99 – A Prize for You (2)

After thinking all morning about what to do to make Sirius happy, lunch time came.

I couldn’t remember what the class was about, and I didn’t think about what I would like, so I made a sullen expression. Nefeli, who took a bite out of a sandwich next to me, asked how I was doing.

“Where does it hurt? You’ve been staring blankly all morning, and now your complexion isn’t looking good… By any chance… Did that day come?”

I looked at my belly with a worried look. The pain of her monthly menstruation was severe, and as she looked at her with a worried gaze as she struggled every time, it reminded her of their first meeting.

Nefeli, who had introduced herself with a smile saying that she was in the same situation, suddenly changed her attitude after hearing my introduction.

“No. It’s just… I had a lot to think about, so you don’t have to worry. I’m fine.”

“If you’re thinking that deeply… You’re the only one Sirius is?”

With a smirk, he stared sharply at Shaula, who stabbed her right to the core, then let out a deep sigh as she calmed the tantrum that was seething in her heart.

‘Who caused this to happen!’

When Sirius and I were involved, her eyes lit up. Her eyes focused on the lunch in front of me, narrowing her eyes behind her.

When I cut the well-done salmon steak with a knife and put it in my mouth, the juice that reminded me of a river in which salmon swim spread in my mouth.

Sirius said he wasn’t good at cooking fish, so I wonder if Ruythena served it for me today?

I ordered salmon steak from Spring Rainbow before and thought I could copy it…

“Oh.”

Why didn’t I think of that?

I took away his first lips saying it was force majeure.

His dumbfounded expression throughout the meal.

And the laughter of everyone there.

I only had good memories of being there. After leaving the cafeteria, Sirius strangely hit the candle, which made me a little angry.

If you went there again today, how would Sirius react? Sirius became more curious than he liked.

“You were very sullen before, but now the corners of your mouth are getting caught in your ears and are about to tear.”

“I will~. What are you thinking about?”

Even Nefeli copied Shaula’s smile. She copied them so much that she thought the gray-haired Shaula was sitting next to her.

“It’s nothing, don’t worry about it.”

“Because I don’t care about you grinning after all that. Did you think of something to present to Sirius?”

“Yeah… I don’t know if he’ll like it, but I hope he likes it.”

I wanted to bring back unforgettable memories for the two of us. And I wanted to laugh together as I recalled those memories.

“If that’s the case…Are you referring to the spring rainbow?”

“…!”

I was startled by Shaula’s surprise attack, and my mouth opened as I was chewing on the salmon.

“What, what. Where is it and why are you so surprised? Is it a secret place only the two of you know?”

Shaula’s answer and my response, which opened her mouth in surprise, caused Neferi to shake her head busily to look at the two of us.

“It’s just one of the famous restaurants in the capital. It’s not grandiose, but it’s a place where couples visit a lot because of the restaurant’s unique atmosphere. You don’t know how I know about the two of you going there, right?”

I was so surprised that I couldn’t chew the salmon and swallowed it, then nodded my head up and down.

Because I had no idea how Sirius and I knew a secret that only the two of us knew.

As I stared at the moment when those looking lips would fall, he took a sip of the water he brought and looked at me, as if he was thirsty.

“Miss Europa, you haven’t been there since you stopped by around April, have you?”

“Ugh, ugh.”

I even knew when I went. When she answered her question with a nod of her head, she shook her head with her face in acknowledgment.

From noble mtl dot com

“…They draw couples designated by the manager every month and hang them on the wall. Didn’t you look closely?”

“What…What…?”

I was nervous to go in with Sirius so I couldn’t see it properly. Was there such a thing?

“That’s why it’s a popular place for couples. I went there once for market research and there was a picture that stood out to me. Wearing it with someone with dark hair…”

“Wow!”

The first scream came out of his mouth.

The truth that came out of Shaula’s mouth was embarrassing and cruel.

#

Although he behaves maturely for his age, his outward appearance is still a boy of the same age as Europa.

Ruy Thena shook her head, thinking that she might have said something harsh to the confused man in the middle of her puberty, the time of spring when she was searching for her baby flowers.

‘No…It’s all for the young lady. It’s for the young lady…’

He tried to rationalize his behavior and escape from guilt, but it was not easy.

It was time for Europa to come back from class, but the sight of Sirius sitting blankly at the table, far from feeling guilty, made his heart suffocate to the point of going crazy.

As I sighed deeply and tried to soothe my frustration, the front door burst open and Europa and Shaula entered.

Sirius, who had been sitting in a daze, also got up to greet them, but did not return.

“I’m waiting for you at the front door.”

It was only Europa’s command to point at the front door with his thumb.

Sirius, who had opened his mouth at the unexpected command, remembered what Louis Thena had said and respectfully bowed her head.

“…I will do as you command.”

Her Worried about how to look at her, like Ouroboros, a snake biting its own tail.

And like a Möbius strip of long paper twisted together, the end was invisible.

