I got to the rendezvous point with Lotus.
Looks like Lotus isn't here yet.
I adjust the hat position.
The sun is strong today. I should have applied sunscreen as well as a hat. I failed.
As I wait blurry, I can hear the girls hissing stories coming out of everywhere.
Oh, you're finally here.
"Sorry, wait?
I gaze at the lotus sight of the classic dialogue.
"It's too late. I thought I was going to get sunburned."
"... sunburn? You're not creaming?
"I forgot to apply it! Come on, let's go. Before I tanned."
"Oh, yeah......"
When I walk out of Stasta, Lotus Watch follows suit.
Our destination is the department store. It's that department store I ran into Lotus One day.
I want to look around small things.
I want to give Misaki-san the perfect accessory.
I was walking in front of Lotus View, but Lotus View with long legs quickly lines up next door.
I walk at a pace of loss and get out in front of Lotus again.
Lotus also changes stride and lines up next to me, saying in a frightened tone.
"What are you hanging out with? Angry?"
"We're not sticking together, and we're not angry"
"Then why are you walking in front of me?
"... because that's how it feels, is it?
"I asked..."
Lotus look at his face.
The truth is, somehow, I felt resistant to walking next to Lotus.
Somehow, but awkward.
Out of awkwardness, I squeeze out conversations.
"What will Lotus Mitsumi be given to Misaki?
"Oh...... right"
Lotus answered with a few thoughts.
"I'm going to make it something I can use on a daily basis."
"Really? Me too."
"We have to be careful not to wear it."
"Yeah, right. By the way, what were you given last year?
Last year, I gave you a bouquet of flowers.
"Well, a bouquet of flowers."
Is that it? You've heard this story somewhere.
Where were you? Um... yeah.
Sure, my brother said so.
Lotus Michi said every year she gives away a bouquet of flowers for Misaki-san's birthday. Because fresh flowers do not wither and remain.
Lotus is hard to see. What a thought. Speaking of which.
But will you give me something to stay with this year?
Is that a sign that you blew up about Misaki-san?
I guess so.
Then this shopping is a memorable first step for Lotus.
"... what. Those eyes."
"No, Master Lotus has grown..."
"Why are you gazing from the top?"
"Ugh."
"... don't look at me with disgusting eyes"
How rude of you to disgust me!
Though I purely smiled at the growth of lotus sight.
But whatever they say doesn't fit my nigga.
Lotus looked uncomfortable and gazed.
When we got to the department store, we just looked around the store that handles small items.
Um, I don't know what to do.
Aroma or something? Oh, this Aroma record is adorable. Oh, I'd like to put it over here or something.
But Aroma or whatever, you like it or not, you break up...
Misaki-san, I wonder what kind of smell you like.
When I consulted Lotus View earlier, Lotus View smelled it and advised me that this would be good.
All right, then, let's make this one!
Oh, this towel is cute, too. Let's secretly buy them in different colors.
Pink is Misaki, water is vegetable, so orange is me.
I bought a pink towel and the Aroma figurine that Lotus Michi chose and also asked for wrapping.
Thank you, clerk, for being so cute!
When I laughed and asked for a wrapping, the clerk told me, "Boyfriend looks cool".
or boyfriend!? No, it's not!
And I'm like, "You're dating your boyfriend, right? I envy you," he said as a smile.
Or, it's not my boyfriend! And it's not even a date!
When I denied it with all my might, the clerk said, "Really?" He looks at me with warm eyes.
I lost my temper and ran away as soon as I got my wrapping number.
Lotus looked at me wondering when I came back with my face red.
I lean without being able to look directly at Lotus' face.
"What's going on? Are you feeling worse?
"Hey, it's nothing..."
"Your face is red... but you have a fever, don't you?
"I'm fine! Hey, it's just hot!
"Even though it's air-conditioned?
Lotus seemed unconvinced.
I shake a different subject to distract from the conversation.
"Has Master Lotus decided on a gift?
"Oh. What happened to this?"
What Lotus took was hand cream.
When I used the test product, it smelled very good and I was sooo familiar with my skin.
It won't stick after I put it on, and this might be good.
"Wouldn't that be nice? I think I'd be happy for a girl."
"Well, let's make it this"
Lotus took a set of hand creams, did the accounting, and then asked for wrapping, just like me.
Then the clerk earlier said to me, "Should I give it to you with her," and gave me a ton of demo remarks.
Lotus looked back at me for a moment, then he became the usual faceless and replied, "We're fine together".
Deny her!
Look, I'm not denying it, so the clerk's looking at me with a smile on his face!
I honestly didn't feel alive until I left the store.
After I bought the gift, we talked about having tea somewhere.
You went shopping with me, and I have to serve tea, including that thank you.
I'm sorry to hear that you've always been extravagant.
As we talked about Misaki-san's reaction when the two of us opened the present, a small shadow popped up in front of us.
"Master Yasuyu!
The small shadow approaches the lotus view.
Glossy black hair has curly hair like a medieval European lady, with big underneath her eyes crying black, shaped little lips.
Exactly, a beautiful girl. A beautiful girl gave a full smile and spoke to Lotus View.
Is that it? I, this kid, I think I've seen it somewhere... where is it? I can't remember.
I stared at Lotus and her with horrible thoughts.
Two suits, I thought, and I decided to keep an eye on what happened.
