This is slightly longer than usual.
______________________________
Kouyou is as self-important as always today too.
Study group!
That is, playing for students, flirting for lovers, teaching for teachers, torture for parents. It’s a magical meeting that could mean many different various things depending on the partners you are with!
After school, I was in a cafe with Koyomi.
“So, this is……..”
“Ko, Kouyou…..?………Ne-, this is too near…..”
“Ah, I’m sorry……….”
It seems like I was too close. I repositioned my seat about 50cm away.
“No, that’s not what I meantー”
“Hm? …Could the explanation be hard to understand?”
“No, that’s not it too……”
“So, what is it?”
“Usually, when someone is studying with a lover, when they got closer, you should have said, 『So, Sorry』more bashfully while moving away right. You’re supposed to cuddle up to me while turning beet red. I know you want to flirt with me.”
“So-, Sorry…”
“No, it will be too much if you act that way here. I would just feel guilty instead of flirting here.”
Even though I’ve gone through a lot of trouble to give you the reaction you wanted…….
You are too demanding….
Or rather……
“Look here, this is a study group in the first place right? There’s no need for us to flirt right?”
“No no, in the case of a study group with a lover, it’s a magical meeting that turns into a flirting session.”
“Who is the one who asked to be teached?”
“………….It’s me”
“And who is the one who was asked?”
“It’s Ko, Kouyou.”
“Then who should you obey?”
“It’s you.”
“That is correct, very well. Let us continue then.”
“Ah, yes. Thanks.”
『I’’ve brought you an extra-large strawberry chocolate parfaitー！』
“Ah, thank you very much. Please put it over there.”
“Oi”
“No, naturally it would be weird to not ask for anything right?”
“You asked for a drink, didn’t you. And if you are going to order something, why don’t you ask me.”
“No, I thought that might be a hindrance to our studying session or something like that.”
“I’d rather eat it in the middle of the session.”
“…………..So-, I’m sorry.”
Then the gap was made wider like that.
“Like I said, stop reacting in that way. Also, you’re too obstinate in this huh.”
“Fufu………….sorry sorry. It’s just a joke.”
The gap between us was returned to normal.
“How niceー, give me one mouthful please!”
“Ehh.”
“Wow, I’m terrible at po-ker fa-ces~!”
“I won’t give you the parfait no matter what.”
“What’s with that tenacity…”
“Then why don’t Koyomi order too?”
“I don’t want toー, one piece is definitely too much for meー”
“Hmm. Then I’ll eat for your share too…..Sorry! ”
“Okay~” …….clatter-clatter
“I’ll have two more of these same parfaits. And one of this crepe and one of that crepe.”
“I got itー!” …..clatter-clatter
“Uwaa, you don’t know how to hold back huh. Or rather, isn’t this too much? Won’t you get fat?”
“I do some weight training everyday, I run 2-3 times a week too you see.”
“So that’s why you are fast on your feet….”
“Well yeah……. Hey, if you aren’t going to eat the parfait then why don’t you go study? I’ll teach you the parts you don’t understand.”
“Ehー, you ordered a lot just a while ago, one bite should be okaay right?”
“No, that can’t do”
“Why!?”
“Because if I give you one bite from the parfait………….I can’t face the parfait anymore!”
“Ehh? What!? Is parfait that religious for you!?”
“At the very least, for me it is. Or rather, you could have just ordered. Do you have any particular reason?”
If the extra-large one is too big, she could have just ordered the usual one, to ask for a mouthful no matter how you put it……………….
“That’s not it, you see………I’m actually holding myself back quite a lot, but even if I just eat a small one I won’t be able to stop anymore…”
“What are you talking about?”
“Di-, I’m talking about dieting….! I’m more or less a girl too, right? Worrying about your figure is, or rather, it’s already too late once you get fat.”
“Heeー, is that so.”
What, so it’s just that…..
Fuuhh………To deny yourself a parfait just because of that, you still have a long way to go.
“Whoa! I don’t think it matters though!……..Could it be? Is Koyomi the type of person that don’t care about her figure?!”
