After saying that, Arisa turned red and turned her cheek away.
Then she spoke a little too quickly.
“Come on, let’s eat our lunch quickly. We haven’t been to all the exhibits in the museum yet.”
“That’s right.”
Then the two of them tucked into the homemade bento that Arisa had made.
Then, that night.
“Hey, Arisa.”
“Yes… what is it?”
Before bedtime.
Yuzuru spoke to Arisa again
“Actually, I need a favor, or rather have a proposal.”
“…yes. What is it?”
“…Can’t we turn off the nightlight?”
Yuzuru and Arisa were sleeping in the same room.
And for the sake of Arisa, who can’t sleep without the nightlight, Yuzuru leaves the nightlight on.
However, he doesn’t usually turn on the night light.
Therefore… he was a bit bothered.
In short, it was difficult to sleep when there was a nightlight on.
“Eh…?”
Arisa’s expression twitched at Yuzuru’s suggestion.
Looked like she hadn’t expected that.
“Y-yeah…”
“No, no. I’m not saying you have to.”
It’s not that he can’t sleep with the nightlight on.
If Arisa is afraid to sleep without a light, he was willing to go along with it.
“No, if the lights are too much for you, Yuzuru-san, it’s fine. That’s right. Originally, we were supposed to sleep separately, but because of my selfishness, we are sleeping in the same room….”
But she didn’t seem too keen on the idea.
“Sorry. You can forget it… I’m fine with a little lighting.”
“…But I can’t just force Yuzuru-san to put up with this all the time.”
“It’s fine for the duration of the holidays…”
“We’re going to be husband and wife, you know?”
Yuzuru was surprised by Arisa’s words.
Yes, the two of them were engaged to be married.
If they don’t change this, they’ll be sleeping with a nightlight on for the rest of their married life.
“…I think I should overcome it.”
“Yeah… I’d be happy if you did. No, but it doesn’t mean I have to do it right now.”
Right now, though, they are staying together.
The two of them won’t start living together in earnest until after high school graduation at the earliest.
Depending on where they go to university, it may be after they graduate from college.
They still had a long way to go.
“No, they say good things come in haste… And I’ve got a good idea.”
Arisa’s face was a little flushed as she said this.
There was a hint of nervousness in her expression, but no fear.
