A few weeks have passed in the blink of an eye since that day when I attended the party. In the meantime, final exams, parent-teacher conferences, and other events have come to an end, and today is the last day of school before summer vacation.
After school, it is not too much to say that we have already entered the summer vacation, so the other classmates were in high spirits.
Today is the last day of school after the morning closing ceremony, cleaning, and long homerooms.
“Hey, Yuito. How did you do on your final exam this time?”
Kaito asked me while I was looking at the final exam report card given to me in the long homeroom. Kaito seemed to be in a good mood, so it was probably a good result.
“I came in fifth this time.”
“Seriously?”
“I want to exchange it for my report card.”
Kenji and Sho shouted when they heard what I said. The two of them were probably just as battered as they had been during the midterm test in May. It seems like they managed to avoid getting a red mark, but their parents would probably scold them if they showed the result.
As for me, I was quite satisfied because I had achieved the highest ranking ever. I think my brother will be in first place again, but I don’t feel as frustrated as I did before.
I used to feel miserable because I had a huge complex about my brother, but I realized that I was better than him in some ways.
Because of this, I feel much more comfortable than before. So my classmates feel like I’ve brightened up lately.
“Oh, that’s right. Since we’re here, why don’t we all go to the pool this afternoon?”
“I agree, it’s perfect on a hot day like today.”
“Sure, I’ll go with you. Summer’s for pools, right?”
“I’m fine with it.”
Kenji’s suggestion was met with immediate approval from Sho, Kaito and I. It’s been a long time since I’ve been in a pool, so I’m really looking forward to it.
“So which pool are we going to?”
“Around here, Tokyo Summer Hills is close by, so how about there?”
Hearing Kaito’s words, I suggested Tokyo Summer Hills. Tokyo Summer Hills is a heated glass domed pool that was built a few years ago.
It has water slides, Jacuzzis, relaxation pools, saunas, restaurants, etc., making it a place where people can enjoy themselves all day long.
“It’s certainly a big place, and I think you could spend a whole day there.”
“If we go too far away, it’ll be too tiring to go back, so let’s just go there.”
“Well, we’ve got club activities tomorrow.”
“Then it’s decided.”
Since there were no objections from the three of them, we decided to go to Tokyo Summer Hills. After chatting for a while, we split up and started heading home.
We were going to meet there after getting our swimsuits ready. When I arrived home, I pulled out my swimsuit that I had stored in the back of my closet. My physique hasn’t changed much since I wore it last year, so I’m sure it will fit me perfectly.
As I’m about to leave the house, I hear the sound of a motorcycle engine from outside.
“Hey, Yuito.”
“I knew it was you, Kano san.”
When I opened the front door, there was Kano san riding on a lime green motorcycle. I had a vague feeling like that, but it seems like it was Kano san after all.
“Aren’t you supposed to be taking a college exam this time of day?”
“Oh, I’m done with that. Unlike in high school, college students are allowed to leave the room midway through.”
“I see. So you didn’t skip the test.”
“Obviously, but if you skip a test, you’re guaranteed a failing grade.”
Kano san has the look of a modern gal with bright blonde hair and piercings, but inside she is extremely serious.
“So what are you doing here today?”
“I just came all the way over here to hang out with Yuito, who’s not busy anyway.”
“No, no, what on earth do you think I am?”
“Hmmm, a person of leisure?”
It seems that Kano san has a tremendous prejudice against me.
“Unfortunately, I already have plans for today.”
‘Oh, so that’s more important to Yuito than dealing with me?”
“I’d love to hang out with Kano san, but that’s my first appointment, so please bear with me.”
That’s what I explained to Kano san, who looked a little dissatisfied.
“……By the way, what are your plans?”
“I’m actually planning to go to Tokyo Summer Hills.”
The moment I said this, Kano san got off her bike and came up to me.
“Who are you going with? Are there girls there by any chance? Don’t tell me you’re flirting with another woman even though I’m here?”
“I-I’m going with those guys that Kano san met at the ball game the other day, so it’s only guys.”
Overwhelmed by the tremendous sword curtain, I stepped back a little and answered that. Kano san, who no longer hides her feelings for me, sometimes becomes like this, so I really need to be careful.
If I were to go out with Kano san in the future, if I were to accidentally get carried away and cheat on her, it would be a bloodbath without a joke.
“Hmm, then I can go too, right?”
“Eh, that’s…….”
“Maybe something bad will happen if I’m there?”
“……I understand, you can come.”
I could no longer stand the pressure from Kano san, and I had no choice but to fold. Today was the first time in a while that I was going to have fun with just guys, but it doesn’t seem like that’s going to happen.
