Chapter 157: Chatting While Running Part 2

“Umi is more expressive, and I like that. Your smile is so cute!”

“… I’ll give you a soft butt-kicking.”

“It doesn’t go away, does it…”

“Let’s enjoy the scenery! Look! We’re in the flower field zone now!”

After running for a while, the river disappeared from view, and instead, they found themselves on a path flanked by flower fields on both sides.

The colorful flowers soothed the people passing by.

“There are so many flowers in bloom – azaleas, clematis, anemones, lilacs… It’s really diverse.”

“Sakura-neechan, you know a lot about flowers.”

“A little bit. It’s a lady’s hobby.”

“A hobby, huh? So, is this about halfway?”

“Yeah, about. Are you getting tired?”

“No, I’m still okay. I just want to take a break after one loop.”

“Okay! Is there a vending machine nearby?”

“There’s a vending machine a little further away! Are you getting tired, Yukki?”

While talking with Sakura, Airi joined in.

“No, we were just talking about taking a break after one loop.”

“Oh, right!”

“But you knew a lot about this park.”

“Yeah! One of my part-time coworkers runs around here, and they told me it’s really beautiful, so I should come and check it out.”

“So that’s the connection. Airi, you really have a wide network of friends.”

“Hehehe, yeah!”

“Your part-time job is as a fashion model, right? Is it close by?”

“The office is nearby. I usually go to the site and do the shoot, so I don’t go there much.”

“Hmm… Wait, does that mean you’re in magazines?”

“Yeah?”

“Wow! That’s like being a celebrity!”

“I don’t think it’s that big of a deal, but I do get recognized in town sometimes.”

“Most people don’t get recognized.”

“Yukki does.”

“… I guess so? I’m a celebrity too, huh?”

“We’re friends!”

“We’re friends!”

“Why do you two sound like a comedy duo when you talk? Where’s the straight man?”

Sakura, who was left out of the conversation, looked at me and Airi with a puzzled expression.

“We’re friends.”

“We’re best friends!”

“Is it about friendship… Airi-chan, you’re not trying to go after Yuki, are you?”

“It’s not good to think of everything in terms of romance, Sakura-san.”

“We’re just having a normal conversation.”

“You don’t usually hear men having conversations like this, and is it possible for friendship to exist between men and women?”

“It’s possible.”

“Yeah, gender doesn’t really matter.”

“I guess that’s how it is…”

While having this conversation, they ran through the flower field zone, and the end came into view.

After passing through the flower field zone, they entered a zone where large trees had grown, and their extended leaves formed an arch, blocking out the sun’s rays and creating a cool atmosphere.

The sunlight that spilled through the gaps between the leaves illuminated the path.

“This is a cool zone.”

“Yeah, it seems a bit cooler here in the summer. There are benches here and there, so that’s probably why.”

Shigure ran alongside me.

“Yeah, this kind of place could be used for dates too. I think it would be nice to sit on one of these benches, spread out a bento, and eat.”

“That’s a good idea. But I think most people buy from that kitchen car over there and eat here. Look, those people over there are eating something they bought.”

Shigure pointed in a certain direction, and indeed, there was a kitchen car parked there.

I wonder what they’re selling?

Those kitchen car meals are often pretty tasty.

Two girls were chatting and eating something while sitting on the bench that Shigure pointed to.

I want to eat lunch… but I’m curious!

“Do you want to go over there later?”

“You just ate lunch, and now you want to eat again?”

“Kitchen cars are exciting, aren’t they?”

“No, they’re not.”

“In my mind, the stuff sold at kitchen cars seems really delicious.”

“Hmm? Well, okay. But if you eat too much, your expensive sushi dinner might not fit.”

“You’re subtly upgrading it to expensive sushi!”

“Come on, let’s keep running. We’ll go there when we take a break.”

“Wow, you’re good at changing the topic.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Please forgive me for changing the subject? It’s too expensive to treat everyone to expensive sushi.”

“You mean you’re going to treat everyone, not just Airi?”

“I’ll pay for everyone’s meal. I usually rely on you guys.”

“I thought you were only going to pay for Airi.”

“Of course not. So please eat as much as you want.”

“Okay. I’ll ask for bigger pieces of sushi.”

“You can’t specify the size of the sushi at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant, right?”

While having such a silly conversation, they continued running, and they returned to the starting point.

“Phew… I haven’t run this much in a long time.”

“I’ll go buy some drinks, Onii-chan.”

“Yeah, get me one too.”

“I think they sell drinks at that kitchen car.”

“Yeah, let’s all go over there.”

“Yukki, here’s a towel!”

“Thank you, Sakura-neechan.”

“You did a good job, Yukki, good boy!”

“How was it, Yukki?”

“It was amazing!”

“Hehehe! I told you so!”

It was a great run, not only because they hadn’t run this much in a long time, but also because they were able to enjoy the scenery.
