Chapter 253: Miyagi's language is difficult — 253

Translated by KaiesV

Edited by KaiesV

Spring break is fun.

I will definitely be spending more time with Miyagi in this house, and it will be fun to just hang out in the same room. It is more fun to think that perhaps an aquarium or zoo might go with them.

I thought so, but Mio’s phone call made the first day of spring break a depressing one.

「Sendai-san, are you not eating?」

I heard a voice from across the table and looked at Miyagi, she was staring at me with a piece of toast with butter and jam in her hand.

「Eh, ah, I’ll eat.」

The simple breakfast of toast and ham and eggs placed before me has not diminished one bit.

Miyagi bites into a piece of toast. I watched as Miyagi bit into a piece of toast, then took two bites of the white of the fried egg, and then bit into a piece of toast with butter and jam on it.

If I do not complete the mission of telling Miyagi about the promise I made to Mio yesterday—— or more accurately, the promise I was forced to make—— and if possible, get Miyagi to agree to meet with Mio, I will spend my spring break with a feeling that is far from pleasant.

「Miyagi, you don’t have any special plans for spring break, do you?」

With a fork, lightly poke the semi-cooked yolk.

「I don’t want to go anywhere.」

「I haven’t said anything yet.」

「I only said that because you’re about to start asking me to go out with me.」

「What about the zoo or the aquarium?」

「I’m not going. You have a part-time job anyway, aren’t you, Sendai-san?」

The answer is boring, and I poke and tear the yolk of my fried egg again and take a bite of the yellow-covered ham.

「I said I’d work part-time during spring break, but not that much.」

I told Miyagi that a few days ago, and I’m sure she got the message, but her mood is not so good.

I’m supposed to get a part-time job at a cafe, as I did during the winter break, but I don’t intend to work so much that I lose most of my vacation time. And the tutoring job is as good as gone. Kikyō-chan has finished taking the entrance exam for the school of her choice and will know the results soon. If she had passed safely, there is nothing more for me to do.

She has asked me to continue tutoring her after she goes on to higher education, but the details will be discussed after she passes.

「Miyagi. You don’t have to go out, but I need you to do me one favor.」

I really want her to go out with me, but I have to take care of more difficult issues first.

「…One favor?」

Miyagi wrinkles her brow before I spoke of the contents.

The promise I made to Mio might be something that could be misrepresented by saying something appropriate, but considering her character, even if I pretends that this conversation never happened, I’m sure that she will try to get me to make another promise.

There are plenty of holidays. Golden Week, summer vacation, and even just Sundays can take the place of this appointment.

Perhaps the coming of Mio is something inevitable, and I would like to get rid of it as soon as possible.

「Don’t look so disgusted, just listen to me. Mio will come here to play——」

「I’m meeting Maika that day, so let me know when you decide. I’ll be out of your way.」

Miyagi says without hearing me finish.

「That’s not what I meant. I want you to be there on the day Mio comes, Miyagi.」

「Why? Komatsu-san is a friend of yours, right, Sendai-san?」

「Yes, but she wants to see you, Miyagi.」

「I absolutely don’t want to.」

The wrinkles between Miyagi’s eyebrows deepen.

If I could, I would want to wrinkle my brow too, but I consciously smile.

「Don’t worry. It’s only for half a day. You should meet Mio.」

Despite the cheerful voice I am letting Miyagi hear, a low voice in my heart is saying,「I don’t want Miyagi to meet Mio.」

I’m the only one Miyagi sees during spring break and there is no need for her to be friends with Mio. I accept Miyagi’s words that she doesn’t want to see Mio and I want to tell Mio right now that she will not see Miyagi.

But once I put up with it, my future college life will be peaceful. It may not be perfect, but it will get me closer to that kind of life. If Mio isn’t allowed to see Miyagi unnaturally, it would give her a sense of distrust and allow unnecessary scrutiny.

