Chapter 24

Amusement Park Date of The Two

 

AN: Title, 『So I “invited” her (who’s super cute) out on a date today.』

 

→The one who invited him to the amusement park was Aikawa-san. That means, Kurose is just a slacker. [TLN: thanks flamer for helping me out on this one]

 

Eehh?????????

 

TLN: Enjoy the chapter~

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Today was the day of our meet-up, and the day of my date with Aikawa-san.

 

I was wearing a white polo shirt and short jeans. My shaggy hair made me look a bit like a hobo, but I’ve done my best to keep my hair in order.

 

I don’t know anything about fashion, and I’ve never cared about my appearance before.

 

It’s hard to even get my hair done, and I have no idea what to wear for summer.

 

So I just simply decided that since it was the hottest day of the summer, I might as well dress a little cooler.

 

“Maybe I came a little bit too early…”

 

I still have thirty minutes before the meeting time, so why don’t I just relax and read a book in the shade?

 

As I was thinking this, I saw someone quietly sitting on a blue bench.

 

She was wearing a straw hat and a white one-piece dress with a small top and a wide hem. Her arms were boldly exposed, giving her an innocent look.

 

With her beautiful appearance and long, silky peach hair, I knew at a glance that she was Aikawa-san. 

 

The only overwhelming difference was that she had a small white ribbon attached to her bangs. The ribbon and Aikawa-san’s peach colored hair match so well that I don’t feel anything out of place when I look at her.

 

(…She just put a ribbon in it, but she’s so cute…!)

 

Then with my heart that started thumping, I reaffirmed it out loud.

 

 

 

“I’m really going to the amusement park with Aikawa-san now, huh…”

 

 

I’m sure I’ve done my best to keep up appearances so as not to disgrace Aikawa-san, but even so, it’s obvious that I’m too different from her.

 

The way she was looking up at the sky, holding her bag in both hands, was also very picturesque. Strangely, there was no one who wanted to cross in front of her.

 

“Aikawa-san, good morning.”

 

After taking a breath, I walked over to the bench and spoke to Aikawa-san.

 

“Mhn.”

 

Aikawa-san nodded her head and returned my greeting. Then the moment she turned her head towards me, her eyes widened a bit.

 

“…!”

 

Aikawa-san stiffened.

 

The area fell silent, and I continued to stare at Aikawa-san’s face for a while, unable to say a word.

 

But then a whirlwind blew and Aikawa’s peach hair swayed, and time, which had almost stopped, began to move again.

 

“Um…”

 

Our conversation had died down a bit, so I turned my head to try and find a topic to talk about.

 

『It’s natural for a guy to compliment a girl’s appearance when they’re on a date.』

 

That’s what Mina had told me, so I decided to go along with it. The information about today’s date was already out in the open, and Mina had given me a lot of advice.

 

I didn’t want to say it, but I didn’t have a choice if my phone was taken hostage. Once that treasure folder was opened, my life would be over for sure.

 

“That dress looks really great on you. You look like an innocent young lady in it.”

 

I told her honestly what I was thinking.

 

There was no need to lie here, because I felt that Aikawa-san’s charm would fit perfectly with any compliments I could say.

 

“….”

 

There was no response from Aikawa-san, but I didn’t care and decided to continue to compliment her.

 

“I like the straw hat too, cause it makes you look more tomboyish than the usual cool Aikawa-san.”

“….”

“The ribbon too! It’s so cute and it makes your ladylike appearance stand out.”

“….”

“And the dress that shows off your arm! It made me feel refreshed just by looking at it…!”

“….Nuu…”

 

By the time I noticed, her face was bright red and her shoulders were shaking. She was wearing a dress so her blushed face, that was writhing in shame, stood out more.

 

“S-Sorry… I got a little enthusiastic…”

“…Un.”

Now that I think about it, I shouldn’t have casually said something like “cute” to someone of the opposite sex…. Aikawa-san then hid her face with her straw hat and looked at me with only her eyes.

 

(Oh man, why is she so cute?)

 

After all this time, I felt like I had said some pretty embarrassing things.

 

I’ve never complimented a girl on her looks before, except for Mina, so Aikawa-san’s reaction made me feel embarrassed too..

