I shouldn’t have left them to go to the bathroom.
It took a little time to go to the bathroom in the yukata, which I was not used to, and by the time I hurried back to Hina and the others, it had already happened.
“–It’s fine. Let’s go around together.”
“I have already told you many times that I don’t want to go with you. ……!”
It is what is known as a pick-up
While I was feeling sorry for myself for not taking this into consideration, the flirtatious man continued his pick-up game.
“Don’t be so gloomy. See, it must be lonely to go to festivals with only girls, right? Hey”
“I’m waiting for someone ……!”
Hina had tears in the corner of her eyes as the pick-up man grabbed her left hand.
Sakine-chan, who is usually very strong, is hiding behind her sister, hugging the doll tightly and saying nothing.
She is probably scared of the forceful man.
As expected, I can’t turn a blind eye to this.
I wonder when this pick-up started.
If it was right after I went to the restroom, someone could have stopped them, but with so many people watching, no one seems to want to get involved in any trouble.
“—I’m sorry, I made you wait.”
I pulled the guy away from Hina so that she wouldn’t be in danger, and I smiled and entered the circle, creating a cheerful atmosphere.
“…… Hikaru.”
Hina’s beautiful eyes capture my image while swaying wildly.
Perhaps because an acquaintance appeared, I could see that her stiff expression relaxed a little.
“What is it, you? Can’t you see that I’m busy?”
And then, with the appearance of the interloper, the charlatan? The charlatan was gunning for me in a rattling manner.
Then, I recognized his face and said his name out loud so that everyone around me could hear.
“Well, well, well, look who it is, the ace of our high school’s soccer team, Murakami Riku Senpai, isn’t it?~”
“Oh, oh. You know him?”
The other person may have been a little upset that I knew about him, but I think the momentum I had before has weakened a little.
I can’t let this opportunity pass me by, so I’m going to fold it up.
“Yes, of course I know.”
“Then, it’s time to move on…….”
“I heard a rumor that he’s a good-looking guy in our high school, and that he recently got a new girlfriend. I think her name is – Arimura~ …….”
“Ah~, I get it, I get it.”
If I put aside the words of senpai and spoke out such information, senpai probably thought it would be even worse, so he also covered my words.
Speaking of which, I haven’t seen Arimura lately, I wonder what she’s doing. Well, it doesn’t matter.
My priority right now is to get out of this situation.
“I’m sorry, she had an appointment to go around with me.”
“Are you guys dating?”
I tried to avoid being asked, but they went to the trouble of asking me.
I’m not sure …
“We’re about to go on a date”
If I try to mislead or deny it here, I can see that senpai won’t back down.
So I decided to pretend to be her boyfriend.
“Ho-hmm? You’re her boyfriend? Ha-ha! You don’t even look right!”
Apparently, the boys were suspicious
I did my best to keep up appearances, but I still didn’t look good enough to walk next to her.
As I was at a loss for words, I heard a beautiful voice from the side
“–He is a very nice man ……! I love him so much, please don’t make fun of him……!”
As senpai was laughing at me, suddenly Hina entangled her own arm in mine.
She was smart enough to read the situation and pretend we were dating.
Then she glares at senpai with a snide glare.
Sakine-chan, too, wrinkles her brow and glares at senpai like a puppy making threats.
I didn’t miss the fact that Sakine-chan’s aggressive stance turned into a passive-aggressive one.
“Can I go now? I don’t want to get in trouble with the police for making too much noise.”
I said this and turned my gaze to the surroundings as if to say, “Look around you.”
Senpai caught my gaze and looked around him.
“I-I’ll let you off the hook for today.”
When the guys realized that they were the center of attention, they quickly ran away.
Thank goodness they were pretty timid.
“I’m sorry, I let my eyes go. ……”
When I tried to apologize, she put her index finger to my lips and covered my mouth.
“Thank you for helping me.”
“Hikarun onii chan, you’re so cool!”
“I’m sorry. Thanks. Let’s go then.”
I didn’t mention the date earlier because somehow I felt I didn’t have to.
So we went back to the summer festival.
In the process, Sakine held my left hand tightly, and Hina held my right arm tightly.
“We can’t lose each other again. Right, Sakine?!”
The Matsumura sisters then smiled and laughed at each other.
Hina, it’s okay to hold my arms, I won’t say, but it’s hitting me. ……
I don’t know if I should remind her of this at a time like this, but is the information true that you don’t wear an underwear when you are in a yukata?
I was the one who went around the festival stalls with such a thought in my mind for a while.
