Chapter 67 – Becoming Aware

TL: Cheetah

ED: Ryuubii

 

 

The contents of the conversation I had with Yuji last night kept playing back through my mind, and somehow, I couldn’t shake this unpleasant feeling from the time I woke up.

“Today’s home economics class is a cooking practice. If it’s making sweets, I could send some to Takanashi-san.”

“I-Is t-that so? Sara-senpai’s cooking is her strong point, so it’ll be great. Are you also good at making sweets, Sara-senpai?”

Come to think of it, I’ve been treated to all kinds of Senpai’s meals, but I’ve never tasted her sweets.

But it’s Senpai we’re talking about here. I am sure she is good at making sweets… I can’t even imagine how well she’ll make them.

“Sara is a natural at making sweets. I don’t think there’s anything she’s bad at in home economics.”

“That’s not true. There are things I am not good at either.”

“Then what are you not good at?”

It’s rare to see Natsumi-senpai throw harsh words. I wonder if something happened?

“Umm…”

I also don’t think there is anything that Sara-senpai is not good at since what she does in school is as homely as it gets.

“Also~, she’s got a lot of girl power, so she’s the ideal wife.”

Uhh… Hearing Natsumi calling Senpai an “ideal wife” made me remember the talk with Yuji from last night.

I’m barely managing to keep my composure, but now that I’ve become conscious, it’ll definitely show on my face…

“Takanashi-kun, your face! Your face is beet red! Are you alright?”

Natsumi-senpai said grinningly.

After she pointed it out, I became even more aware of it.

Control… Restrain it…

“Takanashi-san, you have been holding something back all day today, haven’t you? What are you worrying about?”

“…Sara? Did you notice something wrong with Takanashi-kun?”

No, I’m sure I’ve concealed it perfectly.

In fact, Natsumi-senpai didn’t even notice it directly.

She probably noticed it because I reacted to the “ideal wife” phrase.

“Yes, I noticed it immediately after we met today.”

Ah! Is this Deja Vu? I feel like we’ve had this exchange before.

I guess I’m the type of person who can’t tell a lie without showing it on my face…

“I’m so proud of you, Sara. You’re really paying attention to Takanashi-kun.”

What is this? Natsumi-senpai is teasing me strangely today.

Frankly, I’m not in the mood, so give me a break…

——————————————

Home economics class has started.

Today’s cooking class proceeded as planned.

Cookies and other sweets would have been nice, but…

Come to think of it, though I have made sweets many times, I have never given any to Takanashi-san.

If an opportunity arises, I will try my best to make lovely sweets.

But for now, I guess I should get ready.

——————————————

The cooking class is done in groups, but I don’t like how the boys are grinning at the girls, asking to taste their handmade food.

Particularly Sara’s group. Because even the boys from other groups barge into them…

I hope she doesn’t get pissed off.

Maybe since it’s home economics, her favorite subject, that girl’s expression is softer than usual.

That made the boys get the wrong idea even more.

Though… her apron is adorable.

Is that the apron that Takanashi-kun chose?

She probably liked it so much that she even brought it to the school’s cooking class.

However, yesterday’s report from Tachibana was really unexpected.

Takanashi clearly said he likes her. That’s excellent news.

If that is the case, all I have to do now is to make Sara aware of it no matter what.

The question is, how can I get Sara to realize it herself?

Of course, telling her directly is out of the question.

If there is an excellent opportunity… just one good opportunity… then we can make progress at once.

I guess I’ll just have to wait for the right opportunity.

Now, I’ll cut up some vegetables.

Time to show the results of my regular practice.

“Satsukawa-san, your apron is adorable.”

“I thought so too.”

“It’s different from what you brought before?”

“Yes, this apron is a gift. It’s my favorite.”

Perhaps it’s because they praised Takanashi’s apron, but she seems to be in a better mood than usual.

The other group members noticed this and talked to her actively.

“If it’s a gift, then it’s a present, right? Was it from a boy?”

“Yes, it was.”

“Eh? Really? Satsukawa-san, did you receive it as a present from a boy?”

“Huh? Should I not have accepted it?”

“I-It’s nothing like that! But, Satsukawa-san, you don’t like boys, or at least don’t have interest in them?”

“Ahh, so that’s what you meant. It’s because the person who gave me this apron is very special to me.”

This conversation flow, I feel like this would be the same as before…

Sara’s in a good mood. She’s answering everything and not even going to hide the fact that that particular person is Takanashi-kun…

“Oh! Was it the boy who came with you this morning?”

“It’s good that it’s not just some random accessory or trinket. He bought the apron because he thought about what Satsukawa-san would practically use.”

“Yes, this apron… is my treasure.”

Ahh~, if you show such a blinding smile… Whatever will we do with you?

“Ah! I’ll think of something and get you a present too, Sara-senpai! I want you to have it!”

“Me too. I’ll give it to you next time!”

“Huh? No, thank you. I have no need for it, nor do I wish to accept it.”

「「「…………」」」

Way to draw a clear line there.

Well… It’s Sara we’re talking about. Sara has no eye for other boys, so it’s not surprising.

Judging from Takanashi’s attitude this morning, he must have remembered his conversation with Tachibana about Sara from yesterday.

Is it possible that Takanashi-kun will make a move before Sara realizes it? I really wish it could be like that…
