Chapter 41: The day I bought swimsuits.
And so it was decided that we’re going to the pool for the next fun festival.
Of course, both me and Misaki didn’t have our own swimsuits.
That’s why today, I’m going to buy swimsuits.
First I bought my own swimsuit, and then when I was about to buy a swimsuit for Misaki, I immediately regretted my own decision.
……Just why, why didn’t I bring her along.
I want to punch myself for leaving Misaki alone at home because I want to give it to her like a surprise present.
……Alright which one, which one would be perfect for Misaki? Well for now I only know that Misaki’s small…… But I don’t know a damn thing about her three-sizes.
The word swimsuit has many types of its own. Appearance-wise there’s the one-piece type one and also the one that separate between top and bottom parts. If you also consider its patterns and designs it’ll make you faint on the spot. In fact, right now I’m walking around in the children’s swimsuit corner looking left and right. And my eyes met with nearby small bikini for adults, but yup there’s no way I’ll let Misaki wear these.
Red, blue, white, black, yellow, pink, polka dots, striped, flowers…… Dammit, which one would be best for her!?
And while I’m worrying about what to do, I heard an extremely hyper female clerk voice.
“Heyー yaー! Are ya lookin’ for swimsuit?”
“Yes, that’s right.”
“You see, customer-san your voice is kinda deep isn’t it. Are you often mistaken as a male?”
“Even if I’m mistaken I’m still a male anyway.”
“……”
“……”
What’s with this atmosphere.
“Ya, haha, I see. Well, I ended up thinking that you’re a woman at first silly me ahahaha.”
Aside from my face you should already be able to tell that I’m not a woman just from my clothes and physique dammit.
“Ummmm…… uh, is this for your own use?”
“No way in hell. I’m thinking about what to buy for Misaki.”
“Is that your girl?”1
Well since I’m looking at swimsuits for woman right now so of course she’s a girl.
“Yeah, that’s right.”
“Woah, nii-san you’re pretty awesome! Giving a swimsuit as a present, that’s totally slick isn’t it!”
“You think so? ……Oh yeah right, you’re just in time. Can you help me looking for a good swimsuit please.”
“Got it. Do you know her three sizes?”
“I don’t really know but, her height is about half of mine.”
“Eh, half…… Ahhhh, so for your dakimura?” 2
Is this clerk looking for a fight with me or something.
“For my daughter.”
“……I just remembered! You’re the same nii-san that bought futons from half a year ago!”
Futon…… Ahh I remembered that. So she’s that rowdy clerk from that time huh.
“Well, it’s all thanks to nii-san buying those futons that I got promoted. My hourly wage has gone up for about 100 yen.”
“I see, I’m glad for you then.”
“Yes. Seriously on the first floor there’s no people visiting at all so they’re so boring…… By the way, I’ve heard that if you’ve been promoted to the third floor your hourly wage will go up for another two hundred yen, so please think of it as helping my wallet situation, and please buy a lot this time too.”
“I don’t need more than one set of this thing anyway.”
“Ahah, Iー can’tー hearー youー “
Although I haven’t met her for half a year, but she’s still very hyper as ever.
She’s truly annoying but, this she’s also a true connoisseur at heart. Misaki loved that pillow I bought for her at that time.
“Nii-san you don’t have any female friends or something?”
“I won’t give a swimsuit as a present for a girl I know.”
That’s completely perverted isn’t it. If the roles were to be switched and I got shorts as a present, well I’d say that it’d be kinda awkward to wear that.
“Is that so? I’m still an active JK3, I’ll let you know that we normally send underwear as birthday presents you know?”
“Are you kidding me?”
“I’m serious.”
“……Well, you and your friend are in the same gender, so yeah I guess you can do that but.”
“I also did that with my male friends.”
“……Seriously?”
“Seriously.”
I see, so right now things are like that huh.
But still I don’t even have someone close to me that I wanted to give a present to…… Ah, there’s Kohinata-san.
“Well, what about now? You don’t have any at all?”
“There is, one person.”
“Ohー, that’s great! Um, so what kind of person is she? A boing boing person?” (Big boobs)
“No, I think it was on a smaller side. Her height is about one hundred and fifty I think?” (Centimeters)
“I see I see. What about her age?”
“Around twenty give or take I guess?”
“I shee I shee. I got it all now! Please leave it to me!”
And so, I bought two set of swimsuits and a sunscreen.
I feel like the swimsuits are kinda a bit expensive but…… Well, let’s not mind it.
“Thanks for your purchaseー!”
With an energetic voice behind me, I leave the swimsuit area.
And then, over there.
“Ugh.”
“You act like that as soon as you see a person’s face? As I thought you’re a rude person.”
The world is so small, that’s what I thought at that moment.
“You’re from the female’s swimsuit area…… So you have that kind of hobby I see.”
“That’s not it, I’ve come to buy a swimsuit for Misaki that’s all.”
“Hehー, for Misaki-chan, is it.”
Why the hell is she looking at me with those doubtful eyes.
“The same goes to you why do you even come here anyway.”
“I’m here to buy a swimsuit for Yui.”
“For yourself?”
“For my daughter obviously. If you’re at my age and still referring yourself with your own name, that’s just too lame.”
Just what’s this sprinting-full-speed-through-the-whole-damn-town-at-noon-wearing-a-dress-person talking about.
“You come here to buy swimsuit which means…… They didn’t held this kind of event last year?”
“No, it’s just that the last year’s swimsuit won’t fit her anymore. Well as long as she’s growing up healthily I’m happy all the same.”
That reminded me, Yui-chan is kinda tall. Well I only have Misaki for comparison though.
“So, you’re not going to attend again as usual?”
“If you’re talking about the pool then, yes.”
“Can’t you just like take at least a day off?”
“If I can do that then I’ll do it.”
There’s no delay between each of her replies at all. For me, I kinda hate that a little bit.
“What’s the reason for you to work that hard.”
“It’s for my daughter.”
“It’ll make her sad that way.”
“I already know that.”
“Then-“
“But for that girl’s sake, money is necessary.”
I unconsciously shut my mouth.
Well because it’s a reason that’s so simple to understand after all. She has to raise her daughter all by herself, and for that to go smoothly she needs money.
“But still, maybe you can just take a day off.”
“And by a day off that you said, just how many a day off would you take in one year.”
“What?”
“A human whom you doesn’t know when she’ll be absence again, just who on earth would want to work with a person like that?”
This time I lost all of my words for real. It’s because I completely understand everything she had said thus far. But still, I can’t put myself to accept that.
“So once again, please take care of Yui.”
She lightly bows her head, then walks inside the swimsuit area. And me, I can only watch her back getting farther and seeing her off.
Well that’s a matter of course.
I’m sure she thinking about the same thing, the same thing that I’m thinking about. But still when she already said that much, how do you even retort to that anyway.
Of course. That’s a thing that anyone and everyone understand it wholly.
But surely the reason I can’t put myself to accept that.
Is all because, I’m still just a kid.
