About the Time I Picked up an Angel in the Park and She Said “I Like You”

“Hey Ren, have you guys changed?”

“What’s up, so suddenly…”

Suddenly, Takuto curiously asked about me and Kaede.

It’s probably not about looks or anything like that. Maybe it’s about our relationship.

“Ah, well, just a little.”

“Oh? Whoa?! Whoa!”

“W-what the h**l…”

“You finally did it~, finally ~. It took such a long time… such a long time. Ren, do you have anything to say to me?”

Takuto grinned and looked at me.

I didn’t think I had hide it, or rather, I didn’t think I’d have to hide it, so I decided to talk about it.

“U-Umm, well, I have decided to date her properly, not temporarily, Thank you.”

“Well, if there is anything I can do to help you in the future, please let me know and I will help you as the first Bacouple and as a senior.”

“Yes yes, thank you.”

Takuto emphasized his seniority. Maybe he wanted to sound like a senior, but it didn’t suit him at all.

“Yeah! That’s right!”

Takuto stood up vigorously as if he had come up with something.

(What, is he up to something weird again? …)

“Hey, let’s go on a  double date!”

“D-Double, you say?”

“Look, you guys are already dating, so it will be just me, Chinatsu, Kaede-san, and you.”

“Aside from me, I have to ask Kaede too.”

“I think it’s all right….”

Takuto then called Kaede over to our desk. When Kaede heard about the double date, she was like a dog that was happy and wagging her tail knowing she could go for a walk.

“If you want to go, Ren-kun, that’s fine, okay?.”

Kaede glanced at me.

(You’re really appealing that you want to go…)

“Fine by me…”

“Okay, I’ll go with you.”

“Then it’s decided!

“What is the date and time~” Takuto was deciding when and where to go.

If possible, the place could be anywhere as long as it was enjoyable, but the time should not be early in the morning, for example.

As I was thinking about that, Chinatsu approached me, perhaps because Kaede had called her.

“Ah, Chinatsu-san, it seems like we’re going on a double date this time.”

“Heh~, Is that so….”

“Chinatsu? You’re in, too.”

“Ah! Yes, that’s right. ….”

Chinatsu’s smile was like a forced smile as she said “ahaha”.

After that, Chinatsu’s eyes went to Takuto, but at that time, Chinatsu’s eyes were clearly more angry than dissatisfied with Takuto.

“I’m looking forward to going with Kae-chan!”

“You can go with Takuto.”

“I don’t know Takuto.”

Chinatsu said, “Let me know when you decide on a time or something,” and then returned to her seat, looking tense and ready for her next class.

“Hey, what did you do?”

“A-actually…”

I asked Takuto why Chinatsu was acting like that.

Whenever he was like this, it was definitely a sign that something was wrong.

“I was planning to go see the cherry blossoms during spring break, but I forgot my promise to Chinatsu and was hanging out with my friends…”

“So that’s what happened….”

“It’s my fault. ..”

“I’ll tell you if I hear anything from Chinatsu-san.”

Takuto bowed. Kaede saw this and panicked, “Please don’t!

“Well, I’m looking forward to going on a date with Kaede, so maybe I should be the one to thank you.”

“Ren…you.”

“Ren-kun sometimes says such things so casually that it’s not fair.”

“Kaede-san, you are so loved.”

I felt ashamed of what I said after Takuto and Kaede told me.

My face was hot with embarrassment, but I hid my face, which was probably red, with my arms.

“The way you hide your face is also cute.”

“No, please don’t.”

“I’m the one who suffers the most? Both of you…”

Takuto chuckled as he said so. And so it was decided that we would have a double-date.

And I was hoping that Takuto and Chinatsu would make up.
