Chapter 125: Kurusu Mia 44
Omuro Mountain.
Although it is called a mountain, it’s not the kind that you can climb.
It’s a mountain, but I don’t think anyone recognizes it as such.
A long time ago, it became famous as a summer resort, and a good number of villas were built there.
Although the name of this place is not so common these days, it is still a kind of status for the rich people in this area to have a villa on the Omuro Mountain.
“I, I have brass band practice, so…”
Rino-chan raised her hand, though it seemed difficult for her to say.
The food on the table had been cleared away, and now we were talking about our summer vacation trip.
“Do you have a schedule? Are your parents okay with it?”
Mia asked Rino-chan.
Rino took out her cell phone and operated a few things on it.
“My parents are fine with it. Here’s the schedule…”
“Wow, that’s quite a lot of practice.”
The screen showed a picture of the schedule of the club activities.
Shirota looked at it and blinked a few times.
“Our middle school has a pretty strong brass band….”
“Then you are not participating!”
No one was listening to Mikoto’s screams.
“Even Yousuba has a lot of club activities.”
“That’s true but……It’s devilish to not have a day off so far.”
Eda and Shirota are having a conversation.
In the end, we found out that we could only stay one night around Obon Festival.
When the date was decided, they began to talk about what they would do.
“But the most we can do is go for a walk…. And see a few famous waterfalls, is that okay?”
Eda explained.
It’s a summer resort. It’s not a tourist resort.
“Isn’t there anything you want to do, Okutani?”
It was Shirota who asked.
I couldn’t hide the fact that I was looking forward to having fun with everyone.
I thought about it for a while and then said,
“Maybe a barbecue?”
“I can do that.”
Eda immediately replied.
I heard that there was a barbecue set in the villa, although they had never used it.
“Ah, I want to do fireworks!”
Mikoto said.
Her comment was not ignored and was accepted by everyone.
“How about a test of courage?”
“Eh….That’s a bit of a stretch.”
Surprisingly, it was Mia who didn’t like Shirota’s suggestion of a test of courage.
Eda immediately interjected.
“Are you not good at unscientific things, Kurusu-san?”
“Is there anyone who is good at it?”
Mia’s slightly upset expression was adorable.
It wasn’t only me, but the others seemed to think so as well.
Mikoto smirked and said with a delighted expression.
“Hee, Mia’s not good with ghosts…”
“As I said, are there people who aren’t good at it?”
“I, I am fine with it!”
I don’t know why Rino-chan is so competitive here.
It’s like she’s desperately trying to find an element that will help her win against Mia.
We decided on a barbecue, fireworks, and a test of courage.
We had to decide who would be in charge of preparing each.
“Then, Okutani-kun, who came up with the idea, will be in charge of the barbecue ingredients, right?”
Eda showed a typical student council president’s style.
Mikoto would be in charge of the fireworks and Shirota would be in charge of the test of courage.
The rest, Mia, Eda and Rino, will be paired with us.
I had hoped that they would be competing for my attention, but it didn’t come to that.
“I’ll take the liberty of deciding, but since Rino-san said she was good with ghosts, she and Yotsuba would be in charge of the test of courage. I’ll be in charge of the fireworks with Mikoto, since I know someone who can make fireworks.”
Did you say you know a fireworks maker?
What kind of connections do I need to know them?
I mean, do we really do that kind of serious fireworks?
Naturally, Mia and I were put in charge of the barbecue.
Mia also gave her stamp of approval, saying that she would leave it to me to prepare the ingredients.
“Then, see you soon.”
With a word from Eda, we were ready to break up.
Shirota said she had some business to attend to later, so she was going to leave as soon as possible.
Rino-chan joined her in leaving.
Apparently, she is becoming much more forgiving of Shirota.
“Mikoto-san, you stay and help clean up.”
Mikoto replied cheerfully to Eda’s instruction.
I helped her clean up a bit, and now Mia and I are going home together.
“I’m glad.”
“Yeah…”
As soon as we got on the bus, Mia said.
We sat down next to each other, shoulder to shoulder.
“You should be more happy. You’ve got two more girlfriends.”
That’s true, but I’m also very worried.
Rino seems uncomfortable, and I’m also curious about Mikoto and Eda’s relationship.
Above all, Mia and Eda are not a good match either.
“I’m looking forward to it. We’re all staying the night together.”
“Really?”
“Eh?”
Mia rolls her eyes at my question.
My heart skipped a beat in surprise when my eyes met hers.
“Aren’t you looking forward to it, Koumei?”
“Well, I’m looking forward to it, but I’m not sure if I’ll get along with everyone.”
“What’s that?”
Mia said in a slightly cold tone.
“They are your girlfriends, you know. You should make an effort to get along with them.”
“That’s true, but….”
“What is it, mou.”
She puffed out her cheeks, and Mia raised an eyebrow.
“Just when I think you’ve lost a little slack, there’s this….”
“I’m sorry.”
“It’s okay… And I know it sounds weird, but I’m trying to do the same.”
“What?”
When we made eye contact, Mia smiled.
Then she blushed a little, as if embarrassed, and said.
“You know, I’m special among them, right?”
“Y, yeah.”
“So I have to work hard with Koumei to make sure everyone does well….”
“Mia….”
What I was going to carry alone, Mia was going to carry with me.
“That’s why, don’t look at me like that! I’m here for you.”
“Th, thank you.”
I answered, trying to keep my face as cheerful as possible.
