Chapter 16 – As a True Lover
“Well, thank you for your help today, Soichi.”
“No, it’s no trouble at all.”
After I finished helping the student council, I had such a conversation with Yozora-senpai.
Yozora-senpai seems a little awkward. That’s probably because the incident hasn’t been resolved yet.
I’m prepared to wait until she talks to me. But she seems to feel guilty for keeping secrets from me, so maybe she can’t be her usual self.
“Shall we go home too?”
“Ah, no, wait a minute.”
“What is it?”
“…I need to talk to you.”
When I suggested we go home, Yozora-senpai stopped me.
Her face shows determination. Perhaps she’s going to tell us what happened.
I took a deep breath once and then sat down facing Yozora-senpai.
“…Let me conclude. My father and you have met. When you were very young.”
“As expected, that really happened.”
“Yes, and I’ve met you too. My father and your father were friends. That’s how we met.”
“So we’ve met too…”
The information given to me by Yozora-senpai was new to me.
But it’s not that surprising. I had considered that possibility.
“As a child, you and I played like sister and brother. Well, I don’t remember much of that time either. But I vaguely remember the fun we had.”
“I don’t remember any of it.”
“I suppose so. It’s just something I vaguely remember. I’m not surprised you don’t remember it, even though you’re just a year younger.”
I don’t remember meeting Yozora-senpai at all. My father never told me about it, and I didn’t know her at all.
However, that’s not the case with senpai. That must be something important.
“I’ve been student council president since the second semester of my freshman year. Well, when you’re the president, you get a certain amount of information about the whole school. That’s how I found out. I found out that a boy I used to play with had joined the school…”
“Did you know me since freshman year, Yozora-senpai?”
“Yeah, I knew. And I’d check in on you from time to time. I was curious about the boy who gave me those happy memories.”
Yozora-senpai was smiling. She must have really enjoyed her memories of me. I could sense that.
It’s a bit frustrating that I don’t remember it. If it was a happy memory, I would have wanted to remember it.
“While I was looking at you like that, I had certain feelings. In short, I fell in love with you.”
“…Eh?”
Yozora-senpai’s sudden words made me freeze. The fact that I hadn’t expected it at all made my head go blank.
But I can’t do that. I can’t say nothing to those words. I have to face her feelings.
“Senpai, that’s….a confession, isn’t it?”
“Yes, I guess you could call it a confession of love… Mm, so embarrassing.”
“Why me?”
“I didn’t really understand that either, but now that we’re in this kind of relationship, I understand it again. I think I liked your weirdly serious and straight-forward personality. Well, that kind of thing is just a feeling. I can’t put it into words well.”
“…I guess you’re right.”
Yozora-senpai has feelings for me. That’s a very happy fact.
But that makes me a little curious. I wonder what Yozora-senpai thought of my shout at that time.
“Why did you make that suggestion to my shout?”
“I thought I’d go out with you and make you fall in love with me. I thought that if you wanted a girlfriend in the abstract, you’d be open to a proposal like that.”
“…I guess that’s why I fell for the ruse.”
“You fell for it, didn’t you? I kind of figured that out.”
“Well… You saw right through me.”
The reason why Yozora-senpai looked at me as if she was clinging to me when she made her proposal was probably because it was a once-in-a-lifetime proposal for her. For her, that proposal was one that only she could make, and if I refused, it would be the end of everything.
“…Well, that’s the secret I’ve been keeping. So Soichi, what do you want to do?”
“What do I want to do?”
“It’s about whether you want to continue the relationship with me or not…”
Yozora-senpai’s voice gradually became quieter.
I closed the distance between me and her. I slowly opened my mouth to answer her question.
“Yozora-senpai, I like senpai too.”
“…Eh?”
Senpai widened her eyes at my words. I wonder if she didn’t expect this response. It’s obvious that she was surprised.
“In the course of our relationship, I was attracted to you. I always wanted to entertain you. I wanted to take care of you. Now I understand why I felt that way.”
“S-Soichi…”
“Please go out with me for real. Please be my girlfriend. I want Yozora-senpai to be my girlfriend.”
I didn’t even wait for Yozora-senpai to calm down before I spoke. I was letting out my feelings as they were.
“…Of course. Of course I want to be your girlfriend. If that’s what you want, I’ll gladly be your real girlfriend.”
“Thank you very much, Yozora-senpai.”
“…Fufu, I’m so happy. It’s such a joy to have your wishes come true.”
I was also relieved by Yozora-senpai’s smile. When senpai smiles like that, it makes me happy too. I’ll do my best so that I can see that smile from now on.
“…Soichi.”
“Yozora-senpai…”
I nodded slowly at Yozora-senpai’s call. And then we put our lips together. We were now truly together, and we exchanged a kiss to prove it.
When I shouted that I wanted a girlfriend, I didn’t think it would come to this. I was very lucky that my cry, which was not directed at anyone, reached Yozora-senpai and I got a wonderful girlfriend.
I will continue to cherish her and make her happy. Feeling her solid warmth, I vowed to do so.
The end.
