“…..this is also a memento of my mother’s and a precious memory of my first love.”
After she spoke for a moment, Todo lovingly wrapped the key chain in her hands and held it in her arms.
Her expression was so passionate that anyone could see it and she looked like a maiden in love.
Seeing her story and her expression, I —-.
(…… hmmm)
I was beginning to think about it, listening to my heartbeat, which kept beating so loudly that I wondered if it was an irregular pulse.
I was thinking about it because …… it’s, how should I say it?
(It’s a story that sounds familiar to me. …..)
Todo said that the keychain was a memento, that she had lost it once and that she and the boy had looked for it.
I, on the other hand, remember recognizing that keychain and looking for it with a girl.
Could it be a coincidence? However, all of the episodes I heard about matched my memories.
It’s almost like the first time I heard Ayase’s first love episode…
W”hat’s wrong……?”
She looked at me as if she was suspicious of something.
“Hna!? W-What?!”
“.. you look like you want to be honest, but you’re not sure if you’re right and you’re not sure if you should say it.”
Even if I were the type to have a facial expression, I would be suspicious of a psychic for matching it so well.
“I’ve been studying for roles, even though I look like this ……, so I have good insight.”
I see, although I felt that she was too right on the mark to be put away by “good”.
“…… *stare.”
“W-What……?”
Why am I being stared at so much by a beautiful girl? Her beautiful face was so close to me…
“C-Can I take a picture?”
“…… allowed.”
I’m very happy. This is the second one.
“…. I, you know, I’ll thank him when I see him one more time.”
As I finish taking the picture, Todo suddenly says something like that.
When I received that, I involuntarily straightened my back.
“H-hee
“…… that time, ‘Thank you for finding it,’ and ‘Thank you for looking after me.”
And then Todo turns her fawning smile toward me with a thinly tinted cheek.
Don’t tell me she is going to make the same confession as Ayase? But it was a long time ago, and to be honest, there are very few people who are as invested in the past as Ayase is.
However, the expression that Todo is turning now is the face of a maiden, and …… everyone seems to be charmed by it.
“….I’m going to hit him at least three times and tell him what I want to say.”
—I also thought that I could no longer say what was right or wrong.
(Why …… do you hate me so much that you hit me more than once?)
If you only look at it objectively, it should be something that is firmly praiseworthy.
…… No, it’s true that at the time, I left without saying a word in a panic over my mother’s merciless death sentence to her son, who had been out for not just a curfew, but one step short of being taken in.
No wonder she was so angry …… Well, I had no idea that that was enough to get me punched more than three times.
“(I’m going to tell him that I like him …….)”
I thought I heard Todo mutter something in a whisper as she turned to me.
Maybe she is considering other lineups of executions, not just multiple fists.
After all, it would be better to ask her honestly here—
“Hey, Todo,…… actually—“
“…… Sakuma is smart, right?”
” ……Yes, I think I am a smart guy, but what I want to say is “
“…… teach me”
“…… rather than that, I’d like to say”
“I want you to teach me …..”
Why is she so stubbornly unwilling to let me say it?
It seems a little strange or uncomfortable when she covers it up so blatantly.
On the other hand, Todo looks up at me with a glare,
“…… no good?”
“Of course okay.”
However, such discomfort is no match for Todo’s superior eye contact, which creates a neat atmosphere.
If I take a picture without permission, it will be treated as voyeurism, so I’ll burn it into my brain memory of the current scene.
“Well, I don’t mind teaching you to study,…… but why are you suddenly doing it?”
“I’m too busy working …… to keep up with studies.”
Todo doesn’t seem to be coming to school very often.
I guess she has enough attendance days, but my school is one of the highest high schools in the prefecture. It’s true that if you take fewer classes, you won’t be able to keep up.
“I’ll pay you…….”
“Hmm? I don’t need money, though?”
“…… then, do you want me to give you my body?”
“I’d like to correct myself in advance, did I ask for any compensation at all once in this conversation we just had?”
I hope you’ll change your perception as soon as possible, because this is objectively misleading.
“Because ……, I’ve never asked for a favor like this from someone in my class or anything like that.”
Shun, said Todo.
…Perhaps Toudou feels a wall between hierself and everyone else because she doesn’t come to school that often
Of course, it’s not that they don’t like her
It’s just that she is a famous celebrity who is often seen in the media. She is popular, but she is not a friend.
In a way, she may have different concerns than Ayase.
That’s probably why she has never asked for much and is worried if she doesn’t pay for it.
I gave her a light bump on the head.
“…. ouch.”
“You’re a guesser like a mentalist, but you’re so out of touch with this kind of thing.”
“…… Eh?”
Todo looks curious.
Toward her, I said…
“If someone is in trouble, you don’t have to give a reason to help them.”
─ ─ ─ Since I had no particular reason to deceive her, I said what I thought.
At that, Todo was taken aback for a moment, and then for some reason her mouth loosened.
“(…..I’m sure it’s the same.)”
“Hmm?”
Again, she mumbled something
Since I am sitting next to her, I wish she would speak louder so that I can hear her.
“…. So, shall we exchange contact information?”
“I don’t mind, but is that really acceptable for a celebrity?”
“…… we don’t prohibit romance.”
“Hmm.”
“…… we don’t have a dating policy.”
“I just heard that.”
“…… we don’t ban relationships.”
“…………”
Why is that? Do I look like such a forgetful idiot that I have to be reminded three times?
“It’s a miracle. It’s fate.”
As I was thinking this, Todo suddenly changed her tone of voice.
“I don’t want to give up. …… I can’t believe this coincidence. Because honestly, I was about to give up, and then you showed up in front of me one more time!”
“Is that the role in the script you just played? You’re a fascinating person after all.”
“Fufu, what do you think?”
Todo smiles seductively and pokes me in the cheek.
Then she spoke the rest of what seemed to be scripted.
“I’ll never let you go,……, and I’ll say it again properly…. I love you!”
Prepare yourself.
I couldn’t help but blush at the wink and words directed at me, even though I knew it was an act.
