Kano san’s lie caused a stir for a while, but things were calming down as I desperately tried to clear up the misunderstanding.
“Hmm, so Yuki san is an alumni from our high school.”
“I thought she looked a little like Yuki san from Class 1 , but it turns out they are sisters.”
“What is your relationship with Yuito after all?”
“Oh, I guess you’re all curious, aren’t you?”
Before I knew it, Kano san was carefully sitting next to me, eating her food and talking happily with the three of them. Even though today was supposed to be the first time they met, Kano san hit it off so quickly that I can only say it was amazing.
By the way, I explained it to the store staff and had them correct the bill for five people, so it seems that there is no problem with Kano san being here according to the store’s rules. I wonder if Kano san, an outsider, is invading the launch of the ball game tournament.
“And then, Yuito dropped the soft serve ice cream on the ground and cried a lot.”
“Wow, Yuito, who usually plays it cool, had a phase like that?”
“……Kano san, please don’t reveal embarrassing stories from my childhood.”
That’s what I said to Kano san, who had started talking about such things in front of everyone before I knew it. I didn’t know what she would say if I let her go any further.
“Eh, it’s fine. Personally, I still don’t have enough to say.”
“Since we’re here, let’s hear what Yuki san has to say.”
“I’ve been curious about Yuito because he doesn’t talk much about his past.”
“What other stories do you have?”
There was no sign that Natsuno-san would give up on disclosing the information despite my futile resistance. Just as I was wondering if they would give me a break, I saw a man and a woman wearing the same school uniforms as us trying to take a seat nearby.
“Ah !?”
When I saw the profile of the of them, I couldn’t help but raise my voice. Hearing that voice, the other person seemed to have noticed our presence as well, and looked surprised.
“Eh !?”
“Yuito and Kano san !?”
Suzuno and my brother each said something like that. I was quite surprised, but Suzuno and my brother also seemed to be quite surprised.
“It’s really a strange coincidence to meet you two in a place like this. Are Suzuno chan and Ayato on a date?”
“……Yeah.”
Suzuno answered with an embarrassed look on her face. When I saw that figure, my excitement suddenly dropped.
“Why are you with Yuito and the others, Kano san? It looks like it’s the launch of a ball game tournament or something…”
“Oh, I happened to run into Yuito when I stopped by here for shopping after class. I had some free time, so I asked Yuito if I could join their after party.”
“Onee chan, you still have amazing energy.”
Suzuno seems to be acting normally while my brother seems a little uninterested.
“…If you don’t mind, would you like to sit here and eat with us? I think it’s a little strange that Kano san is at Yuito’s party.”
“Hmm, personally, I’m in the middle of having fun with Yuito and the others, so I think it’s okay to stay here. Besides, it wouldn’t be a good idea to interfere with Suzuno chan and Ayato’s date.”
“I see…….”
Mybrother casually tried to guide Kano san to their seat, but she flatly refused. My brother immediately backed down, but he seemed to be regretful somehow.
Well, there’s no way he can feel calm when he sees the girl he likes with other guys. If it were the other way around, I’m sure I would feel the same way.
After that, things started to get heated again, but my brother kept glancing at me frequently. He’s probably really worried about us.
“Aniki, you’ve been staring at me too hard since a while ago.”
“T-that’s not true.”
“No, no, it’s obvious. You should be sure to keep Suzuno company too.”
I advised him as I got up from my seat to follow my brother who had gone to get the dishes. I’m a little angry about sending salt to my brother who is my love rival, but I can’t say that.
I felt a little sorry for Suzuno because she was being neglected. It must be shocking to have such an attitude when you are on an after-school date alone with the person you love.
In fact, Suzuno looks a little sad. t’s true that if Suzuno hates my brother, the chances of her turning to me may go up all at once.
But I didn’t want Suzuno to be hurt. So I suppressed my feelings and acted for her sake.
“I understand, and I will seriously reflect on my actions.”
“I’m counting on you.”
Having conveyed the least I could say to my brother, I put the appropriate food on my plate and returned to my seat.
“What were you and Ayato talking about?”
“I was just complaining to him.”
I was talking to my brother and Kano san was apparently watching me.
“Maybe you told him not to stare at your girl?”
“I wouldn’t say that, I just told him to take good care of Suzuno.”
“……Hmm, so it’s all for Suzuno chan’s sake.”
Kano san seemed to be in a bad mood when she said those words.
