Chapter 19: 18

Well, since it’s in front of the gateway, I’m getting a tremendous amount of attention.

 

Even though I’m blown away, I’m not comfortable.

 

Let’s get going quickly.

 

I left the school building, opened my umbrella, and called out to Shimizu.

 

「Hey, let’s go.」

 

No good…I can’t help but be embarrassed and blunt.

 

「Y-Yes…」

 

Shimizu comes closer to my side with her cheeks stained.

 

As it is, we both walk…

 

I’m glad I had a bigger umbrella today. If it had been a folding one or something, I wouldn’t have been able to manage…

 

Of course, the umbrella is pulled over to Shimizu.

 

…But even so, they’re looking at me like crazy.

 

It’s not surprising…since it’s a combination of a madonna and a loner.

 

No one is talking to me, as if they can’t believe it.

 

Everyone seemed to be watching in a daze.

 

We left the school and headed for the station.

 

Shimizu looked down and remained facedown.

 

「Hey, you’re getting wet, okay? Come closer.」

 

I carefully pull Shimizu closer to me.

 

「Hiya! …auuu……」

 

…It seems I was too abrupt.

Maybe I don’t understand the situation well enough.

…Or rather, it’s my fault.

 

「…Sorry, didn’t like that?」

 

「Huh? ……I’m fine! I-I’m glad…」

 

She looked up once but then turned her head down again.

However, even her ears are bright red…

……At any rate, I’m relieved that he doesn’t seem to dislike it.

 

The silence continues, but it’s strangely not awkward.

Rather, I am surprised at how calm I am……

 

In the end, the two of us remain silent and arrive at the station.

I drain the water from my umbrella and fold it once.

 

「Are you all right? Did you get wet?」

 

「Uh, yeah. But Yoshino-kun shoulder is…」

 

「Well, don’t worry about it. The school uniform will dry while I’m working. Let’s go.」

 

「Y-Yes…」

 

I and Shimizu took the escalator and went through the ticket gate.

…There are five minutes until the train comes.

 

「Uh, um….Yoshino-kun, why…?」

 

「I’m not sure……but I guess it’s called a change of heart.」

 

「I-I see…」

 

「Well, don’t worry about it too much, because I don’t really know either.」

 

「Uh, yeah, okay.」

 

Well, that’s a stretch.

 

「Well, I think I’ve had enough of it. The seat next to me is Shimizu, and the seat in front of me is Tanaka-kun, who knows.」

 

「Ah, that’s right. That’s what you meant.」

 

「I don’t know if I’ll change much, though. I’m going to keep going with this style. Just…」

 

「Just…?」

 

「Ah―…Shimizu is fine as it is. Don’t worry about me, you’re free to do whatever you want.」

 

「Um…you mean…」

 

「……That means that you can talk to me at school whenever you want.」

 

I can’t say how great I sound……

But I can’t say it well…!

 

「Eh!? Really!? …Ehehe, I see, is that so…」

 

Shimizu looks really happy.

I guess she’s been holding out for the past month for me.

 

Then I get on the train…but it’s crowded today.

 

I naturally lead Shimizu to the side of the entrance and stand in front of it.

They say there are a lot of molesters and voyeurs these days……

 

「T-Thank you……」

 

Shimizu hugs her bag in her arms and looks embarrassed.

…I can tell you without a doubt that she’s cute.

And it makes me want to hug you…

Is that the case?

Or is it just a desire as a man?

…I don’t quite understand…

 

「W-What are we going to do tomorrow?」

 

「Hmm? …Ah, they’ll say something……」

 

「Maybe…my friends will ask me when I get home.」

 

「In that case, it is better not to fool around. Just be normal, I guess. You were in trouble because you don’t have an umbrella, and I came to you. That’s all.」

 

「I see…You’re probably right.」

 

「By the way, why were you in such a hurry?」

 

「Actually, Seiya caught a cold…and mother took a half day off…」

 

「I see, that’s worrisome. I know that feeling……」

「Fufufu…」

 

「Hmm? What’s wrong?」

 

「Seiya said, Touma-san is coming this week, I have to get better!」

 

「Well, don’t take it too hard. I’m always here.」

 

「Fufu, that’s so sweet.」

 

Then we arrive at the station where we get off.

 

Upon exiting the station, I offered Shimizu my umbrella.

 

「Here, you can use this. I’ll be there.」

 

「Eh? T-Thank you. But, Yoshino-kun going back…?」

 

「I’ll be fine. I’m going to school on a bicycle, so I have a kappa. Besides, if Shimizu catches a cold, it would be a disaster, wouldn’t it?」

 

There is no such thing, though…

 

「I see. Then, I’ll borrow it.」

 

「Kukuku…lawful man. You don’t have to bow down to anything…」

 

「Really? Well, it’s normal for me.」

 

「That’s a good thing. I like that part about you.」

 

「Eh? …Really? Is that so…」

 

「Well, I’m going to go to my part-time job. Be careful on your way home, okay?」

 

「Uh-huh! Thanks! Yoshino-kun, good luck with your part-time job!」

 

I think as I head to my part-time job.

 

Don’t think, just feel……

 

I don’t know if I can say I like this, but I’m sure I can say… 

 

I seem to enjoy and feel at home with Shimizu.

My mind was in a state of panic.

 

…I have to sort it out once.

 

Seiya has a cold today, so I turned down an invitation from a friend to go home.

 

Then I found that my umbrella was gone.

 

I wondered if I had made a mistake…

 

I was troubled by this thought…and it was when he called out to me…

 

As soon as I heard the voice, I thought it sounded like Yoshino-kun.

 

But when I turned around…I saw Yoshino-kun there…

 

And to my surprise, he asked me if I wanted to join him under his umbrella!

 

…I’ve sorted it out, but I don’t understand it at all!

 

My body is hot from a while ago…

 

I can’t look at Yoshino-kun at all…

 

Even if I did, I’d be so embarrassed that I’d immediately look away…

 

I feel strangely at ease…even though I can’t see him.

 

Of course, I feel nervous and embarrassed……

 

What should I say?

 

Umm…I feel like silence doesn’t bother me?

 

Like I’m happy if you’re by my side or……

 

Kyaa!! What are you talking about!? Me!?

 

……Calm down, me.

 

But I can’t calm down……Because, Yoshino-kun, he’s a gentleman.

 

Always walk on the side of the road, and the umbrella is always close to me…

 

More than anything else…he told me to come over more…hauu.

 

Even after we reached the station, I was still very nervous.

 

He talks to me normally, he smiles at me, he laughs at me……

 

On the train, he protects me so I don’t get smushed…

 

After that, Yoshino-kun went to his part-time job.

 

I walk with Yoshino-kun umbrella.

 

…What in the world is just happen?

 

He said it was a change of heart…

 

But it doesn’t matter now.

 

Because I’m very happy about what happened…

 

He said I could talk to him at school!

 

I’m so happy because I’ve been holding back for so long!

 

We’ll be sitting next to each other from now on, and I’m looking forward to tomorrow!

 

I wonder if we can get to know each other better?

 

…When I arrived home, Seiya was fine.

 

I was glad to hear that, but then he told me.

 

Sister, what’s with your face? You’re grinning.

 

Apparently, I look quite happy.
