“────I Wonder why it feels like a regular time when I talk to Magiri, even though we didn’t see each other once during the summer break.”
A week has passed since the second semester started, and one day in September, it was recess time.
On the opening day of the second semester, when Nanahoshi, Mizushiro senpai and I talked, it was early in the day and there were still hardly any people there, so there was no problem for me to talk with them because there was no one to attract attention.
“How about you, Magiri?”
“That might be”
“I know, right~?”
I nodded my head in agreement with Nanahoshi and she nodded her head in agreement with me.
Then she continued and said as if she remembered something.
“Yeah! I told you that I confessed to the person I care about …… or rather, the person I like, didn’t I? And yet, I haven’t been able to contact him, let alone meet him, since I confessed!”
I didn’t think much of it, but come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve messaged her recently.
“Why?”
I ask, and Nanahoshi says in a loud voice.
“model work! I’ve been busy for a while because I’ve been having a lot of fun during the summer vacation and now I’m feeling the repercussions! It’s too hard not being able to talk to the person I like after I confessed my feelings to him! I was sick when that person was avoiding me, but now I’m sick in a different way!~”
Since avoiding Nanahoshi will hurt her, I don’t intend to avoid her as I did before, but it’s also true that I don’t know how to properly relate to her now.
“Haa~, if he was in school with me, I could talk to him everyday like I’m talking to Magiri like this right now~”
If we were in school together ……?
This is the second semester of my freshman year of high school …… and for the next two or three years, I will continue to pretend to be something I’m not,────.
“Ah~! I told you that I haven’t been able to contact the person I like, and then I remembered that I have something to say to Magiri too!”
“What do you want to say to me ……?”
I stopped thinking once and listened back to Nanahoshi, Nanahoshi took out her smart phone from the pocket in her uniform skirt and said
“Contacts! We talked about exchanging contact information before, but we didn’t end up doing so during the summer vacation, right? During the summer vacation, I wanted to talk to Magiri a few times about things I wanted to discuss with you, or just hang out, but I didn’t have your contact information, so I couldn’t contact you…so let’s exchange now!”
Contact …… I’ve forgotten about that issue because of all the things that have been going on.
Since there is one contact number per phone number, I, as a true Magiri, can’t exchange contact information with Nanahoshi
If I had a social networking service, there might have been another option, but unfortunately, I am not interested in such things, so I don’t have a social networking service other than orthodox messaging tools.
“I’d certainly love to exchange, but …… it’s almost time to get back to class, so let’s go back.”
“Wow, that’s true! What a bad time~! Let’s get back to class!”
“……yeah.”
After that, Nanahoshi and I went back to the classroom together.
Then ──── after school.
As I was walking near the school gate with various thoughts going through my head, a voice called out to me from the side.
“Iroto-kun, you have a sad face.~”
When I turned in the direction of the voice, it was Mizushiro-senpai who was there.
“Would you like onee san to go to a cafe with you from now on and see if you have such a dull look on your face?”
“No, I ────”
“It’s decided~! Onee san knows a nice cafe around here, so I’ll take you there~!”
While saying that, senpai forcefully pushed me onto my back.
senpai was the same as always, but… senpai’s usual behavior somehow calmed me down a bit, and senpai and I headed to the cafe together.
────On the way, it might just be my imagination, but I felt that the atmosphere of senpai walking next to me was somehow different than before.
