Takatsuki
Aika decided to go out together just before Chihiro and Riko returned home...
one third of the way through August. It took some time to persuade Hana, and
with Aika, it was difficult to arrange the schedule, which is why it took so
long.
「As
I listened to your story, I became interested in this Takatsuki-san」
That's
what Hana said when she finally agreed to accompany him.
He
doesn't know what tugged at Hana's heartstrings, but he was glad that the
conversation was going well, and he and Riko made sure not to do anything
unnecessary.
Then,
on the appointed day.
「Good
morning, Izumi-kun」
Aika
is dressed in a light dress, with a small bag in her hand and a separate,
larger sports bag. Her hair fluffy as usual, she turned up at the rendezvous
point.
She
smiled at Chihiro and then looked at the three figures standing behind him in
turn.
**a
「Then
Riko-chan, Fukami-san and... Mishuku-san, good morning」
She
smiled at them with her usual warm smile.
「Uh,
yeah」
「...Yes,
good morning, Takatsuki-san」
「Hello」
Riko
replies a little self-consciously, and Maria replies a moment later with a
polite smile. Hana, unconcerned, bowed her head from a distance.
The
girls are also dressed in their casual clothes.
Maria
in a black one-piece dress, Hana in a white one, Riko in a shirt, denim shorts
and her usual choker. Chihiro, by the way, is wearing the outfit that Riko
picked out for him beforehand.
「Let's
go, then」
「Yes,
sure」
Chihiro
nodded to Aika, who gently urged him, and started walking.
The
five of them are headed for the pool. The pool is the second largest in the
area, and they meet in front of the nearest station. They avoided the biggest
pool because it would definitely be crowded this time of year.
...Well,
the second one might be just as good.
It
was mainly Chihiro's idea to go to the pool. Aika didn't have any particular
wish, so she chose it while listening to Riko and others' wishes.
The
deciding factors were mainly time and budget.
Going
to the beach is quite far, and a day trip is not realistic. Chihiro was willing
to pay for Aika's portion, but it was a little difficult to pay for the
accommodation.
The
mountain, on the other hand, is easy to get to from the nearest station of the
school, but that's why it's not worth it. In addition, the image of that
mountain is something for adults to climb as a hobby.
A
fireworks festival or a test of courage. If they went there, there would be no
mood, and it would be a little dangerous to go in the dark when Hana is there,
so it is better to avoid it.
Therefore,
it was decided to go to the pool.
Currently,
Aika is in a good mood.
She
didn't complain when the schedule was adjusted by e-mail, and she wrote
"I'm looking forward to it". In fact, she is walking next to Chihiro
with a smile on her face.
That
said, there are some concerns. She is too quiet.
He
wonders what happened to her in the classroom at the closing ceremony. What's
going on in her mind when she meets Maria and the others?
It's
tempting to look into her mind, but it seems like a bad idea to do so now.
Chihiro
is sure that the girls behind him are even more awkward than he is.
And
he glances back at them.
The
three of them are following Chihiro and Aika, each with a subtle sense of
tension.
When
he was relieved that Hana was quiet for the moment, a voice came from next to
him.
「Are
you worried about Riko-chan and the others?」
「Yeah.
Uh, yeah.」
「Yeah,
I guess so. They're Izumi-kun's slaves」
The
word "slave" came out of Aika's mouth, and Chihiro os startled.
Aika's
expression barely moved.
And
yet, the impression he got from her changed drastically to the same one as that
time.
「"Everyone",
is "that" right? The three of them?」
「Uh,
yeah」
「I
see. So, you kept your promise」
With
that, Aika let the mysterious pressure dissipate.
All
that remained is a gentle, soft, normal girl.
「Oh,
we're almost there」
Aika
said as if nothing had happened, and Chihiro couldn't help but feel something
akin to fear.
Anyway.
The
five of them arrived at the entrance of the facility. They paid the fee and
went inside. The changing rooms are separate for men and women, so they are
separated from Aika and the others here.
He
wonders if they will be okay.
Chihiro
can't hear the conversation going on in the women's locker room. And he can't
interfere with them. While feeling a little uneasy, he took off his clothes and
changed into his swimsuit.
A
man's change of clothes does not take much time.
And
after changing, he made sure to lock his locker to prevent anyone from taking
his valuables. As expected, Aika and the others had not yet arrived.
He
had told them that they would meet near the entrance, so he waited for a while.
Thinking
it would be a waste of time to just wait, he checked out the food stalls
available in the facility. It's not a good idea to get shaved ice and drinks
here. And he wanted something that would not fill him up too much and that he
could share with others.
So,
he bought french fries from one of the stalls.
When
he came back, Aika and the others had just arrived. Is it imagination, or is
the tension increasing again?
**b
「Oh,
Chihiro, you're eating something!」
Riko,
who noticed Chihiro, spotted the fries and ran up to him. She smiled, took one
from the bag, and threw it into her mouth.
「Thanks.
These are rather tasty」
「I
see. That's good」
Then
Aika walks up to him.
「Izumi-kun,
can I have one too?」
「Yes.
Sure.」
「Thank
you.」
And
Maria said, "I'll have some too". Then, Hana also said, "You're
not going to leave me out, are you?" and she took a piece of fries.
Before
he knew it, there is only one piece left, and Chihiro picked it up and threw
the paper bag into a nearby trash can.
At
this point, he finally looked intently at the girls.
Each
of them is wearing a different style of outfit.
Maria
is wearing a black one-piece type. And it's surprising that she didn't expose
more of her body, but seeing her luscious body wrapped in a swimsuit, it makes
sense. After all, if she wore a bikini, she would have attracted all the men's
attention and it would have been impossible for her to have fun.
Riko
is wearing a lime yellow two-piece. Although the fabric area is thin, the color
is rather plain, and as a result, it gives a strong active impression. It
matches her hair color, which is a typical choice for her.
Hana's
swimsuit is a two-tone black and white two-piece with a fluttering skirt on
top. Perhaps she couldn't give up both her cuteness and her lack of exposure.
...On
Riko and Hana's stomachs, the slave marks can be seen, but they are so small
that they are not so noticeable. The pattern is too complicated for others to
see it as anything more than a bruise.
And
Aika is wearing a two-piece, very light pink swimsuit.
A
darker shade would have made her look more attractive, but she kept the color
light.
She
does not have a body as attractive to men as Maria. She is also not as healthy
and sexy as Riko, and not as delicate as Hana. That's why she has an ordinary
girlishness, which matches her atmosphere.
