358. Towards a distant place with a step and a flight.(1/3)
The first Saturday after returning from Hakone.
Watanabe Toru picked out some nice-looking and comfortable clothes. He originally wanted to have a more handsome hairstyle, but because he didn't usually have the habit of tossing his hair, the temporary haircut didn't look pleasing to the eye.
In the end it was the same as usual.
They walked out of Room 502 and turned into Room 501. They had just finished their school trip and the three teachers were going to spend this weekend lazily at home.
Seeing Toru Watanabe come in, Asuka Mai, who has become a regular customer, immediately looked over.
"Aren't you going out?" Koizumi Aina stood up from the sofa.
"Well, let's talk." Watanabe Toru walked over and gently put his hands around her waist.
"What are you doing?" Koizumi Aina immediately became shy and her tone was flustered.
She put her hands on Toru Watanabe's chest and didn't push him away, just to keep their bodies from being too close.
"We're still here." Akiko looked away from the TV, "If you want to do something bad, can you go to the bedroom?"
Watanabe Toru crossed Koizumi Aona, glanced at Akiko, and then asked Koizumi Aona seriously: "Are you going?"
Koizumi Aona clenched her hands into fists and punched Toru Watanabe on the shoulder.
Watanabe Toru let go of her with a smile, and then looked at Asuka Mai.
"Hug." Asuka Mai opened her hands.
Watanabe Tetsu didn't hug her, but instead covered her delicate and beautiful face with his hand, waited for her little mouth to pout a little, and kissed her gently.
"Hey——" Akiko couldn't stand it and crawled into Miyuki Miyazaki's arms.
Miyuki Miyazaki put his hand on her head and pushed her down on the sofa without mercy.
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu”
Koizumi Aina's face was still red, and she smiled and patted her hand away.
"Only give Watanabe a hug, but don't give me a hug. I will remember you and break up our friendship!"
Akiko acted pitiful there, so Watanabe Tetsu let go of Asuka Mai and said to her: "Let's be happy together."
"Yeah!" Asuka Mai responded happily.
"I'm leaving." He said to everyone.
"Pay attention to safety on the road." Koizumi Aina warned.
"good."
With Miki Kujo, Mai Asahi, Aona Koizumi, and now Rin Kiyono, Toru Watanabe feels full of strength and happiness.
He can do anything for them and refuse any temptation for them.
The sky was clear and the train was brightly lit. Toru Watanabe recalled the day he returned to Iwate Prefecture, when the three of them rode an old single-car train together.
When we meet later, what should be the first thing you say?
Complimenting her clothes for looking good? There’s no way her clothes don’t look good.
Complimenting the hair? I can’t imagine a time when Rin Kiyono’s hair didn’t look good.
That can only be said...
"Qingye-san, I like you."
Her lead-black hair was rippling in the wind, and her clothes showed the elegance of a girl. Rin Kiyono, who was usually very good-looking, was even more beautiful than before today.
Rin Kiyono looked at Toru Watanabe like he was a fool.
She opened her lips slightly and was about to speak when Toru Watanabe quickly raised his hand to interrupt her.
"Wait a minute!" he said, "On the first date, your opening remarks must be perfect. Start over!"
Rin Qingye crossed his arms leisurely, waiting for him to start the date again.
"Have you thought about it?" After a while, she asked with a slightly teasing and provocative smile.
"Well——" Watanabe Tetsu frowned, "I can only try it."
Qingye Rin raised his chin slightly, meaning: "Let's talk."
Watanabe Toru looked at her clear and beautiful eyes and said: "I like you..."
"Isn't this the same as before?"
".....cold."
"..."
"I like you, Rin."
"......Um."
"Rin, I like you."
"If you like to repeat yourself so much, I suggest you apply for a job as a station announcer." Qingye Rin pushed her hair behind her ears and turned her face away, exposing her fair and small ears, which were dyed red.
"I have never been a broadcaster, but I have been a train co-operator for a day," Toru Watanabe said.
"Lying again."
"Have you forgotten? "Iwate Prefecture to Tokyo, 400 kilometers." Toru Watanabe pulled back his bangs and made a gesture of putting on a hat.
"Okay." Qingye Rin recovered from her shyness, "Where should we go first, Tohru-san?"
"...What did you call me?"
Rin Kiyono put his hand to his lips, not daring to look at Toru Watanabe, and said in a low voice like a sigh:
"......thorough."
"Say it again."
"......thorough."
"Say it again!"
Rin Kiyono glared at Toru Watanabe sharply, with a blush on his pretty and fair face.
That cute look made Toru Watanabe's heart beat faster. If this were Sengokuhara where there was no one around, he would definitely scream.
"Sorry." he said.
"Why are you apologizing?" Rin Kiyono was a little surprised. This was not in line with Toru Watanabe's character.
"I'm not apologizing for what happened just now." Toru Watanabe scratched his eyebrows with his fingers, "I suddenly felt a little shy just now and couldn't think of what to say, so I apologized."
Qingye Rin was stunned for a moment, and then looked at him funny.
"You already have three girlfriends, how can you still be shy with me, the fourth one?"
"No, no, no, you are the first person I fell in love with."
"The response is pretty quick." Qingye Rin nodded tentatively with satisfaction.
"Rather than a reaction, I think it's because I've always thought this way and formed an instinct." Toru Watanabe thanked Sister Miki who "has been testing him with various language traps."
"Now, are you thanking Mei Ji in your heart?"
"...let me explain why I am shy."
Qingye Rin was funny but helpless: "Okay."
"Talking as we walk." As soon as Toru Watanabe spoke, the two of them realized that they had been standing at the gathering position and had not moved at all.
The so-called date means that as long as the two of them do nothing, they are happy enough just standing here and chatting.
Watanabe Toru and Kiyono Rin realized this at the same time, and then fell into happiness together.
When he was about to leave the area around Yotsuya Station, Toru Watanabe remembered something very important.
He glanced at Qingye Rin, and she was looking at him.
The two people's eyes met, and they quickly became entangled, and then immediately separated.
'What's going on?! Why are you so shy and excited! I've obviously hugged you!'
Watanabe Toru mustered up his courage and stretched out his trembling right hand towards Qingye Rin's white left hand.
The moment skin and skin just came into contact, Qingye Rin took his hand away.
"Sorry, sorry!" Toru Watanabe said quickly, "I was in a hurry!"
There are also many girls who don’t know how to hold hands on the first date.
Rin Kiyono was so shy that his body was trembling, but seeing his cautious look, he immediately relaxed.
She put her hand down from her arms, returned to its original position, and used her movements to tell Toru Watanabe that she could hold hands.
But Toru Watanabe was frightened and never dared to take action.
"Why are you so shy?" Qingye Rin was really curious this time.
"Shy? I don't want to scare you. This is the first time I deliberately pretend to be a gentleman..." The reaction was so quick that I forgot that Qingye Rin could see through lies.
To be continued...