In the end, I was afraid to speak to her, so I didn’t even meet her face, and as I ran away, Shaulla looked at her back with her questioning eyes.

“He went out without asking why.”

“Yes. Normally, I would have asked why.”

Europa tilted his head and asked the same question, but he didn’t seem to care.

“Well, there must be circumstances. We’ll ask about that later. Today is a special day, so let’s start quickly. Can you help Luitena too?”

“Yes!? What, how can I help you…?”

She took out several makeup tools from her bag and showed her foxy smile.

“It is to decorate the master you serve in the most beautiful way ever.”

Seeing her wearing her multi-sized brushes between her fingers, her Louis Thena glanced at her Europa and barely nodded her head.

For her happiness, to receive Sirius’ honesty, and to forget her guilt, she took up her brush, hardening her heart.

“I’ll try to make it look as good as the bride of today’s wedding.”

When a silly word came out of her rather serious face, Europa was shocked, but Shaula was delighted and started discussing what concept to paint.

“Don’t you think we need to be a little more provocative today?”

“The lady is very good at the original plate, so even if you paint thinly, the butler’s eyes will go blind.”

“I like it. But first, try matching the outfit…”

“As I said, completely pure white like a bride…”

“I think that’s too much…”

Europe, who was looking at the two people in front of the person in front of them, who were playing drums and playing drums with anxious eyes, intuitively felt that something was wrong, and opened her mouth with trembling eyes.

“Can’t I just change my normal clothes and go…?”

“No!”

With the shouts of the two, of course, her opinion was ignored. She had to sit still, as in the end she became a doll for the two of them.

If Louis Thena hadn’t brought up such a story, she would have questioned the young lady’s orders as usual.

But she was ungainly, unable to say anything, and she ran away. She couldn’t look straight into the face of the girl passing by.

First love. The blessing or the curse of having her first love in her head, in her heart, for the rest of her life.

It was up to me whether the young lady’s first love would become a blessing and a memory that I would always be happy to remember, or a curse and an unforgettable regret even if I wanted to forget it.

Am I worth it?

I shook my head in frustration when the answer to the question I asked myself came up with only a few wrong answers, but no answer came out.

“Why are you shaking your head like that? Where does it hurt?”

The lady’s absurd voice hit the back of the head, but she couldn’t bear to look back easily.

As the lady did in the morning, it was hard to see her face. But it was clear that if she didn’t look back, she would be suspicious.

“She came out earlier than expected… Did you?”

I looked back at her, trembling, and almost stopped breathing. It was the moment when the two people’s doll play shone.

Her chin and nape of her neck, which had always been covered by a neatly tied ponytail, were clearly exposed.

Her face was full of life with light makeup as a base and touches added to the area around her eyes and cheeks.

“I was tormented by two people for over an hour, and I finally came out, but what happened earlier…What, what are you staring at so much…?”

She could barely take her eyes off her as the grumbling girl sighed and winced as her face blushed.

Instead, she was staring at my face, waiting for her answer, so her lips barely parted.

“…You’re completely different from usual.”

Wearing her collarbone exposed, she wore a light pink cardigan over a white off-the-shoulder shirt to cover her exposed shoulders, while increasing exposure with a short skirt that didn’t reach her knees.

Seeing that someone who usually wears at least one dark blue color outfit when going out wears it brightly and glaringly this time, all the trivial worries about how to look at her face disappeared at once.

I realized at once that the unpoetic saying that a woman’s transformation is innocent is true.

“It’s different, it’s different. It took me longer than usual to put on makeup, and I wore clothes a little differently than usual. The skirt is short, and the shirt is hanging around my shoulders, so it’s difficult to move when I’m in a situation. But…”

I wondered if she was moving around and complaining about the clothes.

“How is it…? Does it fit…?”

“You must have some clothes that don’t suit you.”

“…Don’t think about going overboard with such empty words, just say it straight up.”

Just looking around made her eyes half-moon and her cheeks puffed out. However, unlike usual, those eyes looked like they were complaining to be praised.

“I thought you came dressed in spring.”

“…I didn’t mean to say something that would come out of a novel like that, but hearing it gave me goosebumps. Don’t bring up such a thing in the future.”

When I saw the surprised lady stroking her forearm, I felt how bad my sense was and smiled bitterly. Thinking back on it, it was a truly chilling answer.

“Well…But that’s not too bad…”

…Why do you like that again?

I was really dumbfounded by the reaction of the young lady who was sure that the bean pods were properly covered.

“…Why are you still laughing…”

I felt like an idiot myself, and I laughed because the lady’s appearance was funny. The worries I had so far were washed away when I saw the young lady’s blushing face.

She smiled naturally when I was with her. He regained his composure by hearing that the troubles and wrong answers had been telling him that the lady’s face was the correct answer.

“There’s nothing wrong with it. Now that I think about it, it’s cheesy.”

“This, this, you fool!”

Is it because he regained his composure? Thanks to the sechi tongue that moved freely, she kicked my calf with all her might while wearing that short skirt.
