Resting on Illness-san’s lap in the shade of the park was a blissful ti, but it felt like a waste to do that forever. Besides, I had the feeling I’d end up falling asleep if I stayed like that, so after a while, I got up. We sat side by side and began chatting.
[Kaito-samaaaaa, would you like to prepare so light snaaaaaacks?]
[Oh, we can have food and drinks here too? I’m not particularly hungry, but sothing to nibble on might be nice.]
[How about so cookiiiiiies?]
[Thank you, I’ll have so.]
What Illness-san prepared were bite-sized mini cookies, and when I tried one, a gentle sweetness and buttery flavor spread in my mouth.
They were just right for snacking on while chatting…… As I thought that, Illness-san took out a cylinder…… or rather, sothing that clearly resembles a thermos.
[……You’re really well-prepared. Did you perhaps anticipate we'd co here?]
[No, that isn't the caaaase. I just thought thaaaat, maybe after the caféeeee, we might go sowhere else, so I prepared various thiiiiiings.]
[Thank you. I an, you’re really doing so much for ……]
[Don’t worry about iiiiiiiit. I do it because I enjoy iiiiiit. How should I put it…… it makes incredibly happy to think that by doing sothiiiiiing, I can help Kaito-sama feel comfortableeeeee. So, even preparing things was fun for eeeee.]
Even without using my Sympathy Magic, I could tell that Illness-san’s smile was genuine. How should I say this…… it really seed like taking care of makes her happy, and that sentint ca through so straightforwardly that it made a little embarrassed.
[How should I say this…… it might be strange for to say this, but as I ntioned earlier, Illness-san really is quite devoted. I’m happy, but please don’t overdo it.]
[Yeeeees. Howeveeeeer, I really am not overexerting myseeeeeelf. Even my usual work goes the sa as usuaaaaal. Especially when it cos to managing Kaito-sama's househoooooold, it’s truly enjoyable for eeeee, so I’d say I’m spending my ti doing sothing I loooooove.]
[When you put it that way, I can't really say anything. However, please let thank you…… Illness-san, thank you so much for everything.]
[Kuhihi, hearing Kaito-sama say that really makes happyyyy.]
Illness-san handled several tis the work of an ordinary person on a daily basis, and while she seed perfectly capable of doing so, I had worried a bit, but it seed she genuinely enjoyed her work, which is reassuring.
It's just, at the sa ti as these thoughts popped in my mind…… Since we were together as a couple, and with no one else in sight, just the two of us, a desire to spend the mont in a more romantic way started to well up inside .
Considering the current situation, the simplest thing I could do was……
[……Illness-san, errr…… Would you mind if I put my arm around your shoulders?]
S- Saying it out loud made a little nervous…… I was pretty sure Illness-san wouldn’t refuse, but even so, I couldn’t help but feel a bit tense.
Illness-san, after looking surprised for a mont, smiled warmly.
[Yeeees. It would be my pleasuuuure.]
[Then, if you'll excuse .]
With her permission granted, I placed my hand on Illness-san's shoulder and gently pulled her close. She was more petite than I had imagined, with her shoulders being quite small and delicate…… How should I say this…… She feels so soft.
Illness-san leaned lightly against , and I could feel a faint warmth from where we were touching and from the hand resting on her shoulder. It was a bit ticklish, but I felt incredibly happy.
Just as I thought about continuing with so light conversation, Illness-san suddenly spoke up as if sothing had crossed her mind.
[……Kaito-samaaaa, if there's anything else you'd like to do, there's no need to seek my permission.]
[Huh? Errr…… What do you an?]
[Well, I know that Kaito-sama is very kiiiiiind and you're being considerate of my feeliiiiings. It's juuuuust, for the sake of simplifying things moving forwaaaaard, I wanted to tell you this in advaaaance…… You can do anything you waaaaant. I…… am yours after all.]
As she said this with a smile, Illness-san looked both compassionate and sensually captivating, as if she were enveloping everything in her warmth. Her beauty was so striking that it took my breath away.
Serious-senpai : [Guaaaahhh, i- is this…… the legendary No Guard Style…….?]
? ? ? : [I don't think she had been guarded against Kaito-san to begin with, and well, her declaring it to him like that was for flirting sake.]
