When I Brought The Lost Little Girl To Her House, The One Who Came Out Of The Front Door Was The Most Beautiful Girl In The Grade. - Chapter 89
When we arrived at school, I could feel various people’s eyes on us. Part of it was because we came to school together, but I also felt that Ayano had been getting cuter recently.
“Hey! Hey! Yuusei-kun, can you see it?”
Ayano was bouncing up and down while trying to look at the class assignment list. Ayano isn’t particularly short; in fact, she’s relatively tall.
But her eagerness to find out quickly made me chuckle.
“You’re making fun of me, aren’t you?”
“I’m not, really.”
“Heh, am I being weird? I know I can just wait to find out, but… I just can’t wait.”
“I’ve been trying to act calm, but to be honest, I’m nervous too, you know?”
“Really?”
With her beautiful, large eyes, Ayano tilted her head as she looked at me.
“Yeah, that’s why I haven’t been talking much.”
“Wow, Yuusei-kun, I didn’t know you were curious too.”
“That’s because I’m not weird.”
“Yeah! So, um, can you see it?”
“No, I can’t.”
Ayano let out a hearty laugh.
“I guess we’ll have to wait, huh?”
“I really hate waiting.”
“Come on, don’t say that.”
Saying that, Ayano rested her head on my shoulder.
I was surprised by the sudden action. This was a school, after all.
“Ayano, we’re at school, you know?”
“I’m a little tired…”
“Jumping around like that doesn’t seem to be the issue.”
“Just a little more…”
With her pouty expression, Ayano continued to act cute. I had to resist the urge to pat her head.
Voices from our surroundings whispered, “They’re so lovey-dovey.” There were even some rather inappropriate comments, but when Ayano just smiled, those voices faded away.
“Have you recharged?”
“Just a bit.”
“Oh, it’s a different class…”
When I teased her like that, Ayano, who had her eyes closed, opened them wide.
“No way!?”
“Yeah, just kidding.”
I laughed heartily, and Ayano puffed up her cheeks. It was our usual routine, but today, her reaction seemed a bit different. Trembling, she grabbed onto my arm.
“Th-this isn’t the time for that today…”
“I was just making a little joke.”
“No, it’s not okay. Got it? Yuusei-kun is a good boy, right?”
Ayano exerted a certain pressure with her statement. It wasn’t so much about defiance; it simply didn’t even cross my mind to go against it.
I nodded slightly and replied, “Yes.”
Finally, the crowd thinned out, and we reached a position where we could see clearly.
Kuroda… there it is, Class 3-2… Shirawaka… Class 3-2.
“We got it! Class 3-2!”
We both shouted together in a loud voice. Ayano giggled softly, and everyone present was mesmerized.
Well, that’s understandable, even I’m not used to this.
“Let’s go! To our classroom!”
“Hey, hey! Be careful; you might trip.”
“It’s okay today.”
Saying that, Ayano pulled my arm as we headed to the classroom.
Even on the way there, Ayano had a continuous smile on her face. I really wanted to keep this smile all to myself.
Being in the same class was the happiest thing that had happened to me in a while.
“Thank you, Daikichi.”
“Huh? Did you say something?”
She let out an adorable, melting laugh, completely elated. It was a rare side of Ayano that I rarely saw.
