“…..”
When I woke up in the morning, Towa san wasn’t in bed.
But that was normal.
I hardly ever woke up before her.
So she must be in the kitchen—
“…..She’s not here.”
In this small room, there was nowhere else to look.
I was alone in this room.
All that remained were her sweet scent and a few of her belongings.
Oh, this is it,
“I’ve done it—–!?!?!?!?”
I held my head and screamed.
What do you mean, ‘commit a crime’ or ‘r*pe’!?
If you say something like that with a dull expression, any woman would run away barefoot !
“Haa…..”
I had vaguely expected her to reject my confession. So, I wasn’t shocked by that itself.
The problem was what came next.
“Please take me. My heart—”
I couldn’t respond to those words.
It was the same as with my ex-girlfriend.
I haven’t changed at all.
I don’t even have the courage to hold onto the feelings of one girl I like…
“—-Itsuki san? I thought I heard a loud noise. Is something wrong?”
“…Huh !?”
“If it was um…..something like a spider or a cockroach, I’m sorry. I can’t be of any help…”
She opened the front door and entered the room with her usual carefree demeanor.
“Towa san…?”
I couldn’t help but stare at her beautiful silver hair and well-proportioned face.
Ah, as always, her maid uniform looks wonderful on her.
“…? Yes, it’s me, Towa san. Oh, Towa chan.”
“Towa chan?”
“Yes, Towa chan.”
Towa san came over to the bed and peered at my face curiously.
“Were you crying?”
“Eh !? No, I wasn’t crying !”
I wasn’t crying, probably.
If tears were flowing without me realizing it, then they must have been tears of the heart.
“I see. Well, that’s good then.”
Saying that, Towa san patted my head for some reason.
It felt so good that I almost let myself go, but I felt strangely embarrassed and turned my head away.
“…Where were you going?”
“I was going to throw out the trash.”
“Oh, I see…”
Her unexpected response made my body go limp.
“Come on, Itsuki san. Let’s have breakfast.”
Towa san urged me slightly, taking my hand and helping me out of bed.
“Why are you in such a hurry? It’s a day off today, isn’t it?”
Normally, she would have taken out the trash after breakfast.
“What are you talking about, Itsuki san?”
She puffed out her cheeks in annoyance.
“We’re going to look for our new room, aren’t we?”
“Eh…”
“Don’t underestimate the process of finding a new place. It’s fine to search online, but you still need to go there yourself and see it with your own eyes before deciding.”
Towa san explained in a calm tone, pointing her finger.
Then she gave a gentle smile.
“Today is going to be busy, you know♪”
It was a beautiful smile with a refreshing scent.
“…Haha. Ahaha.”
A laugh escaped my lips naturally, almost to the point of tears.
“That’s right, Towa san.”
I gripped the hand of the person I cherished tightly.
“Let’s go look for it. The room where we’ll live.”
“Yes…♪”
The autumn sky was clear, as if welcoming us.
