Chapter 28: Kohinata-san and the day of secret. (Latter half.)

After arriving at the park, two of us sat on the swing.

“……That’s why, Misaki’s mood hasn’t improved at all. Did she, say anything at all?”

“Misaki-chan you say……? No, she’s being cute same as always……”

Since there’s no sound nearby at all, I could clearly hear her muttering. The temperature outside is a kind of cool and refreshing for me who’s lightly clothed, the wind is barely blowing. But it must be cold for Kohinata-san surely, she has been hugging her shoulder all the time after all.

“My bad, I’d lend you a jacket if I had one but……”

“Eh? ……Ahh no not at all, it’s not cold. Rather it’s kinda hot out here, actually no, it’s nothing.”

She’s acting and speaking weirdly, but well that’s how she is usually. Seems like she has sober up a little bit.

Kohinata-san puts her index finger on her chin, while muttering unーnnn.

“Well there’s one thing, I notices that her movements today seems to be more sluggish than normal, yes. I thought that she might be sleepy or something at that time.”

“I see……”

“You don’t have any ideas as what caused it at all?”

“Well if I know I’ll do a dogeza right then and there but……”

“Fuhihi, dogeza you say.”

Kohinata-san giggles, and cast her eyes downward. When I saw her beautiful face profile, I can’t help but wonder what colors her eyes are hiding behind those bangs.

Kohinata-san, those lolicon guys, that suspicious person, and then there’s aniki…… Everyone I met has such glistening eyes. They’re different from the glaring eyes that I used to see, even if I saw those glistening eyes just for a moment but they can calm my heart down. The world I’m living in right now is different from my past one, It’s certainly changing, because I thought that it is so.

“Uーnnn, Misaki-chan, what should we do I wonder……”

From Kohinata-san’s perspective, I’m just a thoughtless man that storms into her room at midnight to consult about his daughter. But even so, not only she listen to me without making an annoyed face at all, she also sincerely thinking about it too.

If the roles were reversed then, I wonder what would I do.

If It’s myself before meeting Misaki then surely I’ll just ignore it. But as of now, what would I do…… At least listen to the story…… perhaps?

Achoo, while I’m thinking about other stuff, Kohinata-san that’s sitting beside me sneezed.

“Oooouu.”

While making a sound like an American person, she hugs her shoulder tighter than before.

“Sorry, let’s get back then. If your physical condition get worse then it’s totally my fault.”

“N-, nwo, it’s not like that at awll, wa- wawa――”

Kohinata-san who suddenly tries to stand up lost her balance, and fell backward. Since it was too sudden I couldn’t react in time, and I reach my hand out a little too late.

“……Are you okay?”

“A-, ay am fwine!”

Though she said that, Kohinata-san instantly jumps out and distance away from me.

“……Did I, do something wrong?”

“Nwo! Nwothing at awll!”

“Please be honest with me. If not, I might make the same mistake in the future.”

“It’s twruth, it’s nothing rweally I’m fwine really!”

Kohinata-san waves her hands quickly in denial.

“……Aaauu, no, why is it…… it’s different from before……”

Kohinata-san has her knees on the ground holding her chest with both of her hands, while breathing rapidly as if she’s in pain.

“No way, you’re having a spasm?”

When I asked, she acts surprised and lift her face up. After that, for some reason she’s rubbing her leg. Is that a new method for medical treatment or something……? While I kept watching her wonderingly, eventually Kohinata-san comes back to her calm self and slowly stands up.

“……Fuheheh, I’m sorry. That was unsightly.

“No, I don’t mind but…… Are you really okay?”

“Of course, I’m fine, really……?”

Good grief she doesn’t look okay at all but……

“Ummm, it’s that you know! about Misaki-chan I meant!”

“……Oh, you had a clue?”

“I’ll ask her! Tomorrow! In the bath!”

“……I saw, that’d be very help, thankyou.”

Getting pressured by Kohinata-san’s excitement, I unintentionally speaks in a broken manner.

“That’s why, Let’s go home and sleep for today! Let’s do that right now!”

“……You’re right.”

I see, so it was that all along. I didn’t notices at all that Kohinata-san was suffering from a strange disease…… And to call her out to consult in such a day, I’m the worst! In contrary, she still come along with me to give me advices like this…… What a nice person she is!

“Alright, then let’s get back quickly. I’ll walk you home properly…… Well you’re next-door to me though.”

“……No, that is, I am…… going to, pick flowers for a while.”

“I’ll wait, if it’s just that.”

“Ummm, seems like…… it’s going to, take a long time so.”

“I don’t mind, I can wait until morning.”

“You can’t do that you know!”

“I’m the one who troubles you. So please let me do it, at least this much.”

“…… I really, don’t think, you troubles me at all.”

Kohinata-san look down, rubbing her legs fidgety together.

……This, it’s that right. I can’t describe it but, she’s enduring it right?

“……I understand, then I’ll head back first. I’m sorry, really.”

“It’s nothing really, yes. Then, well…… see you, tomorrow.”

“Yeah, see you tomorrow.”

While looking back repeatedly, I walk out of the park.

Maybe Kohinata-san is going to see me off until I disappeared from her sight.

I walks a little bit further, until I couldn’t see the park anymore so I stops and stood still looking into the sky.

I took a deep breath, and let out a long sigh.

There’s a few things, that I’m not good at dealing with.

One of it, is the way I treat woman.

If you think about it even Misaki who’s five years old is angry at me, so for Kohinata-san who’s an adult to be angry at me is inevitable I can say that for sure. Though it’s already too late……

Being delicate, or something like that, I wonder how I can learn those stuff. To begin with, what did I do wrong today? The first thing that comes to my mind is, me asking her for consult at this late hour in the first place is wrong, but if it’s that then she should be angry on the spot when I asked her so that’s not it.

……I don’t get it at all.

For the time being, let’s keep it a secret from Misaki that I have a talk with Kohinata-san. From the children’s viewpoint, they wouldn’t want their parents to ask other people for a way to improve their mood.

And so, while thinking about those stuff, I walked back home.
