Chapter 33: 32

“Ossu~. Good morning, Hiro. Doing well? 

(T/N: Ossu is just a greeting used between close friends )

“Good morning. Well, I’m fine I guess. How’s Ryoko?”

“She’s fine. She was worried, saying “I wonder if Hiroyuki-chan is alright?””

It has become a regular occurrence during the past week that Tomomi calls out to me as soon as I arrive at school. 

Since we went to elementary and junior high school together and have been walking to school together, it feels strange “Being greeted at school as the first thing in the morning”.

“It’s kind of weird, huh?”

“What is?”

“The greeting Hiro in the morning “at school” part?”

“…”

Her, too? Well, we’ve known each other since we were small kids.After all, it feels kinda strange..

“You’ll get used to it, won’t you?”

“You think so? I think I’ll never get used to it. I feel like the days without Hiro will go on and on.”

“But, you know, we won’t be together all the time either way. When it comes to college, that’s the whole country of Japan… Regardless of whether we go college or not, we’re going to be seperated.”

“That… may be true, though.”

Saying that, Tomomi lays down on my desk. Tomomi peeks at me from below, and her cheeks are puffed up, which I think shows her dissatisfaction.

“Don’t give me that look…”

“Okay… Ah! That’s right!  I forgot!  What about lunch today, Hiro? Did you prepare it? Maybe a lunch made with love?”

“You’re too loud! Ahh… I was thinking of buying bread from the school canteen.”

“I see. Then, what do you say? Let’s have lunch together. It’s been a while since we’ve had lunch together, the three of us! Today is Ryoko’s lunch day!”

“Really? Then shall I buy something in the canteen… and join you on the rooftop?”

“No need for that! Ryoko, out of habit, made too much. Which is why Hiro is given the responsibility as the lunch processor.”

“If I am lucky enough to be Ryoko’s lunchbox processor, I will gladly accept the position.”

After all, her food is delicious.

“Hmm, she seems to be out of it too. I mean, making too much food…”

“Well, Ryoko isn’t used to it either. An everyday life without Hiro.”

“Really?”

“Ryoko’s been with you longer than I have.”

“Well, she lives next door, I’ve basically known her since she was born.”

“Doesn’t that make it all the more important?”

“…I guess she’ll have to get used to it too.”

“I suppose. Well then, Hiro! Let’s meet on the rooftop for lunch!”

◆◇◆

“Here you go, Hiroyuki-chan. Karaage.”

“Thank you… Mmm, delicious as expected. Can I have an onigiri?”

“Here you go. Do you want bonito flakes or kelp?”

(T/N: Karaage is fried chicken. Onigiri is a triangular rice ball. You have probably seen it before. Bonito flakes and kelp are fillings to the onigiri.)

“Hmm, I’ll have the bonito.”

“Okay…”

Lunch break. When I went up to the rooftop, Tomomi and Ryoko were already waiting for me on the leisure sheet. I gave Ryoko and Tomomi a milk tea and a sports drink I bought as a thank-you, and I tucked into Ryoko’s homemade bento. It’s still as delicious as ever.

“So? How’s the taste?”

“It’s as great as always. The salt is just right.”

“I know! Ryoko’s cooking is really delicious. But I don’t mean to complain, but I think these rice balls would taste even better if they were a little saltier.”

“Why the honorifics? If you have a problem with it, don’t eat it. I’ll eat it all.”

“Mo~. I’m not complaining! Uh… It’s just that, I remember them being saltier in the past.”

Really?　I never thought that Ryoko’s food was salty… but as I looked at Ryoko with that thought, I saw her smiling instead.

“Tomomi-chan, you are correct. You know, both Hiroyuki-chan and Tomomi-chan used to play basketball, right? That’s why I used to make your lunches after games with more salt. It’s a sport that involves a lot of running afterall.”

“You’re serious?”

You were that considerate?

“I mean, it’s just a little bit, you know? Rather Tomomi-chan, you noticed it quite well, didn’t you? The amount was so small that even if you had told me, I would have thought, ‘Is that so?’.”

“Fufufufu~. Call me the girl with the tongue of God. I am not like Hiro!”(E/N: God’s Tongue? Erinacchi!)

“So noisy…”

Well, I can’t say I’m proud of myself for not realizing it, but… Wow. I didn’t realize that.

“I feel bad for not noticing…”

Ryoko smiles softly at my apology and shakes her head from side to side. She’s a nice girl.

“Come on, don’t worry about it, Hiroyuki-chan and Tomomi-chan,eat more! At any—”

“Hiroyuki-senpai!”

Suddenly, the rooftop door opens with a bang. This little noisy voice, it’s Mizuho, isn’t it?

“What?”

“Ah! You’re eating Ryoko-senpai’s lunch again! Not fair!”

“It’s not really unfair…”

“It is! Ryoko-senpai!”

“….Do you want to sit down and eat too, Mizuho-chan?”

“Yes! I shall gladly join… Wait no! I had business with Hiroyuki-senpai!”

“What is it? Are you asking me to play basketball against you again by any chance? That’s just a pain to deal with.”

“It’s not tha-. Well, that too but I’m not talking about that! Senpai, you are good friends with Kiryu-senpai, right?”

“…”

That’s a difficult question to answer.

“I told you before. We’re friends who eat lunch together”

“You’re close friends then.”

“Wait. How did you come to that conclusion?”

“I mean, I’ve never seen Kiryu-senpai with anyone else. Moreover, you even eat lunch together, so you must be close friends.

“Uh, I don’t think we’re on bad terms. Best friends or not, so? What’s wrong?”

“Oh, you know what? I was eating bread in the back of the school building before I came here.”

“Why back of the school building? In such a deserted place?”

Huh? Does she not have any friends in her class too?

“You see, that’s the spot for confessions, right? So, when you want to supply yourself with a little 

“kyun-kyun,” you sneak over there and hide—”

“You’re terrible!”

“Just kidding. Of course if someone came, I would leave. I was a little tired today and wanted some alone time.”

“Something wrong?”

“I’m fine. I’m fine, so don’t look so worried. I was really just a little stressed and frustrated, and I didn’t want to talk to my friends and make them feel bad, so I just wanted to stay alone.”

“I see.”

“Thank you for your concern. But! That’s not what I want to say! As I was in the back of the school building, Kiryu-senpai came!”

“Kiryu?”

“That’s right!　See, that place is a confession spot, and Kiryu-senpai is a super beautiful girl!　So, I thought for sure this was a confession…”

Kiryu confessing, huh? How do I say this? I wouldn’t complain if Kiryu confessed to anyone, but it’s not really fun to think about—

“But, you know? There were female senpais who came after Kiryu-senpai instead. And the three of them, they seem to be a bit angry… I’m not sure if it’s a fight or not, but I thought I’d put it in Hiroyuki-senpai’s ear just in case. Having a fight with “that”  Kiryu-senpai is too scary and impossible to do half-heartedly, and when you think about it…  Doesn’t this look pretty bad?”

— Hey, This really is sounding pretty fishy
