A blank space fell between the two of them.

For quite a while, neither of them spoke.

Kato Yusuke's eyebrows flashed, and there was a slight emotion that others could not understand.

"I don't know how to interact with people."

He said in a cold voice: "I can't be my senior's boyfriend, and my senior can't be my girlfriend."

Shiyu couldn't help but turn pale, and his slightly absent-minded eyes were confused for a moment.

Her lips trembled a few times, as if being choked by a strong cold wind, and she couldn't say a word for a long time.

"Even so, senior sister insists on using that condition and is willing to accept..."

"——I do!" Shiyu suddenly cut off his words, and the strength on his face was shattered in an instant, and he choked and said: "I just want to do it!"

The empty eyes seemed to suddenly have light.

Facing this extremely firm and fiery confession that seemed to be burning with anger, Kato Yusuke felt a touch of emotion in his heart and couldn't help but remain silent.

"...This is a very stupid choice." He said in a deep voice, his voice a little hoarse.

"I did this voluntarily, so you don't have to worry."

"It's not too late to regret now."

"You can't scare me, and you can't force me to retreat like this. I will see for myself what happens... No matter what happens, I will not regret it."

Shiyu took a deep breath and squeezed out a smile on his pale face.

"Now, if you finish asking, I just want to know, can I hug you openly? Yu-chan..."

Before Kato Yusuke could respond, the girl hugged him from the front.

Her trembling arms hugged his neck tightly, and her beautiful head rested on the chest between her shoulders.

This kind of hug is not so much a romantic hug from an adult, but more like the innocent hug of a little girl throwing herself at her father.

The smell of sweet perfume is astounding to your nose, and your chin is tickled by your incredibly smooth hair, which smells like rain.

Kato Yusuke's eyes were dim and he asked silently: "...Is it worth doing this?"

"..."

Shiyu slowly raised his head, hugged his cheek with cold catkins, and asked him to look at her.

"Who do you think I am doing by racking my brains so much in writing and trying to improve myself?"

The slowly exhaled breath is so charming that it makes one's skin crawl.

She smiled as she spoke, as if she would cry if she relaxed.

"Hey, Yuu-chan."

Shiyu laughed for a while and called softly: "Come and kiss."

Without any further hesitation, everything was out of control.

Shiyu caressed his face, stood on tiptoes slightly, and sniffed him in an unorganized manner.

The tip of her nose brushed against the tip of his nose, her lips moved tremblingly against his cheek, and finally fell to her lips. There was a blank pause for a second.

The next second, she kissed him.

At that moment, the surrounding sounds slowly disappeared, along with all the hustle and bustle of autumn.

"Um……"

——The soft and plump lips squeezed over, boldly pried open his teeth, and tasted wantonly.

The rain around me gradually became lighter unconsciously.

A weak wind blew gently, making the leaves of the trees sway like itching, and I covered my eyes shyly.

Kato Yusuke passively accepted the girl's deep kiss. He raised and lowered his hands hanging by his legs. He never had enough consciousness to push away the gently trembling body in his arms...

After an unknown amount of time, Shiyu finally moved his head back.

Looking at Yusuke who seemed stunned and speechless, she couldn't help but lick her lips and said: "I have taken ninety-nine steps, and the remaining steps will one day let you make up for me.

, Yu-chan.”

After saying that, she leaned in and kissed him again.

The street lamp in the corner of the observatory flickered on, faintly illuminating their faces...

After that, the two walked down the hill.

I originally thought of going to Tiebundo Bookstore to look for Machida Enko, but after talking on the phone, the other party directly designated the location near the station building - the Wahe Jefferson Hotel.

After walking for about half an hour, we arrived at the most upscale accommodation and dining facility in the area.

In the cafe in the lobby on the first floor, Kato Yusuke met Machida Enko, who had just talked on the phone.

The other party was sitting at a seat by the window. When he saw the two of them entering the hotel from the main entrance, he immediately stood up.

"Little poem~~~! Kato-chan!"

She shouted at a volume that would not cause trouble to other guests, ran over, and hugged the dripping Shiyu.

"You can't dress like this. Clean clothes are ready. Come and change with me quickly."

Shiyu, who was held by her, seemed to be resisting, but her tone was gentle, "Well, I understand, Miss Machida, so please relax a little."

So Machida Enzi turned her attention to Kato Yusuke again and said with some gratitude:

"Sorry, Kato-chan, please sit here for a while. If you want to drink, feel free to drink. I'll go deal with this problem child."

After saying that, he took Shiyu away without any explanation.

Kato Yusuke didn't care about this and just followed the waiter to the seat where she was sitting before and sat down on it.

Wait quietly.
