"Speaking of which, I've never had a tapioca. When I was in the boom, I didn't feel like queuing up, and nobody was going out for a drink with me in the first place."

"Really? Then it's the first tapi of my life. I'm so glad I got my first Sunshine."

Nanami, the way you put it can create a bit of a misunderstanding. Why don't you just think about it a little bit? No, am I just thinking too much?

We bought the ingredients for dinner together that Nanakai-san had been asked for, then the tapioca store... I don't know if this expression is there, but I went to the tapioca store anyway and ordered something for each one of us to drink.

There seemed to be quite a queue at the boom, but now the order turns quickly to the point of just a short wait.

I didn't know I was going to drink tapioca...

I told Nanakai earlier that I didn't feel like lining up, but if I had been with Nanakai by then... I imagine it would have been fun rather than bitter to line up.

Well, it's a less meaningful imagination. But I'm sure there were lovers who enjoyed that kind of time.... No, I'm surprised at my change when I think about this.

In the meantime, I've never had a drink, so make it a classic tapioca milk tea, and Mr. Seven Seas is an orange tea? I was going to say. The bright orange colour in my eyes is so beautiful.

At the time of accounting, I put together the payment. [M] Mr. Nanakai was somewhat reluctant, but he seemed reluctantly convinced to tell me that I had already paid.

I have my daily lunches and cookies to thank, and I just want this much to be honest...... this would be a good place for Mr. Seven Seas as well.

Again, I see Mr. Seven Seas with orange tea. [M]

The clear, beautiful orange color really suits Mr. Seven Seas when I try this. Tapioca's thoughts may be slightly different, but that was like a great painting.

"Mr. Seven Seas, can I take a picture?

"Huh? Oh, yeah. Take it. Take it."

I dared say less and asked Nanakai if I could take a picture of Nanakai's whole body with a tapioca as it was when I got permission.

With an orange clear prakop, I smiled at Nanakai-san's... The best photo was saved on my smartphone.

This is a waiting decision.

"To?"

Mr. Qihai approached me straight away and looked at the photograph taken... and shouted a similar surprise to the scream.

"Hey?! I thought it was just Tapioca's, why are you with me?! I didn't pose because it's unintentional!! This isn't cute, is it?!"

"No, look. Because the orange color suited Mr. Seven Seas and it was so beautiful. I wanted to wait. When I thought about it, I didn't take a picture of Mr. Nanakai. It's okay, it's natural and very cute."

Instead, I prefer this one for not making weird expressions and tricks.

I think Mr. Seven Seas is very good. This isn't about self-admiration or anything, it's only because the subject is good.

... parents will find out it's a lock screen, and let's keep it wallpaper to set it up.

"Ugh... Then I'll take Yangshin's photo too and make it a waiting list!! Why didn't you take it before... it was a blind spot... so I can pose!!"

Mr. Nanakai is confused and impotent with me. [M]

There's no way you can pose for me... In the meantime, I held a tapioca milk tea in my hand like Qihai did earlier...... I tried to stand up normally.

"... Yangshin, pose for some pieces or something. Yes, Piece!!"

"Yeah?! pi...... pieces?!... this... like this?

With a grin on my face, I sign a piece.

Nanakai gave me a slightly frightened look, but as soon as she smiled like she had come up with some kind of prank, she slowly approached me... just like we were next door.

With me in wonder, Mr. Nanakai immediately flipped and turned in the same direction as me, his face came so close that each other's cheeks touched each other.

No, actually, my cheeks are touching me and I feel soft on my cheeks.

And not long after I panicked, Mr. Nanakai reached out with a smartphone. Take the so-called selfie attitude...... the shutter sounds instantly.

"Heh?!"

"Yes, I took it -!! Two-shot ghetto!!"

I was surprised at Nanakai, who took the photo and was stopped, and I was finally able to move. And I accidentally turn my face to Mr. Seven Seas.

Yes... I forgot that there was Nanakai-san's face right next to her so her cheeks touched her, and I tried to spin her face and put Nanakai-san in my sight.

What happened as a result......

My lips are light on Ms. Nanakai's cheeks... really light... but I did... touch them...

