Living together – Day 10
The promised day
I enjoyed a too happy bath and went back to my room. After that, I had a relaxing time and it was time for bed. Tomorrow is Saturday, so I should go to bed early.
Yes, I had an important promise to the president that I must not forget. It was an invitation to go see a movie with the self-proclaimed hobbyless president. So, tomorrow, I will spend some time with the president.
“……Time to go to bed.”
Just as I was laying down on my bed, my phone rang with a “beep”. I checked the screen and saw that it was Lida.
“Goodnight kiss, yet?”
We’ve been doing it every day lately. Not today, I guess. I headed for Lida’s room. When I knocked and entered, I found a very thinly dressed Lida lying on her bed.
When she noticed my presence, she welcomed me with both hands in the air. Apparently, she wants me to come in bed with her. What is this, a loving couple from a Hollywood movie? Oh well.
“Lida, I’m going to sleep as soon as we kiss. Lately I’ve been having trouble sleeping because I’ve been kissing you too long before bed. …… Please, just once.”
“No ♡”
— And, while refusing, Lida kisses me forcefully.
We hugged each other as we did – and spent an hour or so kissing sweetly, as we always do. …… Oh, I’m sure I’ll lose sleep again.

[Saturday, July 16]
A strange sound woke me up.
Apparently, I had fallen into a deep sleep. I lifted my heavy head and turned off the alarm on my phone, which sounded like the sonar of a submarine. Just then, there was a message from the president.
“Kamishiro-kun, today is the promised day, isn’t it? I’m looking forward to it. I’ll pick you up at ten o’clock.”
“Hiyasada-senpai ……, you’re coming all the way to pick me up? It’s kind of a bad idea.”
The time is 8:30.
I have two hours before the president arrives, so I have to persuade Lida first.
When I left my room, there was no sign of Lida.
I checked Lida’s room to see if she was still sleeping, but there was no sign of her. Maybe she’s in the …… bathroom. It was when I sat down on the chair that I thought she would show up eventually.
“Huh, that was a nice morning bath.”
“Geez, Lida!”
“……Huh!”
After her bath, she was wearing only a bath towel. For a moment, she turned away, but then she quickly turned around.
“Hey, why aren’t you dressed?”
“Umm ……. It’s Saturday, so I thought you’d still be asleep. You’re an early riser, Oojirou.”
“Well, I have some business to attend to.”
“Oh, ……, you have something to do today?”
“Sorry, I’m meeting someone else.
“Is that a …… male friend?”
“… That is …”
“Easy to understand. That response, it’s a girl.”
“How did you know that?”
“Okay, that’s it.”
“You’ve got to be kidding me! Lida!”
“Hmm, I see. I guess it’s either Azusa-chan or Suzu-san.”
“!!”
Oh no, oh no. …… Lida’s powers of deduction are unbelievable. It’s like a detective Sherlock Holmes. …… No, well, she can usually guess, but it’s a little scary when it’s revealed so clearly.
“It’s okay.”
“You forgive me?”
“Yeah, once in a while. I have some business with a man.”
“Huh ………….”
“It’s okay. I have a meeting with my grandfather.”
“Oh, come on, you scared me.”
I was in a panic for a second!!!
I wonder if she’s going somewhere with Sergei. I’m a little curious about that, but I’ll ask her when I get back.
“So we’ll be separated today.”
“Sorry. But tomorrow we’ll go to the movies together, we promised.”
“Yeah. We have some time left. …… Can you spoil me until then ……?”
Lida looked up at me, as if she were a child who wanted to be spoiled by her parents. …… I couldn’t resist that kind of look.
“Let’s recharge our batteries for when we get separated today.”
“Yes! I’m going to go change into my clothes now♡”
“Oh, yeah.”
Once she’s in a good mood like that, there’s nothing I can do but love her! …… All right, all right, let’s brace ourselves.
