"Ah...... Sorry, it's just a little hard to call out to you." (Rintaro)

"Well, I guess you have the point." (Yuusuke)

Letting out a dry laugh, he took his shoes out of his shoebox.

His face was slightly pained with a hint of guilt.

"That...... you're as popular as ever, ain't you?" (Rintaro)

"I wonder....... I'm not doing anything unusual, tho." (Yuusuke)

Well, yeah. Kakihara just lived a normal life. This guy was a saint at heart and treated people kindly by default.

And on top of that, he had a good face. If I were a woman, I would have nothing but good impressions of him. Well, I don't think I would fall in love with him because the high competition is too much trouble.

"Hey, Rintaro. Can we talk a little now?" (Yuusuke)

"What?" (Rintaro)

"I have a little something I wanted to consult with you...... It's about Azusa." (Yuusuke)

My shoulders reacted with a jerk.

Now I was sensitive to that name.

"...... Sorry, I have a previous appointment. Can we do this later in the summer break?" (Rintaro)

"I-I see. Then I guess I don't have a choice. Then....... let me just say this. I have made up my mind." (Yuusuke)

At a certain time, there are creatures that walk by two feet. These creatures can be divided into two by gender. These creatures are surprisingly able to pick something using things called hands.

And on a certain day, two of these creatures meet.

"Halloo~ I am Furujakka, ndesu! Nice to meet you!"

"Y, yes. Nice to meet you too, I am Fuurawan."

"Fuurawan-chan ka? Ii no namae."

"S, sangkyu."

The two greet each other due of their faces are facing each other.

They speak, breathe, blink, sweat, and so.

And after a long time passes,

"!?"

"Kyaa~ Furujakka-kyun."

"Daijoubu ka? Fuurawan-chan."

"D, daijoubu... desu."

"Mmm."

"Doushita no?"

"Fuurawan-chan no kaori, suuuuggoku WANGY, hmmmmmppppsshhh ahhhh wangyyyy."

"Mou~ Furujakka-kyun no eeccchi~."

On a certain day, these two meet and have lunch because they are hungry.

The boy orders fried rice while the girl orders a serve of seasoned rice being processed by frying.

For the drinks, the boy orders hot chocolate while the girl orders a cup of chocolate that has not been cold yet.

They eat their food.

They also feed some spoons with each other.

They then having a leisure exchange.

"Ikehh, yaru?"

"Damee~"

"IkehhHH!"

"..."

"Ikeh, tanoshii, kimochii, ore, ganbarimasu!!!"

"Mouu~"

"Dame ka?"

"..."

"Dame nanoka."

"Ee, haayaakuuu~"

The two of them are having exercise, training, and workout, then.

When they finished, then they restarted.

And when they finished, the boy pleaded for the second.

Then when they finished, this time is the girl who asked the third.

And when they finished, the boy once again pleaded for the fourth.

Then when they finished, the girl also once again asked for the fifth.

And so on.

On the other occasion,

On a day that is not a night.

That day the sun is shining brightly because it's a day and 12:00 o'clock.

The day is bright and the sun has not been set yet.

The breeze can be felt due to the air is flowing.

As he is breathing, a certain boy is approaching a girl.

"Yaa, kitten-chan, can I have your namae?"

"S, su, suteki~. Ah, hai. Fuurawan desu."

"Fuurawan-chan, huh. What a kirei no namae. By the way, watashi no namae is Badz Zheengan. Watashi wa Son of a Beach. Watashi came from The Pangea Selatan. Diligent in setsuyaku. Ketsueki type is I, I for Ikkehmen. Watashi no hobby wa breathing. Yoroshiku."

"Yoroshiku, Badz Zheengan-san."

"Fuurawan-chan, watashi no yubi to kimi no chawan, let's have made karera meet and greet."

"Hai."

"Watashi-tachi will have much tanoshi."

They have a wik wok awok koakoawaok akoawoakakwa kawkaowaoaok.

Who can stand to endure this situation

Who doesn't feel the loss

You leave me when I'm so in love

When I'm crazily in love

you choose another guy

Who can stand being dumped

Whose heart not hurt

The memories that have been passed

I keep it deep inside my heart

We are not one anymore

It's alright, I'll get through the days strong-heartedly

My wish is only one, be safe and sound

I can only be able to harbor this, from day to night

Because I know I'm just nobody

It's alright, I'll harbor this feeling inside my heart

I'll keep wish you live well

All I can do is hope you won't regret

Goodbye and thank you

"AWOKWOKAOWKOKAOKWKAOWKOAKOK!!!"

