Wait, hold up. This might be my first-ever holiday date.
Huh? Oh no. Suddenly feeling nervous.
Me… am I actually on a date with my favorite idol right now? This is guaranteed to make me cry. Heart-pounding alert. 10 seconds until I fall for her. This path leads straight to the wedding aisle. …Yeah.
I’m so nervous I’m thinking of all kinds of weird stuff.
“Isn’t that hat hot?”
I’m nervous, so I’ll just make conversation to ease up.
Also, I genuinely wonder if it’s hot. If she’s wearing it now, she must have worn it all the way here.
“Yeah, it’s hot.”
Ah, it really is hot.
“Then why are you wearing it?”
“Fashion requires sacrifice.”
“I see.”
Oh, so she’s wearing it for fashion. I totally thought she was wearing it because she likes Ringo-chan.
“Looking forward to the training camp, huh?”
“Yeah. It’s my first club training camp, so I’m a little nervous too.”
“It’s just club activities, but it’s basically just a sleepover, so there’s no need to be that nervous.”
“If that’s the case, I think I can enjoy it 100%.”
“Yeah.”
I’m so happy I got to talk with Fumi-senpai this much.
Since Fumi-senpai is a senior, when I told her I was nervous, she said things that really helped ease my tension.
She acts like a middle schooler, but she’s a proper senior. She’s messing with my head.
“What should we do? Where should we start?”
“What should we do?”
“Want to go see swimsuits?”
“Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh? Huh?”
S-s-s-s-s-s-swimsuits!? Go see them!?
C-c-c-calm down. Just calm down.
L-l-l-let’s sort this out.
Did Fumi-senpai just invite me to go see swimsuits? Yeah, right! I can see Fumi-senpai’s swimsuit faster than ever!
I can see Fumi-senpai’s swimsuit without waiting for the training camp!
Thank you… I want to give thanks to everything.
“Let’s go. Let’s go right now.”
We have to go immediately before Fumi-senpai gets embarrassed and says “Never mind!” Hurry! Before she changes her mind!
I’m so happy my head might explode. Is it even okay for something this happy to happen?
…Huh! Could this be a dream? Because there’s no way such a lucky pervert scenario could happen. If it’s a dream, I can do anything, right? …Nah, I won’t fall for that trap again. This is real.
Yesss!! It’s real!! It’s not a dream—I get to see Fumi-senpai’s swimsuit in person!!
“The swimsuits are on the third floor, right?”
“Huh? You knew?”
“No, I sensed it. That they’re on the third floor.”
I really didn’t want to show it off… my ability.
Wild Instinct (Swimsuit Detection) – An ability I can only use when I’m serious. I don’t even know how I acquired it myself. An ability no one else can learn.
It’s not something I can use whenever I want to, so I can’t control it myself.
“Intuition?”
“No, it’s always there. I just know.”
All I can think about now is swimsuits. …Hurry up and show me your swimsuit.
…I was regretting it.
When Fumi-senpai came to visit me, I turned down her offer to blow on my forehead.
After that, I decided to live my life without any more regrets.
My legs move on their own toward the swimsuit section, like the swimsuits are pulling me in. Maybe I’m anxious, but I naturally start walking faster.
No one can stop me now.
“Ah, it’s onii chan!”
…Please tell me it’s a lie.
“Magician Onii chan!”
“Shota’s sister?”
“No, that’s not it. This girl is a friend of mine.”
Explaining this girl is tricky.
More importantly, why do you always show up at the worst possible time?! Didn’t you come when I was leaving with the new colors last time too? Do you have some grudge against me?
“Could you be Ringo-chan?”
“Huh?”
“Because you said you were friends with Ringo-chan!”
Oh man… now that you mention it, I did say something like that. When she asked how I could use magic, I think I just casually said it was because I was friends with Ringo-chan.
But Ringo-chan and Fumi-senpai don’t look that much alike, though. Does she already know that pictures and real people are different?
“Yeah. This is Ringo-chan.”
“Shota!?”
Everything just felt too much of a hassle, so I decided to make Fumi-senpai be Ringo-chan just for today.
“Ringo-chan~! Please give me a handshake!”
“Uh, sure.”
Fumi-senpai, looking flustered, shook hands with Mika-chan.
“Mika-chan. Where are your parents?”
I gotta get this kid back to her parents fast so I can see Fumi-senpai’s swimsuit!
“I don’t know~”
Huh?
“Where did you get separated?”
“Outside.”
“Outside? Not here?”
“Yeah. It looked cool, so I came here!”
Well then! Announcing her at the lost children center won’t do any good!
“Well then, until your parents show up, let’s play with me and Ringo-chan, okay?”
“Okay!”
“Sorry, Senpai.”
“It’s totally fine.”
So, I decided to look for her mom while playing with Mika-chan.
“She fell asleep, huh?”
“Yep.”
This kid actually fell asleep.
Right now, she’s snoozing away on my back. She asked me to carry her, but I never agreed to her falling asleep.
She looks so damn comfortable sleeping…
So, where the hell is this kid’s mom?! When am I ever going to get out of this mess?!
“Ah~ Mika~!”
I heard a familiar voice.
“Mika-chan’s dad…”
It was Mika-chan’s dad.
Right, come to think of it, this kid wasn’t crying. She cries when it’s her mom, but not when it’s her dad.
“Sorry~ Mika’s been…”
“No, no.”
“I don’t mind at all.”
Saying that, I quickly handed Mika-chan over to her dad.
“We’ve been running into each other a lot lately.”
“Yeah, I guess so.”
“That time really surprised me. You suddenly jumped on the train, and then it was ‘Communication Permission in Car 5’.”
“Whoa, whoa, whoa! Um, we have business to attend to, so we’ll be excusing ourselves around here.”
I bowed my head, grabbed Fumi-senpai’s shoulders, and quickly pulled her away from the spot.
I totally let my guard down. Never thought it’d turn into this worst-case scenario. I don’t think Fumi-senpai heard. …Well, I hope not.
“What should we do now? It’s already late though…”
“It is late. Let’s just go home.”
“…Yeah, I guess so.”
That was the moment my date with Fumi-senpai and the swimsuit viewing party vanished.
…It’s over. My dream shattered at the same time.
“I’m going this way.”
“Well, I guess we part ways here then.”
“Bye-bye~”
“Thanks for today.”
“The swimsuits will be something to look forward to at camp♪”
Saying that, Fumi-senpai walked away.
I couldn’t move from that spot for a while.
…Swimsuits. Something to look forward to.
