Chapter 113: The Morning which He was woken up by the Angel’s Voice (1/2)

“Amane-kun, please wake up.”

A gentle voice called for him.

Once he heard this whisper-like voice, “nn”, he groaned while still in his comfortable dreamland, and then lifted his heavy eyelids, opening his eyes slowly.

His vision was a little blurred, probably due to fatigue. The sunlight shining through the window showed the girl dear to him.

She had a knee on his bed as she leaned forward, probably have shaken Amane about. The flax-colored hair dropped like vines, swaying about.

“…Mahiru?”

“Nn, good morning.”

Amane called out her name to confirm, heard a familiar voice, and saw her face.

His mind started to feel a little confused, not because he was sleeping, but that Mahiru was present. She was at his place, as though it was natural, and his confusion gradually subsided.

“…Morning. Why are you here, Mahiru?”

“Do you not remember what we talked about yesterday, Amane-kun?”

Mahiru frowned, and he repeated the word “Yesterday”. It took him a while to recall the conversation they had the previous day.

“Can we go to school together on Monday?”

Mahiru said this before they went their separate ways on Sunday.

She fidgeted, and lifted her head towards him uneasily, which made him a little restless.

Mahiru asked so cautiously as she wanted to be sure if Amane wanted to hide their relationship.

They did discuss and decided to reveal their relationship openly, but she appeared a little uneasy.

Since there was pretty much an open confession, Amane felt it was impossible for them to hide the relationship any further. He intended to just go along with it, and say that they were officially dating.

“Hm, it’s fine.”

“R-really?”

“Why do I have to lie to you?”

Amane promised, and the uneasiness vanished from Mahiru’s expression, turning into delight.

“I always wanted to go to school together.” She muttered bashfully, which caused his heart to race, but it appeared she did not notice it, for she looked overjoyed.

“I shall visit your house in the morning then, Amane-kun. We shall have breakfast together.”

“Woah, fresh breakfast from you early in the morning, Mahiru? I’m really lucky.”

“It is leftovers from our bentos…do you mind if I make your bento, Amane-kun?”

“Please do.”

He was really blessed to have her breakfast, and now lunch too. Of course he could not refuse this offer.

Mahiru too looked relieved and overjoyed that she did not have to worry about others, which cheered Amane up. At the same time, he felt ticklish and gaudy.

We’re going to school together tomorrow, huh?

Till this point, Amane left home at a different time from Mahiru, so that others would not notice their relationship.

There was no further need for that.
