A detour that was filled with mysterious detours.

“4:30 pm.”
Square in front of the station.
“Hey there, Yuu-nii.”
“Hello, Yuu-san.”
“Yo~”
A dark green blazer with a checkered skirt. Black loafers on the feet. Two people in high school uniforms had come to visit together.
“Did we make you wait?”
“Nope, even I had just arrived moments ago.”
“Is that so.”
The exchange was almost like meeting up for a date. I never thought there would come a moment in my life when I would be speaking like this. Moreover, the other party are two high school girls, more than ten years younger than me…
Last Saturday, Mahiru suggested that the three of us should go out with that mysterious, beautiful girl. All together.
I thought it would be an excellent opportunity to find out the name of that mysterious, beautiful girl, so I immediately gave out an OK as a reply. However, when I thought about it more carefully, was it really ethically OK for an old man like me to hang out with two high school girls?”
Putting aside Mahiru, the other one is a beautiful girl whose name I don’t even know…
Won’t people around me think of it as the so-called compensated dating that has been going on recently?
I’m pretty sensitive to being labeled for such sorts of things
[TL: You have already been marked from childhood… I think it’s too late…].
“Here~”
While saying that, Mahiru wrapped her arm around mine. Two violent softness gets squeezed as they hit my upper arm.
“Hey! The heck! What are you—-”
“What do you mean? Didn’t we used to hold hands back in the past as well?”
“That’s a story of the past.”
“Isn’t it OK since this is a date?”
“It’s not….”
Mahiru’s height was almost the same as mine. Rather, since she was just a few centimeters taller than me. Thus, when she puts her body close to me, her face comes immediately at breathing distance from mine.
Ah, her eyelashes. They are pretty long, huh. And that cherry-colored lips look so plump and bouncy —-
I’m an idiot!
It’s that Miharu I am talking about, you know?”
No matter how much of a beautiful girl she has grown into now, what will I do getting excited about someone who has been like a little sister to me since the point she was little in the past?
“Then, I’ll be occupying this hand.”
Saying that, this time, the very mysterious, beautiful girl gently grabbed my free hand. I could feel the warmth of her tiny palm being transmitted through my nerve-endings in my palm.
Why.
Why is this happening? What did I do?
Why is God developing such a romantic comedy for me at this age…?
Am I about to die tomorrow?
Or did you, at last, become apologetic and now try to give me a reward as a make-up for having me spend hard times working in a black company for 10 years?
It was literally like the proverb: Having flowers in both hands.
People who passed me — especially men — stared daggers at me.
“No, no, this is really bad after all. Get away, both of you.”
I forcibly shake away the arms of the two apart.
“Muu!”
“Che. Well, that’s fine. Then, where are we going next?”
“I haven’t thought of anything as such, but is there anywhere you want to go especially?”
“What is this, Yuu-nii. Even though you have two high school girls to serve you, you are without a plan, huh?”
“Don’t use the word ‘serve you.”
“Um, I maybe want to go to a karaoke.”
The mysterious beauty suggested.
“Karaoke? Then how about we go there? Is that alright? Yuu-nii~”
“Yeah.”
And so, like this, it was decided that we would be going to the karaoke.
*
Fufu~ that Mio she is definitely feeling the pressure to hurry, huh.
If you don’t get rid of that unwanted pride quickly, you’ll end up being left alone, you know?
Yuu-ni’s arm… It was rough and really warm…
I gently put my hand on my own chest.
My heart was pounding so much that I could even tell with my hands on my blazer, the top of my chest.

I came to a nearby karaoke bar. The receptionist’s sister gave me a really suspicious look, but I decided not to mind it anyhow.
“Umm, some free time for the three of us. A~h, can we get a student discount for just the two of us? Well then—”
“…!”
My eyes suddenly lit up.
This was my chance.
It might look like a sleazy act, but it can also be considered a force majeure that happened by complete chance.
Even if I do see at least one kanji character, I don’t think I would receive any of God’s wrath as such. Probably
Moreover, why am I even tasked to guess the full name of someone I have come across for the first time… If I don’t do something sleazy like this, it might be a difficult task to conclude in any way, you know.