Immediately I left, but my lips did still have the same soft cheek feel of Nanakai-san that hit my cheek earlier.

"Huh...?

"Ah..."

Nanakai-san, who suppressed the part where my lips hit me, looks at me. I couldn't say anything either, I just had to look back on Mr. Seven Seas.

Oddly enough, as Senior Sakatsu said... it takes the form of kissing Nanakai-san's cheek from me.

Senior...... I don't know if your statement was flagged or anything...... I can't notice you on the boulder...... No, should I be thanking you here for your seniors? Thank you for flagging me.

We stare at each other silently for a while.

While the noise inside the mall was all I could hear... it was when Mr. Seven Seas approached me again.

Unexpectedly, I hear a familiar voice in my ear.

"Yangxin...? It's strange to see you here. Who's the lady next door?

The voice pulls me back to reality at once. [M]

The voice is too familiar... the voice I can hear from time to time...

Yes... it's my mother's voice.

"Father, Mother......?

"Huh?! Yangshin's father and mother?!"

There were my parents who hung their shopping bags with their hands together… Shishin Tsurumi, their mother, and Yang Tsurumi (Akira), their father.

... Holy shit... Dad and Mom, why are you holding hands and hanging your shopping bag?

"Oh, this? It's been a long time since I've had time to go home with your father, so I've been enjoying my shopping date. I used to do it sometimes...... didn't you know? It's natural to hold hands with someone you like, isn't it? Tonight, by the way, we're gonna cook pig ginger."

"... mother, falling in love with my son is a bit"

As always, the mother decides straightforwardly to express her love for her father without breaking the sharp gaze behind her glasses.

My mother is what we call a coupé. No, I don't want to attribute it to my real mother, but I'm talking about if I dare.

He looks calm at all times, conveying his fondness for his father straight and flirting with both of us.

My father always takes such a straightforward expression of his mother's affection wholeheartedly...... he looks embarrassed to say just outside today.

Maybe it's big that I saw you holding hands. [M]

"So, Yangshin? Who was that lady you were chewing on your cheek earlier? If you force me to chew, I have to scold my son..."

You've been watching from there... Wow... what an excuse... No, let's just say we're already ready to hang out.

"Actually..."

"Chi... no, Yangshin... your mother!! I, I am not forced to!! Um... I, Yangshin, am dating you, it is Ibarado (Bulb) Qihai!!"

Before I say it, Nanakai-san bows on the spot with Tapioka Tea in her hand.

The moment I heard the words... my mother... tilted her neck.

"Um... is it the one who rents her? I'm sure that's unavailable to high school students..."

... How do you know that, Mother? No, well, put that away... I had a girlfriend on the boulder... and it's hard to believe you say a gal girl...

"It's real!! I'm Yangshin, your real girlfriend!!"

But Nanakai-san manages to believe me, so that she can read my mother's words earlier, so that she can connect me with her lover and show her to her mother.

The mother who sees that...... drops the shopping bag she had on the ground with Dosari.

"... what are we talking about here... shall we even go into the coffee shop... oh, but you have tapioca... you can't bring it in and what shall we do... uh, well... what shall we do?

Always a cool mother, rarely visible and upset.

It's so shocking that I have a girlfriend... no, well... sad that I know how that feels while I'm at it. You didn't show any contact with the girl at all. I...

"Mother, calm down... there's got to be some eat-in space ahead of you for a little while, so why don't we talk there? Both of you, is that okay?

"Oh, yeah. What I did was a little messy... sorry. Both of you, is that okay?

... um, I'm supposed to have a tapioca with Mr. Seven Seas. I'm sorry about Nanakai for inviting me...

"Mr. Seven Seas, are you okay? Whatever it is... you can say no... I'll explain when I get home."

"Yeah, I'm coming with you. Besides... it was just great..."

"Just... what?

Nanakai-san just builds up a few moments there... and turns a serious eye towards me.

"Today, what I wanted to ask Yangshin to do was to say hello to your parents for the next holiday..."

... Huh? Say hello to my parents... Nanakai-san... that's what you were thinking...?
