chapter 82

“Morishita-kun? Sorry, I didn’t make an obento for you today . ”

That was what Senpai said to me while on the way to school .

Well, senpai has difficulties waking up so she often doesn’t make obento .

With this and that, I arrived in the classroom and I called out to my neighbour Lela .

“Hey, Lela? What’ll you eat for today’s lunch?”

“Aah, I won’t eat the cafeteria’s food with you today . ”

The day I didn’t have an obento from Abeno-senpai I decided to go have lunch with Lela but that was rejected too .

Well, once in a while I should buy bread at the store… and, while thinking that, the homeroom teacher Serafina opened the clattering door and entered the classroom .

And then, lunch break came .

While I had been eating a pork-cutlet sandwich alone on a bench in the courtyard, I had my breath taken away by a shocking scene .

Abeno-senpai and Lela were going to sit on a bench, lunch should’ve started just a moment ago .

By the way, I’m not noticed by them .

“Fufu, here… it’s a bento . ”

Lela receives a bento from Abeno-senpai and Abeno-senpai gets a sandwich bundle from Lela .

“Hehe, have a sandwich . ”

The two finished exchanging the food that seemed both have home-made them and had ecstatic smiles .

“We really have become friends . ”

“Un . We are friends…”

“It might be strange saying this… I think that it’s good that Linford showed up . ”

“Why?”

“Thanks to that long blond-haired guy, we became friends, that’s why . ”

Aa, a lot of this happened to both of them that I don’t know about the Linford’s case .

And Lela began hitting Abeno-senpai’s shoulder softly .

“There! Take this!”

“What’s wrong?”

“I had always thought about it . Our breathing is perfect, our thinking is the same, as I thought we’re best friends!”

“Yeah, that’s right . ”

“Hey, Kaguya-nyan?”

Did she say Kaguya-nyan!?

“What is it— Lela-pyon?”

Lela-pyon!!?

While blushing they were looking awkwardly at each other .

Not good—

I don’t know exactly where to tsukkomi .

And then, Lela talked while putting Karaage made by Abeno-senpai into her mouth .

“We’ll be friends in future too, right?”

Abeno-senpai nodded .

“Naturally, we’re friends forever”

Friends Forever!!?

Finally, I fell from the bench which I had been sitting on .

While standing up I thought about giving a tsukkomi but I sighed lightly and shook my head left and right .

Well, both of them didn’t have friends and they longed for this kind of relationship .

So, various situations led to this…

It’s not about falling in love but rather yearning for friends .

“It’s fun, isn’t it? Kaguya-nyan . ”

“Yeah . We’ll go shopping next Sunday . ”

“Hehehe . ”

“Ufufu…”

I’m having bad feelings at both of them laughing while looking at each other, but… there aren’t problems with them getting along with each other .

And, I finished eating my sandwich and left the courtyard .

“Listen for a bit! What’s going on with Abeno Kaguya!”

Monday .

As soon as I came to school Lela called out to me .

“What’s wrong?”

“We became friends after this and that happened . ”

I know that and saying it will make it more complicated so I’ll leave it .

“So?”

“That woman… She chose Ramen Gorou for our shopping lunch! I seriously can’t believe it!”

“Wait, seriously?”

It seems, Abeno-senpai made a blunder .

Then, Abeno-senpai entered the classroom and headed straight to me .

“Just a moment, Morishita-kun? It’s about Lela Sakaguchi but what’s wrong with her!?”

And then, they both noticed each other’s existence and started glaring at each other .

“I don’t want to be told that by you . ”

“That’s my line . Not putting garlic in Ramen Gorou… It’s blasphemy that goes beyond meaningless!”

Is that why you’re snapping for!?

That’s completely your personal opinion .

The food there is delicious enough even without garlic .

“Rather, why did you add more garlic!?”

“I always have extra garlic in that store . ”

Erm, Abeno-senpai previously ordered even more that the top was like Mt . Everest… Well, since then she should’ve paid attention to it .

“Do you even understand what I’m saying!?”

“What do you mean?”

“Stimulating food is impossible for me!”

“What exactly?”

While her shoulders were trembling Lela said .

“I have hemorrhoids . ”

Now that I remember, that’s right!

Certainly minced raw garlic is harsh .

“Rather, a shopping lunch at Ramen Goro can’t be serious for two high school girl students! I want a normal girl shopping where we buy things at a stylish shops and then eat lunch at a stylish coffee shop in Daikan’yama!”

“Daikan’yama? Did you just say… Daikan’yama?”

Abeno-senpai had several veins showing on her forehead at those words .

“What’s wrong, Abeno Kaguya?”

“Can you stop saying those since it reminds of my relatives and my sister . Every time Daikan’yama is said… I get appalled . ”

Well, a lot of things happened between her and her family .

So it’s not unreasonable for her to have unpleasant feelings .

“Then, leaving that place aside, I want to talk about love with a friend in a stylish cafe!”

“I want that, too . ”

“Oi, you two want to talk about love interests…? Despite looking like you aren’t interested in?”

“Eh…” “Oh…”

Both of their cheeks got red and looked at me embarrassingly .

Erm, I then noticed .

Judging normally they certainly look like they have no interest in it… But, they clearly had conveyed their feelings to me .

This was a slip of the tongue .

“Ah, no, that statement didn’t happen! Forget about love interests!”

Close .

Just a little more and I would’ve stepped on a landmine .

And, both of them had awkward faces and shook their heads left and right in settlement .

“Then, what kind of shopping is good for you then? What lunch is better than Ramen Gorou?”

While looking about to explode, Abeno-senpai yelled with a desperate feeling .

“Eating in Akihabara’s maid cafe and then shopping in a doujinshi special shops!”

I know she’s a gamer, but… It seems she’s a serious otaku .

Lela is at a loss of words when she heard those words .

It seems that statement is a bit of a shock to a girl who yearns for Daikan’yama .

Lela’s mouth for a while was opening and closing .

And then, Lela shouted to Abeno-senpai like she wouldn’t lose .

“Erm, I too want to go there, but!”

You want to go too!?

Aah, come to think of it she said that she also reads novels .

“Then, then, Akihabara is banned! Aside from that, what also is good!?”

“Eating Horumonyaki at a Yakiton-shop while drinking cola!”

Just like some middle aged guy!

Everything goes for this woman!

Rather, where did the high-moral cool woman setting vanished to!?

“Horumonyaki!? You’ll eat skewered Horumonyaki for lunch!?”

At this statement even Lela is drawn back .

“Anyhow! I don’t want to be something like friends with you anymore!”
