Summer means sea.

I have often heard such a line.

Well, it is not wrong. In fact, except for surfers and fishermen, most people don't go to the beach unless it's summer.

However, this means that summer is not the sea, but the sea is the summer, isn't it? In other words, there is no summer in the ocean, but the ocean in the summer――――.

"Darn! not there yet!" (Rintaro)

I shouted to the sky on the asphalt, where not a single shadow could be seen except for the occasional car passing by.

I tried desperately to think of something unimportant to forget the heat, but that didn't help. Under the sun that burned everything, no human tricks would work.

"Those girls...... If the place is far from the bus stop, then tell me in advance." (Rintaro)

Sweat is dripping from my chin, as I grumble to myself.

This is a seaside prefecture far from Tokyo. It took a few hours to get there by train. Another hour by bus from the station I arrived at. And when I finally arrived at my destination, it was another hour on foot.

I left home at seven in the morning, but it was around noon before I realized it.

My destination was a seaside hotel――or a seaside cottage――with a private beach where Rei and the others would be staying.

(Damn......, I never thought I'd end up like this.)

I had worn a hat to protect myself from the sun, but the heat is starting to penetrate it.

Perhaps, or perhaps not, this road is designed to be driven on. It is not suitable for walking.

There is not even a single vending machine, both sides of the road are full of weeds, and not even a tall tree to provide shade.

To put it bluntly, I want to go home.

Rei had told me to make unforgettable memories, but my heart was already breaking.

"Mmm...... is that it?" (Rintaro)

A house made of wood came into view at the end of the road.

If it is not a mirage, it must be the cottage of my destination.

I'm saved――――.

The words spontaneously leak out of my mouth as if I had been lost in the mountains.

I had drunk all the drinks I had brought with me, and I was prepared to die if I had to walk any further. When I finally feel like I can rest, my stamina, which should have bottomed out, comes back to life a little.

Now, in order to get to the cottage, I have to pass a guest card key through the gate to enter the premises from the outside, or ask someone to open it from the inside.

Of course, I don't have a card key, so I'm supposed to ask the girls to open the gate for me.

First, I take out my phone and call Rei.

"......Hello." (Rintaro)

[Mmm......ye~s......] (Rei)

"You're waking up. you're just waking from sleep, huh." (Rintaro)

[Good morning......?] (Rei)

"It's noon already. Anyway, can you open the gate for me? I can smell the burnt smell on my body." (Rintaro)

[That's exaggerating.......] (Rei)

"Shut up and open the gate already!" (Rintaro)

[Kay......] (Rei)

A few moments later, the gate in front of me slowly opens.

Stepping onto the grounds, I see a familiar blonde walking toward me from the cottage.

"Welcome, Rintaro." (Rei)

"Hey, I never heard I had to walk this far." (Rintaro)

"That was my miscalculation. Sorry." (Rei)

"I'm not mad at you, but I might get a little cranky if I don't get some water right now." (Rintaro)

"Mm, That will be a problem. For now, come inside, where it's nice and cool." (Rei)

I enter the cottage as Rei leads me.

The air-conditioned room, with its distinctive wood aroma tickling my nose, is indeed very pleasantly cool.

From the window, I can see the rumored private beach, with the waves glistening in the sunlight as they come and go.

"Is plain water okay?" (Rei)

"Hmm? Ah, it's okay." (Rintaro)

While I was engrossed in this scene, Rei, who had moved to the refrigerator before I knew it, tosses me a plastic bottle.

It's a bottle of chilled water.

I open the lid as if in a hurry and pour the contents down my throat.

"――――! Yum......" (Rintaro)

"I've never seen Rintaro so happy." (Rei)

"I'm feeling so alive right now...... that I can make a face like this." (Rintaro)

My body, which had been overheated, cools down quickly, and the brain regains its normal functioning.

I don't like to torture my body too much, but if the water tastes this good, it might be good once in a while.

"This is a Translation Content of pemudatunawisata[dot]my[dot]id. so, read only on there."

"――――My! you're finally here, Rintaro-kun."

"Mmm?" (Rintaro)

Before I know it, Mia is looking down at us from the second floor of the atrium.

She comes downstairs and goes to the refrigerator to get a bottle of water, the same one I have.

"Are you also just waking up?" (Rintaro)

"Well, yeah. We were shooting under the blazing sun all day yesterday, so I guess I was pretty tired." (Mia)

"Ah......, then I'm sorry about that." (Rintaro)

This apology is directed at Rei.

As she's not a particularly morning person, it must have been very hard for her to be woken up suddenly.

"Umm,  It was my fault that I made Rintaro walk so far. I should have at least ordered him a cab or something." (Rei)

"A high school boy with so much energy doesn't need that much support. So don't worry about it." (Rintaro)

All right, I think I've regained enough strength to be strong.

"So what about Kanon?" (Rintaro)

"Ah, she is――――." (Mia)

Mia points to the second floor.

Then from somewhere there comes the sound of a door opening, and half a head with red hair can be seen over the balustrade of the atrium.

"Mmn~...... what is there? There's a lot of noise......." (Kanon)

"Kanon, Rintaro's here." (Mia)

"Mmwhoa? He is?" (Kanon)

Kanon, with her hair down, comes down the stairs.

Her twin-tails are her trademark on stage, and when she wears her hair down, she looks more mature than usual.

However, there is one problem.

She was wearing a camisole, probably a nightgown, but the shoulder straps were slipping and almost revealing her breasts.

I'll be lying indeed if I say that I honestly am not interested――――but my sexual desire is not so inflamed that it gets the better of my rational mind, so I silently turn my back to Kanon.

"Nn...... what? Why are you turning your face away?" (Kanon)

"Kanon, your br*asts are almost shown." (Rei) (PTW/N: it can be "br34sts" or "cl34vage" because it's censored "乳○".)

"Huh?" (Kanon)

Rei, the way you say it is too blunt.

"Ri――――Rintaro's an idiot! Pervert!" (Kanon)

"I won't apologize. You knew I was coming and you came out looking like that." (Rintaro)

You were right! I'm sorry about that!" (Kanon)

I hear footsteps rushing back upstairs.

This kind of honesty is a good thing about her.

I was relieved that she didn't beat me up unreasonably like those tropes in romantic comedies.

"Ah right, by the way, Rintaro-kun. Actually, we haven't had breakfast yet." (Mia)

"If you guys just woke up, then no wonder." (Rintaro)

"If it is possible, I would like you to cook breakfast and lunch for us." (Mia)

"Heh?" (Rintaro)

I look at Rei with a sideways glance. Then she gives a single nod and agrees with Mia.

"I hadn't eaten Rintaro's food for a while since the shooting started, so I was missing his cooking by now. ......Can I have some?" (Rei)

"I don't feel bad to hear you say that. Do you have any ingredients?" (Rintaro)

"The fridge is stuffed with a lot of things, mostly BBQ meats and such, though......." (Rei)

We can have a BBQ, huh. I think I'll prepare for it later.

I open the fridge and sure enough, there are a variety of ingredients in there.

Vegetables and meat are all in stock. Although many of the condiments are not very seasonable, there will be no inconvenience unless you want to make an incredibly elaborate dish.

"I think I'll go for salted yakisoba." (Rintaro)

For now, let's just make something quick and easy.

I grab some pork, green onions, and cabbage as needed, and then pile some noodles, presumably for the BBQ, on top of them.

I quickly head for the kitchen, trying not to let them see my face break into a smile.

After confirming that this cottage is equipped with what is called an "island kitchen," I've been dying to try it out.
