55 – What Now?
The next morning.
Saturday is the day to sleep in. According to the routine, I slept until a little late and opened my eyes.
Then Ina pulled the blanket up to her eyes and looked at me.
“Whoops. Good morning.”
“Uh… ….”
In a drowsy state, it was only after he let out an unreasonable answer.
“Huh?”
I belatedly recognized the situation.
The fact that Ina was facing me while lying on my bed meant that I was lying on the bed. And when I came to my senses, I was actually lying on the bed.
Even with the blanket covered with Inna.
I jumped up and clung to the opposite wall.
Ugh, hmm. The clothes are well worn. The sheets were not soiled at all. I don’t remember ever doing anything like that. Uh huh isnt it right?
Since she is in confusion, Ina, who raised her body, smiled.
“Why are you so surprised?”
“I was wondering if I made some mistake last night.”
“Umm~ I see~”
After hearing my words, Ina fell into thought for a moment and then straightened her back.
“I was really sick yesterday.”
“What is it that hurts?”
“Don’t you remember? Didn’t I just cry yesterday?”
Ina smiled shyly.
I know that. I distinctly remember leaning on my back and really shedding tears. Ina’s eyes were still slightly swollen. And it was easy to guess that her heart must have been very painful.
…… I don’t know why the waist was stretched.
“It’s pretty late after I stop crying. She lay down to sleep but couldn’t sleep well. Then did you say You will lie next to me until I fall asleep.”
“Ah~”
Dim memories come back.
It seems that I fell asleep before Ina fell asleep after lying down like that. Even if she thinks of herself, she’s a funny guy.
But what can I do? She pondered for a long time whether or not to tell Inna her words, and in the end she felt guilty for making Inna break her heart. It was because she was so mentally exhausted.
Mmm.
“So, so I didn’t make any mistakes yesterday?”
When asked for the first time, Ina narrowed her big eyes and covered her mouth while she laughed.
“Not making a mistake is a mistake.”
“Yes. I’m glad.”
Only then did I let go of my sigh.
“What should I do now?”
Ina sat down on the bed and asked.
It was clear what the question meant.
I hope you don’t try to continue a relationship that’s already tangled up. I said this to Ina. And Ina also understood my feelings.
Now that Inna had a knot in her heart, she now needed to cut her knot. This is the relationship that Ina has brought to this point. It was only Ina who could put an end to her.
“I think it will work if I tell you two honestly.”
“Dear my parents, you mean?”
“Yes.”
Fortunately, the two of them were told that they would not stab her with Inna. To those two, Ina must have been a ping-pong tool. It wouldn’t have been worth more than proof that it was because I did well or because you didn’t.
If even that disappears…… Perhaps the two will separate.
“Yes. Okay. Then I’ll call you right away and tell you.”
“Oh, no. Wait for a sec.”
“Huh?”
I immediately pulled out my phone and stopped Ina. Ina tilted her head and looked up at me. It’s a cute move, but it wasn’t the time to keep it in her eyes.
“I want to go too.”
“To meet my parents?”
“Yes. To be honest, I’m worried.”
Even though she never touched Ina. She couldn’t help but worry.
At my words, Ina said ahahahaha and laughed.
“You are worried about me.”
“Of course not. And I have something I want to say to you two.”
“What is it?”
“We won’t live like the two of you,” He said.
“Unlike you, that is a powerful statement.”
“I am a man who does things when I do.”
“Ahahahaha. Okay. I think it’s cool.”
Ina still smiled as she said that.
“Even so. I will go alone.”
It seemed that they had no intention of putting me in that position.
“Why?”
“Umm~ There is no particular reason.”
Ina kept her head down and she looked like she was contemplating.
“I think it’s time for me to take a step myself.”
She said so.
At that word, a smile came out without my knowledge.
“I am proud of you.”
“Don’t treat me like a child.”
Ina pouted and pouted her mouth, but this was my honest opinion. I thought it was really great that he had the heart to end it on his own.
“I’m still worried, so I’ll stay near your house. If you have any problems, call me right away.”
“Yes!”
With a smile brighter than the sunlight shining through the window, Ina answered.

“Um~ I guess you decided to do that.”
While Ina was getting ready to leave, she hinted at the story of last night to her older sister.
For this time only, I rented her room, and she hung out with Ina, and even asked questions that hit her right, even though she probably didn’t know her circumstances. It was a level that could be called MVP.
So it was necessary to tell the results.
“Since I heard some of the details from the person in question, I wondered if I should give you some advice. It was resolved earlier than expected.”
“It is not resolved yet.”
“You said that if something goes wrong, you will be responsible for everything? So, did you solve it in any way?”
“What… ….”
“So? How are you going to take responsibility?”
He pokes me here and there with his narrow eyes. Annoyance creeps up.
“I can do it on my own.”
“Why are you so rebellious? Are you a teenager already?”
“It’s not already, it must have already passed.”
I turned around and looked at my room, and it seemed Ina was almost ready. Assuming that he reciprocated as much as he helped, there is no reason to continue this trivial conversation.
“Go.”
When I said that, my sister gave a small smile.
