The Case of My Childhood Friend Who Became a Very Popular Model and Came Back to Fulfill a Promise We Made When We Were Children
It’s just another Monday.
It’s the first day of the week, and it’s depressing, and I wish Mondays would never come.
But today is the day I’ve been waiting for for four years.
“You’re so excited. Did something good happen?”
“You know?”
“I know that it’s weird.”
“I see. I see.”
I was feeling so good right now that I didn’t even bother to say anything about feeling bad.
I had been like this all morning, and it was already after school.
My tension was at its highest.
“Ayumu, I heard that he is going home with his childhood friend today ? That’s why he is in such a good mood.”
Himi said so with dismay.
I was answering the same question that Himi had asked me earlier.
“What? I didn’t know though? What do you mean you told Himi but not me? Isn’t there a friend gap?”
“It’s just a coincidence. What do you mean by “friend gap”? Don’t make up a new word.”
“Oh, you’re back to your usual Ayumu.”
“You’re judging me mainly on my ability to make a joke.”
“”Y-You’re so sharp!””
“You guys are too.”
Himi and Masahiro’s chemistry is on the level of a married couple.
You guys should go out now. ……
“Well, I’m going to go have some fun.”
“Okay.”
“Fight.”
With my two best friends cheering me on, I headed for my destination.
＊＊＊
It was a small, cozy park a short walk from the school.
Not many people were there, and it was a perfect place for us to meet up.
A beautiful girl was standing there as if a flower was blooming.
I couldn’t help but stop and look at Akane from afar.
Her long brown hair was blowing in the wind, and it was picturesque.
In addition, her brand new school uniform looked so good on her that I thought it had been made just for her.
The skirt was like that of a high school girl, but not too short. Her legs, which stretched out smoothly, were hidden by black tights, but their beauty stood out even more.
I couldn’t help but admire them.
Then Akane noticed me and came running toward me.
“You’re late! I waited for you!”
Akane’s goo-punch flew to my shoulder.
But the sound effect was a pop, and as usual, I felt no pain.
“Sorry, sorry. Sorry to keep you waiting.”
“Really….I’ll forgive you if you hold …… my hand okay?”
“……”
I checked my surroundings.
No one is anywhere to be seen.
“Okay. But you’ll have to put on a disguise.”
“Yay! Roger!”
Akane, in a good mood, took out a mask and round glasses from her bag.
This was the minimum disguise set that I had promised the manager.
Well, to be honest, even if Akane was here, I don’t think someone won’t recognize her, and it seems like we won’t know in the end… Just in case, just in case.
“Then let’s go?
“I guess so.”
I’ll take Akane’s hand.
Akane’s “fussy-chan” mode had been exploding recently, so I got used to the skinship.
Before, she used to give me the pinky finger, but now our hands are touching each other with gusto.
“Speaking of which, how did things go at school? Did you make any friends?”
“I made a lot of friends. Everyone was friendly, kind, and very nice to me.”
“Ugh. …… I only have about three friends. ……”
“Not many!”
“I-I’m a select few!”
“pfft.”
I was laughed at through the nose.
Somehow, I felt like Akane was seeing through everything.
After all, my childhood friend is amazing.
“Next time I see Ayumu, I’ll introduce you to some of my friends. There is a girl who is very popular with me, and I wanted Ayumu to meet her.”
“Hee~, really?”
“By the way, don’t fall in love with her because she’s so cute, okay?”
“There are no girls cuter than Akane, so don’t worry.”
“H-Hmmm~. -I see~, hmmm~…”
Recently, I found out that Akane was apparently weak against aggression, so I decided to aggressively attack her.
That said, I just wanted to see Akane embarrassed because she is the cutest girl I’ve ever seen.
“A-Anyway, I’ll take you to see her sometime.”
“Oh, thanks.”
I wondered what kind of person Akane would want to introduce me to.
I was looking forward to that time in secret, hoping for the best.
