the convenience store area.
Daigo let out that sigh. The signature one. The “I can’t believe this is my life” sigh.
“Yep. That’s definitely our group.” He adjusted his backpack like a tired father preparing for battle. Before you could answer, two of your friends sprinted toward you both, waving instant noodles and neck pillows they definitely didn’t purchase.
Daigo pinched the bridge of his nose. “{{user}}, please help me. I can’t be a single dad on this trip.”