“You are already an adult.”
“What?”
“Nothing.”
“Nothing?”
“Yes. Oh, and mom and dad are both going to come back late saying they have a meeting. I will go back to the dormitory soon.”
“Uh… …. I get it.”
Why are you telling me this? To me who had doubts, my sister waved her hand as if telling me to leave. Well, it’s nothing
I ran out of the house leaving my older sister behind.
&
A cafe near Ina’s house.
Ina dignifiedly entered the meeting place, the house. I also wanted to follow, but it would be better to respect Ina’s feelings.
Therefore, I burrowed in the vicinity…… Not I was waiting like a 5-minute keynote.
If I ever get a call from Ina, I’ll run away right away.
But that didn’t happen.
About an hour later, Ina waved her hand and walked over to my seat. Her body was intact, and she had a smile on her face. Nothing big seemed to have happened.
“Are you okay?”
“Yes. Nothing happened. I just said what I was thinking.”
“What are you talking about?”
“For example. Things that made you sad or sad. I was lonely and I was sitting there petting Kkami by myself. And a long time ago, when everyone was playing together harmoniously.”
Ina replied, stroking the table with her fingers.
“I told you those things. Well, it’s all memories now anyway.”
Ina smiles at me.
You wouldn’t feel comfortable. I wondered if he was trying to smile on purpose so I wouldn’t worry.
“What can I say? It’s a sad feeling.”
Listening to what Ina said, it didn’t seem like that was the case.
“Really?”
“Yes. Oh, and actually the two of you. You were already preparing. To separate.”
“…… Is that so?”
“It seems that you did it with the intention of ending the fight this time.”
“Mmm.”
She will never see her again, and she will never enter the house again. Was it the feeling of giving up everything like that?
It was a relationship that would end anyway. Left alone, Ina’s parents would separate, and Ina wouldn’t have had to struggle to maintain her relationship.
But if that’s the case.
“Even so. I’m glad I was able to speak my mind honestly.”
“I’m glad.”
If she didn’t keep it, she must have resented herself. She was very fortunate that it didn’t happen.
“I still have a little bit left to do legally, but I don’t think I need to worry anymore.”
“Yes. Now I can live my life doing what I want to do.”
“Yes. You can go on a date as much as you like.”
“I’m in my third year of high school soon.”
“You can go on a study date. Like going to the library together.”
“Isn’t that just studying?”
“Just being together is fun. An ordinary life without anything happening is a precious law.”
“Yes. That’s right.”
When she answered with a nod of her head, Ina clapped her hands as if she remembered something.
“Oh, come to think of it.”
Ina looked at me and continued her words.
“I told you what I wanted to say earlier.”
“A while ago?”
The words “We will not live like the two of you.”
“You said that?”
“Yes. I have no intention of becoming like you two.”
Ina she rarely speaks strong words, she said this time firmly. It means that you have a strong heart.
“But if you think about it carefully, isn’t it a bit like that?”
“Huh? What?”
She doesn’t know why, but when asked, she smiled.
“We will not live like the two of you,” Means that we will get married and live happily until the end, right?”
“Uh…… ?”
“Isn’t it?”
“No… ….”
It wasn’t. Actually, I also wanted to say it in that nuance. I just wasn’t aware of it.
Ina continued to smile and wiggled her body from side to side.
“I see~ You want to get married with me~ You were already looking into the future~”
If you tease me like this, there’s no way to resist.
I averted my gaze and brought the ordered coffee to my mouth. I don’t usually drink coffee. I just thought about drinking some because my older sister had been saying strange things about me becoming an adult.
“Over there.”
As I put down her coffee cup, Ina muttered. A voice that seemed to be mixed with nervousness in a somewhat restless gesture. It was an unusual look.
“Why is that?”
“That, that’s what I mean~”
Ina took some time off.
“Today, your parents are not at home. It looks like you have an appointment late.”
“How do you know about my parents?”
“Well~”
Worry about where you got that information…… Need to see that would be my sister What kind of scheme did he come up with and handed over this information?
“So?”
“That, I mean.”
Ina kept her head down and talked behind her back.
“I wondered what it would be like to make a fait accompli.”
“What?”
“Oh, nothing.”
From noble mtl dot com
I’ve already heard it all before I can pass it off as if it’s nothing…….
“Where did you learn that? It’s still too early for you.”
“Hey, are we the same age?”
“Yes, but.”
“I just said yesterday that I might not be able to stand it if I said this, so I focused on attacking.”
“What if I can’t stand it then?”
“Ahahahaha. Did you say I don’t care if you can’t stand it and run.”
Ina smiled and said.
Are you trying to put me to the test, or are you sure that I won’t pass you over even if you say these things? I don’t know which one, but anyway.
“Okay.”
“Huh? Are you going to make a fait accompli?”
“No. Just what…… Let’s go to my house for now.”
Because I have nowhere else to go. That’s really why. There is no other black heart in particular.
“Yes!”
I let out a sigh as I saw Ina answering vigorously this time as well.
Come to think of it, there was still ‘that’ on the desk…….
With those useless thoughts in mind, we headed home.