 

(This is bad… my face is getting hot.)

 

I could feel the blood rushing in my head. But blushing would put us back in an awkward situation, so I pinched my arm hard to take my mind off her.

 

“Well, the park’s gonna open in a few minutes, so why don’t we get in line?”

“…Mhn.”

 

After a little while, Aikawa-san seemed to have fully recovered and immediately returned to her original expressionless face. thinking that it was just like her after all, I turned on my heel and headed towards the queue that led to the entrance.

 

The amusement park seemed to be one of the most popular spots, because I saw many parents and children, couples, and students. As I have few friends and no girlfriend, I was envious of them.

 

(But… if seen from someone else’s perspective, I guess we look like a couple….)

 

Normally, if a man and a woman were walking together in an amusement park, it would be natural to think that. I felt a little embarrassed, but I didn’t feel bad about being thought that way.

 

(Well, We’re not even close to being a mismatched couple, though.)

 

The road to the queue was a bit crowded, and waves of people kept pouring in from the front and the back. I couldn’t help but cover my ears as I heard the murmur of people up close.

 

“Aikawa-san, are you all right?”

 

Just as I was about to turn around to check on her safety. I felt a soft touch on my hand that seemed familiar to me, because of that I felt like my heart jumped out of my chest.

 

“…♪”

“W-Wait, it’s embarrassing to hold hands… so hold my sleeves, please.”

 

Aikawa-san, who seemed to be in a good mood, smiled at me. She had the courage to hold my hand and intertwine our fingers, which was commonly known as a koibitotsunagi.

 

I let out a sigh of mixed feeling at the skinship as usual. I’d like to spend an hour lecturing her on how men misunderstand things if she does this kind of thing. [TLN: ah yes a dense MC.]

 

“Mhn.”

 

Then Aikawa-san, who had been warned, apologetically plucked my sleeve a bit.

 

I knew that it’s for us to avoid getting separated, but I couldn’t help misunderstood that she likes me or something… I just hope she would forgive me for thinking that.

 

Maybe because I’ve been brainwashed by Mina’s words that she’s totally into me, but when she said that with a look of conviction on her face, I almost took her seriously for a moment.

 

However, my suspicions were quickly cleared up when I saw my appearance.

 

There’s probably only one person in the world who would like my appearance, which was the epitome of an ordinary person.

 

“Oh, I guess we’ll have to wait for 30 minutes.”

“Mhn.”

 

We got in line a little late, and It looked like a long wait, so I opened the app on my phone that I had prepared beforehand.

 

It’s an app that allowed me to play othello. Mina advised me to prepare something to pass the time, and it seems to be useful this time.

 

“Well, it’s a little boring, so want to play Othello–”

 

As I was about to invite her to play, my phone shuddered with a vibrating sound. I said it’s nothing to Aikawa-san and checked my email on the spot.

 

Apparently, she had sent me an email. I wondered if it was something complicated that she couldn’t convey with her facial expression.

 

I thought so, but what I received was a short sentence. But the problem was not the length of the email, but the content.

 

『You look cool, Ryu.』

 

I couldn’t help but look at Aikawa-san’s face, then she nodded her head once with a calm look in her eyes.

 

(Ryu, huh, she’s talking about me… right?)

 

After that I felt my face was getting redder and redder. I couldn’t help but turn my head away from her at once, since I didn’t have a hat or any things to hide my face.

 

After a moment to catch my breath, I secretly made a fist and bit back my joy. I was flattered that she thought I was so cool.

 

“…?”

 

Aikawa-san seemed to be wondering, “What about Othello?” tilting her head and staring at me with a blank expression on her face.

 

Ugh, this was a bad habit of mine… once I’m conscious of Aikawa-san, I couldn’t take my eyes off her!

 

“No, let’s play Othello another time…”

 

I told her as I squeezed my voice out of my throat and turned away again.

 

(So… this is how Aikawa-san felt when she was being praised by me…)

 

Then I spent what felt like a strangely long time before entering the amusement park, almost fainting in shame.

 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

AN: …Well, I think the amusement park date will change the distance between the two of them by a lot!

 

Also the title is not a scam, so please believe in Kurose-kun!

 

TLN: yeah I feel like it’s a scam…
