Strictly speaking, there was a slight discrepancy in the number of days from her birthday… but they decided to celebrate it on Sunday, the day when Arisa visited Yuzuru’s apartment.
A few days’ difference was within the margin of error.
“Here’s a present… that is identical to the one before though.”
Yuzuru said and handed the present to Arisa.
The contents were the same as the previous year, a towel and a set of soap.
Although he had chosen a different type of soap (scent), there was not much difference …so Yuzuru was a little hesitant.
“Thank you very much. I’m delighted.”
Arisa smiled as she said this.
The one she had gotten before had been a very good one, matching her taste, so she was not dissatisfied, even if it was the same one.
In fact, since it was a gift from Yuzuru, there was no reason to be dissatisfied.
…If it was something really weird, that might be a different story though.
“But um…”
“Yeah?”
“I wanted to get… something else as well…”
Arisa looked up at Yuzuru with an amorous gaze.
Yuzuru, on the other hand, tilted his head.
“Something else? …Well, if you want cake, I’ve got it.”
“N-not that…”
Arisa showed a flustered and panicky look.
Yuzuru smiled at her and said…
“Happy birthday, Arisa.”
Gently, he kissed Arisa on the lips.
Arisa’s face turned bright red.
“G-geez… Please don’t make fun of me!”
“No, Arisa is just so cute…”
“Hmph, I don’t care now, Yuzuru-san! I hate you!”
Then Arisa turned away.
Now it was Yuzuru’s turn to be troubled.
“I’m sorry, Arisa. Can you please forgive me…?”
“…Do you really, really want me to forgive you?”
“By all means.”
“….Will you do anything?”
“I’ll do anything.”
“Then bring me the dragon’s head bead.”
“No, that’s …a bit tough.”
“Can you get me a jeweled branch of Hōrai ?”
“If it’s a fake, well, I might be able to…”
“It’s got to be real.”
Good grief, geez…
In such a tone, Arisa made a small snorting sound.
“Then give me the best thing… Yuzuru-san can think of.”
“That’s easy.”
Said Yuzuru,
And he kissed Arisa lightly on the lips.
