The victory celebration was dismissed after 7:30 pm. No matter how much our homeroom teacher Fujimoto-sensei was leading the class, it was no use. For the families would worry if their kids were late.
“My share… I’ve just won a game, and now I’m out in the cold”
“You’re the one who’s going to pay for using your students as an excuse to do stupid things? I’m not going to lose a dime, so pay up!”
Our trusty homeroom teacher was in tears when the manager, a friend of his, gave him a merciless lecture during the checkout. I felt so sorry for him as he looked at his empty wallet with eyes like a dead fish.
“Well then, Yuya, Hitotsuba. Good work today! Be careful on your way home!”
“Kaede, you’ll have to wait until you get home to make out with him, okay?”
Otsuki-san said with a grin, but Kaede knew that much. I’d never made out with anyone on my way home before.
“I don’t know about that. Unknowingly spreading sugar is Yoshizumi’s favorite thing to do. I mean, they often say that they don’t even realize it.”
Nikaido smiled nihilistically. That was a terrible thing to say. When they left, we would be just like any other couple, you know? In fact, I think Shinji and Otsuki-san were more attached to each other. Kaede and I were close to the degree that we only held hands.
“That’s right. We’re just holding hands. We don’t have our arms around each other like Akiho and the others.”
Kaede smiled with her hands over her mouth like some young lady. No, Kaede was a respectable president’s daughter. Furthermore, she was the only daughter of a large, well-established company that was celebrating its 100th anniversary. I almost forgot that she didn’t give off that high-handed, or obnoxious vibe that was so common in anime and manga.
“Again! You’re just trying to resist the urge to walk with your arms crossed, aren’t you? Why don’t you just be honest about it, uuh!”
Otsuki-san poked Kaede’s side with her elbow while imitating a big producer with a smirk on her face. Tickling herself, Kaede said forcefully, “I’m sorry.”
“When I go home, I’ll be able to spoil Yuya-kun, so that’s fine! I’ve learned that sometimes it’s important to be patient and not always be attached!”
Kaede made a fist and appealed to her. Where and when did she learn to do that? Whenever you get a chance, you try to take a bath with me, and when you sleep, you use my body as a hug pillow, and I don’t think she can stand it?
“Oh, no… !? Maybe you didn’t like it? Did you not like being attached to me? If so, I’ll be patient!”
“I never said I didn’t like it, did I?”
But even so, the gratitude or freshness may fade. In that sense, it might be a good idea to stay unattached at times. If you do, the warmth and happiness you feel when you hug Kaede would be doubled.
“Yoshizumi… Don’t spoil Kaede too much, okay? You have to be firm with her.”
“Hey, is it me? What’s wrong with me?”
“Because… when I was… no, it was nothing. Yeah, everything’s Yoshizumi’s fault!”
Nikaido crossed his arms and nodded her head. Wasn’t that a bit unreasonable, Nikaido-san? Don’t just turn your back on me like you don’t accept objections! Let me argue with you!
“Nikaido-san is right, Yuya. Ever since you started going out with Hitotsuba-san, Yuya has been
giving off an aura of love for Hitotsuba-san from his body anyway. I think you should pull yourself together a little bit, okay?”
“I don’t want you to be the only one to tell me that, Shinji!”
It made me irresistibly angry to be called a couple by the man who was that much of a couple himself. Although I didn’t feel comfortable without hitting him once on the head, Shinji took Otsuki-san’s hand and ran away like a rabbit. You had the nerve to run away from me!?
“Haha… Well, I’m tired too, so I’ll be going now. Good work today.”
Waving with a fluttering hand, Nikaido ran after Shinji and the others. The three of you are terrible. Even though the direction of the train was the opposite, you didn’t have to leave us behind.
“Yuya-kun is right. Everyone is calling us a couple or a mettopuru or something terrible. We’re pretty normal”
“That’s right. It’s not like we’re particularly lovey-dovey, is it.”
Kaede smiled bitterly as she said this, and I fully agreed with her. I think Shinji and Otsuki-san were much closer to each other in the last couple of years. The two of them became famous in the school as a couple because of their flirting.
“Akiho and Higurashi are a famous couple. Akiho was also confessed by many boys, but she kicked them off with a smile.”
“Shinji is the same way. I don’t think you can imagine, but he just flat out refuses. That guy he’s only interested in Otsuki-san! That’s what he said.”
Shinji was a cute boy as he looked, so he was often confessed by older students who were higher in school than his classmates. But he was very thorough in refusing all of them because he fell in love with Otsuki-san at first sight and started dating her. He dotes on Otsuki and changes himself if she says anything bad about him. Hey, wasn’t it the same with me?
“Fufu. I think Yuya-kun and Higurashi-kun are best friends because they are such similar people, you know? Aah, we should be on our way home too! Let’s continue our victory celebration in private!”
Kaede crossed her arms and leaned in close to me. It was past 8 pm when I arrived home. I’d a lot of time before I went to bed. And since the world had already entered the Golden Week, I’m allowed to sleep in and stay up late
“Your reward… I’m counting on you, okay?”
My heart skipped a beat when she whispered in my ear in a lusty voice. What should I give her as a reward? I hadn’t thought of anything.
“Then… you can heed my request, if you like? Don’t worry. I won’t ask for anything rash!”
Yeah, it is hard to feel safe when you say so, Kaede.
