I took more care than usual with my appearance for my date with Haruka.

“Okay! This is about right.”

But I’m still nervous when it comes to going on a date.

Today is the day of the date, so I really have to go all out.

I headed to the meeting place and arrived 30 minutes before the appointment, but Haruka was already there.

It is not that I have never seen Haruka in her casual clothes, but I thought she was more enthusiastic than usual today and looked absurdly cute.

Her blonde hair is used to good effect and the overall fashion is well-balanced.

People around me were also glancing at Haruka.

I was so taken aback by the sight of her that Haruka noticed me and came running towards me.

“Yahooo, Akuru~”

“Oh, you’re so early, Haruka, did you have to wait for me?”

“No, I just came here about five minutes ago too!”

“I see, you’re always cute, but today you’re even cuter than usual.”

“Hehehe, thank you… and Akuru is even cooler than usual♪”

“Then that’s good, because it’s a date and I’ve come with a lot of enthusiasm.”

“I see… I’m glad you’re getting into it on a date with me.”

“It’s natural.”

Then Haruka hugged my arm as we began to walk.

“Akuru~where are we going from here?”

“Well, after all it’s our first date and I want to buy something for Haruka, so let’s go shopping.”

“Eh, are you sure? I’m not going on a date with you because I have money, you know?”

“Yeah, of course I know that, but in times like this, I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t hesitate to ask me.”

“You really don’t mind, do you?”

“Of course not!”

“Yay♪”

I get an allowance from my parents every month.

And that’s one million yen, which is quite a lot of money.

Before my reincarnation, I heard that Sano AKuru used to spend one million yen a month for fun, but now I didn’t touch it at all, so I had accumulated three million yen in three months’ worth.

Of course I told my parents I didn’t need that much, but they wouldn’t listen, saying that if I didn’t use it, I should save it and save it up and use it one day.

Besides, Haruka couldn’t buy many clothes and other things because of her family’s circumstances.

In the game, Haruka often looked at fashion magazines.

In fact, she was very interested in fashion, but she had given up on it because of her family background.

That’s why I want Haruka to enjoy fashion without worrying about money.

“Akuru- hurry up~”

Haruka was excited as she approached the shop.

I naturally smiled when I saw Haruka like that.

“Haruka, you can freely choose as much as you want, you don’t have to worry about the price.”

“But that’s as expected…”

“No, I’d rather you be selfish.”

“Well, if Akuru says so… then I’ll take it, okay?”

“Yeahh.”

When I said that with a smile, Haruka also smiled and started looking at the clothes.

On the way, she asked me to choose one, but I declined because I don’t know much about women’s fashion.

Haruka went into the fitting room and started changing.

After she finished changing, the fitting room opened.

“Akuru – look at this~”

The one she showed me was a more relaxed fashion than the gals, which I thought was unexpected, but it suited Haruka perfectly.

“Yes! You’re so cute.”

“Thanks! Then I’ll wear this one next time.”

Haruka went into the dressing room again and began to change.

“Tadaa”

She came out of the dressing room saying that.

The next fashion was a gal-like fashion that suited her well, but was a little too revealing and I didn’t want her to wear it too much.

“Well, I think it looks really good on you and you look cute, but it’s a bit…”

“I knew it was too revealing♪ It’s okay – I only wore it now because I only wanted to show it to Akuru♪”

Haruka said this with a ridiculous grin.

I just blushed and looked away.

“You’re embarrassed, it’s so cute♪”

“Just hurry up and change your clothes.”

“Yes.~”

After that, she changed several clothes, but in the end, she decided to wear the first.

“Thank you, Akuru”

“Oh, you know, I could have bought you a few more outfits if you wanted?”

“No, I’ll buy those on our next date♪”

I was shocked when Haruka said this while looking up at me.

I thought Haruka gradually started grinning.

“Akuru, didn’t you feel a thrill just now?”

“Yes, I did, but you’re really making fun of me today.”

“Because I think your reaction is so cute♪”

Haruka says such things, but she’s so cute that it’s bad for my heart.

“Akuruu! Where are we going next?”

“Well, I was thinking of going to the movies, is there anything you want to see?”

“Then let’s go see the movie that’s popular right now, The Road That Leads With You”

“Ah, the current hot romance film?”

“Yeah!”

“Then let’s go.”

When Haruka and I arrived at the cinema, we were trying to choose our seats.

“Well, where should we sit, do you prefer the front or the back?”

“Which do you prefer, Akuru?”

“I’m fine either way.”

“Then, here!”

The seat Haruka chose was the couple’s seat.

“Then, let’s go♪”

“Right.”

We bought drinks and popcorn and headed to the theatre.

The film started and Haruka was watching it like she was devouring it.

During the film, Haruka came and leaned on me.

Her face was reddish, which was obvious even in the dark.

I held her hand.

Towards the end of the film, there was a kissing scene between the hero and heroine.

When Haruka saw the scene, her face became redder than before and she looked at me.

I looked at her and took her lips.

We kissed for only a few seconds, but when we looked at each other afterwards, we both felt embarrassed and turned away from each other.

After the film was over, we went outside and it was dark.

“Oh, that was fun.”

“Yeah, the story was even better than I imagined.”

“Hey, Akuru, what do you want to do for dinner?”

“Of course I’ve got a reservation at a restaurant.”

“Is that an expensive place?”

“Well, yeah.”

“I don’t know anything about manners.”

‘Don’t worry about that. We’re VIPs, so we get a private room.”

“I see! Then I feel safe♪.”

We arrived at the restaurant and a man in a dinner jacket led us into a private room.

“Akuru! This place is too much!”

“Well, I’m glad you’re happy.”

“Hey, Akuru! I don’t know what’s good here, so can I leave it to you to order?”

“Okay, my special course, then?”

“Yes!”

Haruka was surprised when the food was brought out.

“Akuru, what kind of food is this?”

“Oh, it’s…”

I explained the dishes as they were brought in, and Haruka ate them with a glint in her eye, looking delicious.

“Pwah, that was delicious, thank you for the food.”

“Thanks for the food.”

“Thanks, Akuru! I had fun today.”

“Yeah, I had a crazy time too.”

After a short pause.

“Hey, Haruka…”

“What is it, Akuru”

“I’ve been thinking, the more I spend time with Haruka, the more I like you.”

“Yeah.”

“Remember what I said before?”

“I remember.”

“Then I’ll say it again.”

“Yeah.”

“The fact that I care about Haruka hasn’t changed, just as it did before. However, I love Haruka more than before. I can now say clearly, Haruka, please go out with me. I love you.”

When I say this with a serious expression, Haruka smiles and cries.

“Of course, I’ve been waiting for you ……”

Our faces naturally got closer and gradually we were lip kissing.

After a few minutes, we parted our lips and Haruka said

“Hey, Akuru? We’re lovers now, aren’t we?”

Haruka said with an entranced expression.

“Yes, we are.”

“I’ve been waiting for you for a long time, so… after this ……”

I’m not that insensitive, so I know what Haruka wants to say.

I smiled and said…

“It’s okay if you don’t say anything, let’s go.”

“…Yeah.”
