“I personally don’t think it’s a good idea to take a high school student to an izakaya in the first place.”

“Now that you mention it, moreover that boy is wearing his uniform.”

Kano san and Mayo san were having such a conversation. Indeed, I can only see a future in which if I go to a pub in my uniform, I will be turned away the moment I go there. Well, it doesn’t matter because I have no intention of participating in the group date.

“Ah, I got a message back saying that one person could join.”

“By the way, what kind of person is he?”

“It’s a guy I met in English class, Kuzuhara.”

The moment she heard the name Kuzuhara, Kano san’s expression clearly clouded over.

“……Do you think this Kuzuhara might be someone in the economics department who belongs to the tennis club?”

“You know him very well, do you know him by any chance?”

“Well, a bit. I’m sorry that he’s willing to take the trouble to participate, but I think it would be better if you decline the offer with some suitable reason.”

“For you to say something like that, he must’ve been pretty dangerous…..”

“Yes, they tried to recruit me pretty forcefully during the New Year’s festival.”

I see, Kuzuhara must be the type whose brain and lower body are directly connected.

“Hmm, but I ended up inviting him because there was a vacancy at the group date. If I declined the offer badly, it would probably cause me trouble later on.”

“Yes, he’s the type that definitely seems to hold a grudge.”

The two of them had a troubled look on their faces. I would never let Kano san and such a dangerous-looking guy run into each other. Then there was only one course of action I would take.

“Then I’ll be participating in the group date, so please decline the offer on the grounds that you’ve already found a member.”

“Boy, what’s going on all of a sudden?”

“Yeah, I thought Yuito didn’t seem to be interested at all until just now.”

“I just wanted to get some social experience.”

I was too embarrassed to say that it was because I wanted to protect Kano san, so I said some random reason. Then, Mayo san has a grin on her face.

“Ah, maybe you’re trying to protect Kano?”

“Eh, really?”

“T-that’s not the reason.”

I was so upset by this sudden comment that I rushed to deny it, but it must have been obvious to her.

“There’s no need to be embarrassed, your behavior is really admirable.”

“Is what Mayo senpai saying true……?”

“….Yes, it is.”

I couldn’t stand Kano san’s eyes on me anymore, so I easily confessed. Yeah, I guess I’m not cut out to lie or hide things.

“I see, Yuito was trying to help me.”

When Kano san said that, her face turned bright red and she looked a little embarrassed. Wow, I didn’t know Kano san was this cute.

“I’m sorry to interrupt your lovey-dovey time together, but I think it’s time for us to move on.”

“R-right.”

“I-I understand.”

We looked at each other silently for a while, but Mayo san’s words brought us back to reality at once.

“I told Kuzuhara that I had found a member ahead of the others and declined the offer.”

“Did you have any trouble with him?”

“Yeah, I guess it was because I hadn’t told him about the members who were coming that he backed off rather easily.”

For now, I feel relieved. I’m not at all relieved in that sense because I have to go to a party for the first time in my life.

“So where are we heading now?”

“I’m going to get some clothes for you, I can’t let you attend in your school uniform.”

Mayo san answered my question. We went to a clothing store near the bookstore and began to pick out clothes.

“I thought this one would look good on you.”

“I think this combination will suit you as well.”

For a while, the two of them made me try on various clothes as if I were a dress-up doll. Both Kano san and Mayo san seemed to be in high spirits.

In the end, they decided on a relatively casual outfit of a white summer knit, black skinny pants, and a stainless-steel necklace.

“Yeah, it turned out well.”

“Yeah, this makes you look like a college student, Boy.”

The two look satisfied. Certainly, with my current appearance, I wouldn’t be turned away even at a pub.

“Oh, by the way, Yuito, put this on as well. It’s unisex and hasn’t been used before.”

“Why do you carry around fancy glasses, Kano san?”

“I bought them recently for fashion. Well, I haven’t used them once yet.”

Saying this, Kano san handed me a pair of dark glasses. I put them on and tried them on for the first time.

“Yeah, it looks good on Yuito after all.”

“Well, he has an intellectual boy feel and is quite cool.”

I didn’t feel too bad about being praised by both of them. Now that the preparations are complete, we begin to move towards the venue.

“Oh yeah, Boy, please introduce yourself as Kano’s classmate.”

“It’s true that it would be bad for Yuuto to call himself a second year high school student.”

“Okay, I’ll be a freshman at Sahoda University for tonight, so I’m counting on you.”

“Kano and I are going to follow up closely, so don’t worry about that.”

If I were to do it alone, there’s a very high possibility that I’d end up in trouble, so I’m really grateful for them to support me.

“Ah, I think it’s okay, but since we’re classmates, you can’t talk to me in honorific language during the group date.”

“Okay, I’m a little worried, but I’ll do my best.”

During the group date, I’ll talk to Kano san in the same way I would normally talk to Suzuno.
