Ping-pong.
The next day after Hatsumode, I visited Saito’s house as usual. Remembering what happened yesterday, I rang the doorbell nervously.
I was somewhat restless and fidgety, so I moved my body back and forth and waited, but she didn’t come out.
I tilted my head at the fact that no one answered, and pressed the doorbell again.
I thought I heard a loud slamming sound coming from behind the door, then I heard someone’s footsteps and a voice coming from the speaker.
[Yes, yes]
[Um, it’s Tanaka, are you okay?]
[I… I’m sorry. Can you give me 3 minutes?]
I could tell she was in a hurry, her tone was high and she was stuttering a lot.
Apparently, something was going on in her room.
I was a little worried, but if she said to wait a little, I don’t think I should be worried about it too much.
[Yeah, I’ll wait]
[I’m sorry, I’ll make it as quick as I can]
[Got it]
When I said that, the speaker clicked and went silent.
I can feel she was running around inside, but what was really going on?
I was a little curious as to what happened, but I was bored, so I played with my phone.
I waited for a while, then I heard a bang and the door opened.
[Sorry to keep you waiting!]
As soon as she came out, she bowed her head.
She seemed to feel bad about making people wait, and her eyebrows lowered.
When I see that kind of expression, I feel like I’m doing something wrong.
Everyone has something unexpected happen to them, and I didn’t mind, so I followed her inside.
[No, it’s fine, really…]
After saying that, I realized from her appearance as to why she was late.
[Oh, have you been asleep the whole time?]
Her hair was tied up, but her ends were bouncy and her bangs were more messy than usual.
She probably was sleeping soundly until I rang the doorbell.
It was unusual for her to sleep at this time, but there might be times when she does.
When I said that I noticed, she blushed and turned her eyes away from me.
Her ears began to turn red as well and she froze.
[I-Is t-that so…?]
[Uhh… I’m sorry for noticing]
From her point of view, it seemed that it was something embarrassing. When she looked so embarrassed, I didn’t know what to say and apologized.
[…It’s okay already, come on in]
She said it in a tsundere tone and went inside. (TN: More Tsun Saito :0)
At first, I had an image that she was a perfect girl, but now I realized she was also a human with a few loose ends. The tension I had earlier was gone when I realized that fact.
I let out a thin chuckle at her back as I followed her inside.
AN:
I’m sorry. I was supposed to write a story about the part-time job, but I came up with a good one, so I’ll do one more story. (*・ω・)*_ _)
