Chapter 130: Angel and frolicking by the waterside (1/2)

Though she initially worried about drowning, Mahiru seemed to not car about it as she played in the pool, probably because she was with Amane.

Amane rented a float ring from the nearby customer center, and handed it to Mahiru, who pouted and said “It feels like you are taking me for a child…” Safety first though, so she slipped her body through it.

The strength was sapped from her as she floated on the water, looking up at Amane with a relaxed face.

Amane waited by her side for the time being, wanting to observe her. Given this situation, they should be fine swimming.

“It feels comfortable.”

She smiled next to him, and floated about in the ring. “Yeah.” Amane replied as he stayed by the poolside.

He liked to swim, but he did not really like to play by the waterside, so he was fine just lazing around like this. If Chitose and Itsuki were around, they probably would want to play beach volleyball or the water slide.

It was nothing bad per se, but Amane preferred a peaceful time like this.

“Well, you probably won’t drown now. Have fun.”

“…I am embarrassed about having to use a float ring at this age.”

“Women use them too. See, there’s another one on a float ring too.”

Amane pointed at a lady in swimsuit, floating around while put through the float ring.

But adults would use a float ring for leisurely purposes, rather than to assist in swimming.

Mahiru, who had the float ring on, looked over at where Amane pointed, hurried back to the surface, and sat on it.

Once she saw that the ring held her up, she blinked, and smiled elatedly. It appeared she liked it like this.

The milky white ankles beneath Amane’s rashguard were exposed as they kicked up water.

Her legs were fine and slender, and appropriately soft. While Amane was entralled by them, Mahiru splashed water on him.

Water was dripping from Amane’s chine as he looked towards Mahiru, and found her showing a happy, carefree smile.

One had to wonder if she knew where he was looking, or just wanted to splash water on him…once Amane counterattacked lightly, her smile brightened.

“You are good. Ehhh!”

Or perhaps she just wanted him to pay attention to her.

Mahiru splashed water on Amane, who smiled as he counterattacked.

Despite that, Mahiru could not move as she was seated on the float ring, so Amane attacked gently to not cause her trouble.
