The girl's soft voice came over, "... Yusuke? Ah, it's really close. Mmm, it's okay, it feels so comfortable~"
A soft "Hua~" sound with a vague sense of pain and pleasure sounded from the other side of the fence, causing him to smile knowingly and say "That's good" in agreement.
Swish, swish, swish, swish.
The sound of paddling comes from far to near...
Dong Dong~
The sound of wood knocking sounded in my ears.
"Yusuke?"
"What's wrong?
"Ah, the voice sounds lazy...no, is there anyone over there?"
"It's just me now, where are you?" Yusuke Kato asked casually, putting a towel on his forehead, his tone indescribably lazy.
Sayu smiled and replied, "It's the same here," and then joked: "What? Yusuke is like an uncle now, making people feel so lethargic."
"This is the state of bathing in a hot spring."
"——Although that's the case, I really want to take a picture of your current expression. It must be very interesting~"
"Where's the fun in this kind of thing?"
"Hey~~ It's really interesting. I have collected them all, such as the expressions when eating, the expressions when dating, the expressions when sleeping, and the expressions when changing clothes."
"Wait a minute." Yusuke hummed after hearing this: "Have you even taken a picture of that kind of thing??"
"Ah! It's too much to say such things. These are very precious memories!" the girl retorted gloomily.
"That's not the problem. Let's not talk about the first two. When were the last two photos taken?"
Facing his questioning, Sayu just replied with a smile, "Knowing (Greek milk)", obviously not wanting to say more.
Kato Yusuke then calmed down and his brain began to spin.
In fact, apart from having the same model of mobile phones, the two of them knew each other's passwords, but they didn't go out of their way to look at each other's phones.
But considering that the other party revealed something in his words, he thought he might be able to take a look at what was in the precious photo album the girl mentioned.
At this time...
"Let me say it first-"
As if she guessed his thoughts, Sayu suddenly said: "I can show you the phone, but if the photos in it are deleted, I will cry, Yusuke."
The look of tears dripping from the corners of his eyes suddenly appeared in front of his eyes.
"..."
Kato Yusuke was speechless for a while, his body half lying on the smooth yet rough rock wall as if he suddenly lost all strength.
"I know, I won't do that. So besides those, did you take any other photos?"
“Hmm——~~The rest are just some of the things I usually take, such as delicious desserts, convenience stores where I work, photos with Asami, and when I’m wearing a maid uniform...
"
Sayu paused temporarily at this point, and then asked in a subtle and light tone: "Speaking of which, Yusuke, what kind of clothes would you like me to wear? Like a uniform, a maid outfit, a swimsuit, even an apron... Although I'm a little shy,
But as long as you like it, I can wear it for you."
'Is there anything to be ashamed of about an apron? You wear it every day...' Kato Yusuke thought to himself, and replied: "It's not cosplay, you can wear whatever you want."
After that, he stopped talking about this topic and discussed with the girl what to have for dinner next.
Had a pretty comfortable time.
Seeing that it was almost time to have dinner, he called Sayu to leave together.
They bought strawberry milk and coffee milk from the vending machine in the public rest area. The two of them planned to eat the local specialty cold soup udon noodles and pork steamed buns (actually steamed buns) as they had just discussed.
However, after seeing the menu with his own eyes, Sayu, who seemed to have discovered something, unexpectedly changed his mind.
Following the girl's wishes, the food that was finally served to their table was...
"...Curry rice??" Kato Yusuke couldn't help but raise his head and cast his surprised eyes to the opposite side.
"It's soup curry ~ soup curry." Sayu put her fist on her lips and said with a chuckle: "Although it's also curry, it's a local dish in Hokkaido. I didn't expect it to be available in this store.
"
"Hokkaido... soup curry?" He looked at the bowl with a whole chicken cutlet leg and various vegetables and asked: "Is there any difference?"
"Well - the so-called soup curry is curry where you can taste the soup. The soup that overwhelms the ingredients is its specialty. It is a kind of stew. It is also sold in convenience stores. Yusuke hasn't tried it before?"
Using a spoon to scoop up a spoonful of thin brown soup from the bowl, Kato Yusuke responded: "Although I know this exists, I have always chosen ordinary curry in the past."
"That's it~" the girl who nodded explained: "To be honest, soup curry has the same taste and aroma as ordinary curry, but it is not as thick. It is a bowl of thick soup with various vegetables and meat.
.
But its soup is made from chicken bones, kombu, spices and some medicinal materials. It tastes not only with the spicy aroma of curry, but also with the rich taste of stock. It is said that it was used as a medicinal dish in the past and is very nourishing."
After hearing this, Yusuke couldn't help but glance at Sayu, and saw a little nostalgia in his eyes, so he deliberately cooperated and continued.
"It sounds delicious, but I don't think I've seen you cook this kind of food before."
"Ahaha, I've never done it before. After all, I didn't know if Yusuke would like it at the time, so I just followed the normal approach."
Sayu, who was laughing, picked up the spoon and stirred it in his bowl.
Bah la la.
The sound of metal scraping against porcelain sounded right next to the bowl.
"——But because I used to eat this kind of food a lot, I just want Yusuke to try it too. Can't you...?"
A pair of amber eyes looked over, and there seemed to be some emotion that had not subsided, which seemed a little gloomy.
Kato Yusuke's heart skipped a beat, and he said: "I wouldn't doubt it if you cooked it yourself, but the soup curry in Saitama Prefecture might not be authentic, right? It might lower my rating.
indefinite."
"Well, I think it would be better to make an evaluation after personally tasting it. If it tastes really unpleasant, I will give you magic that can make the food delicious~"
"What does magic mean?" someone asked.
Sayu turned his head slightly, put his index finger on his lower lip and said, "For example, something like a pocky game?"
"...That's a challenging game where you feel like you're about to encounter something but you won't, right?"
"What does it have to do with you? You don't have to worry about this kind of thing with Yusuke. Why don't you go too far and I'll be fine with it? I'll take care of it all, all of it?"
Facing the girl who deliberately spoke these words in a meaningful tone, Kato Yusuke felt that his strong will was being challenged, so he said in a loud voice:
"——Which cadre do you think cannot withstand such a test??"
"...cadre? You mean Yusuke?" Sayu frowned slightly, "What a strange statement. Besides, if you have other preferences, you can tell me."
"Okay! It's decided, let's challenge something different tonight."
"Eh--……?"
After being stunned for a brief moment, the girl lifted her hair from her ears and asked with a blushing face: "Um, what is different means...?"
o(*////▽////*)q
Kato Yusuke poured the rice into the soup curry in the bowl, stirred it back and forth like eating soup rice, and then said: "After we finish eating, we will use the table tennis here to decide the winner."
Negative, let me show you what ancestral craftsmanship is."
"pingpong?"
(((o(*?▽?*)o)))
"Um."
"...Is that the sport of hitting the ball back and forth with a racket?"
(＾◇＾)
"That's right."
"…………"
!?(?_?;?
There was a wordless silence.
“After that, you can use the massage chair to relax your body.”
"…………?"
The scene went blank for more than ten seconds.
Immediately afterwards——
(*｀へ′*)
"Hey~ Yusuke."
Sayu looked at him with a kind smile and said, "Shouldn't your XP be your legs?"
"..."
When someone looks at his eyes, his nose and his heart, his mind is as calm as water.
