“……I was scared just now because of the atmosphere and the wind that was going by for a bit, but when I held hands with Toiro-san, I felt all at ease!”
“That’s good to hear.”
So far, it seems that nanahoshi has become much more stable because there is no element of surprise, with only music, dolls and spooky figurines to produce horror.
However, if this haunted house is serious about its main goal, which is to scare people, then perhaps……
With this in mind, I turned the corner of the passageway with Nanahoshi and ────
“Gooaaaah!”
A person wearing a zombi-like headdress suddenly extends his arm from around the bend ────
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!”
Nanahoshi screamed out and increased the force she put into her clasped hands.
“Are you alright?”
“III-I’m fine!”
Even as she says that, Nanahoshi doesn’t relax the strength in the hand that’s connected to mine. …… This is not okay.
I bail lightly to the person wearing the zombie’s headdress, and then I take Nanahoshi a little further ahead and stop to face Nanahoshi.
“Let’s take a little break here and go.”
” ……! I’m sorry!”
“Don’t worry about it, if you’re not good at it, it’s all right.”
“T-thank you very much. …… but …….”
After Nanahoshi expressed her gratitude to me, she paused for a moment before adding.
“Well…I don’t know what to say, but the reason why I brought Toiro san here today was…I thought it would be a good idea to have a chance to touch Toiro san who I love. That’s why I brought you here.”
‘……, you’re so honest.’
“…Actually, I had a little more leeway and was planning to make Toiro-san’s heart pound, but it turned out to be more scary than I imagined…In the end, I was able to hold hands with Toiro-san. But if I was really scared and Toiro san did something like this, it would be like I was just taking advantage of Toiro san’s kindness… By making him pay attention to me like this, I was just causing trouble. Sorry about that.”
Although the situation of being in a haunted house is scary, her ideal is for her to actively engage in what is called an attack to shorten the physical distance between her and me.
But now, Nanahoshi thinks that she’s just causing trouble because she’s scared of the haunted house, and apologizes for that.
In response, I shook my head and said.
“I don’t think it’s a nuisance, so you don’t have to apologise …… and I knew Nanahoshi had that intention from the moment we decided to go to the haunted house.”
Well, this is because I had heard the conversation between her and Mizushiro-senpai as Magiri beforehand.
When I replied so, she said with a surprised look.
“Eh! Did you know that?!”
“Yeah….., so even holding hands like this was in my mind as a possibility, so there is no need for Nanahoshi to apologise anywhere.”
‘B……, but I invited you for such a wicked reason and made you feel uncomfortable ──── .”
“Isn’t it true that you’re not good at horror? I mean, I haven’t asked you that, but I’ve been watching you for a long time, so I understand… In that case, it’s normal to rely on someone else in times like that, isn’t it? ”
“Torio san,…..Toiro-san!’
Nanahoshi called my name and hugged me from the front.
“I love you, …… I love you, Toiro-san!”
“……’
It’s so dark that I don’t think the people in the class who are putting on this show can see who we are. ……
“How can you say that so openly in a place like this?”
“eheheh, I can say it over and over again, can’t I? Because I love you”
It should be dark and difficult to discern facial expressions, but I thought I could clearly see only her bright smile.
Then, we held hands again and continued straight to the exit of the haunted house.
At some points, Nanahoshi screamed, but her screams were not only fearful and surprised, but even her fear and surprise turned into screams of enjoyment.
Even if it’s something she’s not good at, she’s enjoying it to the best of her ability…Nanahoshi is truly dazzling…I really enjoyed being able to spend time with her
