"Hello. Isn't it nice to meet your friend...?"

The clerk who came to collect the dishes said so to Arisa with a friendly smile.

Aisha, Ayuka, and Chiharu each say hello and thank you.

"She's starting out, isn't she?"My name is Hiromi, the manager.I'm always looking after you, Yu-san. "

A neutral-looking man said that to Arisa.

Arisa also smiled and gave a small speech.

"Yes, it's nice to meet you.... I'm sorry to bother you today."

No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

And then, Hiromi's gaze naturally sucked into Arisa's left hand.

There was a beautiful ring embedded in the finger.

I could tell at a glance that Hiromi, who was not so familiar with jewelry, was a good quality product.

The ring on my left ring finger - I can't believe I don't know what that means.

"Is that a... engagement ring?"

When Hiromei asked that.....

Arisa softly put her right hand on her left hand and gave a smile.

And then I said, "Oh, did you notice?I didn't mean to show you anything at all, did I? "she nodded with a small expression.

"Yeah, well... yes. I got...... on White Day."

"...... hehe"

I see, Hiromi was convinced in her heart.

It became clear why Yutoshi needed the money.

"... do your parents know about that?"

And if you are a well-minded adult, you will naturally ask questions.

The high school student's stupid couple is half joking, and if she just talks about her engagement... she can finish with a bitter smile.

However, if you give high quality jewelry as an engagement ring...... then you can't do it with a bitter smile.

It's too heavy a story.

In some cases, Arisa was embarrassed by Hiromei's thought of giving some advice to Yuzu or giving a report to his mother....

But for that, he said in a firm tone.

"Yes, of course... political marriage, so..."

"S-Strategy...."

What, really?

With that face, Hiromi turned her gaze to another Yusuke's friends, Yayuki and Chiharu.

Meanwhile, Yayuki and Chiharu looked at each other... and smiled bitterly.

Well, it's not unusual, is it?

"It's common."

In fact, it's not that common, but it's also true that it's not surprising, so Yayuki and Chiharu replied that way.

And I was shocked in my heart.

(No... it's too exposed...)

(You don't have to appeal that much...)

Of course, I didn't bother to say it.

”Heh... amazing”

Meanwhile, Hiromi uttered a word of admiration.

It was a surprise for the common sense of the world that I didn't know well, and at the same time an admiration for Yutoshi's lover who was riding in with the engagement ring on.

Thank you for your continued support.

“Yes, please.... Takasekawa-san?"

”Ahahah... you're going fast”

Arisa replied while loosening her mouth a bit.

Meanwhile, Yayxiang and Chiharu looked at Arisa's face and smiled bitterly.

Now, when Arisa and the others left, and when Yasushi's working hours were over.....

Fiancée, you're so beautiful.

Hiromei said that to Yusuke, who had finished changing from uniform to clothes.

Meanwhile, Yoshinori tilts her neck.

”... did I say my fiancée?”

"I wore an engagement ring, and I said so myself. It's a political marriage."

Is that so?

Yusuf nodded unaware that Arisa was fitting the engagement ring.

It is not desirable to listen to it, but it is not necessary to hide it.

As a result, Yusan's response was a little dull.

Is it true that a political marriage is a political marriage?

"Yeah, well... about this time last year?"By the way... we didn't even like each other at first. "

Yusan briefly explained the two's familiarity.

Of course, the cumbersome conversation about Arisa's family situation, such as disguised engagement, is omitted.

”I see... then you're really going to get married”

Of course.

Without hesitation, Yusan said so and nodded.

Then Yusuke smiles a little bitterly.

"Ahh... I knew it. Do you think I'm going fast?"

"No, that's fine.... if you think about it, Aiyu-san was like that, too"

Yusan's parents, Kazuya and Sae-yu, also met - it was a political marriage.

Hiromi is an old friend of Aiyu.

"Ah, yeah, but..."

"... what is it?"

"No..."

Hiromi's expression had a slightly lost colour.

Should I say it or not?

After roaring for a while, she said to Yu String.

”Maybe, but she's... a strong monopolist?”

Huh?

Yusuke unexpectedly shouted at the unexpected words of Hirobei.

That said, Yusuke also knows well that Arisa is never like a saint or a saintly lady.

"That's... well, sure." There's something like that. "

There is a bit of selfishness and a strong desire to monopolize.

But Yusuke thought it was cute...

"... maybe Yusuke is stronger than I thought."

"Is that so?... how do you know that?"

Yusuke also knows that his fiancé is not without faults.

But it's a little irritating when it's said too badly.

When Yutaka, who was a little grumpy, asked, Hiromei scratched her hair.

"I mean... you've been wearing an engagement ring, right?"

"... is there something wrong?"

"It's weird... why do you think I've been wearing an engagement ring in the first place?"

"... isn't it stylish?"

When Yu-Shun said so, Hiromei shook her head from side to side.

"I know that's true, but... maybe it's a deterrent."

"... Containment?"

"This man belongs to me!"That's why I've been fitting it in to appeal to you, I'm sure. "

In other words, for the girl at the end of the part-time job, Yu-shin already had a lover of her own, no, her fiancée, and she had fitted her engagement ring to show her intimacy with Yu-shin...

If you ask me, it's an impossible story.

"All that's left to do... maybe, but maybe I'm feeling anxious."

"... are you worried? Do you want me to cheat on you?"

”Hmm, well, rather than that, you might throw it away?”

Yusan accidentally tilted her head.

Of course, Yutoshi hasn't missed out on other girls.

And I usually whisper love to Arisa.

Hmmm, I'm not trying to make Arisa anxious.

"Even if a man doesn't do anything else, it's common for a woman to be more anxious on her own."

I wonder if that's the case, Yutsu unexpectedly leans her neck.

"... do you mean from past experience?"

"Well, that's right.... I've been stabbed before."

That's probably because you tripled.

Yusan looked at Hirobei with her half-eye.

Meanwhile, Hiromei's hands twitched.

"Well, that's what it is." Be careful.Because such a child who feels easy to store will explode suddenly.If you think something is wrong, please contact me at any time. "

"Hah... well, at that time, yes."I will discuss it with you. ”

In response to words from seniors in life, Yusuke made such an appropriate return.
