Act 2 - Summer Break

11-4 


I enter the house, put the contents of the plastic bag in the refrigerator, and sit down on the couch.
After a few minutes of exchanging messages with Kakihara, I barely managed to understand what was going on.

According to him, the three of them had talked about going to the pool after I was gone. Nogi, who wasn't there, was invited to join them, and it seems that "Nikaido" suggested that they invite me as well, who had been with them earlier, anyway.

What an unnecessary thing she had done...... but I was the one who told her to call me if she needed anything. Although it was just a courtesy, I didn't feel comfortable rejecting it.
Besides——yep, it's a little hard to refuse when you get a message like this.

[I'm going to try to appeal more to Azusa at the pool. Rintaro is the only one who knows about this, so could you help me?] (Yuusuke)

Ye~ah, I don't want to. Frankly speaking, it's a hassle and I hate it so much.
However, I will be most grateful if Nikaido and Kakihara become getting intimate. Maybe I should try to cooperate with them here.

I feel like I should stay away from Nikaido anyway, but on the other hand, it's a chance to disillusion her.
I can't think of anything groundbreaking that would lower my value and raise Kakihara's, but it should be worth a try.

And well――――I'm ashamed to say that I've never had the experience of playing with others during summer break, so I have a slight feeling of longing for it.
At least once in my high school experience, I think it'll be nice to take the plunge.

[Got it, I'll go.] (Rintaro)

I type that message and send it.
Shortly after that, I receive a message from Kakihara, who was happy to have me participate and sent me detailed information about the time and place of the meeting.
Truly, Kakihara is a good guy. He only goes blank when it comes to Nikaido.......




◇◆◇




"I'm home." (Rei)
"Ah, welcome home." (Rintaro)

A few moments later, Rei comes into the living room.
She's looking somewhat tired and is brushing her hair, which is sticking to her face with sweat, out of her face in a look of exhaustion.

"You are pretty drenched, yes. I'm going to boil some somen noodles now, so you can go take a shower." (Rintaro)
"Mmm...... Thank you. I had a dance lesson today for a new song, so I'm pretty worn out." (Rei)

She turns from the living room to the hallway and heads for the bathroom.
I begin preparing the somen while I boil water in a pot.
There is not much to do, though. I cut up some scallions for condiments and grated some frozen yuzu. I also add a little sesame oil to the noodle soup base to give it a different flavor, which I prepared myself. There is nothing special about the somen itself, but I personally like being able to customize the sauce in this way.

(......Ah, did she leave the towel?)

I think of that when the somen is finished boiling.
I don't think there was a spare bath towel in the bathroom.
I finish putting the somen on a big plate and go to the bathroom with a clean bath towel.
I can still hear the sound of the shower. So I have avoided such a lucky situation of bumping into Rei, who had just finished taking a shower here.

However, there are miscalculations in everything――――.

"Ugh......." (Rintaro)

Such words leaked out unintentionally.
White fabric can be seen through the gaps in Rei's clothes, which have been messily removed and scattered.
Those are...... probably underwear.
I don't mean to be so blunt, but I have seen her underwear before. I'm in charge of the laundry in place of Rei, who is very busy. Obviously, I have seen them.
However, in those cases, I had her put them in a net or something similar that would make it difficult to see the contents before washing them, so I didn't see them clearly.

(Da......! Damn!)

I shake my head to cool my hot cheeks.
Forget 'em, forget 'em all.
I put the bath towel near her clothes, telling myself that over and over again. Then I gently shifted her clothes to hide her underwear.
With this, she won't know I saw her underwear――――I hope.

"......Really ridiculous." (Rintaro)

If I think about it calmly, there is a good chance that Rei won't mind at all. If I was the only one who panicked, that was a little unfair.

Recently, I've probably been acting somewhat strange.

However, I have spent my time trying not to be aware of it. I feel that if I become aware of it, something would change――――.





"For letting me take the bath first. Thank you." (Rei)
"Yea. Dinner's ready, so have a seat." (Rintaro)
"Mmm, okay." (Rei)

I urge Rei to sit down after she got out of the bath and put a plate of somen noodles and a bowl of noodle soup on the table.
She and I both put our hands together and then begin to dig in.

"Mmm, delicious." (Rei)
"Glad to hear. I'm cutting corners a little, though......." (Rintaro)
"It's not a problem. There are a lot of creative things on the table, so this is fun." (Rei)

Rei said that and put some green onions in the sauce. Then she adds three drops of red chili oil and sips the somen again.

"Is it okay if we change the dipping soup?" (Rei)
"No problem. If we want to reset it, I can go in and make some more." (Rintaro)
"Okay." (Rei)

Dripping red chili oil or sesame oil on the soup is certainly tasty, but the problem is that if you want to change the taste, you can't change it back. If that's the case, just prepare it "plain". I feel it's a bit of a waste, but I have no choice, since there will be no other way, even from a hygienic standpoint.

"Rintaro, I'm off tomorrow, and I want to go shopping. Will you go with me?" (Rei)
"Wait, wait, ...... I don't know how many times we've had this conversation, but wouldn't it be bad for us to walk out together?" (Rintaro)
"It'll be fine. I've got a wig to make it easier for us to walk out." (Rei)

Saying that, Rei pulls out a clump of hair from her bag.
It is a wig that imitates flowing black hair. It is the exact opposite of Rei's blonde hair.

"If I put this on, people won't be able to tell it's me. Hair makes a big impression after all." (Rei)
"Well, indeed."

She certainly gives a completely different impression when she puts on the wig. Her natural hair is not put together, so her blonde hair sticks out in places, but once that is taken care of, it will be safe to say that she is a different person.

"......I get it. I'll go out with you then." (Rintaro)
"Thank you. I want to buy some more clothes for the summer." (Rei)
"Ah, in that case, can I go shopping while you're at it?" (Rintaro)
"I don't mind. What are you going to buy?" (Rei)
"Men's swimsuits." (Rintaro)
"Eh......?" (Rei)

I thought it over, but I only have a school swimsuit.
At worst, I can take it with me, but that would be too tacky. At this point, I should probably bring one swimsuit, even if I have to spend my savings.

"I have an appointment to go to the pool in the near future. So I thought I'd buy one......eh, what's wrong?" (Rintaro)

Rei, who had been relatively talkative until then, suddenly fell silent.
I'm worried and call out to her, and she finally opens her mouth.

"――――with whom?" (Rei)
"Pardon?" (Rintaro)
"With whom?" (Rei)

Eh, Rei-san, are you angry about something?

I flinch at her words, which are more forceful than ever.
And I, for some reason, explain the situation to her in polite words.

Of course, I didn't tell her about Kakihara's situation.
