Episode 34: Trick or Treat
The trick-or-treating started, and they finally made their comments.
“Is that girl Christina! She’s cute!”
“Oh my God! A big squirrel! It’s a… squirrel!”
“Hahaha! What’s with that Kagami? You’re gross!”
We were so conspicuous that we didn’t need to move to get more people to come.
After all, Cheena is the most popular.
A long line formed in front of her, and the snacks we had prepared seemed to be running out in no time.
What Cheena brought was an assortment of sweets packaged in small portions.
Incidentally, there were many people who were too precious to reach Cheena and fell down.
And Miyamoto was the most popular of all.
How many are there? On the other hand, mainly girls gathered together.
Miyamo-san is very happy to be called a “big” squirrel. She looks so tiny as she proudly hands out sweets.
Well, if it’s fun, it’s okay.
And as for me, I was the source of laughter, mainly from the boys.
They would call me “Paper Rabbit Lope”, “Desurabbits”, or whatever they wanted to call me, and they would burst into laughter.
(T/N: Paper Rabbit Lope is a short Japanese comedy-animation film, and the name of its protagonist; Desurabbits is a Japanese pop-group known for being the early pioneers of the death metal/J-pop cross-over music style known as ‘Japanese death pop’; and Tippy is a character from the anime series ‘Gochuumon wa Usagi Desu ka??’, who is a female angora rabbit and likes to rest on people’s head.)
But you guys, stop saying Super Bunny Man. At least make it Tippy.
But it’s refreshing to be the center of laughter like this, and honestly, it’s not bad.
It would have been a lot more fun if about a third of it wasn’t the condescending laughter of the Shiori fan club.
“Hahahahaha! That’s good Iori. You’re the brightest ever.”
“Stop it, Soji. Don’t record it with a good camera.”
Of course, it was Soji who tried to preserve my dark history with a devilish smile.
That handheld camera is definitely for recording dark histories.
Soji, by the way, was wearing clothes covered in red gore and carrying a bloody iron pipe in one hand.
Wow, he looks good.
Akimoto and the others were dressed in zombie-like costumes, so they looked like civilians fighting against them.
I saw that Ishida and Sasaki were also dressed like they had passed through the same death line as Soji.
They should have reversed the sexes… poor guys.
In addition to our group, there was another equally large crowd of people in the square.
The other center of the crowd, which was almost bisected by the entire school year, was probably Shiori.(E/N: That short haired child?)
According to what I heard, she was wearing a pretty high quality maid outfit.
Well, I’m grateful for the fact that she’s attracting her followers.
Thanks to her, it’s easy to spend time here.
After we had been in the center of attention for a while, the teacher gave us instructions over the loudspeaker again.
The first half of the group activity was over, and from now on we were allowed to move independently only within the square.
Since the theme of the event was unified, we were allowed to move in groups to some extent, but they also wanted us to be able to take commemorative photos with people we were close to.
Incidentally, I just noticed that some of the teachers were wearing costumes.
Our Tachibana-sensei was dressed as a monster? Alligator? Yes, I think it’s nice to have a mascot look.
By this time, the crowd had dispersed to a certain extent, and Cheena was finally released.
At the feet of the exhausted Cheena, there was a large bag containing a mountain of donated sweets.
“Yori! I’m so tired!”
As she carried the bag from one side to the other, Cheena came toward me.
It’s rare for her to sound like such a spoiled child, she must be very tired.
“Good work. Let’s get some rest.”
I took the bag and we sat down at the base of the tree to rest.
It’s been a while since I’ve been surrounded by people, so I’m a little tired too.
I took a breather and started chatting with the students, who were still excited.
“It was fun today.”
“What are you talking about? The real fun is tomorrow’s skydiving.”
“Yori, you love skydiving too much.”
“Have you ever done it before? I thought indoor skydiving was famous in Russia.”
“Indoor only. That’s all I’ve ever done, so I’m looking forward to it.”
“Aren’t you afraid?”
“Oh, yes! Trick or treat!”
“Suddenly?”
In the middle of a random exchange, Cheena suddenly started trick-or-treating.
Oh, man, she’s so carefree. Only a cat can do that.
“Totally… Here.”
I then handed her the sweets that I had left until last.
It was something I had prepared especially for Cheena.
“This… is Zephyr.”
Cheena stared at it as she put a little bit of it on both of her hands.
Yes, what I prepared for Cheena was a popular Russian candy.
It is a sweet pastry similar to marshmallows.
“I went to an antenna store yesterday,” she said. “I bought a few other things, so I’m going to… at home…”
“Yes, it’s sweet.”
While I was explaining, Cheena had already opened the bag and was chewing on it.
I guess girls like sweets after all, she looks very happy.
I’m glad she’s happy.
“I’ve prepared a special gift for you too.”
“Oh, thank you.”
What was handed to me was a cookie.
It was put in a translucent, patterned sachet and held together with a wire ribbon, clearly different from the ready-made products that were being handed out to everyone.
“Could this be… handmade?”
“Yes. I made it at Yuki’s house.”
“When did you make it?”
“Yesterday. Yori wasn’t around, so maybe you didn’t notice.”
It’s true that yesterday’s trip to the antenna store was a bit of a long one, and on the way home I found a delicious-looking barbecue restaurant, so I took a rare detour.
By the time we got home, Cheena had fallen asleep on my bed again, so I didn’t notice it at all.
So we both had a surprise in mind.
“Give me your thoughts quickly.”
“You can cook, so it must be good.”
While saying this, I opened the bag and picked it up.
There were two cookies inside, one in the shape of a cat and the other in the shape of a rabbit.
I picked up the cat one and ate it in one bite.
(T/N: Well, if you think of it, Iori was wearing a bunny costume and Cheena was wearing a cat costume. Then he ate the cat one… doesn’t that mean he’s eating Cheena? Lol)
“Yes, it’s sweet.”
“Don’t imitate me!”
“Sorry, sorry. It’s delicious. Thanks.”
If I made fun of her a little, she will hit me on my shoulder.
But it really is delicious. I’m sure Cheena is very handy.
“This is the end of the candy exchange, everyone. Please go home, brush your teeth, and go to bed early!”
After taking another cookie, we were chatting for a while, when the announcement of the end of the event sounded.
We will move to our own cottages, and those who need it will take another bath and go to bed.
“Then Cheena, go back with Miyamoto and the others. Don’t be alone.”
“I know.”
Cheena replied, and opened her arms to me.
I’m sure it’s a ‘see you tomorrow’ cheek kiss.
I’ve gotten used to it, and I don’t have to feel people’s eyes on me.
I pulled Cheena’s shoulders first and made kissing sounds as I rubbed my right cheek against hers.
No more mistakes, okay? Boom!
Then, this time, Cheena pulls herself closer to me, and I kiss her cheek to cheek.
Chu!
But this time, there was a different kind of pinpoint softness on my cheek.
What, wait, was that a… lip?
When I pulled my face away and looked at Cheena, she was blushing so much I could tell even in the dark.
Definitely. It wasn’t a cheek kiss, but a kiss on the cheek.
‘Wait, what? Cheena, huh?”
“Fufu… Naughty! I’ll see you tomorrow!”
With that said, Cheena showed me her tongue in a mischievous manner (simply put, bleh), and rushed to join Miyamoto and the others.
I was left behind, stroking my cheek and staring at her in amazement.
I’m pretty sure you use your lips to kiss… family or a special someone.
(T/N: I definitely have fun translating this chapter. Who told Cheena to give Iori a kiss on the cheek, and not a cheek kiss? I never knew Cheena is wild lol)
