When I said my fake name, which I had just thought of on the spur of the moment, Nanahoshi said in a cheerful tone of voice
“You must be Toiro san right~!”
I was surprised to hear her call me by my first name when we first met, just like a popular person in the class.
“Hey hey! You are an actor, aren’t you, Toiro-san?!”
“No, I’m an ordinary person.”
“Eh~l! You are so cool, I thought for sure you were an actor!”
I know cool is subjective and different people have different tastes and types of faces that they like, but maybe I should stop going out with my hair up so I don’t hit that preference with whoever I’m with in the future…… However, I would have to stop going to the gym because I definitely feel depressed with my bangs while working out at the gym and on my way home from the gym, but I’m not even in a club to stay mediocre, so that would mean less opportunity for exercise────
“How old are you, Toiro san!?”
I was unintentionally deep in thought when Nanahoshi asked me such a question.
Age huh,……, but since there’s no particular reason to lie about it, I’ll just answer honestly here.
“I’m 16 years old, a freshman in high school.”
“Eh, you’re my age! But I’m glad! If you were an adult, there would have been a lot of trouble, but if we were the same age, I don’t think there would be any problem. ────”
Nanahoshi continued, operating her phone with her pink-nailed hands, showing me the screen of her phone showing her contacts app and saying
“Please exchange contact information with me!”
────I thought I had done it when Nanahoshi made that suggestion.
I’m in the category of height that is considered tall, so it wouldn’t have felt strange if I said I was a little older…And if I say I’m an adult, then Nanahoshi would be deeply involved in me. Even if she tried, I could refuse.
With such regret, I say.
“I refuse.”
“Why?!”
“Because there is no reason to exchange.”
When I answered clearly, Nanahoshi’s eyes widened and then she said.
“If you had a reason to exchange ……, would you exchange it?”
“I wouldn’t say that, ────”
“I want to thank you.”
Nanahoshi interrupted my words and continued.
“If it weren’t for Toiro-san, I’m sure I’d be in terrible trouble,……, so I want to thank Toiro-san for saving my life!”
I say to Nanahoshi, who insists so strongly.
“You don’t have to thank me, just don’t go out late at night from now on.”
“No! I would feel bad if I didn’t thank you! Just once, let me have dinner with you sometime!”
“You don’t have to do that. ────”
“If you don’t let me pay you back, I’ll stay with you for the rest of the day!”
“Eh…..?”
“I just want your contact information so that we can arrange a date! If you say no to that, then I’ll follow you no matter how late or how early in the morning it is today to get your address directly!”
It’s amazing how dynamic a first-year high school student can be, modeling and starring in a TV drama.
At this rate, it looks like she’ll be following me until the early hours of the morning…I can’t help it.
“All right, I’ll trade you then.”
“Thank you!”
After that, me and Nanahoshi exchanged contact information, Nanahoshi bowed her head to me and said.
“Toiro-san! Thank you so much! I’ll make sure to thank you for this!”
“Yeah…. yes Nanahoshi, are you close to home?”
When I asked her that, Nanahoshi put her index finger to her mouth and said
“If I said it was far, Toiro-san would give me a walk, so I’d say it’s far, but it’s close────, so it’s okay! I’m going to run home now!”
“I see.”
Saying this with a smile at the end, Nanahoshi waved at me and then ran off.
“Well, I guess it’s not a bad idea to treat someone just once, especially if it makes them feel better.”
I handed the two large men over to the police and went home.
◇Nanahoshi side
The moment she closed the front door, she collapsed to her knees ──── held her mouth with both hands, her cheeks flushed red as she muttered in a small voice
“I fell in love…… at first sight.”
────This was the beginning of Nanahoshi Chiha’s first love.
