[Toiro san! Can we talk about cooking for you at my house this Sunday? Of course, if your schedule doesn’t allow it, we can make it out!]
[Sunday is fine, and I’ll look forward to meeting you then.]
[Me too! I’m looking forward to meeting you then]
When I arrived to school, Nanahoshi called me to the rooftop, and as soon as I arrived at the rooftop, she said,
“Magiri! Wanna go out with me after school today?”
I have often found it hard to understand what Nanahoshi does and says ────, but today was so abrupt that it was quite incomprehensible.
Up until now, the only times I’ve ever gone out with her were for special events like swimming tournaments, and I don’t think we were in a relationship where we would normally talk about going out together.
“Why?”
When I asked her that, Nanahoshi began to speak, looking somewhat embarrassed.
“Actually, last night we decided that the day I’m going to invite the person I like to my house is this Sunday,……, so I wanted Magiri to come with me today and pick out the clothes I’m going to wear for that day.”
“I understand the situation …… , but why me? I don’t know much about clothes, and if I were to give you an example, it would be better if you went with one of your friends or something.”
“I don’t know if boys will like it if I pick out clothes with my girl friends! Besides,…… I’m sure Magiri has similar sensibilities to him, so I want Magiri to pick out the clothes with me.”
That’s a tremendous sense, for someone who doesn’t realize that my true identity is Toiro
Is this a so-called intuition peculiar to women, or is Nanahoshi simply discovering the commonalities between Magiri Iroto and Toiro while interacting with me?
“What happens when I say no?”
“I’ll go back to the classroom and cry and scream and beg Magiri as many times as I can.”
“I’ll gladly accept your offer.”
“Thanks!”
It’s no laughing matter for me to be asked while her crying out in a classroom, a place where dozens of people come and go, so I have no choice but to gladly accept the request.
And then ──── after school.
I and Nanahoshi came to a clothing store in a shopping mall in the city.
“I’m going to try on some clothes now, and you can tell me which ones you think are good okay”
“Okay.”
When I replied, Nanahoshi happily put the clothes one by one into the basket.
…I only take a certain amount of care when it comes to clothes, but I’ve never had the fun of choosing clothes like she does now, so seeing her having fun choosing clothes gives me a refreshing feeling.
While I was feeling this way, Nanahoshi had put about five outfits in her basket before I knew it.
“Yeah, I think this is how I feel for now. …… There’s a fitting room over there, follow me.”
“Yeah.”
I follow her as she tells me.
If it’s 5 outfits, then it seems like it will take less time than I thought.
With that thought in mind, Nanahoshi arrived in front of the fitting room and said as she looked towards one of the fitting rooms.
“Look, look, I cried in that fitting room before.”
“Eh, ……?”
“I’m not using a metaphor, okay? I really cried, and at that time the person I cared about was blatantly avoiding me, and I think I was sicker than I’ve ever been in my life.”
Come to think of it, I think I’ve heard that story before, but I didn’t realize it was in that fitting room in front of me now in this clothing store. …… It’s a little awkward somehow.
“I’d like to go shopping with that person someday, but since Magiri and he doesn’t seem to have much interest in that kind of thing, I’m sure he won’t come even if I invite him.”
“….. Nanahoshi, you’re going to change now, right?”
“Eh? Yes, I am though”
“I’m sorry, but do you mind if I step out for a moment?”
“Sure, why not?”
“….. for a moment okay.”
I left the dressing room, leaving Nanahoshi in the dressing room with a confused look on her face.
Then, I come to the mirror in front of the bathroom.
” …….”
I know that what I am about to do is a risky and logically speaking only disadvantageous act,……, but if I have caused her to shed tears because of me, I have to make it up to her.
With that in mind, I picked up the styling products that I always bring with me just in case────I immediately did a hair up haircut and headed to the fitting room of the clothing store where she is located.
