I’m Tired of My Childhood Friend Playing Pranks on Me, so I Want to Date a Female Friend Who Loves Me Sincerely
“Today was fun. Thank you for everything.”
“No, I had fun too. I’ll invite you again.”
“Yes, I’m looking forward to it!”
After that, various things happened, and I had dinner with the Kagumo family after 7:00 p.m., and it was already 10:00 p.m.
I never thought we’d be here this late.
After dinner, I tried to leave right away, but Madoka-chan and the other two sisters stopped me and made me stay to play with them.
We played games and tag all over the estate, and I was exhausted.
I still think of myself as young, but elementary and middle school students have incredible energy. Even though I have more stamina, I lose in terms of willpower.
“Thank you, Madokau-chan, Kanna-chan, and Misuzu-chan. I had a lot of fun.”
I truly enjoyed myself immensely.
It felt like I hadn’t spent time without thinking about unpleasant things in a long time. Nagiri-san also joined in the fun, and I’m sure it was a memorable experience for her.
“””Yes, please come again, Ayato-nii-chan♡”””
Madoka was like that from the beginning, but Misuzu and Kanna also seemed to warm up to me halfway through, and we felt close.
I saw Nagiri-san looking disappointed for some reason when she saw that.
“Well then, Nagiri-san. See you tomorrow at school.”
“Yes, see you then.”
The distance between Nagiri-san’s house and my house is neither far nor close. It’s about a 30-minute walk at most.
By the time I arrived home, it was already past 40 minutes.
“I’m home.”
There was no response from inside the house. Well, at this time of day, Hanako is probably already asleep or reading manga in her room.
Besides, I’m a little hungry from the exercise, so I was going to eat in the morning, but maybe I’ll eat now.
When I opened the refrigerator, I saw that there was meat and potatoes and soba noodles prepared on the top shelf.
What kind of combination is that? I thought to myself, but Hanako’s cooking is always delicious, so of course I didn’t complain.
After all, I’m the one who’s being fed, so it’s only natural to be grateful, and complaining is out of the question.
“I’m going to eat now.”
I quietly put my hands together and picked up my chopsticks so as not to make any noise. Just as I was about to take a bite of soba, I heard someone coming down the stairs.
“Oh, Onii chan. You’re back. Welcome home.”
“Yeah, I’m home. I’m eating right now. Thank you as always.”
“Sure, you’re welcome.”
Hanako said that and went to the kitchen to get some tea.
“Would you like some too?”
“Yes, please.”
“Okay.”
While waiting for Hanako to bring the tea, I took a bite or two of the nikujaga.
Yes, Hanako’s cooking was really delicious. Nagiri-san’s home cooking was also luxurious and amazing, but Hanako’s cooking had a homey taste to it that made me feel at ease.
“Here’s your tea.”
“Thanks.”
“Alright.”
“Hm? What’s wrong? Is there something you want to talk about?”
“Yeah. I was wondering where you’ve been hanging out until now.”
