“Sara-senpai… no, Sara-san!”
“Ye-Yes!?”
Sara-san was probably surprised to be suddenly called by my loud voice, and her expression was filled with surprise.
Not only Sara-san but Natsumi-senpai and Hayato were also surprised.
The only one smiling was Mayumi-san who doesn’t seem to be too surprised.
This time, I’ll definitely tell her!!!
“Until I met you, I had an unpleasant view of things, and I thought I would be alone for a long time. I felt unlucky, looking at how always things were unfair, and became sulky…”
At that time, Sara-san didn’t believe me, but the truth was that it was me who didn’t believe in her, which was the worst thing I could have thought.
“That’s why when Sara-san told me that no matter what I asked, she would never change her opinion and would support me in my decisions, I knew I finally met someone who believed in me. Because of that simple reason, I fell in love with Sara-san.”
Yes, I think I had already fallen in love with Sara-san way back then.
“But back then, Sara-san thought of me as her close friend. Of course, it was a blessing to be thought of that way, and I truly thought that if that’s what my precious Sara-san wanted from me, then it was okay to keep it that way. I was also really happy that Sara-san was being so kind only to me.”
Sara-san’s surprised expression disappeared and she looked straight at me with a serious expression.
“I was really happy spending the days with Sara-san. That time when I caught a cold or got injured, Sara-san took care of me at my house, and I was filled with joy while feeling apologetic. I never thought that Sara-san would ask me about my true feelings in a situation like that.”
Sara-san listened without changing her expression… no, her eyes were a little…
“Sara-san… Did I succeed in making you fall in love with me? Did my love reach you? I’m a pathetic man, but at least I wanted to show you my manly side, but in the end, I was saved by your kindness to the very end.”
From here it starts… here we go.
Man up, Kazunari!
“People around me probably don’t think I’m the right guy for you. But I don’t care! I want to be with you because I truly like you. I don’t want to let you go, and I don’t want even a shadow of another man near you. That’s why!!!”
Sara-san was wiping her tears away but she still kept her gaze at me.
I know what I’m about to say might be arrogant of me, but I believe Sara-san will accept it.
“Sara-san, I am the only man who can get you to cook me a home-cooked meal! I’m the only man you can snuggle with! The only man you can be nice to! The only man you can be with! So I want you to be my girlfriend… my exclusive Sara-san! If you accept it, ring that bell with…”
*Bam!!!*
I couldn’t finish my sentence.
Because Sara-san didn’t listen until the end.
I couldn’t finish my sentence because Sara-san threw herself at me, who jumped in with great force.
“Yes… Yes… I hear and accept Kazunari-san’s words. Thank you for waiting for me… someone who says stupid things such as not knowing about love…”
I guess Sara-san felt the same way as I did, that I was waiting for something.
We were waiting for each other. Waiting for someone to make a move…
“I was yearning… I was waiting dearly… And at last. At last, I can finally tell you…”
While my tears trickled down my face, I hugged Sara-san and stroked her back gently as she hugged me tightly.
After a while, Sara-san started sobbing like a little child.
“I love you so much. I would do anything as long as it would make Kazunari-san happy… You are the only one for me and no one else. From now on, I will do everything only for you.”
After saying that, she finally looked up at me.
I wiped up Sara-san’s tears with my fingers and in response, she showed me a smile.
“Fufu… I have never felt so happy in my life. Most of my first times have been with Kazunari-san.”
It looked like Sara-san had calmed down, and her composure returned.
Is it okay if I continue our conversation?
“Sara-san, please join me in ringing the bell.”
“Yes… with pleasure.”
I held out my hand, and Sara-san grabbed it happily, our arms intertwining in the process.
We passed by the gate with our arms wrapped around each other, and both grasped the string attached to the bell.
“Here we go.”
“Yes.”
*Klang… Klang… Klang… Klang… Klang…*
The sound of the bell echoed through the quiet hills, adding color to the nightscape.
Finally… I was finally able to tell Sara-san how I feel…
“Kazunari-san… I have so many things that I want to do only for you. It is endless… Sara will do it with only you in mind, so please accept all of them, okay?”
She said in a slightly mischievous tone, put her hands around my shoulders, and reached out to me…
Chuu…!
!!??
I felt a soft touch on my cheek, and when I hurriedly looked at Sara, she had a big smile.
“I love you dearly… Kazunari-san.”
Thus we went from a relationship that was almost lovers to real lovers…
“Sara-senpai… no, Sara-san!”
“Ye-Yes!?”
Sara-san was probably surprised to be suddenly called by my loud voice, and her expression was filled with surprise.
Not only Sara-san but Natsumi-senpai and Hayato were also surprised.
