Chapter 161: Meetup (1/2)

“Wow, yukatas.”

Itsuki was already waiting for them when they arrived at the station closest to the festival.

It appeared Itsuki never expected the couple to be in yukatas, for his eyes widened in amazement once he saw them.

“It’s been days since we last met. Mom sent both yukatas.”

“Heh, Shihoko-san’s really well prepared. It’s like she reads your minds.

“I feel the same. Well, since she prepared them, I wore them.”

It seemed as though Shihoko had anticipated an invitation to the summer festival given how the items were packed in there, and in a certain sense, Amane was impressed.

Amane decided to thank her later by sending over a photo of Mahiru in yukata, and looked towards Itsuki again.

Itsuki was dressed in casual plainclothes, a simple shirt and jeans, but he looked fine in them. It really was a cardinal sin to be a handsome, and one would assume a yukata would suit him too.

“Yep yep, a beauty in yukata in quite the eyecandy.”

“Hey Ikkun, what about me~?”

“You’re always cute though Chii.”

“…You have a habit of laughing out loud whenever I use facial masks though.”

“But that’s cute too.”

“You’re obviously about to laugh here, right~?”

Chitose hammered at Itsuki with some strength, and Itsuki’s shoulders were huffing in laughter, resulting in Mahiru giving a wry smile.

Speaking of which, Amane did see Mahiru use facial masks when they returned to his hometown. He remembered feeling very impressed by how difficult it was to maintain one’s beauty, rather than finding it bemusing.

Of course, he too was nearly dragged into using them too, but he ultimately refused.
