Chapter 38 "Unexpected Situation"

 

"Aoyagi-kun, why don't we go this way...?"

"Eh, but ... that will be a very long route.."

 

 The direction Charlotte pointed to was less crowded and a long route to get to school.

 We didn't spend much time pulling Emma off, but We were still heading to school later than usual.

 If we took this route, it seemed that we would arrive at school at the last minute.

 

"I know that ..."

 

 Charlotte looked away from me and was still moody.

 

 (Is there any reason behind taking this long route ?)

 I was honestly happy because I could spend more time with her.

 In particular, this road would be low-crowded until we get near the school.

 Moreover, there was almost no possibility that students from the same school passing by.

 

 After all, the road was a little steep ...

 

 If  I think about it normally, I don't want to get tired before school, and it's not good to arrive at the last minute.

 

 However, if I could be with Charlotte, of course--

"Yeah, then let's go from there. I think it’s good to go once in a while to enjoy different views"

 -I accepted with a smile.

 

I gave her an appropriate reason because I didn’t want her to know that I agreed on it so I could spend more time with her.

 

 If I would have given that as the reason, it would be like declaring thatI was interested in her.

 And I had to avoid it.

 

"Oh, thank you! That ... I'm sorry, I just asked selfishly today ..."

"No, it's okay. I think it's better off ,if you don't hesitate to tell me."

 

 After smiling happily , Charlotte apologized, so I told her my thoughts .

 In fact, I thought that we were much closer than when we first met.

 I still felt like she was scared of me, but she told me what she wants was because she thought I'm someone she can be selfish with.

 

 I didn’t think that she would ever look down on others.

 

 So I thought she recognizes that we were close enough where it's okay to be selfish..

 

"... What should I do ... At this rate ... I'm going to become very spoiled ..."

 

 When Charlotte heard my words, she was standing down with his hands on his cheeks and was muttering something.

 

( Does she have a habit of talking to herself ...? )

 Well, in the case of Charlotte, even if she talked to herself , it would be a very beautiful scene, so it doesn't bother me much ...

 

"Sorry, if we're going from that road, we'll be late if we don't go soon ..."

"Ah-I'm sorry! Well then, let's go."

 

 Charlotte returned to me and hurriedly raised her face and smiled.

 And the two of us started walking together       - and after all, Charlotte grabed the sleeve of my clothes.

 

 ――But there was another unexpected thing.

 

"Hah ... Hah ... I'm sorry ....Aoyagi-kun ..."

 

 While aiming for school, Charlotte walking next to me apologized in a painful voice.

 Her breath was getting rough and her sweaty face looked very painful.

 Charlotte didn't seem like she would be able to walk alone, so she was hugging my arm while walking.

 

 The reason why Charlotte did this was because we took a detour and there was a problem with Charlotte's physical strength.

 It was a little steep road with a bad footing, but Charlotte was about to fall at every turn.

 It would have been fine if she was a little careful , but maybe Charlotte had a weak core.

 That's why she quickly lost her posture.

 And when she tried to get back in position, it consumed  a lot of physical strength.

 

 At the end of the steep hill I stopped her.

 Charlotte, who was trying hard not to bother me, was too exhausted while climbing the hill.

 

 I had the image that she could do anything, but when I saw this weakness and lack of physical strength, she may not be good at exercising ...

 

 In that case, I should have told in advance that the road was steep ...

 

"Are you okay? If it's too difficult, why don't we take a break?"

"But ... if you do that, we'll be late ... Aoyagi-kun, please go first ... I'll go later ..."

"I can't do that, What if something happens?"

 

 Leaving Charlotte in her current state could be life-threatening due to dehydration and sunstroke.

 Even though it was September now, the temperature hadn't changed from summer.

 

"Uh ... I'm really sorry ..."

 

 Charlotte apologized, almost in tears.

 

 To be honest, I never thought that such a situation would occur just by going to school together.

 However, there is nothing I can do about it, as I had agreed to go to school on this road.

 So it wasn’t her fault.

 

"You don't have to worry, you can put up a little more weight on me, then you can more easily , and also we can walk faster. After that, let's talk about something fun.-Yes, Charlotte. Tell me the story of your favorite manga. "

 

 Even a delicate woman like Charlotte can walk if she put her whole weight on me.

I decided to talk about her favorite topic so that she wouldn't be too conscious of me.
