Soon after, I opened the front door, sat Kanon on the couch, and placed a cup of freshly brewed coffee in front of her.
"Thanks....... You're really thoughtful, really you are. It's just perfectly fit my taste." (Kanon)
"I'm longing to be a full-time househusband. If I can't do this much, how can I even declare it?" (Rintaro)
"No, normally people won't go this far, you know......?" (Kanon)
I sat down next to her, sipping on the coffee I had made for myself.
Looking at her again, I see that she was dressed quite defenselessly.......
She was wearing a pink t-shirt that was a bit large in size, and the hem of her shorts exposed her bare thighs. Her hair, that always tied up, now was down, making her look even more feminine than usual.
"Wha~t's wrong? Did you find me attractive when we were alone?" (Kanon)
"Well, yeah. Somehow, you're more calm than usual, almost like you're not Kanon." (Rintaro)
"...... I can also, be like this at times, okay." (Kanon)
Kanon sipped from her mug, trying to hide her embarrassment.
"It's about the next concert, I'm feeling a little pressured of it." (Kanon)
"Huh......?" (Rintaro)
"You're probably thinking, 'Why it has to be now', right? Yes, it is." (Kanon)
She didn't make eye contact with me.
It's not a joke, and that's probably why it's hard for her to talk face-to-face.
"I haven't told you this, but my family is pretty normal, despite being a real estate agent. Rei's family is rich, and Mia's mother is actually a famous actress. I was born and raised in a completely different environment compared to them." (Kanon)
"I didn't know that......." (Rintaro)
"They both have such high specs that it makes no sense. And unfortunately, sometimes I can't keep up with them." (Kanon)
She said it as if it was nothing, but there was a hint of frustration in every word.
I'm not in the same position, but even I could understand how Kanon felt. Those two――――especially Rei who was close to me and I could clearly sense, she was definitely a monster.
From the mental capacity to the physical construction, it's as if she's not a normal human being.
"If that's the case, you're pretty high-spec from my point of view, too." (Rintaro)
"It's of course, I'm a perfect beauty no matter how." (Kanon)
"Choose either you're confident or you're not......." (Rintaro)
"I am, but am not. I don't wanna detract them, so I try really hard to keep up with them. But sometimes...... I get exhausted." (Kanon) (PTW/N: I must suppress the urge of using "well yes but actually no".)
"...... I see." (Rintaro)
Now I finally understood why she came confiding to me.
There's no way she could tell them about this.
I'm sure she had been keeping it all to herself, not telling anyone until now.
"Hey, can I lean on you?" (Kanon)
"H*lla no." (Rintaro)
"That's the part where a gentleman says, "Feel free to do", you know!?" (Kanon)
"The only person I'm letting to lean on is my future wife. You don't wanna be my wife, do you?" (Rintaro)
"I'll consider it, I think?......., I'd say, but I don't wanna go out with a guy who's more feminine than me." (Kanon)
She giggled, just as she had when we were talking on the balcony.
"Strangely, I feel like at home when around you. It's like I can forget that I'm an idol." (Kanon)
"Aren't you supposed to keep remembering it?" (Rintaro)
"It's fine. Sometimes.――――Hey, so can I borrow your shoulder...... for five minutes?" (Kanon)
"......It's expensive, okay." (Rintaro)
I leaned my back against the couch in silence.
Then, Kanon put her head on my shoulder.
Her weight is as light as it was when I carried her from the couch to the bed at the housewarming party.
"Your shoulder's pretty stiff......." (Kanon)
"Sorry for it. I'll put a cushion then." (Rintaro)
"What's the point of borrowing your shoulder then? This is fine. It's the right firmness." (Kanon)
In this room, quiet time was flowing.
There were no conversations. This was not what Kanon was looking for.
As a full-time househusband, I should take what my partner wants and give it to her.
The end of this moment came sooner than I expected.
"――――Five minutes is surprisingly short, yes." (Kanon)
Kanon's head moved away.
I turned my slightly stiffened shoulders and looked at her face.
"You're looking somewhat better than before." (Rintaro)
"Do I? Well, I certainly feel better now." (Kanon)
Kanon stood up from the couch, stretching her body.
