Act 2 - Summer Break
12-1 One-day Boyfriend
Hot.
That's the only word that comes to mind as I look up at the sky, which is as blue as ever.
I am sitting on a bench at the bus stop.
And sitting next to me is a beautiful, black-haired girl.
"Hmm? Is there something on my face?" (Rei)
"No...... there isn't." (Rintaro)
Rei is looking at me with a puzzled look on her face.
I look away from her and let out a breath.
Rei is now wearing a wig and black-colored contact lenses. Unlike the previous time when I was shown only the wig, today she had set her blonde hair so that it's completely concealed. Therefore, even if I see her up close like this, I won't notice that she is Otosaki Rei.
I didn't think I would end up falling head over heels for her because of her freshness, though.......
"Rintaro, the bus is here." (Rei)
"Hmm? yeah......." (Rintaro)
We board the bus that stopped in front of us and sit down on empty seats next to each other.
The reason why we took the bus is that we are going to a shopping mall located a short distance away from the station.
If we just need to buy clothes or swimsuits, we can do so in front of the station, but it is difficult to complete all of them in a single store. In that case, we would have to go to several stores, but walking around in this heat would be suicide.
After some discussion, we decided that a shopping mall with all kinds of stores would be the best place to go.
"It's a holiday, so there's going to be a lot of people around. Try not to get too much attention." (Rintaro)
"I know. But I think I'll be okay today unless something really bad happens." (Rei)
"Well, I guess......." (Rintaro)
Indeed, if anyone could recognize her today as Otosaki Rei at a quick glance, it would be only Mia and Kanon, who are also fellow MilleSta members.
This way we won't have to walk around freaking out about the surroundings――――
The bus stops in front of the mall and we follow the flow of others down the sidewalk in the parking lot.
It is the largest commercial mall in the area, and since it is early in the summer vacation season, many students and families with children visit here. The parking lot is almost full, and it is impressive to see cars wandering around waiting for a space to open up.
"Where do you want to start? I don't mind if you shop first." (Rintaro)
"Then I want to go to the first-floor clothing store." (Rei)
"Okay." (Rintaro)
I let Rei lead the way for now and follow behind her.
I'm not that particular about clothes, so I always buy the cheapest and least flashy clothes I can find.
I've always been a frugal person, so I don't really want to try on a branded one.
Rei, on the other hand, must be wearing something expensive. The mall should also have some brand name stores――――
"Eh, isn't this Uni*lo?" (Rintaro)
"Yes, but is there something wrong with that?" (Rei)
"No, it's just a little unexpected......." (Rintaro)
The first store Rei chose is Uni*lo, a store that is a friend to the common people.
I was so familiar with this place that I honestly felt a bit disappointed.
"I buy underwear here. There are lots of cute and inexpensive things here." (Rei)
"......I feel somewhat relieved." (Rintaro)
We both enter the store and I watch Rei shop from behind.
Rei purchases a few pairs of underwear, as she had declared, and leaves the store.
"The next is, that way." (Rei)
"Yes, yes." (Rintaro)
I have often heard that shopping for girls is a long process, and she seems to be no exception to this rule.
She would go into one store at a time, take a quick look at the clothes and try on the ones she was interested in. If she didn't find anything she liked, she would leave without buying anything.
Whenever I heard about girls shopping, I often thought it was a hassle. However, to my surprise and amazement. I don't find it with Rei boring at all.
On the contrary, I even consider it a privilege to watch her change into various outfits.
"Rintaro, does this look good on me?" (Rei)
Rei comes out of the fitting room wearing a white one-piece dress.
The hem of the dress sways softly as she spins once in front of me.
I thought it fit her well, but that might be because Rei has her "current hairstyle". Thinking of the original her, I think――――
"Hmmm...... I think I liked the one before better." (Rintaro)
The outfit she showed me before was very casual.
She was wearing a black sleeveless top with a thin shoulder-revealing T-shirt and jeans fabric hot pants.
The fact that her bewitching legs were visible made her look attractive to my simple eyes.
By the way, I have a hot pants fetish.
――――not interested, huh.
"I see. Then I'll buy it." (Rei)
"Are you okay with that? Depending solely on my opinion." (Rintaro)
"I'm okay. The one that Rintaro said would look better on me is the best." (Rei)
I try my best to keep my heart, which is about to writhe in agony, calm.
She's always saying things that could make me misunderstand...... and that's really not good for my health.
Rei, who had bought the one I said I liked it better, stands beside me again.
"I bought it. Then let's go." (Rei)
"Wait, wait...... I'll hold it for you." (Rintaro)
"Eh?" (Rei)
I snatch some of Rei's belongings from her side.
Even though they are clothes, the more they are, the heavier they become.
Feeling a definite weight in my hands, I look forward.
"Cmon, let's go next." (Rintaro)
"......Yes." (Rei)
What's with that happy look on your face? Damn this sweetheart lass.
◇◆◇
In the end, Rei's shopping lasted more than an hour.
As expected, my arm is no longer enough to hold her belongings from the middle, and Rei has also one of her arms fully occupied.
However, she looks very satisfied.
That being said, while Rei is paying, I look at the price tags on the other clothes. Needless to say......, there are prices on them that someone like me would never be able to afford.
"My shopping is done. Next, it's Rintaro's turn." (Rei)
"Yea. I'm just going to buy one appropriate swimsuit......." (Rintaro)
This is summer, and several stores are having swimsuit sales.
It'll be fine if I can buy one of the cheapest ones I can find.
"Then, can I pick one out for you?" (Rei)
"Sure, but......no boomerang pants or anything like that." (Rintaro)
"Rest assured. I will have you show me in private. I won't let you wear it outside." (Rei)
"I ain't even gonna show it to you, okay?" (Rintaro)
I imagine myself wearing boomerang pants, and I start to feel nauseous.
Yeah, I'll absolutely never do it.
"Just pick the coolest one you can normally find....... the cheapest one possible." (Rintaro)
"Ummm......... I understand." (Rei)
"Why do you look so disappointed?" (Rintaro)
I don't understand this girl.
Well, if she says she'll help me choose one, I'll take her word for it.
We move to the swimsuit section and compare the men's swimsuits that are placed side by side.
――――Any of them is fine.
"Rintaro, how about this?" (Rei)
"Hmm?" (Rintaro)
Rei brings a swimsuit made of blue fabric.
The drawstring that ties around the waist is white, what a nice accent.
It's not flashy, and I like it.
"This one is good. I'm going to choose this one." (Rintaro)
"Mm. I'll go paying this then." (Rei)
"Hey hey, wait, wait a minute! Why are you the one who's paying for it?" (Rintaro)
"What? Because I picked it out......." (Rei)
"Then I'll have to pay for some of yours!? I'm the one who has to pay for my stuff, okay......." (Rintaro)
Rei is a little dissatisfied, but this is non-negotiable.
If I become a full-time househusband, my wife will be the one to pay for everything after all, but that is that, and this is this.
"Here, hand me over." (Rintaro)
I snatch the swimsuit from her and take it to the cash register.
The price isn't insanely cheap, but it isn't expensive either.
I quickly pay for it and return to Rei's place.
This time, I see her standing in front of a women's swimsuit.
"...... What are you doing?" (Rintaro)
"I'm looking for a swimsuit for me." (Rei)
"Do you even need it? You know the crew will have it for you at the next shoot, right?" (Rintaro)
"I'm going to take a bath with Rintaro and show it to him." (Rei)
Hmm? What is this lass talking about?
