“Tokiwa-kun……geez, I’ll follow you for the rest of my life.”
I’ve always had a thing for cute things.
I love cats, and I have a lot of big stuffed animals in my room.
And the stuffed animal I found today was the first one in a long time that really surprised me.
I had stopped by the arcade to get something for Tokiwa kun, but I ended up spending the money on myself.
But I was too clumsy to take it.
But instead of me, he kindly took it for me.
Why did he come to the arcade?
No, he must have followed me because he was worried about me.
I like him for that, too, because he is kind.
I also like the fact that he spent money to get the stuffed animal for me and gave it to me as a gift casually, without saying a single word of indebtedness.
“I love him. Maybe I’ll go home with it today.”
But I wonder if he’s going home first today?
I haven’t made dinner yet, so Tokiwa kun might make it himself.
I want to thank him.
Anyway, I have to go home.
I don’t want him to bring the girl he was with yesterday into his house.
I have to punish the woman who seduces Tokiwa kun.
Hey, Panda san.
I don’t want you to get dirty today, so you’ll have to stay at home.
“Ehehe, ehehe.”
♤
“Haa…..there’s just so much going on these days.”
As soon as I get home, I sit down on a chair in the kitchen and talk to myself.
My hands still can’t stop shaking.
When was the last time I was so nervous?
It’s as shaky as when I was forced to perform in front of a large audience at a piano recital a long time ago.
“…..I hope I didn’t cause her any trouble.”
Did Hyori senpai take the stuffed animal I left behind after that?
If that’s the case, I wonder what she thought of me.
The fact that a junior boy, whom she’s only recently started seeing frequently by chance, suddenly handed her a stuffed animal is a little scary if I were in the opposite position.
I wonder why I did that.
I would never have done it under normal circumstances.
“….When I look at Senpai’s face like that, it’s impossible to turn to a blind eye.”
The expression of melancholy.
That indescribably ephemeral atmosphere drove me crazy.
The profile, the shiny hair that flutters with the train’s swaying, the thin neck.
Everything was as beautiful as if it were fake.
That’s probably why my ulterior motive peeked out.
If by some chance such a beautiful woman were to thank me…
No, no.
I was probably thinking that I wanted to see her happy face.
How wonderful her smile would be when she smiled.
I thought about how happy it would fill my heart if she laughed.
I wonder if I’m attracted to her……
It’s strange to fall in love with someone you’ve never really talked to.
She has a mysterious charm.
She is not only beautiful, but there is something about her that makes me curious.
I feel as if she is someone close to me, even though we have almost no contact.
Her sweet scent also somehow makes me feel nostalgic and at home.
I wonder if it’s something called wavelength.
……..Just kidding. I’m thinking too much.
Ding dong.
While I was lost in thought, the doorbell rang.
Is it a delivery service?
My mother’s always buying stupid stuff on the Internet.
“Yes.”
I immediately went to the front door and opened it.
But no one was there.
“What is this, a prank?”
I guess there are still some people who do unfashionable things like bell dash nowadays.
But there are a lot of suspicious people around these days, so it’s better to lock the door.
“Sigh…….”
I close the front door, fed up with someone’s pranks.
And again when I’m back in the kitchen.
Ding dong.
The doorbell rang.
It was too nasty for a prank.
Feeling annoyed, I opened the front door again, this time with more force.
“Hey, who the hell is…..eh?”
“Oh, I knew I was in the right place.”
“Kaneko……and Takaya san, why are you here too?”
“Well, the two of you came here to play today as well.”
“No, I mean, how do you know where I live?”
“I asked the neighbors if there was a house of someone named Tokiwa san around here. Don’t be so cautious. Right, Takaya san?”
“Yes, Tokiwa is a very rare surname.”
The two, who said they had another date today, still looked awkward, but still looked at each other happily and laughed.
“I see. So, what is it that you came all the way out here for?”
“Well, Takaya san has something she wants to talk to you about. Do you have a minute?”
“Takaya san? Well, okay.”
Takaya san, who I had never talked to before, tilted her head and I wondered what in the world she wanted to talk to me about.
Takaya san bowed her head, looking a little awkward, and Kaneko said, [It’s a big house] while getting excited about entering my house for the first time.
After showing them to the guest room at the front of the house, I went to get a drink and thought about what the conversation was about.
“…..I see, it must be about Miyama san.”
That has to be it.
Of course, I have no idea what it was about, but it probably had something to do with the fact that Miyama san was acting strangely the day after I hung out with her.
Could it be that I said something strange and got mad at me without me noticing?
No, but she went to the trouble of calling me at night…….
Anyway, I’ll have to wait and see.
“Sorry to keep you waiting.”
When I returned to the guest room with a cup of tea, they were sitting side by side on the sofa.
I want to say that I’m jealous.
I’m sure they’re going to get together, and I envy them.
“So, what did you want to talk about?”
“Oh, that’s right. Takaya san, tell him.”
“Yeah,……um, it’s about Chika.”
“What’s going on with Miyama san?”
“…….”
When I saw Takaya san look away, as if she was a little reluctant to talk, I could tell that it wasn’t a good idea after all.
That’s why I was afraid to ask, so I drank the tea before the guests did.
After a short silence, Takaya san looked up and asked.
“Why did you lie to Chika?”
