(Okay, today is the day.)
I had been thinking of doing something to repay Ayaka for all the trouble I had caused her with Misaki Hananoi incident, but I was embarrassed to have shown my shameful appearance, and already a month had passed.
There was a possibility that I would do nothing and forget about it, but I could no longer run away.
I push down my embarrassment and knock on Ayaka’s room.
When I opened the door, Ayaka was lying on her bed reading a manga.
“What?”
Ayaka asks me what I want, looking a little impatient rather than grumpy.
“I’m sorry to bother you now, but I wanted to thank you for the day of the interview.”
“Thank me? I didn’t do much, did I?”
“No, I’m thanking you for the trouble in the infirmary. Besides, there are other things…”
As I said this, I remembered what happened back then and let out a small sigh.
“…Well, if you’re gonna thank me, I’ll take your word for it.”
Saying that, Ayaka showed me her smartphone.
What I saw in the photo was a nondescript park in the middle of nowhere.
“Do you wanna go to this park?”
“It’s where I wanna go most right now.”
“It’s just any park, right?”
“Actually, it’s a sacred place from my favorite manga !”
In Ayaka’s room, there is a large bookshelf with comic books laid out on it.
The curtains are hung and the books are covered with book covers, so I don’t know what they are about.
“Can you come with me here?”
“I don’t mind, but….how is that gonna repay you?”
“Just take my picture, that’s all I need.”
“Well, if that’s alright with you……”
“Hm, then.”
Saying that, Ayaka began reading the rest of the manga.
Previously, when a poster of Ayaka’s favorite idol was put up, she took me out without even asking my opinion, but this time we decided to discuss it properly.
Ayaka has grown up.
As I was about to leave the room, feeling this deep in my heart, I suddenly thought to myself.
Since we’re going there, I thought it would be more fun if I knew what the manga was about.
“Hey, which manga is the one with the park in it?”
I asked, picking up a suitable one from among the many manga.
“Wait !? That one is !? No !”
Ayaka rushes to the scene and I quickly avoid her.
Ayaka hits her head on the floor and writhes in agony.
“……,Are you all right?”
“I-I’m fine…I mean ! Don’t read it without permission !”
I stare at Ayaka’s face.
“W-what !”
She’s extremely anxious.
Her eyes told me it was something I should never see.
That’s the kind of thing I want to see, so I open the book in my hand.
“Hey !? Wa–“
On the page I opened, there was a scene where a blonde-haired handsome guy was being wall-slammed by a bespectacled handsome guy, and he was blushing.
“・・・・”
“U-uwa—–! !”
Ayaka’s face turned bright red and she stuck her nails out at my face.
I succeeded in grabbing Ayaka’s hand just in time.
“Wait !?Calm down !”
“You saw it ! You’ve done it ! I’ll kill you !”
Ayaka was screaming incoherently and went berserk.
I let go of her grip and pulled her back.
“Calm down ! I didn’t see anything.”
“That’s a lie ! You think I’m a pervert who likes BL anyway ! That’s right ! I’m a pervert !”
“Listen to me ! Seriously, I’m not grossed out, I’m just a little surprised…”
When I say that, Ayaka falls silent with teary eyes.
“I won’t turn you away just because you like BL. Isn’t it good to have something you like?”
“…Do you really think so?”
Ayaka looks at me with worried eyes, and I give her a thumbs up.
“I’d rather respect you ! It’s amazing that you can be so passionate about something like this !
It kind of makes me want to watch it too.”
Just because I’ve never read BL doesn’t mean I have any resistance to it.
In fact, when I look at the works I have now, I’m intrigued by the quality of the artwork.
“You just said that you wanna see !”
She must have been very happy that I showed interest, because she said it with excitement.
“Oh, is that park a sacred place in this comic book?”
“Yes, yes it is !”
Ayaka is more excited than I have ever seen her before.
Perhaps this BL is an important piece to Ayaka.
“If so, I must read it even more so I can enjoy it.”
“Yeah ! I think it’s a good idea ! I have all the volumes, so you should read them properly !”
I think it’s cute when I see Ayaka innocently frolicking around like a child.
“I’ll read them, then. By the way, where does this park come to play?”
It might be a spoiler, but there are so many volumes, after all.
I asked her so that I could at least read up to the point where the park appears in the book.
“The park will appear around volume 15.”
I was surprised to find out that the park would appear in the book sooner than I had expected, and I was even more eager to read the book.
At the same time, I became interested in the park.
I was supposed to be thanking Ayaka, but I’m starting to look forward to the park.
“I read it a long time ago, but I still remember it clearly.”
Ayaka says with a dreamy expression.
“That blue scene in the park”
“Okay ! Park is denied !”
I shouted in a cheerful voice.
