"Rain, come here."

Walk a little further and wave so Tania can come quickly.

Like Canade the other day, I'm hanging out with Tania shopping...

Again, no one else is here today.

It's not a good time, it's never convenient for everyone...

It's like we showed each other.

Well, you think too much.

I don't know what that means.

"By the way, what are you buying today?

"It's an accent."

"Acce...... oh, accessories"

For a moment, I didn't know what it was about.

Sometimes it's called a man, but I never got a chance to get an accessory.

It's something I haven't had too much chance to touch, so I was about to forget about being itself.

Chasing after Tania with that in mind...

I came to the corner where the dewstores lined up, losing as much.

"That's a lot of stuff."

Rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings… and more.

Various ornaments are sold.

It was not just the ornaments, but also the daily groceries.

And small items in the books... lots of products lined up.

Looks like a market.

"Whoa, this book is"

Find the book you care about and take it.

That's the fairy tale I used to call you when you were little.

"I miss you...... you've read this many times. The price is...... whoa, it's affordable. Okay, this."

"Hey, Rain..."

Tania was looking at me with her jitsu eyes if she noticed.

That's right.

Even though I'm in a position to go shopping with you, I'd be in a bad mood if I left Tania alone.

"Oh, I'm sorry. With…"

"Ugh. I'm disqualified as a man to leave the lady alone."

"I'm reflecting..."

Put the book back and watch Tania.

"Uh... what accessories does Tania buy?

"You haven't decided specifically yet, have you? Actually, look... and I need Rayne's opinion."

"Mine? But I don't know anything about accessories."

"I don't care if you're familiar with it or something. Well... I'd like to hear Rayne's opinion. Opinion on whether it suits me or not, with Rain's senses."

"If that's all right with you, I'll help you."

"Beh, I'm not worried about Rain's taste or anything, so hey!? It's just that Rain is the only decent guy around... so I just want to know what Rain has to say! I didn't mean to."

"Oh, I know."

"... if you're honestly convinced, that would be a mockery. You blunt Tamer."

I'm not sure about the title, but one more thing.

"Anyway! Let me know what Rayne has to say. What kind of accessories do you think I'd like?

"Hmm, right..."

It's a serious responsibility to have to choose Tania accessories.

If you choose something weird, Tania could get hurt and...

I want to pick something that you'll like.

Good luck choosing!

――――――――――

"Hmm."

Rayne was choosing accessories with a serious face.

You look serious, like you did in the fight, and you don't have to be that serious, but you're going to stick with me.

But, well...

"... I'm glad to hear that."

Someone I like picks accessories for me seriously.

Nice situation.

As a maiden in love, my breasts get pounded.

... Is this how he felt the other day when Canade dated Rayne?

Restless, look at Rayne's face over and over again...

I get embarrassed and I turn away, but I quickly put my gaze back on.

I repeat such unsure behavior.

I can't explain it.

Because I think that's what 'love' is.

What... I'm so ashamed of you...

If Rain finds out I'm thinking about this, I could be dead.

"Tania."

"Hiaaaaaaa!!!?

Unexpectedly, my voice turns upside down.

"What's going on?

"Hey, it's nothing!? Yeah, nothing."

"I don't care how you look at it. It looks like everything is... uh... are you okay?

"I'm fine! I'm fine at all! More than that, what's wrong?

Forcefully missed the point.

He assumed that he didn't want to continue this story, and Rayne reverts to it.

"I've chosen something that looks good on Tania... how about this?

What Rayne offered was Ruby's earrings.

The red gemstone was brilliant and clear.

"Beautiful..."

"You seem to like it. Good."

"But this looks expensive...? The price is...... what, so cheap!?

Ruby's earrings were thirty silver coins.

I thought I'd do about one gold coin, but that didn't happen.

"What do we do?

"Right, um... ok, I've decided on this!

Copy that.

"Huh? Huh?

When Rayne gave him a soft look, he gave the outdoor store owner the money to buy the earrings.

Today, I'm bringing my wallet, too.

There is a lot of money.

And yet, why...?

He seemed to have guessed my doubts, and Rayne tells me to be a little lit up.

"At times like this, it would be something a man would give you, wouldn't it?

"... Rain..."

"Well, uh... let me dress up once in a while. Daily thanks and thanks."

"Thanks"

I laugh and receive earrings.

And I just wore it.

"Uh... what do you think?

"It suits you. It's beautiful."

A very simple compliment...

But I was so happy to think that sounded like Rayne.