「Even if we meet, we have nothing to talk about, so I don’t want to. In general, what does she want to see me or what does Komatsu-san want from me?」

「Her purpose? Mhm, doesn’t she want to be friends with you, Miyagi?」

The words that came out of my mouth we’re very pleasant and made my heart swell. It’s not Mio’s fault, but it’s not funny.

Miyagi that doesn’t belong to me shouldn’t belong to Mio.

There’s no such possibility, but it’s not zero, and it makes me feel as bad as if I had oil splashed on my chest.

Miyagi should not belong to anyone, not only Mio.

「It’s the same as when Utsunomiya came to visit, and you should stay home. I’ll do whatever you say.」

I drink orange juice to push away the oil that has built up deep in my body.

「Does that mean I can order you around?」

「Yes.」

「Sendai-san, if you stop selling your orders cheaply.」

「If Miyagi doesn’t want to order me to do something else, I’ll do it. Any requests?」

「I don’t have any, so you and Komatsu-san should meet alone.」

「That’s not good enough. I’ll make any exchange you want. Just give me half a day.」

As if following my voice, I hear the sound of a fork hitting the plate with a clink. It wasn’t a loud noise, but I was curious and looked at Miyagi’s hand and saw a small tomato as an accompaniment stuck in her fork. But she didn’t eat it and let out a small breath.

「…Then, when me and Maika go out to play, Sendai-san, you can come too.」

A voice, neither small nor loud, echoes in my ears.

「With Utsunomiya?」

「Right. An exchange condition. In exchange for seeing Komatsu-san, the three of us can go out together anytime.」

I can’t say I don’t like it, not that I don’t want to.

It’s just that it makes my heart flutter just a little bit, somehow.

I know that this is my trivial jealousy and that Utsunomiya is not at fault. And if I accept this proposal, the case with Mio will be cleared up and everything will be settled.

「You don’t have to make it an exchange, I don’t mind going out to play.」

「Terms of exchange are fine.」

「If you want, Miyagi, fine, but where are we going?」

I bite into my toast and look at Miyagi.

「She hasn’t decided, but she said she wanted Sendai-san to pick out some clothes for her.」

Miyagi snacked on the mini-tomatoes with gusto, as if she had a grudge against them.

「Do you want me to pick out clothes for you too, Miyagi?」

「You don’t have to choose for me.」

「Why not? I’ll pick something cute for you. I mean, let me choose for you.」

「I don’t need any clothes, and I don’t need pretty ones.」

「You looked like you don’t like it when I say you’re cute, but aren’t you like cute, Miyagi?」

「I don’t care about my story. We’re talking about Maika now.」

I hear a grumpy voice and I maturely return to the subject.

「I know. I’ll ask Utsunomiya later what kind of clothes she wants.」

「——You’ll talk to Maika?」

Miyagi asks in a low voice what is obvious.

「It’s hard to choose if I didn’t know what she like. So, when do you want it, Miyagi?」

「When?」

「You know that. The day to meet Mio.」

Take a bite of ham and wait for a reply.

But Miyagi doesn’t open her mouth.

I remained silent as I bit into my toast and ate all the fried eggs, then asked,「Miyagi, when would you like to meet her?」I heard a muffled voice when I urged her to reply.

「As soon as possible.」

「When is that? Like the end of February?」

「…March.」

「Alright. I’ll tell Mio that it will be in March. Oh, one more thing. Keep the day of the dried fish.」

「…Why do you say it that way? Why don’t you just say February 14th?」

「When we were in high school, you told me that February 14 was Dried Fish Day, Miyagi. Did you forget?」

Valentine’s Day during our sophomore year of high school.

I remember well that when I tried to give Miyagi a friend’s chocolate, she told me so.

「That kind of thing, that’s not in character.」

「Leave it open, even if it’s out of character.」

No reply from Miyagi.

But she will tell me if she doesn’t want to, so the fact that she hasn’t responded means that she doesn’t mind, which confirms one of my spring break plans.
