Question, what actions should I take when I notice a problem that is now too much?

Answer, you're not nervous enough to care. Don't worry about it.

... Yeah, sure. I was in a hurry for a moment about something, but now I don't need to rub my mind against Kate. Even though it's my mother's work, we've been eating sweets together every year. I made it this year, so I'm just talking about getting you to put up with it.

"... who are you making excuses for?"

The answer came out, but it wasn't refreshing, so we celebrated Valentine's Day.

× × × ×

Somehow the whole school smells sweet... it wouldn't be my fault. Maiden Game It's Valentine's Day in the world, is it a world where lovely love is available besides the villain's warrant lady? Shall I sneak up on you?

Most importantly, my neighbor's seat is popular. That's the level where you get targeted in a maiden game.

"Sasha, this is from the next class."

"Oh, thank you"

Chocolates that make mountains on their desks. I don't know if it's brother-in-law, fate or friend chocolate, but I'm pretty sure everyone likes it.

It's just going to be hard to eat out of that amount...... there's so much mountain.

"Sasha, do you mind if I take this too?

"Ah, yeah."

Even Primera was surprised when she left the paper bag on her desk, but if you look closely, the paper bag wasn't the one she made with us yesterday... so I guess it's bridging.

Seeing what you didn't say or ask about them, is it fate? Many kids would like to take this opportunity to confess because they are handsome, good young Sarsia.

"…… that?

"What's wrong?

"Oh, yeah...... nothing"

Elle, who was eating the brownies she got from Primera first thing in the morning, seemed to wonder, but I wasn't anywhere with the facts I noticed.

No, it's really now, and if you have time to worry about shards like how to give them yesterday, it's something you should be aware of first.

I wonder if Kate will get her fate, too.

× × × ×

"Well, it's time for us to go."

"See you tomorrow, Maria"

"Yeah, good luck with the club, both of you."

I have to drop off two of my best friends and carry out my after-school plans, which I also welcomed.

I'll give Kate some chocolate... that's all.

"I wonder if you're in the flowerbed"

Basically, we're not making promises. Kate is mostly in the flower bed, just saying I'm going there. Kate is in the flower bed even if I don't go, and even if I do, it can be rare that Kate isn't there. Well, it's about a once in ten odds.

If it's not limited to today, what should I do with this chocolate... I can't believe I got there within my head.

"─ ─ Ahhh! Would you please accept this………………………!!

A nervously trembling voice. I rubbed it all over the place, and I caught it. But that's why I know exactly how serious that thought is.

"Ah..."

What you can see from me is the back of a girl in uniform. And a decent Kate face.

Whoever sees it, this is that... he would be in the middle of handing over his fate.

Well, I was thinking about it as a possibility, and I was kind of anticipating it. I don't need to find out that Kate is in the flowerbed, and I don't want anyone to see her... I don't think there's any more situation to tell her about her secret love affair.

That's why......... yeah, I feel sorry for watching. Guilt solicits, doesn't it? Luckily the girl hasn't noticed yet, will she come back later......

"…, eh"

…………

Oh, Kate and I had eyes...... yeah, this one's awkward over here too. Something ticklish or embarrassing about a childhood acquaintance being confessed?

In the meantime, send Kate an eye and a hand signal before leaving the spot and hiding herself in the shadow of a school building where she can't reach her voice. If a girl comes over here, she won't notice because it's a shadow, and she won't hear a voice, so she won't have to steal the rest of the confession.

"Well... you're right"

I have a kid who likes Kate...... I take that for granted. I can't believe she likes Kate, that she has so many eyes to see that she even thinks she looks great.

Because I'm the one who knows better about Kate than anyone else.

I just don't know, and this could have happened in the beginning. Because I've never heard of Valentine getting chocolate, but I'm not a man who hears people's feelings without darkness.

"─ Maria"

"Huh... Kate, is that enough?

I don't know exactly how long it's been, because I was confused, but I don't think it's been five minutes, maybe.

I don't know the general answer to how much time you need to confess, but the fact that you came looking for me... I guess that's what I mean.

