I've done it again this year, it's time for an excursion.

I'm not sure I upgraded this year over last year... but the place for this year's excursion is the aquarium.

Everyone is twitching now where there are other small amusement parks and sports facilities in the aquarium.

There's no squad behavior or anything this year, and they say you can move freely when you get to your destination, so when you're thrilled to see where you're going with your friends, you call me.

Oh, my God, I'm busy talking about excursions.

It was the prince who summoned me.

... Yeah, you're a lot more aggressive, Prince. Ha ha.

I had a dry grin inside.

Since I met the prince face to face, I have been able to talk to the prince about something more often.

I often acted with Lotus View in proportion to that.

I kind of have a back ache lately. My surrounding gaze pushes me through my back.

"Kaguraki, next excursion, why don't we go around together?

It was the word I expected, but I hadn't even thought about what a response would be.

No, I guess I should normally say no, but I was wondering if you'd give up.

"It's awesome. Tojo-sama's fans are going to be jealous."

I tried turning it down a long way, but I don't know.

Well, then... give it up.

"It doesn't have to be all the time. It just takes like 15 or 30 minutes. No, I don't think so.

Hey, sticky.

Hmm, hard to say no......

No, here, I need to kick it down!

"No."

Rin's voice sounds as I try to say no.

Surprised. I thought my heart's voice had leaked.

"Misaki..."

"Huh?"

"Good afternoon, Rinhua-san,"

When I turned around, there was Misaki smiling.

Huh? Misaki-san?

Misaki-san saw me talking to the prince alone!?

"I'm sorry you're in the middle of a conversation. But don't. It's not a good idea to run out."

"Misaki knew Kaguraki?

"I don't know you, my friend. Hey, Rinha?

"Yes!

"Hehe. That's what I'm talking about. Do you understand me?

"Oh, oh... but run out?

"You, Rinhua-san and I were about to take a hike, weren't we? Even I want to go around with Rinhua. It's just sloppy."

"That's the thing......"

The prince smiled bitterly.

Misaki-san talking to the prince is pathetic.

Lovely. Happy to be able to observe so close.

As I was listening to my dreams, Misaki-san smiled at me and the prince.

Don't tell me you were thrilled with that smile.

"So let's all go around together, shall we? Of course, call Yasuyu. Right, Rinhua?

"... yes... of course..."

I nodded without thinking deeply.

Nod and then hack.

Now, Misaki-san, did I tell you we're all going around together?

Huh? Am I supposed to get mixed up with this fancy member?

But now it's hard to say no...

"Ugh. Looking forward to the excursion, Rinhua-san"

When I saw Misaki smiling and laughing, I stopped feeling like saying no.

I snort as a sneer too when Misaki-san follows me.

I don't care about the Prince and Lotus, but I'm glad to be with Misaki-san in grandeur.

The prince had a troubled look on his face when he saw us laughing at each other.

Here we are, it's excursion day.

I'm on the bus now.

I enjoy the view while giving thought to my destination, the aquarium.

But here's one question.

"Why is Lord Lotus sitting next to you"

"Is there a problem?

"I think there's only one problem... someone take a seat with me..."

I glanced around but was blinded by everyone at the same time.

Apparently, I have fallen into a state of isolation.

When.

"... you don't like it?

"I don't like it... I'm afraid of the eyes around me..."

"You haven't seen anyone."

"... is it?

Is it my paranoia to feel my gaze from earlier?

Well, no. I don't think you can change your seat.

I switch my head and think about what happens when I get to my destination.

"Master Lotus, where shall we go first?

"Nothing, I can be anywhere, but shouldn't we go to the sports facilities first?

"Sports…? Um, Master Lotus. Unfortunately, I don't like sports."

"Huh. So?"

"That's why I want to go around the sports facilities slowly, I don't know."

"... I wouldn't mind if Misaki and Tatsuji convinced me. Maybe he wants to go to a sports facility."

"... Really?"

Yeah, let's give up. I'll keep an eye on the three of you sporting friendly. Let's do that.

I am very vulnerable to the prince's push.

When I don't like it, I'm the right type to say I don't like it.

And yet, for some reason, it's hard to say no only to the prince. I wonder why.

My phone rings with pyroline.

When I opened my phone, Misaki-san was texting me.

"Meet me at the entrance.

Wait with Yasuyu. "

I replied, "Okay," and I'll tell Lotus what's in the email as well.

After I finished replying, I remembered the day the prince asked me to go around the excursion with him.

After that, Misaki-san invited me to tea.

When I had tea with Misaki-san, even though the story always played, that day was different.

Awkward silence wraps us up.

I'm in a hurry to tell you something, but I can't get my head around it well and I can't think of anything.

And then, abruptly, Misaki-san spoke pompously.

"Rinhua-san, you've met with a..."

'Yes...... sorry'

"Why are you apologizing? Is it a coincidence that we met?

'That's right...'

I don't know what to say, bite my lips.

I can't tell you. I can't tell Misaki-san that I apologized because the prince fell in love with me.

'I don't know... I knew this would happen. Rinhua-san will attract you. "

"Misaki......"

'Cause Rinhua is my favorite. I knew there was no way I didn't like it. Rinhua said that she would be attracted to Rinhua...'

…………

I look down.

Oh, my God, what can I tell Misaki-san?

I'm sorry?

No. That's not what I'm supposed to say.

"... I can't beat you"

I looked up to Misaki-san's powerful voice.

Misaki-san was staring straight at me.

"I won't give up. 'Cause I like it. I can't give up. It's still a one-sided thought. You don't need me to give up, do you? Watch, Rinhua. I'll definitely let you turn around."

That's what Misaki says and smiles invincibly.

Very, very good looking.

Absolutely, you're supposed to have complicated feelings about me, but you don't even give it a bite.

I admired Misaki-san's appearance.

"Misaki...... Yes, I'm watching. Good luck, Misaki. '

'Thanks.... hey Rinhua. If... if Rinhua likes you... don't hide it then tell me? I'll definitely bless you, though you may not be able to do it right away. Congratulations. You know, I love Rinhua. So if Rinhua is happy, I want to say congratulations...'

Misaki-san's eyes sting.

I moaned Misaki-san's words, as did my eyes.

... Glad. I can't believe you thought that.

Even though it is Misaki-san who is hard, she cares about me.

Misaki-san's kindness is delightful and unchanging.

"Misaki...... ok. I'll tell Misaki the best when I have someone I like. Whoever that opponent is. '

"Yes."

"Misaki, I love Misaki too. So, when Misaki's thoughts come true, let her celebrate in a grand way '

'... hehe. Thank you.'

We laughed at each other with tears in our eyes.

Misaki-san is strong. I want to be strong like Misaki-san, too.
