Chapter 5 - His Private Time
A few days later... The full moon was shining softly on the town at night. I was walking in the silent town with Ronald-san.
Ronald: Aah! Since I've been doing nothing, but investigating before coming to this world, this fulfilling private time has been the best!
After finishing his part time work at the bar, Ronald-san was walking lightly.
MC: What do you usually do in your private time?
Ronald: Going to mixers. I especially get motivated when the secretarial department gets involved.
MC: ...Is that so?
(Mixers... Ronald-san talks so brightly, so he must be popular.)
When I thought of that, I felt a slight pain in my chest somehow.
(Huh... What was that?)
Ronald: Ah, since I'm here, I want to see the girls in this world. Hey, can you introduce some to me?
He asked me that lightheartedly.
(Ronald-san wants me to introduce him to some girls...)
Unable to come up with a response, I didn't say anything and...
Ronald: ...It's been a while since I've met a girl like you.
MC: ...?
When I raised my face, our eyes met as he was looking at me.
MC: Ah...
His mischievous smile made my heart throb...
Last Chapter - Beyond the Night
As a slightly cool breeze blew through the town at night...
Ronald: ...It's been a while since I've met a girl like you.
His mischievous smile made my heart throb...
(What's wrong with me...)
For some reason, I couldn't bring myself to look away from him...
Ronald: ...
When he suddenly took out a small box from his pocket, he opened it.
MC: ...! This is...
Inside the box was a brooch that had a shiny green jewel on it. It was the brooch that I was looking at from when we were trying to find a clue for him to get back to his former world.
Ronald: You were making a nice face at that time. These are my feelings of gratitude for everything up till now put together!
When he happily smiled, I became filled with both happiness and embarrassment.
MC: But... I feel bad.
Ronald: Hmm. Well, even though I'll have to go back someday... In exchange for this present, let's enjoy our refreshing private time to the fullest!
MC: Eh...
As his eyes happily narrowed behind his glasses, he grabbed my hand.
......
After Ronald-san escorted me through town to his heart's content... We enjoyed some dinner at a trendy restaurant.
Ronald: Ah, we sure played a lot! I just can't stand working till late at night!
After saying that, Ronald-san held the glass of alcohol.
Ronald: Well, once again. Cheers, to our private time!
MC: Cheers!
When we drank the alcohol at the same time, the slightly bitter adult taste was slowly spreading throughout my body.
Ronald: Mm, this is the best!
Looking at him making a satisfied smile while drinking alcohol gave me some enjoyment as well.
MC: Ronald-san, you really are fun.
Ronald: Isn't it obvious to have fun? Besides, we're on a date.
MC: ...!
What he said without any hesitation made my heart skip a beat.
(A date...)
The moment I realized it, I became embarrassed that i looked away from him. Aware of how hot my cheeks were, I gently touched the box that he gave me earlier.
(...There's no way that it contains any special meaning or anything, right?)
I told that to myself, but my heart was going very fast.
Ronald: Every one of your reactions is so innocent.
MC: Eh...
When I raised my face in surprise, our eyes met as Ronald-san was looking at me gently.
Ronald: Do you have someone you like?
MC: Eh...
When I looked back at Ronald-san, I became speechless.
(Someone I like...)
Unsure on what I should say as he was in front of me, I shook my head.
MC: ...No.
After Ronald-san thought about something a little when I said that, he spoke calmly.
Ronald: Hmm. In that case.
Ronald-san's face approached me...
Ronald: What about me?
MC: ...!
My cheeks instantly became hot.
Ronald: Huh? Your face is red. Ah, could it be that it doesn't sound that bad to you?
When he said that, he caressed my hair naturally. The numbing sweet sensation was spreading throughout my body from his hand.
MC: P-Please don't tease me... ...!
Just as I closed my eyes tightly by reflex, something soft touched my lips.
(Just now...)
When I slowly opened my eyes, Ronald-san was looking at me calmly.
(Did he... kiss me?)
I softly touched my own lips that were warm.
Ronald: Well, we don't know when I'll be going back to my former world. So, I might not have much time left.
After saying that, he wrapped his hand around my waist and pulled me towards him.
MC: ...
Ronald: Won't you hang out with me for a bit longer tonight?
As he looked at me with his captivating eyes, I couldn't bring myself to say anything else.
(Even though I know that he's only teasing me...)
Ronald: ...Okay?
As if a spell had been casted on me, I casually returned a nod.
(My heart is so loud...)
He happily smiled and drank from the glass again...
