Chapter 71: Easily Understood And Carefree

“Are you okay!? The tip of your pen broke!”

“It’s because you started talking about weird things!”

Kashiwagi-san broke the tip of her pen because she put too much force into it.

Of course, I can understand why she was angry.

Despite working hard, Kashiwagi-san was invited by someone like me who’s a freeloader.

“I’m sorry for asking you this when you’re this busy!”

I apologized desperately.

However, Kashiwagi-san put her hand on her chest, took a deep breath, and somehow managed to calm down.

As expected of Kashiwagi-san, her anger management was also perfect.

“Well, you see, I’ll go… I happen to be free tomorrow afternoon. And I don’t have any plans to begin with. So don’t think you’re interrupting my work.”

“A-are you sure you’re okay with that? You don’t have to worry about me.”

“I’m telling you I’m going. I’m free at night. If the worst comes to worst and I have to stay out… It’ll still be fine.”

“Don’t worry! No matter what happens, I’ll get you home safe and sound!”

“I see, you’re quite reliable.”

I tapped my chest, and Kashiwagi-san sarcastically let out a sigh.

Incidentally, Kashiwagi-san’s house was apparently right next to the hospital.

When the hospital received an emergency patient, she was the first to arrive from home and saved the day many times.

I could understand why Kashiwagi-san, who seems to be not good at socializing, was respected at this hospital.

Although she doesn’t show it in her attitude, Kashiwagi-san is actually too good a person.

“Sorry I stayed so long! Well, I’ll meet you tomorrow evening at the hospital entrance!”

“I understand. If there is an emergency, Renji will be there now. Don’t worry.”

“Haha, let’s buy some souvenirs for Renji-san too… See you tomorrow!”

I left Kashiwagi-san and closed the door, already nervous.

(Could this be… perhaps… what the… world calls a ‘date’!)

Humming to myself I returned to my room in a floating mood.

On the way, I was approached by an elderly patient.

“What’s the date today?”

I replied with a big smile.

“No! The date is tomorrow! And we’re going to the festival too~”

“…?”

The patient tilted his head.

Just then I realized my mistake.

“Oh, no, sir! It was a date (date)! Let’s see, today is September—”

—Afterwards, when I was eating dinner in my room with Lilia.

Lilia looked at me and raised her eyebrows.

“What’s with your face…”

“What? I don’t really have a weird face… uhehe. Must be your imagination… Fufufu.”

As far as I could tell, a creepy laugh came out of my mouth.

—Kachan!

Suddenly, Lilia dropped the knife in her right hand onto the plate.

“Oh, you splattered the sauce. Here, use my napkin.”

“…”

“Lilia?”

Lilia stared at her right hand.

And then, she exhaled a sigh.

“Hmm, your smile is so creepy I dropped it. Why are you smirking like that?”

Lilia is always grinning when she’s reading doujinshi.

If I were to say that, it seems like she will not read it in my room anymore, so I’ll keep it in my heart.

“Lilia, if you change your mind, you can always tell me. I’ll take you wherever you want to go!”

“I don’t have any other places I want to go. Don’t be too familiar with me, and forget about me when you get back to Japan. Gochisousama’

Lilia said that and started reading doujinshi in my bed after tidying up the dishes.

It’s adorable that she says the “Thanks for the food” I taught her properly every time.

◇◇◇

As I finished getting ready for bed, I dived into my own bed, where Lilia’s body heat still remained, and I thought.

Tomorrow is the first date in my life.

And with a beautiful girl that I would normally never have a chance in life with…

(I’ll do my best to make Kashiwagi-san enjoy as much as possible!)

After that I fell asleep in excitement.
