“…I’m sleepy.”

When I arrived at school in the morning, I was so sleepy that I collapsed on my desk.

Yesterday, Nanase told me not to go, so I couldn’t go to my room and ended up not sleeping at all until morning, which is why I’m so sleepy.

Well, it wasn’t all bad, though.

Nanase’s expression when she woke up in the morning, looking genuinely surprised, was really funny.

“Hey——-what’s up with you this morning?”

“Hmm…oh, it’s you…what’s up?”

“Ugh…you seem in a bad mood today.”

Saying “ugh” when looking at someone’s face is rude.

Normally, I’d give it back to him, but today I don’t even have the energy for that.

“Hey, are you really okay? If you’re feeling sick, I’ll take you to the infirmary.”

“No, I’m not sick.”

“Then what’s wrong?”

“I’m sleep-deprived.”

“What, you didn’t get enough sleep? What were you doing yesterday?”

“Playing a new game.”

I can’t say that I stayed up all night next to my sleeping fiancée.

“Haa…you’re an idiot.”

“…..”

I can’t say anything to that.

I never thought Kanata would be so disappointed in me.

“You did it too, didn’t you?”

“I haven’t been able to do much since I started living alone. Yui is so naggy.”

“I see.”

I guess her meticulous nature won’t allow Kanata to live a lazy life.

It’s such a shame…

“Well, don’t stay up too late. I was gonna drink this, but you can have it.”

He placed the can of coffee he was holding on the desk.

“Are you sure?”

“I’m sure you’ll do the same for me.”

“Sorry, that’s a big help.”

He’s actually quite kind at heart. That’s why I can get along with him.

Maybe I’ll treat him to a meal next time.

“It’s 1,500 yen.”

“Oi.”

“Just kidding.”

I’m taking that back. He’s still a jerk.

“Hey, are you okay?”

When I got home, Nanase asked me with concern.

“What’s wrong?”

“You’re obviously sleep deprived. You couldn’t concentrate at all today.”

As Nanase said, I couldn’t concentrate on the lesson at all today.

I managed to stay awake, but there were parts of the lecture that I didn’t take notes on.

“I’ll copy my notes for you later.”

“…I’m sorry.”

“I’m the one who should apologize. I think I caused you trouble yesterday…”

“No, Nanase, you didn’t do anything wrong. I was just being selfish.”

I just couldn’t ignore her sleep talk. She didn’t do anything wrong.

When Nanase is down, it makes me feel down too.

“But—“

“It’s okay, I’m…fi…..ne…”

Suddenly, an intense wave of sleepiness hits me, dulling my thoughts.  

I can’t even move my body because I’m too tired.  

“You’re not fine at all.”

“No, I’m fine.”

“Don’t be so stubborn. Your eyes are about to close.”

Now that she mentions it, my eyelids feel unusually heavy.  

This is bad…this sleepiness…

As I desperately tried to stay awake by slapping my face, Nanase sighed in exasperation at the sight.  

Then she tapped her own knee.  

“Lie down quickly. I’ll give you my lap.”
