Chapter 51 – Sympathy

*Ping-pong*

“Coming…”

Frankly, I don’t want to answer the door. But since I’m home, it would be rude not to…

*Open*

When I opened the door, I saw Sara-senpai with a weird smile and had a strange aura…

‘Huh? Why is she here?’

“Takanashi-san, how are you feeling? I’m sorry, but before we talk more in detail, can I be excused to enter your room first?”

“Ha? It’s fine, but…”

“Please excuse me.”

As soon as Senpai entered the room, she forcefully dragged me to the bed located on the far side of the room.

I was moved and laid on the futon disregarding any questions, while Natsumi-senpai, who came in after her, opened the windows to let fresh air inside the room…

It was hot because of my sickness, so it was nice to have a breeze coming in.

Sara-senpai put her hand on my forehead and measured my fever.

While her other hand is stroking my head, making me relaxed…

“Your fever is a little high… Do you experience a lot of discomforts?”

“Just a bit of a runny nose.”

“Before it gets any worse, maybe you should take some medicine? You’ll recover faster that way…”

I feel like I don’t need to take any medicine at the moment.

Sigh… To think such an impossible thing would happen.

“Once again, Takanashi-san, I apologize for visiting your house suddenly. I just found out that Takanashi-san is off with a cold, and I can’t overlook it.”

“I know that Takanashi-kun lied because you were worried about Sara, but now that it’s come to this, won’t you let Sara take care of you? Otherwise, she’ll be more worried.”

I feel bad now that she mentioned it.

“Sorry, Sara-senpai…”

“Natsumi, please don’t say more than necessary. Right now, Takanashi-san should only be focusing on getting over his cold. Please don’t give him any unnecessary trouble.”

“Y-Yes, I’m sorry.”

Having told that, Natsumi-senpai went to the kitchen and started preparing something.

The senpais are in a pretty earnest mode today.

All because of me…

“Takanashi-san… please don’t worry yourself and focus on getting better.”

Saying so, she caressed my head while holding my hand in hers.

——————————————

It looks like Sara is trying to make Takanashi-kun fall asleep… or at least that was her intention.

But for Sara to be mad at me…

This time around, she has a lot of things on her plate and feels sorry for Takanashi-kun, so Sara must be feeling a bit overwhelmed.

It’s best not to say anything rash.

But… well…

Looking at her patting Takanashi’s head so happily… she must have been so worried.

This… lap pillow might rouse up a lot of things.

Maybe I’m just in their way…

Ettu, I have to prepare porridge.

If I cook it, Sara will definitely get angry, so I’ll only prepare it in advance…

Uwaah, a lonely boy living alone… All he has is instant food. Ah, there’s rice.

Pardon the intrusion (*Opens the fridge*). Fortunately, there are eggs, so making porridge is possible.

“Sara, I’ll just prepare the rice for porridge, alright?”

“Thank you. I’ll do the cooking.”

She replied in a whisper, probably because she doesn’t want to wake Takanashi-kun up.

“It’s up to you, Sara. After preparing this, I’ll go back to school and show up for club activities.”

“I’m so sorry for all the trouble you’ve gone through.”

“No, no, I was worried too.”

Now, I guess I’ll leave the rest to Sara and head back.

——————————————

Uwaah, this cold feeling on my cheeks feels good. Eh, what’s this…? She is leaning closer and closer.

“Fufu… so adorable… Takanashi-san, do you want to get up?”

Senpai’s voice… Wh-why am I like this…?

“Sara-senpai…?”

“How are you feeling?”

When I opened my eyes, I saw Senpai with a worried look.

“… I feel a little better now.”

“That’s good. I’ve prepared some porridge. Do you think you can eat it?”

“Yes, I think I can manage somehow.”

“Don’t strain yourself if you can’t eat it. There is some yogurt and fruit in the refrigerator, so eat it for breakfast tomorrow morning.”

It looks like they’ve been doing a lot of stuff while I’ve been sleeping…

“Thank you very much. And I’m sorry for the trouble…”

“No worries. I really wanted to stay and watch you for a while longer, but I have to go home soon.”

The time right now… It’s already around 7 pm. Giving Senpai a hard time, I’m genuinely sorry.

“Senpai, thank you very much. You’ve been a great help. But I’ll be fine now.”

I really want to escort her home, but…

She’ll get angry if I say that since I’m not in good shape.

“Fortunately, tomorrow is Saturday. If I finish my student council duties by tomorrow morning, I’ll have some free time in the afternoon, so I’ll be able to take care of you all day until Sunday. If you need anything, you can call me on LINE.”

“For you to take care of me again, th-that’s too much…”

“That won’t do. The reason you ended up like this was that you were protecting me that day from the rain, which means I have every reason to take care of you. Also, even if there is no such reason, as long as you got sick, I will nurse you back to health.”

That’s…

Ugh, I was warned about it the other day, so I guess I’ll have no choice but to accept.

If I were in the opposite position, I would probably think the same thing about what I could do for my Senpai and force her to accept.

Besides, if I tried to refuse, she would probably give me that look again.

“Thank you very much. That would be very helpful…”

“Okay! I’ll see you tomorrow… Ah, before I forget. The matter of lying to me yesterday, I’ll give an earful, so you better get ready after getting better. Then, have a good rest, Takanashi-san.”

“……. Yes.”

By the way, Senpai’s porridge was very delicious…
