“Nanahoshi? Is something wrong?”
Nanahoshi’s cheeks were flushed red and she was staring at me, so I asked her that, and she looked upset.
“Eh, eh! Um,……, T-Toiro-san, you just said that, but it doesn’t mean anything else, it’s just like a metaphor that it’s so good that you want to eat it every day, right?”
“Of course I did, but …… oh, so that’s what you meant.”
Perhaps because of the way I told her that it was so good that I wanted to eat it every day, she might have taken it as meaning that I wanted her to make it every day, if not ask her to make it every day.
I say this to eliminate that misunderstanding.
“I said it was so delicious that I wanted to eat it every day, but of course I didn’t mean to ask you to make it every day. I just wanted to tell you that it’s simply delicious. I’m sorry for saying it in a strange way.”
“N-no! I didn’t feel that way, it’s okay! However, I was surprised because wanting to eat it every day was often associated with marriage proposals and other occasions……., but it’s nothing!”
Nanahoshi muttered something in a voice that I couldn’t hear, and then said that out loud…I was worried about Nanahoshi, who was clearly acting strangely, but it seemed like nothing was wrong, so I don’t ask her about it
“In that case, let’s eat this delicious dish Nanahoshi cooked together.”
“D-delicious ……! Y-yes! By all means!”
After that, she and I started eating dinner together,…… and as we were both enjoying the food, I said what I should have said.
“By the way, Nanahoshi is a really good cook. …… I had my doubts at the time, but if it’s this good, I owe you an apology.”
“Don’t worry about it! As long as Toiro-san thinks my food tastes good, that’s all that matters to me!”
“Is that so?”
“Yes!”
Nanahoshi said with a smile.
……I was almost blinded by Nanahoshi’s smile for a moment, but I quickly turned my attention back to the food and decided to eat the dish Nanahoshi had prepared for me.
────After about 10 minutes, we both finished eating the food she had prepared
“It was really delicious, thank you, Nanahoshi.”
“I’m glad you said it was delicious too! …… If it’s all right with you, Toiro-san, will you eat my cooking again? …… at my house.”
“Oh, by all means, let me try your food.”
“……! Yes!”
When I answered that, nanahoshi said so in a loud voice and then tied her mouth in a happy smile.
…I was a little worried about what I would do if I did something I shouldn’t do at the opposite gender’s house for the first time, but in the end, it was just a good time, just like the time I usually spend with her.
“Then nanahoshi, I’ve finished eating the food that nanahoshi made for me as promised, and I’m going to leave.”
I got up from the sofa and Nanahoshi stood up as if in a hurry and said
“W-wait!”
When Nanahoshi said that to me and I turned to her, she looked somewhat embarrassed and said.
“T-Toiro-san,…… if you like, why don’t you come to my room?”
“…… Eh?”
…… Nanahoshi’s room?
“Why?”
I could not think of any reason for me to enter her room, so I genuinely asked her that, and Nanahoshi said, her cheeks still reddening as if she was embarrassed.
“Well,……I-I have a final exam coming up in a little while, and I’m totally useless except for English, so I was wondering if you could help me study, you seem to be very smart,…….”
I remember that I taught Nanahoshi as Magiri for the midterm before,……, but now as Toiro, right?
“……”
Mizushiro-senpai said that if you want to remain friends, you shouldn’t go into the other person’s room, or in this case, Nanahoshi’s room…I don’t know what those words mean, but this time I’m going to do it for study purposes. I probably don’t need to worry about that word.
If you just want to study, it doesn’t matter where you are.
“All right, I’ll teach you.”
“Thank you very much ……!”
When I decided to take Nanahoshi’s suggestion, me and Nanahoshi immediately headed to her room ──── and when we came to the door, she said ……
“This is my room! I’m going to open it!”
“Yeah”
Nanahoshi said and opened the door.
We both enter Nanahoshi’s room together.
The interior of Nanahoshi’s room had a stylish atmosphere with a round low table, bed, brown carpet, full-length mirror, wooden coat hangers, plants, bookshelves, and a lamp-like light with a Western feel.
“Stylish room, isn’t it?”
“T-thank you! Well, I’ll put the things I need for studying out on the table.”
“Yeah.”
After that, Nanahoshi put her pens, textbooks, and notebooks out on the table.
“Which subject is your weakest, Nanahoshi?”
I know that Nanahoshi’s weak subject is math, but that’s information I got as a Magiri…I used to get emotional and go out of my way, but I won’t make that mistake again, and I’ll be more careful about small details like this.
I asked her that and she answered me.
“Math! I managed to get through the last midterm, but I don’t know if I can get through this final. ……”
“Well, if that’s the case, I’ll focus on math.”
“Thank you!”
And as I declared, I began to teach nanahoshi math. ……After a while, nanahoshi stopped solving the equations.
“Is there something you don’t understand?”
“N-no! It’s not like that, but, you know,……, why don’t we take a break?”
It has been less than an hour since I started teaching math……
It’s up to each person whether they feel that studying for a little less than an hour is long or short, but it’s not surprising that studying for less than an hour on a subject you’re not good at can make your brain tired.
“All right, let’s take a break.”
“T-thank you!”
And so, Nanahoshi and I took a break next to each other, leaning against Nanahoshi’s bed.
Then Nanahoshi looked at me and said.
“You are really easy to understand, the way you teach, Toito-san! You can exercise, study, and really do everything!”
“That’s not true,……One I don’t have, the acting required for Nanahoshi’s modeling and drama appearances.”
“..Toiro is kind, isn’t he?”
Nanahoshi said this in a gentle voice, and then continued
“You helped me, you were able to do anything for me, and you also praised me and cared about me… In the spring, when I had just met Toiro san, I had a lot of mental problems. It was tough at times, but it was even more fun…I’m really glad I didn’t give up on continuing to be involved with Toiro-san.”
“Nanahoshi….”
While I was listening intently to Nanahoshi’s gentle voice and the fact that I didn’t have any words, Nanahoshi suddenly hugged me and said in a sweet voice
“As I said before, I …… want to do everything with such Toiro-san, so …… if only Toiro-san is okay, …… more deeply, I would like you to tell me …… more about Toiro-san.”