The peculiar gloom I had felt when she came to my room had disappeared and there she was, her usual self.
"Hey, can I borrow your shoulder like this again?" (Kanon)
"Next time, I'll charge you." (Rintaro)
"Why you're being stingy?" (Kanon)
"Just kidding. I'll give you five minutes any time. That's as far as I can go." (Rintaro)
"I don't even know what your definition of "as far as you can go" is. ...... Well, I'll come back when I feel exhausted. So, that....... Thanks for today." (Kanon)
After saying that, Kanon headed for the door.
I was somehow calling out to her.
"Kanon...... Do your best." (Rinatro)
"...... You're an awkward guy as well, aren't you. You don't have to tell me, I'll push myself to the limit." (Kanon)
She waved her hand and left the room.
After listening to her worries, my worries about the tripartite meeting seemed insignificant.
I drank the rest of my coffee and twirled the empty mug between my fingers.
"Aah~, this is ridiculous. It's not like I'm going to die, right." (Rintaro)
Even if the tripartite meeting turned into a bipartite meeting, it wouldn't necessarily be a problem for the rest of my life.
Let's just take it easy. That's enough of life.
The next thing I knew, it was around midnight.
I grabbed her mug and took it to the sink.
I guess I should go to bed now.
◇◆◇
Later that day, after school.
The day of the meeting finally arrived.
I sat down on a chair in the hallway and waited for the previous meeting to end. Since my parents were not around, I had a more flexible schedule than the rest of my classmates, so I was placed relatively later in the order.
"Eh, was it Shidou before me, huh?"
As I waited for a while, fiddling with my phone, a voice suddenly called out to me.
I looked up and saw the familiar handsome face standing there as usual.
"Ah, Kakihara-kun......." (Rintaro)
"You can call me Yuusuke. We've been classmates for almost three months now, right." (Yuusuke)
He said and sat down on the chair next to me.
I don't remember getting to know him well enough to call him by his given name, but I guess it wouldn't be very nice to turn him down.
I put on a smile and nodded my head.
"You can call me Rintaro then." (Rintaro)
"Really? Then I'll do without reservation...... Do Rintaro's parents can't make it either?" (Yuusuke)
"Ah, yes...... Yuusuke-kun also has the meeting at this time, which means――――" (Rintaro)
"Yeah. Both of my parents are working overseas, my mom is a designer and my dad runs a venture company. So it's not easy for them to come back to Japan." (Yuusuke)
――――That's one h*ll of a high-spec family.
"So, perhaps, are you living alone, Yuusuke-kun?" (Rintaro)
"Hmm? Yes, I am. I've been living alone since I entered high school. My mother was still in Japan when I was in junior high school, though." (Yuusuke)
"I see. Isn't it hard?" (Rintaro)
You're the only one who said that to me, Rintaro. Everyone says they envy me living alone. It's not all good, though." (Yuusuke)
I've been living alone, so I know what it's like.
The Me in my head nodded in agreement while crossing his arms.
"H-hey...... Rintaro." (Yuusuke)
Suddenly, Kakihara began to fidget and let his gaze wander.
That's the kind of atmosphere where you want to say something but...... are too embarrassed to open your mouth.
"What's wrong......?" (Rintaro)
"Ah, that...... I wanted to ask a consultation to you about something." (Yuusuke)
"A consultation?" (Rintaro)
"It's about...... a matter of love." (Yuusuke)
Why me? I was about to ask, but I closed my mouth.
"Love? I don't know if I can be a good consultant, though." (Rintaro)
"You already has a girlfriend, don't you, Rintaro? I beg you, please, just for this waiting time." (Yuusuke)
"Y-yea~h...... Right. That's certainly right." (Rintaro)
I was about to start talking to him on the assumption that I didn't have a girlfriend.
I felt guilty for deceiving him, so I decided to just listen to what he was going to say. It's a pain in the a*s, though.
"I don't know if I can be of any help, but at least I can lend you an ear." (Rintaro)
"I-I see......! Y-you know...... I actually have feelings...... for Azusa!" (Yuusuke)
――――Yep, I knew.
