“Moou~, you’re late.”
“You didn’t have to wait. The basketball team plays until the last minute, so you could have gone home.”
“I was just about to leave too. Then I saw Reo and Shizuku chan.”
“I never thought youd’d hear those two…”
“That’s impossible. They were so in love that I couldn’t really talk to them. I don’t think they could hear me.”
The two of them were almost famous for being an idiot couple on the way home.
They are keeping it attached, but I don’t think it’s a good idea.
“That’s why I was waiting for Ryoma. Let’s go home together.”
What can I say, I’m going home from school with a girl, even though we’ve known each other since childhood.
It’s a great situation, but the timing is really bad.
Shall I go to Arisa’s house after going home? That would be too much of a waste of time. It would only delay the dinner time and make Arisa angry.
“What’s wrong? You look so strange.”
Either way, since I am living with Tsumugi, it’s impossible to hide it.
I gave up and decided to talk.
“A part-time housekeeper at Arisa-chan’s house!? That’s what you were doing!?”
“That’s right. So, I feel bad for Tsumugi, but let’s decided to part ways.”
“I want to go too! Can I go with you?”
“Eh!”
The unexpected words of surprise came out.
“As expected, I can’t charge Tsumugi’s part time job.”
“I’m not! I just want to be friends with Arisa chan. I’ll have dinner with you! I’ll pay for it myself if I have to.”
I never thought it would end up like that. ……
I don’t know if I can take Tsumugi to Arisa’s house like this.
“I’ll ask Arisa, but if she says no, you’ll have to give up. Arisa’s house is a big house and I can’t go in there without permission.”
“I see! Not only is she beautiful, but she is also rich, isn’t she?”
Hmmm, however, I try to contact Arisa on her phone, but she doesn’t take my calls.
If I can’t reach her, I have no choice but to take her with me.
It’s not like me and Arisa are dating. It should be fine even if I took Tsumugi with me.
However, I wonder if it’s just my imagination that I feel like I’ll be getting a big kick out of it. ……
I haven’t walked like this with Tsumugi since I was 5 years old. We’ve both grown up, haven’t we?
Ah yeah
“In the end, what about the club activities? Have you found a club that fits you well?”
“Well. I had fun in all of them.”
“I happened to see you during a break. Maybe you should join the track team?”
“I guess you saw me. I like running and flying…..But,”
Tsumugi shook her head.
“Maybe not. I think it’s probably better not to join.”
“Why? What clubs were you in at your old school?”
“What clubs are Arisa chan and Shizuku chan in, Ryoma?”
The sudden change of topic left me unable to finish my sentence.
Tsumugi is smiling and waiting for the answer to her question.
Whew.
“Otsuki san is in the gardening club. True to her personality, she seems to like growing things. Apparently the vegetables grown in the gardening club are served in the cafeteria.”
“I see! The gardening club. I can’t tell her this, but maybe it’s not for me.”
“Tsumugi is suited for sports clubs, right? Arisa is not in any club right now.”
“Is that so?!”
She seemed genuinely surprised.
“She was also amazing in P.E. class. She’s fast and athletic,……, and I think I’ve never seen a girl who can move as well as or better than me.”
Asahina Arisa is not only beautiful.
Her Athletic ability is also outstanding, and the interesting look she showed in the sports test when she first entered the school was so beautiful that everyone could not help but admire her.
“I think Arisa is a really amazing girl, but it seems like the people around her won’t let her do that. She didn’t join the club because there were so many boys who wanted to be friends with Arisa.”
“Oh, ……,I see”
“I guess you’re not too surprised. I was quite surprised when I heard about it.”
“I don’t think it’s as good as Arisa-chan, but I have experience…”
There I noticed once again that my childhood friend had grown up very beautiful.
All the guys in the same class were paying attention to Tsumugi. The most popular one is probably Arisa, but Arisa hates men and throws quite a few hurtful words to other boys, so recently Tsumugi’s reputation has been growing.
Tsumugi treats everyone equally with kindness and a smile.
“I wish I could have joined the same club with Arisa chan. ……”
“You really liked Arisa, didn’t you Tsumugi?
“Yes! I’ve talked to her a lot today. There is still a distance between us, but …… I want to get to know her little by little. I want to get to know her too, Shizuku chan, and give her Reo’s bad reputation,…….”
“Don’t be too harsh.”
Tsumugi hits hard only against Reo.
No…I think that’s the true personality of Tsumugi that I know. After ten years…I can’t believe I’ve calmed down so much.
In the meantime, we arrived at Arisa’s mansion.
“You’re kidding,……, it’s a huge mansion!”
“It’s amazing when you first come here, isn’t it?”
It is a magnificent mansion that looks like it could be worth more than a hundred million dollars. The gate and the garden are well maintained, and it looks like the place for a wealthy person.
I remember the first time I went inside and knocked on the front door in the rain. If Arisa had not forgotten to close the gate, I might have been stuck in front of the gate.
“Arisa chan, she really is an amazing girl, right?”
She has overwhelming beauty and outstanding athletic ability. She is also the smartest girl in her grade and the daughter of a wealthy president.
How many girls in this world have all of this?
“I’m getting nervous ……. I wonder if it was a good idea for me to come here.”
“I haven’t heard back from Arisa.”
There is no read receipt, so she might not be looking at her phone. I wonder if she’s sleeping.
I have a duplicate key, but it would be awkward if I suddenly entered the room while she was changing, so I rang the intercom in front of the entrance.
I heard footsteps coming from the door. I wondered if Arisa would open the door.
“I wonder what kind of loungewear Arisa chan wears. I wonder if it’s a young lady’s style.”
The door was opened despite Tsumugi’s excitement.
Yes, the queen of the school, Asahina Arisa, is …….
“W-Welcome back! Master!”
For some reason, she was dressed in a maid’s outfit.
“What are you doing, Arisa ……?”
“Umm, you know. There is a reason for this. Ryoma is the master.”
“I don’t understand what you mean!”
Yes. I remember now. Her true form was a clumsy pretty girl with various weaknesses.
Why did I regard Arisa as a goddess?
“Wow, ……! Arisa chan is so cute!”
“Eh.”
The girl who had been looking so adorable came to her senses at the words of Tsumugi, and looked shocked.
“W-Why is Hiiragi-san here?”
“I didn’t know there was such a side to you, Arisa chan.”
“Ah…….I…Was seen! I was seen like this! Nooooo!!!!”
I looked up at the sky as Arisa’s screams roared and I knew it was definitely going to be a hassle.