How should I explain this to my parents

We had gone through this long

But ended up breaking up

You are tempted by another guy's love

You yourself had been declared it

Living our love until our old days

Won't two-timing, I'm the only one for you

But now there's another guy inside your heart

It's as if the morning is cloudy

Then the day is rainy

In the afternoon you hurt me

And in the night I cry for you

I can only imagine

All of those had been just memories now

I rode you back, went through the way

Hugging under the rain

But now you are choosing

To be hugged by another guy

Do you not sense

How heavy-heartedly I am

Have to lost my loved one

Don't wanna leave my house

I have no appetite

If I'm not fed

Kakihara turned to me with a very serious face.

"I'm, going to ask Azusa out on a date, just the two of us." (Yuusuke)

――――Aah, is that so. EEEEH.

Since he said it with such a serious face, I thought he had made up his mind to confess his feelings.

He seemed to be a shy person to begin with, so it was probably a very big step for him to have made this decision. Apologies, but I'm not really that interested.

"I-it's finally, yes." (Rintaro)

"Yeah. We'll be busy with exams next year, and I figured this was my only chance." (Yuusuke)

"I agree. Yuusuke and Nikaido-san seem to be aiming for a pretty top college." (Rintaro)

"I'm not so, but Azusa seems to be aiming pretty top one....... I hope we can go to the same college." (Yuusuke)

Whoaa, this guy was madly in love with her.

The youth in the very front of my eyes was so dazzling that it made my head dizzy, as I had no tolerance for such things.

I really wished he would do it somewhere else. Please do it somewhere else.

"Do your best, Yuusuke-kun. I'll be rooting for you." (Rintaro)

"Oh, thank you. I'm going to get some lunch then. I'll go ahead." (Yuusuke)

"Yea. See you again." (Rintaro)

After changing his shoes, Kakihara walked straight out the front door.

As I watched his back with a sigh, someone tapped me on the shoulder from behind.

"Rintaro, sorry to keep you waiting. Were you talking to someone?" (Yukio)

"Hmm? Ah, Yukio, huh. As you saw, I was talking to Kakihara not too long ago." (Rintaro)

I indicated Kakihara's back with my chin as he headed toward the school gate.

"Come to think of it, you two have been pretty close since the cooking class, haven't you, Rintaro?" (Yukio)

"Close, huh? It might seem that way from the outside......." (Rintaro)

"? Is it really different?" (Yukio)

"Not really. I don't mean to treat him badly, but we haven't really had a chance to get to know each other yet. It's a little awkward to say we're close." (Rintaro)

No matter how much Kakihara treated me as a friend, I couldn't treat him that way. I never said it out loud, but I felt a little bad about it.

I'm not comfortable with being honest with others. Even without being told, I knew that my personality was never good. And I have no intention of going out of my way to change it to fit in with others.

I don't want to be disillusioned by people's expectations of me.

I'd rather remain put a facade than go through all the trouble.

"Well, let's just leave it at that. Do you mind if we study at my place?" (Rintaro)

"Eeh, that should be my lines. Is it okay if I intrude?" (Yukio)

"I've never had a chance to invite you to my new house. I'll prepare you a lunch." (Rintaro)

"Yaay, right in time, I was just hungry." (Yukio)

I took Yukio back to the apartment.

Standing in front of my new apartment for the first time, Yukio was stunned by its size.

"Is this the kind of place you're living in ......? Isn't the rent pretty expensive too......?" (Yukio)

"There' s been a bit of a situation...... I'll tell you about it sometime." (Rintaro)

I knew that I would eventually have to tell Yukio about my relationship with Rei.

She also told the two MilSta's what was going on. That was because Mia and Kanon are her irreplaceable friends, and for me, it was Inaba Yukio.

I felt uncomfortable keeping this secret from him.

After inviting him into the room, Yukio began to look around.

He exhaled reassuringly as he found furniture that had been in my previous house and was finally convinced that it was my house.

