　I stare fixedly at the amber eyes.

Kousuke-kun removes his right hand from his mouth and looks back at me.

Then, just a little, he sends his gaze behind me.

He must be looking at Chako.

"… Naba. We met not long ago at this school, right?"

　Kousuke-kun looks at me again and says.

Gazing back at the shaking amber eyes, I giggle.

"That's right. A week before. We ended up in the same cla.s.s not long ago."

"I see, that's right… Yeah."

　Kousuke-kun's eyes close as though he's thinking, and he slowly nods.

Those eyes then open.

"… Naba says strange things."

　Orange hair bathes in the light and s.h.i.+ne.

The amber eyes no longer shake.

"But… I kind of understand."

　Saying that, he smiles gently.

"I'll join the Photography Club… even though it's super unpleasant that big bro's the adviser."

"Un… Thanks."

"Nah… Well, I don't think it will be bad if it's with Naba and co."

"Un. I guarantee there will be lots of fun things."

　Kousuke-kun laughs too when I chuckle.

The face that's wreathed in smiles is truly nostalgic.

　I must appear to be an extremely strange person to the Kousuke-kun without memories.

Even so, as long as I can spend the days with Kousuke-kun.

"… Hey."

"What is it?"

"Do siblings have similar preferences?"

"… Huh?"

　When I took the opportunity to ask, Kousuke-kun frowns at my abrupt words like he didn't understand what I meant.

Finding that strange, I end things by laughing.

While laughing, I look towards Chako and Yuusei-kun.

They are looking at us with unpleasant smirks.

"Chako. What are you smiling about?"

"Eh. Naw. Nothing much~. Right?"

"Yeah."

　Chako and Yuusei-kun exchange meaningful glances and laugh.

These two were undoubtedly talking about something unwholesome.

Glaring at such a two, I gesture at Kousuke-kun with my hand.

Translated by nakimus.h.i.+tl

"… You know, it seems he'll join the Photography Club with us."

"I see~, good for you, huh~? Aah, even though it failed when I invited him~. I seeee."

"… He thought about joining because Chako invited him, you know?"

"I seeee, I seeee."

　She's not listening to me at all.

Laughing "Ehihi", she's nodding with a triumphant look.

"Sheesh, You aren't listening, are you, Chako! … Yuusei-kun, get going to the Occult Research Club! You may get club members, you know?"

"I won't. That place was made to place doc.u.ments I can't leave at home after all."

"Even then, a club is a club, right?"

　"Get going!" I drive Yuusei-kun out one way or another.

Yuusei-kun laughs like he's having fun and leaves the cla.s.sroom.

Chako's unpleasant smile has also settled down. Fuu, I give a small sigh.

Then, turning to face Chako and Kousuke-kun again, "Oh, yes!" I speak.

"You know, since we're joining the same club, can I call you Kousuke-kun?"

"Ahh, you have a point… there's, another Kuo in the Photography Club after all."

"Ah, the teacher, was it? It's better that I call you by name too, right~? … Un, Kousuke-chan it is then!"

　Chako laughs "Ehehe" while calling his name in that nostalgic way.呼び名

Kousuke-kun's eyes widen for a moment, before he gives a troubled smile.

Translated by nakimus.h.i.+tl

"Somehow… it's nostalgic." [Kousuke]

"It goes, "Guu" doesn't it?" [Yui]

"What's that even mean." [Kousuke]

　Kousuke-kun gives an exasperated smile when I chuckle.

"Ah, you can call me by name too~."

"Name?"

"Yeah. Ah, I should've told Yuusei-chan too. I hate 'Tomonaga' so I'd like to be called 'Chako'."

　Chako's blue eyes s.h.i.+ne mischievously.

Kousuke-kun panics for a while, sighs, then mutters her name.

"Chako."

"Un."

"Chako."

"Nn?"

"… Chako."

"Nah, nothing's gonna come out even if you call so many times!"

　Chako frowns at the Kousuke-kun calling her name again and again, as though to digest it.

Amused at such a duo, I laugh "Ahaha" and take the bag on my table.

　Having succeeded at inviting Kousuke-kun to the Photography Club, the three of us are going to partic.i.p.ate in the briefing session.

Although sensei was surprised that Kousuke-kun came, I think those eyes look happy.

After the briefing session, just like before, I went to sensei's side somewhat forcibly and consulted him about the camera.

Unlike Kousuke-kun, sensei's an adult so his ears won't turn red even when Chako laughs "Ehehe".

However, the SmiPhen might have occurred[1], I believe.

"Well then, Chako, I'm going to the Student Council."

"Eh!"

Translated by nakimus.h.i.+tl

　To the Chako who was told to come along and consult sensei about the camera, I inform her of an unamusing matter.[2]

Chako gets fl.u.s.tered, "I'm going alone!?" but I reply with a chuckle.

"Ah, Kousuke-kun, you'll go with Chako, right?"

"… Yeah."

"Nah, that's pointless. Rather, that's worse. Nooo I don't want to sit on a bed of thorns!"

　Cautious about the girls' gazes, Chako's in fear but I laugh and wave a hand at that.

"It will be fine. Chako can tide over it."

"Ehh. It's not about tiding over or not, I don't want to stand on the waves in the first place!"

"Kousuke-kun will be asking sensei about the camera too, it will be fine, it will be fine."

"Nooo, I want Yui-chan!"

　Chako says "Don't gooo" but I laugh "Ahaha" and turn my feet towards the Student Council room.

Kousuke-kun and sensei.

Their relations.h.i.+p is strained but it should somehow turn out fine with Chako there.

… They have similar preferences after all.

　I've spoken to the Student Council before so I easily became their clerk.

The Tomotaksenpai I haven't seen in a long time is, as always, like a prince…

Thinking about what I must do from now on, I clench my fist again.

[1] In a previous round.

[2] I'm honestly confused at this part. I guess the order goes: 1. Yui asked Chako to consult sensei too. 2. Yui consulted sensei, Chako hasn't yet. 3. Yui informs Chako she's leaving. Or it could be 2, 1, 3?
