Although I really want to go to school with Inaba together.

Sasaki persevered.

Does it stand out too much?

Still, they are teachers and students.

If you show off like that, you get tired in many ways.

As I slowly walked back the way I came, I realized something.

I didn’t notice because the school was in a relatively low-lying area.

It’s good when you come up, but it’s hell when you go up.

When I arrived, I was already drenched in sweat.

I should have gotten off at William and come up. I came here for no reason.

If this is the case, it will be no different from Inaba today. Tsk tsk.

When I got home and was getting ready to take a shower,

The bell rang.

Inaba?

Ding dong-

Ding dong-

“Wait a minute!”

I arrived as quickly as possible to avoid the movers and opened the front door.

And Inaba looked neater than in the morning.

Just like before, I want to see a smiling face while drawing a V with my hand.

As a bonus, the fangs that appear when you smile.

I swallowed my saliva.

Maybe it was because of the game at the baseball stadium earlier.

Her hair was wet, as if she had just taken a shower.

Wearing pants for a light run.

Basically, a woman who exercises gives strength to a man just by looking at those letters.

Especially when your thighs are exposed like that.

“Sasaki-sensei! I’m here. Oh and”

Inaba’s body turned to the side.

As if there was someone there.

No, right? Inaba?

＊＊＊

“Ta-da!”

Inaba lifted what was next to him.

An object hanging before my eyes.

“I brought you some ingredients for dinner! For some reason, it looks like you haven’t eaten yet”

Inaba opened his mouth with a sigh.

“Sasaki-sensei! You didn’t eat, right?”

“Why do you think that..?”

“Looking at it, I said it this morning, but what would Mr. Sasaki say..?”

“What can I say?”

“You look like a master and won’t even touch your hands!”

The way he looks at himself.

There is zero trust.

I got angry and opened my mouth.

“I can also boil ramen..”

I know how to cook ramen while speaking with my own mouth.

It didn’t look like he was showing any pride or a confident attitude, so I turned my head in the middle.

“First of all. Miss Ayame. Come inside. As you can see, it hasn’t been sorted out yet.”

“Hey, excuse me!”

Unlike saying something powerfully.

Inaba steps carefully.

Inaba, who was looking inside curiously, came in and took off his shoes in the shoe cabinet.

As if lost in memories, Inaba opened his mouth and pointed to the shoe rack.

“Ah. Here’s this! Cook, click, it’s the same! It’s a scratch that Shota made while playing around when he was young”

“Really? I’ll have to go to school tomorrow and scold you.”

While saying that, I looked at Inaba.

Our eyes met.

“Because it’s my home now”

“That’s right!…I’ll prepare a meal for you!”

He looks embarrassed.

The envelope I was carrying was spinning like a top.

still,

hmm. Definitely better than having a man alone.

I feel brightened just by having a pretty girl nearby.

Feeling mentally at ease

Chi-Ik-

Bang bang bang-

The gorgeous cooking sound of something being stir-fried.

It rang for a moment and then stopped.

“Done!”

Inaba hid his hands behind his waist and came out holding something.

This Rubco cliché is obvious.

Rather, it was obvious, so Sasaki was excited.

If you’re a heroine, and your childhood friend is a heroine, cooking skills are the basic soup rules.

I’ve never heard a sound like that made while cooking.

What kind of dish did it make that sound?

A question appeared on my face.

Inaba smiled.

“It’s my special dish. Mr. Sasaki”

oh. Inaba’s face is full of pride.

Can I have some expectations?

“Dugudugu. Fried egg and soy sauce rice!”

“…..oh..ooh”

If I didn’t have expectations, I wouldn’t have felt anything.

Acting as if you were expecting something like that and coming out after hearing something like that.

Soy sauce egg rice.

It is difficult for any country to respond well.

“? Do you hate egg soy sauce rice? It’s delicious”

“Geu. no. I like it”

After a brief conversation, Sasaki noticed.

Inaba is not good at cooking.

Considering you ignored me earlier… Inaba?

Don’t you think your cooking skills are similar to mine…?

“I heard Shota eats well. Hmm?”

“kekeke. You have grit. Kiyoshi Islands”

Well, the taste was normally delicious.

If you fail at this, you’re not even the female lead of an anime.

At least it is difficult for even a beginner to fail at frying eggs.

I must have eaten too. Inaba rolled up his sleeves and stood up.

He looks like he’s about to wash the dishes, putting away the dishes he just ate.

Sasaki opened his mouth at that.

“Mr. Sasaki. Wrapping up, shall we finish this right away?”

“Good. But wait a moment, Miss Ayame.”

“Yes?”

I shook my head as Inaba gave me a puzzled look.

It’s something I’ve always thought about, but it’s a bit wrong to keep calling her Ayame-san.

It’s hard to sing too. It’s four letters long.

“Just call me Sasaki. Miss Ayame. Because I’m more comfortable that way”

Inaba’s hand suddenly stiffened, as if frozen by my words.

Seeing his stiff appearance, Sasaki took a step forward.

