Who seeks answers, and gives answers.
How do others guide impending choices?
During school hours before the start of the home room, students were scattered throughout the school giving gifts to the opposite sex.
It's shadowed on campus, it's largely in the courtyard.
Or, as a matter of course, some handed it over at the lift.
Change into your clothes and climb the stairs, passing by the student opposite you at the stairwell.
I couldn't have done anything rude as others would have seen, but I just asked him how he was while passing by at the edge of his gaze.
... definitely a male and female student I've seen in two pairs next door.
With the package given to the boy student by the girl student, the boy student shamelessly grips the hand.
It was precisely this moment that a new couple was born at Sakurano Hill School.
Up the stairs, a few students may be friends of the same class, and when they see the results, they approach the dance floor with two people in the celebration mood.
It's a festival, right here.
Way and mouth together, I want to cover our ears for some reason.
Why Way?
Most students talk so much that they have the illusion that it's a noisy student's mouth.
Beyond the passing back, a soft drink tournament will now be called a toast.
There may be two pairs, and there may be a lot of noise about this couple.
Slowly open the door as you go to the front of the classroom, feeling like you've seen a decisive scene since the morning.
I am accustomed to seeing more noisy classrooms for just a moment, and being quickly distracted.
I could not see Shizukuishi who expected to be indoors, and Kirazaka sat in her seat and immersed herself in reading.
Even if you're in the classroom, you don't blend into the classroom air.
Only she sat there wrapped in different air.
……
The gaze was already scattered, and she proceeded with no inner grin to her unusual appearance, even though it was a special event.
For a moment, I thought I could see a different Kira Saka.
That slight expectation vanished unabated.
When I noticed that I was approaching my seat in the classroom, Kirasaka closed the book and smiled and turned her eyes towards me.
Good morning, Shinrya-kun.
"... good morning"
Put your luggage aside and breathe one breath into the safe haven in the classroom you arrived at, and you'll be able to think before you meet Kira Slope.
There is no doubt that the development that awaits ahead is the same as that of the chairman.
However, what is unexpected is what Kirazaka will do.
Even the chairman showed unusual wisdom.
That's why Kirazaka's reaction is also very horrible.
Because she enjoys watching my reaction, I wonder if I can follow those glasses.....
And for some reason, there was a move next door to focus on ideas that were not necessary.
Kirazaka also grabs a school-designated bag and gets it inside.
When I showed the appearance of looking for something, I took out the orange wrap.
Are you okay?
Senpai's appearance this morning, who brought two things back to mind.
However, I was worried that Kirasaka took out only one of them and put the bag back to its original position.
……
I was staring at what Kirasaka thought about the package that I took out, but as soon as I turned my gaze to this side, I put the package on the edge of my desk and showed it to me as if nothing had happened.
"Yes, it's a present from me."
"Thank you...."
"What? I feel like I'm surprised."
A glance at the placed package.
Beautifully wrapped, but warm enough to know that I did all the work myself....
No... I was just a little too scared of Kira Saka.
"Nothing, thank you."
"Yes, you're welcome."
Saying thanks to Kirazaka, she immediately resumed reading with a small smile on her face.
... is that it?
I stopped thinking about her light sequence of thoughts because I had seen her reactions on the way to school, the main gate, and inside the school building until I got to this classroom.
However, I can't apologize for leaving what I received on the spot, so I checked the whole thing once I took it carefully.
... I told you I wanted you to have a taste, but I wonder what you made.
I feel the weight is lighter than the chairman's paper bag or heartless.
Maybe it's a small one.
Cookies or raw chocolate?
Probably not a kind of cake.
I was worried about whether to open it or not, and Kirazaka turned to me again.
"What are you doing? Eat quickly."
Ah, you're eating now.
"It's not boring to be reacted to in places I don't see."
"That's right...."
I was restarting reading, so I thought I'd enjoy myself after that.
After all, your thoughts are ahead of everyone else.
I finally saw her face for the first time today.
The orange wrapper was carefully opened, and there was a brown paper box under it. When the lid was opened, six small pieces of confectionery were wrapped in white wrapper.
When she took the wrap off with her fingertips and carefully carried it into her mouth, she finally understood what she had made.
"Caramel...."
"Yes, raw caramel chocolate flavor"
The moment I put it in my mouth, the bitter chocolate flavor spreads, and afterwards, the caramel that seems to melt sweetly spreads to my mouth.
... it's delicious.
It's delicious enough to regret it.
And Kirasaka must be confident in the taste, watching my reaction, waited for my words while raising my tongue.
"... delicious"
"I made it, of course, didn't I?"
Fufu, you can almost hear the sound of your nose snoring, and your chest is stretched out, and you can't help but notice the clear slope.
Of course, I knew you were an all-purpose girl with family skills, but I wanted you to shine a little more.
Because the animated cool characters I've been doing late-night were illuminated when I complimented them.
That's me, the man who's so inspired by animation.
As soon as I tried to bring the second caramel to my mouth because I was regretful, a small white hand from Kirasaka jumped out in front of my sight to control it.
"There are hidden elements that make it tastier."
"Hidden elements?... I'm not the one who gets caught up in the pattern that kids love. Please tell me."
Kirazaka said in her hand that she wanted me to give her my hand, so I put the caramel in her right hand on her palm.
Just like I did when I ate it, they ripped off the package and picked it off with her pretty fingertips.
"Open your mouth, this is something you can't really enjoy."
"I doubt it....."
But if you say so, you have no choice but to follow.
I opened my mouth a little and looked at her movements in a blind sight, and I saw her smiling with her eyes closed for a moment.
"Here,” "Ahhn."
……
Kirazaka deliberately shouted a loud voice so loud that the class students could hear it. She put a grain in my mouth and showed it.
As soon as you feel the chocolate flavor spreading over your tongue, you close it and look around unexpectedly.
Students in the class are turning their gaze at Kirazaka's puzzles, girls are looking warmly at our actions and talking about hissy, and boys are staring at us as they are cursed to death.
... what is the hidden element?
Bitter has really become bitter to the comfort of the class.
As expected, Kirazaka once again asked the same question as before, looking at me and asking the girl next door to say a word.
"How's it tasty?"
"... it's delicious."
"Yes... I'm glad."
To be honest, when I express my feelings, Kirazaka reacts differently.
There is no change in the position of the hand on the right cheek.
But her expression looked like a girl of her own age, and she smiled with a bright smile that she didn't normally show.
... you can't even complain if you show such a smile.
Still, the second one was probably better than the first one.
It could be a hidden element, a magical element caused by a gap with normal life.