"I feel safer when I see things that I know. It's so different from before, it made me nervous for a moment." (Yukio)

"I couldn't get used to it for a while either. Ah yeah, is it okay to have Stir-fried Udon Noodles for lunch? I can make this in no time." (Rintaro)

"Yep. I have no problem." (Yukio)

"Then you can wait on the couch." (Rintaro)

I headed to the kitchen and take out the udon noodles, scallions, pork, and cabbage that I had purchased in advance.

I cut each into bite-sized pieces and sauteed them together in a frying pan. Seasoned with soy sauce and dashi stock, and added salt and pepper to taste.

"Here it is!" (Rintaro)

"Whoaa! Thank you!" (Yukio)

I places a bowl of freshly made stir-fried udon noodles in front of Yukio, who was very excited.

I sat down next to him and said, "Let's dig in," and moved my chopsticks.

"Let's dig in~! ――――Mmmm~! Delicious!" (Yukio)

"I'm glad to hear that. It's been a while since I made you a meal." (Rintaro)

"I guess so. I missed a little." (Yukio)

"Hey, hey...... don't say that in a creepy way." (Rintaro)

"originally translated by bujangga - pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id"

After we both slurped our udon, we set about our assignment as originally planned.

Of all the assignments, solving a math problem set was the simplest and most time-consuming. If we were going to finish it first, we would start with this one.

The only sound was the crunching sound of the mechanical pencil.

Neither Yukio nor I had bad grades in mathematics, so we were able to continue solving the problems without any particular stumbling blocks. So, when we get to this point, it was just a simple task. Only occasionally, when something difficult like an applied problem appeared, we consulted with each other――――.

"Hey, Yukio. About this one." (Rintaro)

"Aah, you can do it this way......." (Yukio)

And thus, if I asked Yukio, he'd immediately tell me how to solve it.

Of course, Yukio was not so lenient as to tell me the answer, so I had to solve the problem by myself after he taught me the method.

Of course, there might be some friendliness, but it was honestly easier to understand than a bad teacher.

We spent a few hours working on each other's assignments in this way.

As the sun began to set, we put down our mechanical pencils and exhaled at about the same time.

"I think we've made a lot of progress. I've already finished the math, and I've solved a lot of the classic literature problems." (Yukio)

"You're right. Just in time. Let's take a break. Want a cup of coffee?" (Rintaro)

"Can I have?" (Yukio)

"Of course. I'm already out of energy drinks." (Rintaro)

I didn't think I could take too much caffeine, but once I got over this point, the rest of my summer break would be nothing but fun.

I followed my brain's sugar craving and mixed milk and sugar into the drink I normally drank black.

Yukio preferred less milk and less sugar. I took the coffee, brewed it just as I remembered, and put it on the table.

"It's very generous of you. Thank you." (Yukio)

"You're teaching me about small, difficult subjects, and we're both here to help. So, what do you want to do today?" (Rintaro)

"What do I want to do?" (Yukio)

"I was thinking of staying the night. After one night of cramming, the assignments will be almost done, right?" (Rintaro)

"Eh, are you okay......?" (Yukio)

"As long as it's okay at your place. We can play a game or something when we get lazy with the assignments." (Rintaro)

"Y-yep!" (Yukio)

Yukio smiled, looking rather happy.

Although we had been together at school recently, we rarely spent time together after school because I had been spending time for Rei. So at least on the first day of summer break, it would be nice to spend some time together for a long time.

――――Besides.

"originally translated by bujangga - pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id"

"Rintaro, you're looking a little pale....... Are you okay?" (Yukio)

"Hmm? Y-yeah. No problem." (Rintaro)

"That so?" (Yukio)

Close call, close call. Did it show on my face?

I turned on my phone screen and check the date and day of the week.

Today was Friday, which meant tomorrow was Saturday, of course.

[Would you like to go out to dinner with me this Saturday? ......I'd like to hear why you were with Otosaki-san at the aquarium.]

Yes, tomorrow was the day of my appointment with Nikaido.

I will need some peaceful time with Yukio to get over this melancholy.

(Sorry, Yukio......)

I apologized in my heart for taking the liberty of treating him as a refreshment.

(PTW/N: Yukio is kind of Totsuka Saika/Hideyoshi's kins, I think.)
