According to the map app, Mai’s house was located a few stops away from the nearest station where our high school is located by a private train.
It is the largest station in the area, and there are many facilities there.
It was probably where most of my classmates hung out with their friends after school.
Of course, I have no connection with this place, so I can only speculate …….
Well, …… in fact, the only time I come to this station is when I go to a certain major anime store.
I looked at the map app and wondered how to get to Mai’s house from here.
I notice that my current location and Mai’s house match on the app.
As I am tilting my head, wondering if it is an error, I suddenly see a huge towering condominium building in my field of vision.
I check Mai’s address again.
……It seems that the building in front of me is Mai’s house.
The place where I live is in the Tokyo metropolitan area, but it is quite suburban.
But even in such a place, a tower condominium was recently built in front of the station.
I had nothing to do with it, so I had never been particularly aware of it until now.
I never thought I would be going here.
I look up at the tower apartment again.
Even so, it’s probably not a house where a high school student would live alone…
As expected, Mai’s sense of money seems to be quite crazy.
Sighing, I enter the entrance room of the apartment from the entrance directly connected to the station.
Passing through the heavy automatic door, I was struck by the luxurious furnishings and interior.
As soon as I entered, I felt like I was in the wrong place.
And …… I felt uncomfortable, as if I was being judged.
I mean,…… actually, a middle-aged man who looked like the manager glanced at me and seemed …… to have a quizzical look on his face.
Maybe it’s my habit of thinking too pessimistically, but somehow I’m starting to feel like I’m being treated as suspicious.
Well,……, in fact, the atmosphere of the place has me in a state of shock, so I might look suspicious from the outside.
I was so embarrassed that I rushed to the auto-lock intercom and pressed Mai’s room number as if to escape.
Frankly, I want to get out of here as soon as possible.
After a short pause, “Yes?” I hear Mai’s voice.
“……This is Saeki ……,school papers–“
“Yui! Eh! No way! Why!”
Mai’s loud voice echoed through the intercom.
I was surprised at Mai’s exaggerated reaction,
“No, no, the teacher asked me…… paperwork–“
“Yui! I’m sorry! Wait there for a minute! Give me five minutes, or ……10 minutes! That’s all I need to …… get ready–put on my lip …… and then–oh! I have to be quick!”
Mai mumbles something incomprehensible and unilaterally hangs up the intercom.
Mai seemed to be in a great hurry, although I don’t know why.
I had assumed that Mai had been trying to get her homeroom teacher to send me…….
Well, …… I had no choice.
I had no choice but to wait in the hall.
There was a big sofa prominently placed in the hall, but I didn’t feel like sitting down.
Somehow I felt that if I sat down, someone would be angry with me. ……
I moved to the corner of the hall and leaned against the wall.
Even the wall was so polished that I involuntarily checked to make sure my back wasn’t dirty.
I was so surprised that even the walls were so polished that I had to check to make sure my back wasn’t stained.
……Even though I had no connection with it in my life, I was thinking about such
It was only a 10-minute wait, but it seemed awfully long, perhaps because I was nervous.
And, perhaps because Mai’s voice over the …… intercom had sounded so strange earlier, the pressure on the manager to look at me seemed to be increasing.
To distract myself, I decided to look up the rent of the tower apartment I was in on my phone.
On the screen of my phone, rent in the hundreds of thousands of yen is lined up in a row.
Incidentally, if I were to buy, the price was close to 100 million yen.
I couldn’t help but let out a sigh.
When I was shown the figures …… in this way, I realized once again the difference between Mai and my own circumstances.
However, I became more and more convinced of my idea.
After all, Mai is chock-full of money …….
