Hiro's answer left Endo, Rin and Akashi, all three of them dumbfounded. As if they had heard so holy words coming out from Hiro's mouth, they simply couldn't believe that Hiro could speak such cheesy words.
Afterall their impression of Hiro was soone who was obsessed with only football and nothing else.
And infact even in school years when he was getting hit on by many beautiful girls, he never paid any attention to them.
But now at this mont, infront of their eyes, Hiro was blatantly hitting on Sumire.
Akashi who was the most shocked among the three of them looked towards the direction of Rin and Endo and uttered with a look of shock on his face, "Is this really happening?"
While the three of them were all flabbergasted, the sa couldn't be said to another girl who was standing beside Sumire.
Her cheeks flushed, her eyes gleaming and her heart thumping heavily, she was overtly excited by the scene taking place infront of her eyes.
As if she was watching a romantic drama, she was desperately trying to hold her back from screaming aloud.
Sumire on the other hand, squinched her eyes as she started making faces. She found Hiro's cheesy words extrely cringy.
Even though she found Hiro really cute, she was still not expecting him to speak in such a way.
"Umm... May be you're right." Awkwardly answered Sumire.
Hearing her response, Hiro laughed as he replied, "Haha... Sorry. I was just teasing you. I could recognise you because of the pendant that you're wearing. Isn't it the pendant which your late grandmother left you?"
Pointing at the pendant which Sumire was wearing, Hiro lied to her that he recognised her because of the pendant.
Although Hiro was right about the story about the pendant, Sumire was still unconvinced by his vague answers.
"You're right about the pendant as well. But I'm still not sure how you ca to know about both the pendant and the fact that I used to assist my grandpa in the hill temple. And how co you know this much about and I don't know anything about you?" Sumire responded in sowhat suspicious way.
The more the conversation went further the more complicated Hiro's words seem to her.
"The sumr of 2016. Don't you rember about the one day camp held in the temple? We even spent an entire day polishing the statues in the temple because nobody wanted to do such tedious work." While making use of the knowledge from his previous life, Hiro responded.
As she heard about the sumr camp of 2016, her eyes glowed with excitent as she raised her voice all of a sudden, "You were that kid from the camp?"
Her words reflected how shocked she was to find that Hiro was the kid from back then.
Lifting the corner of his mouth, Hiro revealed a gentle smile as he nodded his head and answered, "May be you've already forgotten about that day since there were a lot of kids participating in the camp. But it's understandable since more than 5 years had already passed and after that I never showed up in the temple."
Everything he was making was made up. Infact he had never been to the temple. Nor had he encountered her in his early days. Neither in his previous life nor in his present life.
But still his words were all true. The thing about the hill temple, the story about the pendant and the story about the boy from the sumr camp of 2016. Each and every single one of those stories were true.
And each and every single one of those things was told to him by Sumire in his previous life.
And about the story about the boy from the camp of 2016, she had personally told him that she had spent an entire day with a boy during that sumr camp of 2016 but since that boy never showed up again, she forgot both his appearance and na.
The only thing which she still rembered was the mory of that ti.
Making use of the fact that she had forgotten the appearance and the na of the person, Hiro ticulously used that story to cover up his lies.
All of a sudden, Sumire's face brightened as a smile ford on her face. She then excitedly mumbled, "Sowhere in my heart I always believed that I could et you again. And finally fate has brought us together."
As she was speaking such, her tone changed as she began to apologise, "You recognised imdiately. But I never recognised you. I even doubted you. I'm really sorry for not recognising you."
Her words reflected how regretful she felt for not recognising him instantly.
Hearing her apology, Hiro couldn't help but feel a little bad about using her cherished mories in such way, 'I'm really sorry for using your cherished mories like this. But I simply couldn't think of any other way to get close to you.'
Although he felt a little sad inwardly for lying to her, he still forced a smile on his face as he answered cheerfully, "How have you been Ishikawa? You're smile is still the sa as back then. It's still pretty."
And just as Sumire was about answer, Akashi and the rest of the guys interrupted their reunion.
Previously it was Hiro who was acting jealous. But now it was Akashi who was getting jealous.
"It's all great to see that you two have finally reunited after such a long ti. But how long are we going to stay here? The amusent park will close at 5." Akashi sneered.
Both Hiro and Sumire burst into laughter as both of them said to each other, "Let's head inside."
'Here goes my chance of having a girlfriend.' Akashi wailed inwardly.
Witnessing them acting so friendly with eachother, Akashi could instinctively tell that once again the girl he liked was about to get stolen from him.
Thus he made a long face as he began to have so depressing thoughts.
Akashi's long face was noticed by Endo and Rin. And witnessing his long face, they couldn't help but pity him.
Even the other girl who was accompanying Sumire felt pitiful about Akashi's condition. Thus while walking towards the entrance of the amusent park, she whispered softly, "You'll get another girl." while trying to cheer him up.
Even though Sumire studied in the sa school as Akashi, she was of different section. Thus, even Akashi barely knew her.
However Sumire was the friend of the other girl. And that other girl was Akashi's classmate.
Akashi had to go through extre lengths to convince the other girl to bring Sumire to the amusent park.
