When the swimming competition finished, me and Nanahoshi left the venue together and headed for the station.
“When I went to Aoi-senpai’s place to congratulate her for winning two times in a row today, I was really shocked when I heard that Aoi-senpai couldn’t compete in this meet because she was injured, but I’m really glad that she won because she’s a special high schooler and the other were fast too~!’
…… Aoi senpai.
I’m sure Aoi was Mizushiro-senpai’s first name, but Nanahoshi seems to have started calling her by her first name at some point.
They probably haven’t talked much, but when it comes to the degree to which girls open up to each other, I can’t even imagine how quickly they open up to each other.
“Especially the one in the second game! I don’t think Magiri saw it, but that guy was different from the others, or …… that’s exactly what a professional is like!”
“Really?”
“Yeah!
Well, I have an even bigger regret in that second game,…….”
I’ve been hearing about Nanahoshi’s regrets endlessly since we met up in the audience seats just before the third game started, so I can already tell what kind of regrets she has.
“Was it that you wanted to cheer for someone you cared about because he was a player in the second match?”
“Yes, that’s right!
Mouu~! I don’t know if I’ll ever have the chance to cheer for that person who is participating in the tournament in the future~! Ahh~! Why didn’t I realise he was playing!”
It is impossible to recognise at a glance a person whose face and head are hidden in the bleachers, at a certain distance from the players, without knowing in advance that he or she will be playing in the tournament, how many matches he or she will be playing in, and which high school he or she will be attending.
“But that person wasn’t in that good of a ranking either, so he said he’s glad you didn’t find out about him, right? If that’s the case, I don’t think he’s that worried.”
“That person and Magiri don’t understand at all!
I want him to get a high ranking, but I don’t care about the ranking, I just wanted to support that person who is working hard on what’s in front of me right now by calling his name loudly!”
“…… I see.”
You want him to get a high ranking, but you want to cheer him on regardless of his ranking. ……?
……While I can sort of understand what you’re saying, it seems difficult for me to understand it, at least right now, because I can’t help but feel a kind of contradiction.
……I wonder if one day I will be able to think that way about something.
While thinking about this, I returned home to the same station with Nanahoshi, and we separated at the station.
If it’s true, I’d be in the same direction as Nanahoshi up to the middle, but it might seem unnatural if she parted ways with me like Toiro at exactly the same time.
So I took a little diversions home, and when I entered my room, I sat down on a chair……. Even though I swam as hard as I could, the time I spent swimming was so short that my body didn’t feel any kind of fatigue.
While I was thinking that, I heard a notification beep from my smartphone.
I look at its screen and see ────
[Aoi]
The message was from Mizushiro-senpai.
…… Today, after I had finished changing in the athletes’ waiting room at the special school, Mizushiro-senpai asked me to exchange contact details in order to adjust the schedule for swimming practice, and although I really did not want to exchange contact details, once I was told that it was to adjust the schedule for something I had accepted, I accepted it because I couldn’t refuse.
Therefore, I am sure that this message is a message to adjust the schedule.
This is the second time I’ve exchanged contact details with a girl, but it’s hard to get used to this sudden feeling of messages flying at you.
While thinking about this, I opened the message from Mizushiro senpai.
It seems that two messages have come in, so I read through the first one first.
“Thank you very much, Iroto-kun, for today I was able to win thanks to you…But next year, I’ll make sure that nothing like this happens again, and I’ll make sure to win the championship as the swimming club of special High School, so next year as well. Come and see! I’ll give as many tickets as you want!”
I see, although the last part shows Mizushiro-senpai’s character, the rest of the message is a solid thank-you message.
Maybe when I meet her in person, she seems a little awkward to me, but through text messages, she’s easy to talk to.
Then I look through the second message.
“So! I think it’s too early to adjust the practice schedule all of a sudden, so I’ll try again after next Monday, but I wanted to thank you for today! ! So when we practice, I’ll wear whatever swimsuit you want me to wear! I don’t think you could see my body at all in the school swimsuit, but this time it’s okay if it’s quite racy! However, you might get so fascinated by onee san’s stimulating body that you won’t be able to concentrate on your practice, so be careful!!”
“……”
I erased everything from the beginning of the second message from my memory ────
“I’ll go see it again next year if my schedule allows, and I understand about the schedule arrangement.”
I replied only to the first message and immediately closed the message screen.
“…… haa”
I shouldn’t have felt tired until just now, but I suddenly felt tired, so I thought I’d take a bath, even if it’s a bit early.
Just as I was thinking that, I heard a notification sound from my smartphone again.
[Nanahoshi Chiha]
Next, a message from Nanahoshi to Toiro?
I opened that message, thinking that I should check it before taking a bath.
“Toiro san! Thank you so much for your hard work in today’s competition! If only you are okay, Toiro-san, please let me know if you ever have the chance to attend any more conventions or other events in the future! I’ll buy tickets for all of them and go support all of them! And about the launch tomorrow, the meeting place is the same as before and the time is 2pm, please!”
Although the message is a message with a touch of Nanahoshi, it feels somewhat more sane compared to Mizushiro-senpai’s message earlier.
“Okay, I’ll be looking forward to seeing you tomorrow.”
When I replied, the message was immediately read and ────
“Yes! Me too!”
I closed the message screen and decided to take a bath. ──── Then, the next day.
I did my hair up and got a haircut and headed to the meeting point with Nanahoshi as Toiro.