I’m so upset that this has happened.

“and”

“…”

“Can I call you Inaba now? I moved into the house next door too. Now we-”

“Now…?”

gulp-

“You’re a childhood friend.”

“Childhood friend…?”

“Okay. We lived next door and went to school together”

“Well, does that happen?”

“Okay then. At this level, you can see it as a gap between reeds”

“Hehe”

What were you thinking?

Inaba’s unique, cute voice came out.

Did I push myself too hard?

Inaba looks like he’s about to run away.

I changed the topic.

“Shall I pack up my luggage?”

“Yes, yes!”

It was as if my words were a lifeline.

Inaba, who came to his senses, agreed and began to pack up his luggage.

The luggage was sorted out faster than expected, probably because it was done by two people.

He looked a little flustered and seemed to relax.

Listening to the everyday stories of Inaba that I occasionally hear.

I saw Inaba.

“So at that time, Shota-”

I don’t know about Inaba, who moves constantly as if he’s concentrating.

Dust on your face.

I slowly approached her.

“Just sort this out and you’re done.”

“Thank you for today.”

Unlike what she had focused on just a moment ago, she immediately reacted to the narrowed distance.

It hurts my heart to think that we are one step closer.

I can feel the confusion up to this point.

Then I stopped walking and opened my mouth.

“There is dust on my head.”

“..Thank you”

widely-

“That’s it. But…you’re not going to call me by name? Inaba”

“Eh?”

The distance got closer.

Our eyes meet.

“Now that I think about it, I have homework!”

Inaba’s pupils were shaking slightly.

ran away.

I turned around and left the entrance behind.

There’s still a little bit of luggage left.

“Let’s finish and sleep”

＊＊＊

5 o’clock in the morning.

Alarm clock sound.

Then he got out of the blanket.

I haven’t gotten used to it yet, but my body moves honestly.

The process of brushing your teeth, washing your face, putting on a suit and going out.

Still, I felt a little worried.

I think I felt a sense of distance because of what happened yesterday.

Today too, 10 minutes passed normally.

I knew it was a rainy day when I heard the crunching sound.

Inaba appeared loudly.

Bread in your mouth.

Inaba stopped as if embarrassed when he saw me.

I spoke to her before she could finish feeling embarrassed.

“Inaba”

ah. It falls.

Put the bread in your mouth.

Today it’s grape jam.

“Thank you for this morning too.”

Inaba’s face turned red again, like yesterday’s déjà vu.

A heated face.

“You’re late for school, right? I’ll give you a ride”

“Ugh…Mr. Sasaki”

“Sasaki”

“Sasaki Seo-”

“Sasaki”

Inaba reluctantly lowered his head and opened his mouth.

Mouth opening slowly.

“Sasaki…”

Before the heat that started on his face was expressed outside, Inaba spoke quietly.

“..Teacher”

Is this really that shameful?

As someone who still has a sense of self as a Korean, I didn’t understand.

Unlike yesterday, I held Inaba’s hand first and lifted him onto the bike.

Seeing his hesitation, he moved first.

“Inaba. Today will be different”

“Yes, yes! W-what is it?”

“William is in good condition today”

“Ah…”

“What were you thinking? Inaba. Last night?”

haha. With a small smile, I lifted the pedal.

The hand naturally comes to the front of the stomach.

I’ll make it a habit.

“That-”

Just like yesterday, we left before there was any rebuttal.

“It’s better to hold on tight. Because it might fall. Inaba”

Something soft is crushing on my back.

Is there anything different here from yesterday?

Our skin touches each other through thin fabric.

Vibration that can be felt directly.

The sound made by Inaba’s heart.

Well, isn’t this a bad thing?

I put more pressure on my feet.

If it’s more intense, wouldn’t you run more?

William will show you his strength.

Is spring in the air slowly?

A panoramic view of the village was visible to my eyes.

The atmosphere of the village.

small river.

Sunlight shining down.

And the flower buds gradually grow larger.

Is that the seed planted in Inaba?

It was hard to tell if it was cherry blossoms or not.

Today more than yesterday.

Tomorrow rather than today.

The town is slowly turning pink.

I also had a hard time telling them apart.

Squeak-

After passing the freezing new downhill, I arrived at the school gate.

30 minutes.

I was late because I was in a bad mood.

Because I’m not familiar with the road yet.

I got off the bike, making excuses in my mind and pretending not to know anything.

” Again! I’m late! And.. this time too!”

Inaba looks angry.

I turned my head and opened my mouth.

“But…it was fun, right?”

Same words as yesterday.

After a moment of silence.

Inaba ran away beyond the school gate, but it wasn’t the question I was particularly expecting.

When I excitedly turned around to put my bike in the storage locker.

A sound was heard.

“Yes, it was fun.”

in front of the main gate

Inaba’s face turned red.

It was too far away so I couldn’t hear it clearly.

Obviously, I sang it in full this time.

” …Sasaki”

Aside from that, it’s about life at the academy.

It’s fun.
