CH 77

–It’s a late afternoon in the middle of summer.

The sun is shining so brightly that it feels like it’s trying to assert itself.

The sun’s rays pierced the train and made me think I might have melted if the air conditioning hadn’t kicked in.

I don’t want to go outside like this: …….

The air-conditioned train was so comfortable that I could easily call it a summer escape.

The swaying train is like a cradle that draws you to sleep and I saw a number of people sleeping around me.

It’s nice to be able to sleep …….

I sigh as I look at those people with resentment.

I pinched my cheek lightly and decided to ignore the weight on my shoulder and look out the window to change my mood.

Through the window, I could see the lush green mountains and countryside.

Not a single familiar gray building in sight.

–Nature.

Yes, it’s all green.

Beautiful deep green and still fresh yellowish green …….

The countryside is nice.

There’s none of the hustle and bustle of the city and it makes me feel like I’m being cleansed.

“Fu …”

The tranquil scenery makes me feel calm and relaxed.

I took a big breath of air, and even though I was on a train, it felt like it was full of negative ions.

(TLN: Howww????)

I took a deep breath to fully enjoy it.

Smelling this can make you feel calm …….

I’m sure you’ll be able to calm down …….

Yes, calm down–

“Soo …… soo …….”

I can’t …… calm down!

I looked at Rin, who was leaning on my shoulder as she slept and sighed.

I’m tempted to look at her, but I can’t look at her all the time, so I quickly turn my gaze out the window.

Damn it!

There’s no way I can calm down in this state!

My mind is clear, and my distractions are gone. ……

But no matter how hard I try to drown them out, the distractions won’t go away.

I can’ t ……, I can’ t …….

In this situation, resistance is pointless.

If it had been just the usual sleep breathing, it might have been okay, because I was somewhat used to it.

Well, …… that’s not exactly okay either …….

But I could avoid it if we were sleeping at home.

If it’s too much for me, I can just run to the bathroom or something and sleep away from Rin, so it’s not a problem.

(TLN: Bruh)

Unfortunately, it doesn’t make much sense. ……

I’m usually next to her when I notice her. ……

If I try to run away, I’ll be taken back home and told, “You’ll catch a cold if you sleep there. If you try to run away, you’ll be taken back to the room.”

That’s why I’m giving up these days. ……

Anyway, it is much harder to avoid the problem on the train than at home.

“Why don’t you just get up from your seat?” You might ask, but …… I can’t do that.

Right now, Rin is leaning on my shoulder, asleep.

If I tried to move here, I would wake her up immediately.

It was different from slowly slipping out of the futon.

Besides – Rin usually stays up late at night to take care of the house.

She does all the housework, tutors me, and studies for herself.　 Occasionally, she does some work that our teachers ask her to do. ……

There is no doubt that she is sleep deprived.

That’s why I can’t take the chance of waking her up.

It’s not like I’m afraid to throw dirt on people who have been good to me.

I do not want to be that inhuman. ……

–But it’s also true that this situation is troubling.

In a train, the closeness is much higher.

It’s even worse when you’re seated next to someone and you’ re at the end of the row.

And what’s more, the current season is summer …….

From my position, my view naturally catches Rin’s assertive place.

She is wearing a light blue blouse and skirt.

The skirt was a little short and emphasized Rin’s slender legs wonderfully.

Hah …….

I want Rin to think a little more before she chooses her clothes.

“You don’t even know what I’m going through. ……”

I poked Rin on the cheek, who was sleeping comfortably, as if to complain about my dissatisfaction.

Yeah, …….

Excellent elasticity as usual.

Even though they are not fat, they are soft, and even though it is summer, they are not sticky from sweat.

In fact, it feels smooth and silky.

It’s really addictive… …….

If only she didn’t say, “No……” in a seductive voice every time I poked her …….

I sighed again, glanced sideways at Rin, who was sleeping comfortably and looked back down at the scenery.

Perhaps it was because it was summer, but my body felt strangely on fire.

It’s definitely not because of Rin leaning against me. ……

I told myself that over and over again, and complained in my mind to my bad friend who created this situation, “Don’t do anything extra.”.