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

"I'm the one with the bad timing."

"That's subtle. I didn't plan on coming to the flowerbed today."

"Really?

"So if it weren't for that time, it would have been over with Maria."

That…… makes me feel unspeakably subtle. Does Kate feel the same way, she looks uncommonly troubled.

If it weren't for her, there would have been something I was worried about, and when it happened, the chocolate I had prepared would have nothing but fit in my stomach. I just can't honestly be happy with the timing.

"So you're leaving already today?

Kate has a bag on her shoulder. Maybe you're going to look for me and go straight home. You should have noticed when you weren't wearing work clothes, but that's all you're surprised about?

"What do you want Maria to do?

"Eh?"

"You wanted me to stay over there, didn't you?

"That is……"

I'm finding out...... will I find out then? There's only so much reason for me to go to the flowerbed as to go see Kate.

However, after seeing that sight, it's hard to say that I'm here to give you the chocolate. I thought it wasn't weird last night, but I know that Valentine's Day isn't just about love.

I never felt so ashamed to send my emotions on chocolate.

"Eh..."

My gaze is lost, my face has a fever of its own.

The girl earlier must have been a lot more nervous than me. If you think so, your respect for a girl who doesn't even know her face is going to be kansted.

I didn't expect my heart to overexert so much just to give my thankful chocolate now to someone who has exposed both failure and success from an early age. The back of my ear is loud and my voice is far away from earlier.

"Maria......?

"Eh! I'll give you this!!

"……… What?

To my appearance, I pressed the chocolate removed from my bag at high speed on Kate's chest, who was worried and tried to peek into her face.

Kate was circling her eyes at the sudden eccentricity, but I'm not where I am right now.

"Ah......, yeah, all the time"

My head cools rapidly and I look back at my actions. It seems to be a lie that you were in such a hurry before you acted, now you are too calm and hard. Why do people broaden their horizons after they act, because they're in a hurry? I understand one person, but I'm not convinced. This world is a maiden game, but I can't save or reset it!

"This......... chocolate?

"…… well, for once"

It's Valentine's Day, so there's nothing but chocolate about presents at this time...... and I wanted to hit eight, but it's just not ugly.

Just don't make too many observations, Kate. Because I thought it was an easy win until I packed it in the box, but enough to admit I lost the moment the wrapping started. I thought it was pretty clever, but I found that wrapping is more tasteful and polite than dexterity.

…………

"Ah, the... wrapping is that, but the contents are fine. I made it with Primera, so I can guarantee the flavor!

So be quick, you're going to cry over a public execution.

I was afraid of Kate's reaction to not saying anything, and when I turned my gaze away... this guy was listening to me or not, he cleverly unwrapped the ribbon and opened the wrapper. My more clever fingers took out the contents without scratching the wrapping, and I couldn't help but notice how awesome it was.

"What, hey...... Huh!?

"Ah, delicious"

It doesn't come with a fork or anything because I was originally going to have it eaten in my room. I don't know if she knew that, but Kate carried the chocolate to one mouthful with her fingers without any hesitation.

Lick off the powder on the edge of your mouth, only one thought. Still, I know best not to be the man to flatter or lie.

"Really?

"Mmm, I like this."

As the saying goes, Kate, who quickly finished her meal, put the empty box in her own bag. If it was empty, I could have taken it home, but for some reason they refused, so I didn't go in any further.

"Welcome, it was delicious."

"Yeah, thanks"

"So let's go home."

"Yeah......... you know, Kate"

"Hmm?"

"…… yeah, it's nothing"

I was just a little curious about what happened to that girl's thoughts, but I didn't ask because I knew she wouldn't get the answer back.

Only then... I couldn't see anything like it in the bag that I saw just a little bit. I thought that was the result, though I didn't hang up a bit.

"I'm expecting White Day."

"I thought you would say that. You don't have to worry. I know what Maria likes."

"... I don't know, I'm happy but I regret it"

"What?"

Because if that's the answer Kate gave, I'm sure that's the best.

I turned my consciousness to my conversation with Kate so that I could forget the hindsight of my trembling voice.