Mahiru and that mysterious, beautiful girl take out their student ID cards. Besides them, I was casually shaking my body front-back.
Kuh, make that head a little more towards the other side, goddammit.
A~h DAMN, The position of that card is just about at the position where it was just laid hidden by the part of Mahiru’s chest.
Ummuuu.
A~h right wasn’t there a mirror right behind the reception counter. Can’t I see that card’s reflection over there?
As I was about to put that thought into action, I met eyes with that beautiful girl in the mirror.
“…Ah”
“You tried to cheat, didn’t you? You tried, didn’t you?”
A beautiful girl puts up her index finger to her cheeks and says.
“Yuu-nii, that’s really underhand.”
Guu. I was found out.
“Do Yuu-nii smoke cigarettes?”
“Nope.”
“OK, then we would like a non-smoking room, please.”
Selecting the drinks at the drink bar beforehand, we headed to our authorized room.
“Ah, ah. Alright, let’s sing!”
Like a high school girl, Mahiru had selected a romantic song that was popular among the young ones around the town, sung by one of the recent singers. Even though, in the past, she used to watch animes meant for boys with me. I guess, but after all, she’s definitely a girl.
Moreover, Miharu was singing with her hand gestures.
Aren’t you pretty good at it?
Her voice was crisp and clear. She even had a perfect sense of rhythm.
While listening to Miharu’s song, I came across a nostalgic song that was put up on the screen that I had heard countless times in the past.
『Butter-Fly』
Or, so I think.
I was thinking of singing this song later on.
There’s even research showing that boys in their twenties wouldn’t leave without singing this song at least once when they would come to karaoke together.
“Nn? Did you enter that, Miharu?”
“Nope.”
“Huh? Then…”
“It’s me.”
The mysterious, beautiful girl held the microphone.
“He~, don’t you know it well. This was supposed to be an anime song from when I was a kid. It’s over twenty years old, you know?”
“Fufu~, I used to listen to it often at my acquaintance’s house.”
It was supposed to be a song with male vocals, but the beautiful girl could sing it just about perfectly.
I applaud unintentionally.
“Ehehe~”
After that, the selection of songs by that mysterious, beautiful girl were all songs that I felt nostalgic for.
“Kasabuta”
[TL notes: Pigs and Umbrella]
“Kokoro-e”
[TL notes: Resound into your heart.]
“Catch You Catch Me”
“KawaitaSakebi.”
[Tl notes: A thirsty cry.]
“Melissa”
“Kaze to isshou ni.”
[Tl notes: Together with the wind.]
It naturally reminds me of my childhood days.
When I would get home from school, didn’t care to do my homework and went out to play games at my friend’s house…
*
How do you feel Yuu-nii?
It’s nostalgic, isn’t it?
Those rebroadcasting and DVDs that Yuu-nii borrowed about all the anime songs where we watched together don’t you remember?
Will you at last perhaps remember?”
I thought that if I were to attack with nothing but nostalgia like this, the memories of those days would strike him, and then…
『Come to think of it, I think I watched all of these with Mio and those three… To believe that a child of this age knows such an old song.』
『You finally noticed me, Yuu-nii.』
『I can’t even wrap my head around and believe you’ve grown into such a beautiful girl.』
“Kukuku”
I steal a glance at Yuu-nii.
“Uu, Gusu”
Wha!?
He’s whimpering!?
“Wa—why?”
“Those times…it was so much fun. I didn’t have anything to stress…every day was so much fun…I had a lot of friends… Gusu …”
O–Oh no…
Going further back from the era I wanted him to remember (ten years ago), he had just jumped to a generation even further back: his own childhood (about 20 years ago).
I mean, just how hard was it for you in Tokyo that you would start whimpering, reminiscing about your childhood?
“Here~, here~, Yuu-nii.”
Mahiru moves next to her and hugs Yuuni’s head in between her two jugs.
“Uu, Mahiru — don’t do that. It’s embarrassing.”
“Hehe~”
Chii.
I click my tongue in my mind.
That bastard boobies, she once again casually pushing her melons against Yuu-nii…
『The strategy to stimulate memory with the theme song of the anime we watched together』
A complete failure.
