And then the day of the date arrived.
On Sunday, Seika dressed up and made her way to the neighboring prefecture.
Their usual hangout is in Ota Ward, Tokyo.
From there, they took the JR train to a large shopping complex located just across the Tama River.
“I hope this is okay… I hope I don’t look weird…”
Seika had been fidgeting for a while now, tugging at the hem of her skirt and fiddling with her hair.
Today’s outfit was something Seika had chosen after agonizing over it for a long time.
A light blue short denim jacket, paired with a slightly sheer blouse.
And a pale pink long skirt.
(Achi-kun sees me in miniskirts all the time… So I thought a slightly more demure look might seem fresh…)
If anything, she actually prefers outfits that show more skin.
It’s May, after all.
The temperatures were starting to rise.
However, rather than choosing what she wanted to wear, Seika picked an outfit to please Houtarou.
“…Are you really okay with that?”
Last night, she had Miyuki do a final check on her outfit.
She showed Miyuki something that wasn’t the kind of clothes Seika usually wore.
Miyuki asked her a question.
Was she forcing herself too much?
(……I’m not pushing myself too hard, Miyuki-chan.)
It’s true that today’s outfit isn’t really her style.
If asked whether this is the real her, the answer might be no.
(But there’s no lie in this “me” who likes Achi-kun. This, too, is the real me!)
She felt she should show the side of herself that cares about Houtarou.
(I don’t know if he’ll get it… I probably won’t… but that’s okay.)
Seika took a deep breath to psych herself up.
…But immediately, she crouched down right there.
“Ugh… Is this gross? Is it too heavy?”
