chapter 23
23 – Flowering Ohana
All good. All good, lap pillow??
Isn’t that something special people do?
Ohana smiled and said while I was putting on a puzzled expression.
“Now, now. Are you okay? My knees are so comfortable…… ?”
I can’t help but say that.
I lay down on Ohana quietly, resting her head on her lap.
A strangely close distance.
Ohana was dyeing her face red.
“Ehehehe…… How are you feeling, Kim?”
“Uh…… Yeah, I don’t think it’s bad.”
“Cha-am, is that how you feel? Too much…….”
To be honest, I don’t know if I’m in a bad mood.
Because she’s normal, even if she’s a childhood friend, in fact, she’s about Ohana, so she’s definitely a level that can be called a pretty girl.
In a love comedy, the label itself is a validation label that makes no sense.
Is that why?
This situation felt strange.
Isn’t this what youth really is?
Because I was possessed by the love comedy world, I never thought that this kind of situation would happen to me.
I could feel the soft texture of Ohana’s skin.
Ohana lightly tapped her on the head, she said.
“You are nice, Mr. Kim.”
“Are you treating me like a kid?” ….”
“So, don’t you like it?”
Ohana grinned as she asked me.
Common sense suggests that there is no man who would not like it when a woman puts a pillow for her lap.
It’s just that I’ve never experienced it before when it happens to me, so I’m just dizzy.
Because she had spent her entire life doing part-time work and was chewing on her, she had never held her woman’s hand properly.
How can a guy with no immunity to women maintain his composure in a situation like this?
Even if I had trained to control my mind, it was possible because it wasn’t any different than usual.
This sudden sweetness was enough to paralyze her brain.
“De, that… ….”
“I…… Mr. Kim.”
“Ah! Uh, yes what’s the matter? Tell me, Kamiyama.”
“I wish we could have a good relationship now…… That, yes How about doing Yobiste? Mr. Kim.”
“Yo, Yobiste?”
Really, once you come in, you’ll be hooked. I didn’t think it would be like this.
Yobiste…… You want to call each other by first names?
To decide on a title or something.
I wondered, so I asked Ohana.
“That, like talking to Natsuki?”
“Yeah, just like talking to Ryu-chan.”
“Can I ask why you thought that?”
This needs confirmation.
More than anything, there was a situation where Ohana often couldn’t hear her when she was talking to me.
She might be able to hear her now.
“Yeah, that’s…… Mmm.”
Ohana was hesitant about her answer. I can’t help but feel ashamed
But I have to listen too.
“If you talked about Yobiste first, I thought it would be good for me to hear about it too.”
“So, again…… I want to get to know you.”
“Is that all? There must be more reasons.”
When I questioned Ohana as if asking her, she took a deep breath before opening her mouth.
“The person who was nice to me…… You were second, Mr. Kim.”
As if she was confessing, Ohana’s voice trembled.
Is that so……
No matter how much you read the work with affection, you cannot know the point of view of all the characters.
When Ryunosuke is with the heroine, the other heroines may be doing something.
Some heroines can be analogized to some extent, but did Ohana have such a thing?
Coming to think of it, Ryuunosuke never gave her a present. Except for the gimmick that Ohana is just a childhood friend living next door to her, her presence in the work was at an air level.
I just unilaterally bumped into Ohana first, and I just tried my best.
In a situation where Amelia couldn’t be saved, she couldn’t even save the hearts of the other heroines.
In the end, if it was a love comedy, I really hated the ending with one person.
“Okay, then I’ll call you by my first name. Hana-chan.”
“Yes…… Huh? To? Really?”
“As long as you call me by name, well, if you allow me, I can do anything.”
If this can make her feel better, she won’t mind doing it.
Ah, come to think of it.
There was one more.
“Hana-chan.”
“Yeah, what happened? Ken-chan.”
“Ken…… Chan?”
“Ah, was the tone bad? I feel cute…… “
Since Ohana is my first name, it has a string in it, so I think she changed it to Ken.
But she has a better way of singing than that.
“Since I said we should do Yobi Ste, if possible, don’t call her that way and call her by her first name. My name is Hyunjin.”
“Ah, that’s a bit embarrassing…… Then, to Jin-chan…… “
“…… Yes, do as you please.”
As long as it’s Jin-chan, it’s fine, isn’t it?
