Part 2
I wiped the sweat offthe intense heat
”And---why is the actually crucial Kikyo-chan not here? Huh, Ayanokouji?!” And the first thing Ike askedme about the absence of Kushi+da
But I'd like him to not ask me that Both Horikita and Kushi+da, it's not like I' both their schedules I think it's only probably because I'et for them to vent their frustrations on, but I'm also rather sick of this kind of interaction
”Think about it cal with us It's probably just that” I replied to him
”I' to be satisfied with just that excuse! If Kikyo-chan is not here, there's noto this” Ike said
That's going too far I'd like hi aside Ike and the others ere getting overly excited on their own, it seeirl friends and went out shopping
”So I have no choice but to go pre-shopping with a bunch of bastards that I'm not even interested in, that's sad!” Ike continued
I can understand his feelings in wanting to screaether with a bunch of sadthis, I foundit just a little bit too
Over the course of the summer vacation, other than the school lesson (exa out with otherwith friends and watching movies with them
”Screw going out shopping sadly with these three bastards Haruki, I' the rest up to you Choose an item that Kokoro-chan would love” Ike said
”Don't joke around You were the one who suggested this, live up to your oords” Yamauchi retorted to him
Those two exchanging coot in between Ike and Yamauchi ere in the middle of their conflict
”Calo and buy it Sudou's already entrusted us with his portion of the points too” I told them
”That's true, but I feel like we don't need all three of us to do it”
”We've already coo back”
Since if we disband now I'd feel slightly lonely, I tried persuading them with those words
”It'll bein this scorching heat” I told them
”Ahhhh---fine, I got it Let's just quickly buy and go back Ahh---this is boring
Contrary to those tho had completely lost their exciteht excitement
Even a the shops one does not norirls frequently spend their tih-level, older beauty And furthermore, the interior of the shop was colored all pink It exudes an aura that would nor fros unnecessary for studies are on display here I suppose this can be considered as exploiting private points from the students
”I suppose since those points are also being issued to us from the school there's no real loss” I muttered
”What are you going on about? Help us decide what to buy too”
What I' at the beautiful clerk and the other feh you both claied your opinions quickly
After that we split up and circled the shop to find a good birthday present to buy But of course, fro the birthday present It was because I had no idea ould ood present or not to choose from
”What would she likeI have no idea”
This issomeone a birthday present But since the three of us were collectively buying this present, it's a blurry line when it coory of a ”first” for me
In any case, I aards to this In addition to that, s I could think of as appropriate gifts were ”bonquet of roses” and ”ring” Things that are far separated froer just a birthday present but a proposal to the girl After circling the shop once, I rendezvoused with Yamauchi In Yamauchi's hands was a s a cell phone cover in my hands
And upon seeing that, Yamauchi scowls at me
”You know, drop that cell phone cover stuff First of all, Kokoro-chan already absolutely has one and the level of preference between those covers is huge so it'd be troubleso from Yamauchi
”I see Then how about this protective film?” I asked him
As a backupelse I had chosen But when I did, Yamauchi's facial expression turned into a frown
”No, no, no That's so she doesn't need Ayanokouji, you really don't have a sense for this kind of thing”
”But things like stuffed animals, wouldn't that be a real problem for her?” I asked Yamauchi
Even if she gets a stuffed animal it does not fulfill any purpose It simply takes up space in her room
”Sure it may be a problem for her, but she can use it to decorate her room's interior Kokoro-chan likes this white bear series of stuffed animals so I think she'll be happy with this More like, I don't want to hear that froht a cell phone cover and a protective film” Yamauchi retorted
When I was mocked by Yamauchi like that I don't knohy butit was really a shock But I was honestly ihly researched the tastes of the person ere buying a gift for As forInokashi+ra's name to her face, and I could clearly feel the difference in the level of friendshi+p between us
”So where's Kanji?”
”I wonder---”
When the two of us looked through the shop for hi by the keychain corner He see out to him we approached him in silence
It seeoods with an orangeso else, a cloth with the white bear that Yamauchi had printed on it
”Oi, Kanji”
”Uwaaa?! D-don't surprise me like that” Ike said
Having heard us call out to him, the surprised Ike panicked and al And then, for some reason almost as if to hide it, he immediately returns it to the shelf
”H-have you already decided?” he asks us
”Ahh, I thought we'd go with this A white bear towel Hahaha”
”That's not it Why were you looking at keychains?”
”Ehh? It's not like I have any secret o see what's over there” Ike replied
In response to the Ike who tried to change the subject like that, Yamauchi turned his eyes in suspicion
