- Vol 3 Chapter 8: Let's go stretch our legs! (Part 1)
Just because I became a sophomore in high school it didn’t mean that anything special had happened. But I had to be worthy of being next to Kaede-san, I would have to use my own capabilities to make her happy. For that, unlike last year, I’ve been focusing on my studies right from the beginning. Although balancing club activities was tough, I would do it myself to the best I could.
“Time flies by so fast, doesn’t it? I can’t believe I am in the second grade, and it’s almost summer vacation.” Kaede-san said with a somewhat happy expression as she spread strawberry jam on the freshly baked bread.
It had been less than a month since the school uniforms changed to summer uniforms. The fact that you didn’t have to wear ribbons anymore along with the second button of the blouse being open, made one see the other’s décolleté line and it was not good for my mental health.
“The cherry blossoms were in bloom just a few days ago. The final exam has ended, and summer vacation will soon begin.”
The final exam was the most difficult part of the semester. If one could get through the final examinations without any problems, they would have a month-and-a-half-long vacation ahead of them.
Students may play, engage in club activities, or study with an eye toward the future. It was truly a privileged period only students were allowed to enjoy. By the way, I would be doing club activities and working part-time as I did during spring break. It was the only time I could save money.
“Hmm… I’m fine with a part-time job, but I want to fully enjoy summer with Yuya-kun.” Dejectedly, Kaede-san dropped her shoulders.
I also wanted to enjoy summer together in the mountains, but it won’t start without something that precedes it.
“Don’t strain your shoulders, Yuya-kun. Look, couples share their wallets, right? So don’t worry!”
“I want to say that we’re not married yet, also I don’t want to be carried by Kaede-san.”
“That’s what makes Yuya-kun wonderful, but the beach, the pool, the summer festival, and the fireworks display! I want to do everything I can! So please don’t whine.”
I couldn’t just nod in understanding like this. Or rather, it seemed that the exam had disappeared from Kaede-san’s head. But even so, I am afraid that I would definitely be number one in my grade on this test. Was it a summer festival? Last year we went with Nikaido and others.
“I’m the one who can’t get my head around it. I think Yuuya-kun is really working hard. Didn’t you get fifth place in your grade during May’s midterm exam?”
In the final exam of the first year, I couldn’t achieve my goal of being in the top 5 in my grade, but I was able to get revenge in the first exam of this year.
“I was attracted to Yuya-kun, who never gives up, never gets complacent, and keeps trying. Even if you don’t get results right away, Yuya-kun will be fine.”
“Kaede-san… Thank you.”
“Fufufu. Besides, I promised to give you a reward if you get 5th or higher in your grade on this exam, so I really want you to achieve it.”
Kaede-san smiled as she said that and she seemed like a goddess of compassion, but I knew that deep inside her eyes was a bewitching little devil.
“I can understand what Yuya-kun is thinking in his head. Honestly, you want to see me in a school swimsuit again, right?”
“That’s not right!? What have you been saying since morning!?”
“Is that so? It’s written on your face, isn’t it? ~Kaede-san’s precious school swimsuit, I wish I had taken a picture of it.”
I was such a fool. I’m supposed to possess a serious and sincere face, right? But certainly, just a little bit, I thought it would have been better if I had taken a photo of Kaede-san in her school swimsuit. I wanted to make it the standby screen of my smartphone for summer vacation only.
“Yeah…Yuya-kun, you’ve been doing well since this morning. If you’re going to go that far, I’ll go change my clothes now, shall I? Oh, is it possible to wear a school swimsuit under the school uniform? It’s going to be hot today, so I think it will be comfortable!”
“Yeah, that’s indeed a no-no, Kaede-san. I thought for a moment that it might be okay, but absolutely not.”
“Why not? Isn’t it fine, as long as you’re wearing a swimsuit underneath, there should be no problem unless I get soaked in the rain?”
There was nothing but problems, Kaede-san. Rather, why were you making a blank face?
“Kaede-san, even though I look like this, I have a strong desire to possess you. That’s why I don’t want other men to see Kaede-san wearing a school swimsuit. Because that is a reward only for me.”
How small of a person I was! But wasn’t it perfectly natural to want to monopolize the sight that the person you love shows only to you? A wedding dress would be a perfect example.
“What’s really going on today? Are you planning our wedding in your head, Yuya-kun? If so, would you like to go find a wedding venue during the summer vacation? Where would you like to spend your honeymoon?”
Kaede-san asked while leaning forward. She should be careful, she would get jam on her uniform. Also, we’re not looking for a wedding venue yet. I wanted to go on a normal trip with Kaede-san before the honeymoon. Come to think of it, we’re also going on a school trip this year.
“Of course, we will have a wedding ceremony, but let’s prepare the expenses ourselves. Kaede-san’s parents are likely to say they will help us, but let’s not be dependent on them as much as possible. I know it’s a lot of work, but I think it will be the best ceremony.”
I felt embarrassed after saying this and sipped my coffee to cover it up. I didn’t put any sugar or milk in it, but the sweetness spread in my mouth.
“Oh my, Yuya-kun! I don’t think it’s good to say romantic things so plainly. But Yuya-kun is right. It’s our ceremony, so let’s do the best we can.”
Kaede, smiling as if she was illuminated by the morning sun shining through the window, was as beautiful as a goddess in a painting.