I think it’s about time.
I put my hands in my pockets while lying down.
“Eh? What are you doing? Jin-chan…… “
“Oh, this. Don’t get me wrong…… Hana-chan, I bought it for you.”
I took out the white ribbon hairband that I had packed in my pocket. It was well packaged, so there was nothing bent or anything like that.
“This is a gift. Would you like to try it?”
“Eh…… Gift?”
“Yes, it’s a hairband, but I bought it because it looked good.”
Ohana looked at the hair band I gave her, and she looked back and forth between me and the hair band with a look of disbelief over and over again.
“Really, are you giving? This?”
“Sure. I bought it for you…… “
Before I could finish my words, water suddenly fell on my face.
“Huh, huh. Huang.”
When she came to her senses, Ohana was crying and her tears were falling. She
Startled, she stood up and opened her mouth.
“Gwa, are you okay? Hana-chan?”
“Such a gift…… This is the first time, Jin-chan.”
“But that’s true, I never thought I’d cry. Sorry if you didn’t like it.”
I wonder if such a gift was unpleasant after all. Tsk, you should choose a good gift.
Aren’t you feeling like the main character of a love comedy?
I must have gifted something like this before…….
I thought so, but a completely different answer came back.
“No, Jin-chan! I’m crying because I’m really happy I’ve never received a gift like this since I was born…… !”
“I didn’t cry because I was displeased. I’m glad!”
“You can never be offended! Jin-chan is stupid…… !”
Even though Ohana shed tears, she started laughing again.
“Hana-chan, you know what? They say that when she laughs after she cries, her ass gets horny.”
“What, what are you saying! Jin-chan is an idiot!”
Ohana hit her shoulder with her hand.
She wasn’t sick.
I just went through this situation…… When I was in school, I felt like I was receiving a reward that I hadn’t received, so I laughed unconsciously.
I thought it was a guy like this in a love comedy.
I had never experienced what youth meant before, so I didn’t know. Was it this sweet?
She seemed to lose her mind in the atmosphere so sweet that her teeth would rot.
“Today was fun, Hana-chan.”
“I’m glad you said that, Jin-chan.”
It felt like spring had come to my frozen heart.
***
Meanwhile.
There was someone watching Hyunjin and Ohana’s picnic.
The person who stared at the screen of the monitor until his eyes fell out is…… It was Amelia Iori Lionheart.
“Really, what! That expression!”
Amelia couldn’t help but get angry when she saw Hyunjin smiling broadly.
It’s the same this time. It was hard to hear, but there were words that came to Amelia’s ears in particular.
Jin-chan, Hana-chan.
Amelia found out about the site of Yobiste.
“…… I’m sorry, Hyunjin.”
It was an expression she had never shown herself.
No, I did show it correctly, but it was a little different.
It can be seen as the difference between happiness and love.
The expression Hyunjin gave to Ohana was love.
Hyunjin’s expression when he was with Amelia was happiness.
Amelia knows the difference.
“No, this is nonsense. It can’t be…… ?”
She says she likes Hyunjin?
No. Hyunjin is clearly a servant, and above all, the emotion he had at the point when he decided to hire him as a servant was sympathy.
Hyeonjin, a proud daughter of the Lionheart family, and Hyunjin, a mere servant, who is now called an apprentice butler.
A romance between a young lady and a butler?
I used to see it often in books, but I didn’t think that would happen.
Isn’t it actually like that?
Because Hyunjin knows that he doesn’t think of himself as a romantic partner.
Is that why?
Amelia couldn’t contain her resentment.
“Ohana. What is the difference between you and me…… ?”
Why is it that other people are receiving the attention that Hyunjin should be giving?
There was nothing Amelia could do in that situation. If you unwillingly interfere with Hyunjin’s going out, you will control him.
Revenge for such a heinous act will only damage Amelia’s pride.
She couldn’t be so restrained, but Amelia was a little resentful that she was watching this situation.
All she can do now is call Hyunjin home.
What next?
Even if it was removed, even Amelia could feel that something was already blooming between them.
“Yes, bee. I’m punishing you…… !”
Amelia’s head started spinning.
This is not jealousy. It is natural. That’s unpleasant, because her own possessions aren’t focused on her.
Trying to deny her rising feelings, Amelia pulled out her smart phone.
