“Good morning, Takanashi!”
“Morning.”
“Good morning!”
The regular before-class routine with no more obstruction to worry about in my daily high school life.
I sometimes look back. If you had asked me before meeting Sara-senpai, I’d say having a fulfilling high school life would be a dream.
As I was having such thoughts, Yamakawa approached me.
“Good morning, Takanashi. Were you alright yesterday? I talked about it with Yokogawa. Did those strange guys do anything to you?”
Apparently, he knows about yesterday’s incident.
He seemed to have talked to Hayato but didn’t know the details.
“Oh, is that so? Thanks for worrying. I only talked to them and it all went fine.”
“Oh, that’s all right then.”
Yamakawa’s personality was not that of a two-faced guy, but rather an easy-to-deal, easy-to-talk-to guy.
*Slides open*
“Excuse me.”
Hayato’s appearance before the morning HR has become an everyday occurrence.
“Good morning, Kazunari.”
“Good morning, Hayato.”
As he approached my seat, I raised one hand in greeting.
I should thank Hayato for yesterday.
“Hayato, thanks for your help yesterday. I’d like to give you something for yesterday’s troubles.”
He sensed what I wanted to say even though I didn’t finish the sentence and responded vaguely.
“I didn’t do much. Hmm, then… will you go out with me sometime?”
“””Kyaaaaaah!”””
!?
Whenever I’m talking to Hayato, that corner of the room is always noisy… What’s up with them?
“Alright. But where would that be?”
“Yosh. I’ll give you the details later, okay?
After saying that, Hayato went back to his class.
It’s been a long time since I went out with friends other than Yuji.
That’s right. It would be fun to fool around, the three of us…
——————————————
It’s lunchtime. It was another happy lunch break again, as usual.
I ate Senpai’s lunch box, the most delicious, and my most significant source of nutrition.
Today, Sara-senpai has been staring at me, smiling from ear to ear, since I started eating.
Every time our eyes make contact, she smiles happily, making me embarrassed.
“Takanashi-san, how was it? Please let me know if you have any concerns or requests, okay?”
Thinking about it, it was her first time asking me about it.
The same thing happened this morning. It’s strange that Senpai straightforwardly asked me for an impression.
“Sara-senpai, I can’t say anything besides it’s very delicious. It’s the best, so please continue making it the way you make them.”
“Takanashi-san… alright, I understand. I will continue trying to make Takanashi-san think it’s the best… Fufu, as expected, you didn’t notice it, right?”
Sara-senpai laughed, moved a little on the picnic sheet, and sneaked closer to me.
“Sara?”
“Sara-senpai?”
She took a handkerchief and reached for my face.
“Takanashi-san, please don’t move.”
I felt a wiping sensation on my mouth.
I thought she would just leave after she finished. However, same as this morning, she didn’t move.
What’s this… I feel like she’s being closer than usual…
I may be mistaken, but it looked like Senpai’s spoiling me as usual.
“Please teach me all about love.”
That’s what Senpai told me.
Perhaps Senpai was thinking of an idea and acting on it.
If that is the case, I should be proactive too.
It’s challenging to do it right away, but I should tell her what I have been holding back and hesitating to say to her.
Suddenly, I directed my gaze towards Sara-senpai’s head.
Senpai has been patting my head lately. Maybe I should pat her head…?
I secretly put my hand behind her back and stroked her head.
“Takanashi-san…!”
At first, Sara-senpai showed a surprised expression. But as I stroked her, she looked happy and moved even closer to me.
“Sara-senpai… how does it feel? I’m always happy when you do this for me. And I feel relieved when I can touch you like this.”
“Yes. I’m pleased to have Takanashi-san do this (to me). I feel a sense of security when Takanashi-san is by my side. I am happy to be touched in this way…”
“I also feel happy to be with Sara-senpai. I’ll be even happier if you feel the same way.”
Honestly, it felt embarrassing. But I told Senpai how I felt.
I was so glad to see her happy face that I kept stroking her for a while.
“…Hey, I’m still here.”
Sorry. I forgot that Natsumi-senpai was here from the start…
“Good morning, Takanashi!”
“Morning.”
