Chapter 59: Epilogue to the Year
TL: lime
ED: Spynine01
The film studies club movie preview was over and we were headed back home.
A few hours had passed since the graduation ceremony ended, and the atmosphere in the school building was very lonely.
Most of the students had left the school, and Shiori was mostly silent until we got home.
No, Shiori was always a quiet and cool-like girl, but today, she’s quiet and cool――or rather, it’s like she’s dazed and not talking――dumbfounded would be a more accurate description of her.
“Sigh…”
I sat on the living room couch and let out a breath.
As I exhale, thinking about how quickly my first year of high school went by, Shiori comes to sit down next to me.
Normally, she would put on headphones and dive into her own world of reading something, but today she was staring blankly at the TV, which wasn’t even on.
“Kojiro…”
“Hmm?”
I thought she finally opened her mouth, but she just looked at me blankly.
“What is it?”
“She called me by my name…”
“Name?――Ah…”
I guess what she meant was that she and Shijo had called each other by their names earlier.
She was quite happy about that.
“I’ve been calling her by her last name until now. She occupies your seat every morning and talks with me.”
Shiori sits on the sofa with her legs up. She looked quite happy as she looked at me with her cheek on her kneecap.
“――I’m glad I’m engaged to you.”
“Nah…”
Suddenly embarrassed by her words, I scratch my cheeks and make a sarcastic remark in return.
“You made a friend so you should have some cash ready in standby.”
Shiori shook her head in a full fury at my words.
“That’s not all. It’s not the only thing that made me happy.”
Shiori looked up to the heavens and said as if remembering something from the past.
“I was able to celebrate my birthday for the first time. I was able to spend Christmas for the first time. I went to Hatsumode for the first time. This is the first time I gave Valentine’s Day chocolates. For the first time, I received a gift in return for White Day.”
Then she looked at me with a smile.
“Kojiro was the one who made it all happen.”
Her smile was so cute that my right hand immediately ended up going to the top of Shiori’s head and began petting her.
“Fufu―― I think I like it when Kojiro strokes my head.”
“That’s quite an honor to receive.”
After stroking Shiori’s head for a while, “Hey?” she asks.
“Hmm?”
“Our 2nd year is full of different events, right?”
“Right.”
As I was thinking about what the events of second year are when she said that, she pointed out, “Your hand, it’s stopped,” and I answered while petting her.
“The sports and cultural festivals are held for all grades――and the biggest event for the second year is the school trip, right?”
“School trip…”
Shiori mumbles, thinks something over, and then smiles at me, calling my name again, “Kojiro.”
“I hope we are in the same class in the second year.”
To Shiori, I answered honestly,
“Yes, I hope so too.”
A/N:
Thank you all for reading this.
I would like to take this opportunity to say thank you for the many bookmarks and ratings so far, and for the many comments and first reviews.
Thank you!
Now, in this work, the 1st year is over and the 2nd year of their high school lives will begin in the next chapters.
It is no exaggeration to say that the second year of high school is the main part of high school life, isn’t it?
We hope you will continue to watch over Kojiro and Shiori as they enter the second year of such a flowery school year.
And how about the love triangle between Touma, Sumire, and Minami-sensei…
Dear readers, I hope you will continue to follow us for a long time to come!
EDN: With that, the 1st year to the series is now over! The second year is still left to be covered so stay tuned for that. Looks like there’s gonna be quite some drama next time. In case you missed the notes in the previous chapters, the TL’s PC has become very very slow which makes it hard for him to translate much, which is why these chapters took nearly a whole month. He’s accepting donations on his ko-fi to be able to buy a new PC for his needs. Click here for the ko-fi link. This is not necessary and just an extra thing you can do to support him. Thank you for all the support, and see you in the next year!
