After receiving the blindfolds, the maid bowed once, and then walked away.

He looked at the blindfolds in his hand and the maid that was walking away.

What a mystery, Taiyou thought.

This maid and that maid. I wonder if Juunishima’s maids are all like this, or if this maid is an elite one or something, Taiyou thought.

(Well, whatever…)

But, since he had the blindfolds that he requested anyway, he took them in hand and approached the three sisters.

He looked at them as a new thought entered his mind.

「Oh yeah, could you each take out your smartphones?」

「Smartphones?」

「Sure.」

「What do you plan to do?」

The three sisters asked, each at the same times. He took the phones up from each of the three sisters.

Then, after that, he blindfolded each of the sister’s eyes.

「Okay, let’s do this.」

After having their phone taken, the sisters showed a slightly frightened, expectatious face.

As they went out into the garden, Taiyou sat Suzune onto a large rock. One might have questioned whether or not they should even touch such a large object of art located in the garden, but the turned on Taiyou ignored that fact.

Kotone and Kazane were put in different places, far from each other, as the uncomfortably separated Suzune, who was far from the others, was also like the others blindfolded.

After that, he placed the smartphone in front of Suzune and the others with the frame of each camera on them.

「Don’t take off that blindfold.」

Taiyou whispered in her ear. It was a very soft tone in which he said it, softer than a passing insect.

「Uh, okay.」

Suzune fearfully assented as Taiyou took a step away to separate himself from her.

「T…Taiyou-san?」

「…」

「Did…you leave?」

Suzune pleaded in a small voice, suddenly small, because she was worried.

Taiyou simply watched the three sisters. As he stood there, he quietly erased any audible trace of him being there and simply stared at Suzune.

「Taiyou-san?」

Suzune called out once more in a crying voice, as there was no answer.

They all began to plead.

「Koto-chan, Kaza-chan, is Taiyou there with you?」

Her words soon seemed like she was talking to herself, this three-girl telepathy.

Watching this, Taiyou took his smartphone out and turned on an app.

In a three split screen was Kotone and Kazane, and Suzune right in front of him.

All three of their smartphones were linked in one transmission.

A transmission of all of them in their respective places. There on the screen were their different places – Kotone in a building corridor, Kazuya on a terrace to a hot springs.

All three had their eyes covered, but weren’t bound up. They could take them off at any time, but they followed what he said and didn’t take them off.

Kotone’s mouth opened on the camera.

「Taiyou-san? Are you there?」

Suzune asked the same right in front of him.

Kazane asked the same on the smartphone.

All in order, a chorus of the souls.

They all called his name, and all looked worried.

Three unevenly sized sisters.

Yet looking at them, you couldn’t hardly tell the triplets apart.

His love for them bubbled up from the depths of his heart. Like a fountain, limitlessly.

While holding that sweet throbbing in his chest, he approached Suzune. He held his breath as he stood before her, put out his hand, and tickled her chin with his fingers.

「Ahhn…」

Her voice leaked out, at the same time, the bodies of the two girls on camera twitched and shivered.

Just like one would do with a cat, he tickled around her chin.

「Taiyou-san…Taiyou-sannn…」

As she called his name, she reached out and drew closer. Taiyou did the opposite, dodging her while continuing to tickle her.

Suzune seemed enchanted. Her former fears seemed to have melted away.

Her mischievous nature seemed to be aroused as well.

「Hee, hee」

Unlike normal, this was a laugh that she stifled in the depths of her throat.

「Wha? T, Taiyou-san?」

With an euphoric face, she lifted her face without fear or surprise.

She called out his name in a plea, but there was no reply. He wouldn’t give her any.

「Taiyou…what are you doing?」

She plead over and over again. The idea that it might not be Taiyou, but someone else emerged, and she began to look like she would reject him.

「…」

Suddenly, Suzune held back her voice. Taiyou didn’t miss avoiding her arm reaching out right before she said this.

She wanted to take off her blindfold, but she remembered what he had said and kept in on.

She did what Taiyou told her to do. Don’t take off your blindfold, he said.

With a worried expression, she called out to her sisters.
