Valentine’s Day SS Kenichi and Kotone
(TLN:Kotone POV, I think***)
–After school.
The entrance to the school is crowded with students leaving for school, and those who have club activities are hurriedly preparing for them.
Kenichi and I don’t have club activities, so we usually go home right away.
And today, Valentine’s Day, I’m going to give Kenichi some chocolate at my house.
So I was going to go home early and get ready ………….
That’s right, I was planning to …….
“…… It’s suspicious. He’s definitely hiding something.”
Now, instead of going home, I’m sneaking around and following Kenichi to make sure he doesn’t find me.
Why am I doing this?
The reason was lunch break…
“Here, Kenichi. Here’s a present from me.”
“Towa’s gift to me…..? It’s a very unusual thing to do…….”
“Kenichi doesn’t need me to explain it to him, right?”
“Well, ……. I’m sure that Towa is the right person to ask. There’s no need to worry about it spreading to others.”
“I don’t have any friends. …… It makes me sad to say it myself.”
“Anyway, I did give it to …….”
“By the way, does Wakamiya know about this ……?”
“Well, we were together. But I don’t think she’ll tell you. I have a message for you.”
“…… message?”
“She said “If you make Kotone cry, I won’t forgive you.””
“……………… Oh, come on!”
–I happened to overhear a conversation like this.
But I didn’t hear everything clearly.
So I don’t know what they were talking about.
At first, I was thinking of a different person …… because Tokiwagi-kun had given him a letter.
“I knew it!” I also thought …….
But I could tell from the tone of their conversation that it was different.
But at the same time, I also knew that it was not good for me.
As a result……, here we are.
I checked for Kenichi’s figure from the shadows to make sure I didn’t lose sight of him ………….
Where is he!?
Where!?
I was so careful…….!
I hurriedly followed Kenichi’s footsteps.
I looked everywhere for him, but I couldn’t find him.
In the end, I looked around for about ten minutes, and when I came to the back of another building where there was less traffic, my ears picked up a familiar voice.
Thank God I found him ……!
I quickly went over to Kenichi’s location…
“Kato-kun! Please go out with me, if you would like!”
When I heard those words, I couldn’t get in front of Kenichi.
“I don’t want to hear it.”
“I am afraid to listen.”
Because Kenichi is so popular, I always feel uneasy.
So I covered my ears and waited patiently for the exchange to end.
I thought it would take a while, but it soon came to an end.
A cute girl runs past me.
It was only for a moment, but the girl seemed to be crying.
“Well…….”
Not good!
I heard Kenichi’s voice, and I hurriedly hid in the shadows and crouched down so that he wouldn’t see me.
As if in response to the sound of approaching footsteps, my heart began to race.
Suddenly, a gentle and familiar sensation came to my head.
As if attracted by the sensation, I slowly looked up.
“Here, Kotone, let’s go home!”
The smiling face of the person I love came into my sight.
“…… Kenichi, how long have you been aware of it?”
“Hmm? What are you talking about?”
Kenichi folded his hands behind his head and stretched his body while yawning.
From the looks of it, I don’t think he’s going to tell me anything…….
I’m in love with him…….
But I’m still curious about the girl who confessed to him earlier.
“The girl who confessed to you earlier……. was a very pretty girl, wasn’t she?”
“You’re probably right. But you know what, Kotone?”
“…… What?”
“The only one I have in mind is Kotone. I’m not going to fall in love with anyone else, no matter how beautiful they are. So…”
He turned to me and gently patted my head.
“You can give me chocolate later. I’ve been looking forward to it all day!”
I can’t help but fall in love with Kenichi’s smile, as he smiles happily.
He was there when I wanted him to be there…….
He is always thinking about me, …… this troublesome woman.
It really is …….
“…… Hey Kenichi.”
“What?”
“I love …… you.”
“Yeah, me too.”
I smiled and turned my face to Kenichi, who smiled a little embarrassed.
