“Good morning, Sara-senpai.”

 

“Good morning, Takanashi-san.”

 

Today, it’s just the two of us going to school.

 

Natsumi-senpai sometimes can’t join us in the morning because of her club activities.

 

And I recently found out that Natsumi-senpai was a member of the tennis club… I didn’t know that because club activities are not compulsory at our school… And she never talked about it until now.

 

“I hope the weather holds out until we get back home…”

 

“Eh?”

 

Come to think of it, Senpai has an umbrella.

 

Even though it’s so sunny…

 

“According to the weather forecast, there will be rain before evening… Speaking of which, don’t you have an umbrella, Takanashi-san?”

 

“I didn’t bring one… but I’m sure I can make it home before it starts raining, so I’ll probably be fine.”

 

“That’s right, as long as we can get home early, we should be fine.”

 

It was during my last sixth period class that I regretted having flagged it…

 

Even when I was eating my lunch, it was still sunny enough…

 

——————————————

 

*Rain Pouring…*

 

It’s raining pretty hard…

 

However, strong rain often weakens if you wait a bit, so I’ll just wait for now.

 

………

 

………

 

I don’t think it’s going to stop… I guess I’ll just have to run.

 

“Oh, hey there Takanashi-kun? What’s wrong? Why are you in a place like this…?”

 

The one who showed up was the student council president.

 

“President. Umm, thank you for the help last time.”

 

We’re not acquainted with each other, so I wondered, how should I talk to him…?

 

“It’s no problem. It was a student council work, so don’t worry about it. More importantly, since you’re here, did you forget your umbrella?”

 

“Yes, it was fine this morning, so I got caught off guard…”

 

“You surely wouldn’t think it would rain if you only saw the weather this morning. So what is your plan? You could run home, but if you want, I can share my umbrella with you.”

 

“President… is there something going on with Takanashi-san? Maybe I can also hear about it too?”

 

Since the student council president is here, it’s no surprise that Sara-senpai is also on her way home.

 

What a shameful place to meet her.

 

“No, it’s nothing like that. I’m not trying to make things difficult for him, so no need to intervene…”

 

“I’m sorry for that. Let’s go, Takanashi-san… Ah, right, you don’t have an umbrella today, do you?”

 

Ugh, that’s right…

 

“I was just talking about it too. But you knew about it, Satsukawa-san?

 

“Yes, he mentioned it this morning.”

 

Then Sara-senpai lifted the umbrella in her hand and looked at me with a smile.

 

“Now, Takanashi-san, I apologize for the small umbrella, but let’s go home.”　

 

“!?”

 

The student council president looked like a pigeon that had been hit by a peashooter.

“I-It’s okay, I’ll just run home.”

 

“I won’t allow it. I won’t be able to forgive myself if I let Takanashi-san go home alone like this.”

 

Ah, in this mode, I can’t go against her…

 

In this case, I have no choice but to do as Senpai says.

 

Because if I disobey…

 

“But if we use the umbrella together, Sara-senpai will get wet, so even if I get wet…”

 

“Takanashi-san, it’s not a big deal for me to get myself wet in the rain. Maybe I should imitate Takanashi-san and get wet in the rain?…  Since Takanashi-san doesn’t like to be under my umbrella…”

 

“I understand! I’m sorry for the inconvenience but please let me share your umbrella with me! I’m happy to go home with Sara-senpai!”

 

I knew this would happen…

 

Senpai, that sad look is unfair…

 

“Fufu, then let’s go home quickly. The later we go, the harder the rain will fall.”

 

——————————————

 

… You know, I’m still here, but…

 

It seems I’ve been completely forgotten.

 

But this is more shocking than what Natsumi had told me, and I thought it would be…

 

Is this really Satsukawa-san?

 

If someone told me it was a different person who looks like her, I’d be convinced.

 

I’m really surprised to see that Satsukawa-san is smiling at a boy, and she changes like this only when it comes to Takanashi-kun…

 

…This is… Maybe I should talk to Natsumi about it…

 

——————————————

 

“Ehem… Then I’ll leave you two to it.”

 

Ah, I completely forgot that President was here…

 

“Yes… Then President, thank you for your hard work.”

 

It’s a very cumbersome greeting… The same as always…

 

“Thank you for your hard work, President.”

 

Then the President left with his umbrella.

 

“So, Takanashi-san, shall we head home too?”

 

Senpai looks at me happily and calls out.

 

She opened her umbrella and I stood beside her…

 

Yeah, as expected, there’s a height difference, so it’s hard for Senpai to hold the umbrella.

 

“Sara-senpai, let me hold the umbrella for you…”

 

I took the umbrella from Senpai and held it between the two of us.

 

Then we walked out into the rain.

 

“Takanashi-san, please move closer to me so you don’t get wet, okay?”

 

“Yes, I’m all right.”

 

There’s another reason why I took the umbrella.

 

It was to tilt it toward Senpai.

 

Of course, my shoulder would get wet, but I didn’t care about that in the slightest.

 

I walked slowly, matching Senpai’s pace.

 

“… This is the first time we’ve been together, just the two of us, on the way home, isn’t it?”

 

“That’s true. I don’t have any club activities, and Sara-senpai has student council activities so…”

 

For some reason… Even though it’s not unusual for me to be alone with Senpai, I felt somewhat strange…
