I Was Supposed to Be Giving Love Advice on the School Radio, but Before I Knew It, the Beautiful Girls at School Were Hitting on Me
“Here it comes ! Emiplus……!”
I shouted when I saw the shopping mall towering in front of me after getting off the train, which took about 30 minutes from the nearest station.
It was the biggest shopping mall in the prefecture. It stands tall in the middle of nowhere.
With a huge parking lot, it was so crowded with people that even from the outside you could tell that…..aka Emiplus was sucking in the weekend entertainment-hungry residents of the prefecture.
I take a deep breath to calm my nerves.
“It smells like redevelopment !”
I shouted. I can’t ! There was no way I could calm down like this !
I feel as if I’m in a different mood than when I was dragged here by my father who wanted to go to the sports store, because today I have “that thing”……!
“S-sorry to keep you waiting……”
As I take a deep breath in front of the station, I hear a voice behind me.
“Yo ! Kiahara……”
I turn around and try to greet her vigorously, but end up falling flat on my butt. I was at a loss for words for a moment when I saw Kitahara.
Kitahara is wearing a white one-piece dress with a light brown cardigan over it. In addition, she was wearing a white beret.
She was put together in an age-appropriate manner while making excellent use of her mature atmosphere and style.
Let’s face it, she was very cute.
“O-oh……”
I should have seen her all the time, but I felt like I was meeting up with a beautiful girl I didn’t know, and I just couldn’t help but get a little freaked out.
However, perhaps misunderstanding my reaction, Kitahara crossed her arms and turned away.
“What, you wanna say this kind of cutesy look doesn’t suit me anyway, don’t you? I know that even if you don’t say it.”
Ah, no ! That’s not what I meant ! It was so cute, I just couldn’t speak out of reflex……”
Oh no, I made her feel bad because of my weird reaction……
When I quickly remedied that, Kitahara, still with her arms crossed, glanced in my direction.
“……Really?”
“Oh, yeah, it looks great on you.”
“Fufu.”
This time she was praised honestly.
Kitahara snorted lightly and released his arms.
“Thank you, I’ll take you at your word.”
“Oh, please do.”
The usually shy Kitahara smiled softly this time, as if she had taken it in stride.
“Then, let’s go, Kageyama kun.”
Kitahara walked briskly with her hands clasped behind her back.
The “Lady of the North Wind,” as she was called, had no sense of caution on her back.
“I’m on a date with Kitahara right now……”
I invited her myself, but when I confirmed the fact again, she stood there.
I’m sure you wouldn’t believe me if I told you that I just took a seat next to Kitahara around the time the school year changed.
“Hey Kageyama kun, let’s get going, shall we?”
“Oh, my bad ! I’m coming !”
I ran towards her as she spun around and looked back at me.
I caught up with her right away and we walked side by side.
“Kitahara, is there anywhere you want to see first?”
“I’d like to see a lot of things since we’re here…..”
Kitahara leans forward and looks at my face.
“Since it’s you, Kageyama kun, I’m sure you want to check it out.”
“…You found out?”
“I know what Kageyama kun is thinking.”
“I’m sorry for dragging you out.”
I bowed my head and Kitahara snorted.
“Well, I guess I’ll be with you to the end since things have come to this.”
Looking at Kitahara’s profile, who looked like she was having fun despite what she said, we rushed towards our destination.

“Oh, oh……!”
We came to the center of Emiplus.
The hall, named after the sun through the trees, was built in the middle of the doughnut-shaped stores.
The stage, where hero shows and live performances by local idols are usually held, has only two microphones and a desk.
But that’s what makes me more excited than anything else today.
While I was quietly burning with passion, Kitahara murmured.
“So they’re doing a public recording here……”
“Yes……correct !”
Kitahara let out a gasp. Hearing that, the dam that had been holding back my heat burst.
“Actually, this is the 10th anniversary of Heart Lady, but I didn’t expect a surprise public recording ! And it’s free admission at the shopping mall ! This is a once in a lifetime opportunity ! Events at these types of venues tend to be dominated by hero shows, so I’m more than happy that Heart Lady can now stand shoulder to shoulder with them. Plus, it’s really rare to get a chance to see Toyama chan live ! …..I can’t contain my excitement at the thought of what will happen if the number of viewers increases because of this event !”
After saying that much, I notice that Kitahara is silent next to me.
“Ah, sorry ! I got all excited on my own……”
“Don’t mind it.”
Kitahara chuckled softly.
“It’s nice to see a boy talking about what he likes.”
“O-oh, thank you……”
I was embarrassed because I had not expected to be praised so honestly.
I scratch the back of my head.
“It’s just.”
However, moments later, Kitahara moved her face closer.
Her hair swayed, and a lovely floral scent gently tickled my nostrils.
“You’re on a date with me, so I don’t really like it when you bring up other women’s names.”
“D-date…..”
No, I invited Kitahara and we went out together !
Does Kitahara really think this is a date? It’s with me, you know?
I don’t know how to reply, and various replies are going around in my brain.
“T- then, it’s a date…….”
I don’t know what Kitahara thinks, but I decided to admit it honestly.
Then, Kitahara suddenly burst into smiles, as if a flower had bloomed. It was a smile so cute it was heart-stopping.
“Fufu, that’s the spirit !”
“T-then, let’s get going ! We’ve already done our inspection and I’m starving !”
I was moving away from the stage, and Kitahara was following me with light steps.