“No, that’s a bit ……… of a stretch, but I’m not going to let people think I’m fat.”
“Apologize. Apologize to everyone in the whole country who is chubby.”
“You can tell a lot about a person’s personality by their chubbiness. I think it’s really good.”
“I think Kouyou is being too overly specific……Then why?”
“No it’s fine, if Koyomi is fine with it then it’s all good…”
“Ehー, I’m curious so please tell meー”
“How should I put it, I think it’s a boring way to live.”
“Eh?”
“I was just wondering if living like that is fun.”
“W-, why….?”
“But you are forcing yourself right? Even though you actually wanted to eat it. That way of life is boring. If you want to eat it, then just eat it. If a grandma says it then it still makes some sense, but you are still young, you should live freely.”
“But……..Even though you ask me to live a fun life, Kouyou does nothing but sleep anyways. You think your future might be at risk which is why you are studying for the exams right? ”
“No no, I don’t have that splendid of a reason. I just want to sleep at class peacefully without being bothered by the teacher.”
“But even so….”
“To begin with, the word ‘easy’ is in enjoyment sometimes right? Those type of people who told you not to run to something easy. Then won’t it be as if you ran away from fun things? It is not easy to have fun, you know.”
“What do you mean?”
“Someone who sacrifices the present to enjoy themselves in the future, forgetting about how to have fun, is just no good. I don’t understand them at all. They are using studying as an excuse to run away from fun things. You actually want to have fun, but it’s actually pretty hard to do so when you try it. After all, if you study and get results, your path will be opened but people who do something they enjoy won’t get the same benefit. In fact, I’m worried that I might become like that to the point where the road ahead seems pitch dark. I was saying that you should not do that. Generally those type of people are the ones that couldn’t enjoy their life in the future anyways.”
“Why?”
“That’s how it is right? Because they don’t know how to have fun. Nothing was resolved because they were scared. Those people can be happy in their relative ways, but they can’t have fun. That much I’m sure of.”
“Back when we were a child, we could enjoy everything to our heart’s content, I believe that’s because we believed that it’s our duty to do so. But we began to doubt that when our ages reach the double-digit. We begin to feel guilty when we have fun.”
“The ones who lost kept on running. Studying when you are 10, getting used to corporate life at the age of 20, having a small kid at the age of 30, started getting old at 40, seeing your child’s happiness at 50, or something like that. Then you run, run and run. You continue running. The time when you can enjoy something is when you are old and don’t have anything to lose. Isn’t this ridiculous. I can’t even run for 5 seconds without running out of breath, and my memories won’t be as good as they are now. Can you even have fun like that?”
“I think it’s better for a person to spend his life desperately having fun than for a guy to make a fool of himself trying to justify his actions.”
“What is Koyomi? About the parfait, not only that. Are you going to keep holding yourself back from now on? I’m sure there are ways that you could do this instead of restricting yourself like exercising. For now……………….at the very least, isn’t it late already?”
“?”
“There’s enough time after we eat right? ……..If you want to become slimmer………….What will you do?”
“……………………………………Excuse me!”
“Yes~, you are welcome~” ……stutter
“I’ll have this extra-large parfait!”
“Okayー⤴︎‼︎” …….stutter
“Fufu………..It’s nice right?”
“Un!”
Mm-hmm. Holding yourself is definitely not good as I thought.
“Hmmー! This is delicious!”
After that, we completely forgot about studying, and went home after we talked for a while.
“Ummーwho is the one who will pay?”
“Aah, I’ll pay.”
“Eh! I’m really sorry for this Kouyou…”
“I was aware that this kind of thing was supposed to be paid for by the man. Or rather, won’t it be embarrassing if I say I wanted to split the bill after I said I’ll pay? It will be far more satisfying to use this money that I don’t plan on spending on anything important anyways on a girlfriend.”
“Etto, Then….Sorry. I’ll take you up on your offer…”
“Un. Don’t worry about it.”
We didn’t do anything in particular after that, and she went home after a while.
It was a fun study group on its own right.
