My youth romance is always confusing

After a sleepless night, the Hikigaya family ushered in a new day again.

"Good morning, Hikigaya-kun."

As soon as I walked out of the room, I saw Yukinoshita busy in the kitchen.

Hearing the noise behind her, Yukino smiled at Hachiman.

"Oh, good morning."

After waking up, I always feel like Yukinoshita is a different person, especially after what happened last night....

No, you can’t think about it.

Just a little recollection will allow you to feel the warmth of skin against skin. Although there are two layers of clothing between them, that vague touch still lingers in your mind, especially since Yukinoshita's figure now is no longer the same as it was back then.

So I stuttered.

"Are you okay? You've started cooking so early."

Yukino ignored Hachiman's question and continued to deal with the ingredients in her hands.

"There's no problem at all."

She gave Hachiman a reluctant answer while playing with the potato in her hand.

It looks like he's not fully recovered yet, but this guy is still quite stubborn to some extent.

But I had no intention of snatching the work from her hands. Well, the first reason was that although she was a little bit stubborn, she should be able to handle such small matters. The second reason was of course what happened last night, which made me feel a little hesitant to continue being alone with this girl.

"Then I'll go do the laundry first."

After saying that, I quickly slipped into the bathroom.

"Huh~huh~"

Someone looks happy in the kitchen.

"Little Yuna, it's time to eat, get up quickly."

In the bathroom, I listened to Yukinoshita's slightly happy voice.

this woman.

Ugh.

I realized that when I faced this group of mature women who were at least ten years older than me, I had almost no ability to fight back and could only behave myself and be a herbivore.

Damn it, when will Hikigaya Hachiman stand up?

So I started to attack Yukinoshita's clothes, who didn't resist.

How sad for me.

After eating the breakfast made by Yukinoshita, I took little Yuna to kindergarten.

"Bon Voyage."

This time it was Yukinoshita who saw me off at the door.

"Well, see you then."

After yesterday's heavy rain, the weather became a little cooler today and my mood became less irritable.

After leaving little Yuna with the kindergarten teacher, I was about to drive home when I received an email.

FromMikazuki Nanami

To Hachiman

【I hope you are alright, senior. 】

Huh? What kind of nonsense is this?

It can’t be something about work, right? Never mind. Too much talk leads to mistakes.

After reading the email, I put my phone aside and planned to drive home to take care of the patient.

"Drip-drip-"

"Really? Who is it this time?"

As if God was trying to stop me from going home, before I could even start the car, the phone rang again.

"Hey?"

"Aha, Hikigaya."

The voice of Mr. Hiratsuka came from the other end of the line. Did he sound a little happy?

"What's wrong, teacher? What's the matter with calling in broad daylight?"

"Nothing, I just want to go out for a meal together, ramen, ramen."

This ramen queen is still the same.

If it were any other day, I would have followed Hiratsuka-sensei, after all, I am also a ramen lover, but today I can't.

"Teacher, I can't do that today. There's a sick person at home who needs me to go back and take care of her and let her rest."

"Is Yukinoshita sick? Don't worry, someone here will take the initiative to take care of her."

Shizuka Hiratsuka looked at Haruno who was ready to leave and gave her a thumbs up.

Nice job.

a piece of cake.

Yang Nai replied.

“Someone…”

There's no need for Mr. Hiratsuka to tell me who that person is, I can guess who that person is with my eyes closed.

"Let that guy take care of Yukinoshita. I'm afraid the condition will only get worse. So let's just forget it."

"What are you talking about, Hikigaya? Isn't it normal for an older sister to take care of her younger sister?"

That's true, but that person is not reassuring in every sense.

However, even though I think so, what Mr. Hiratsuka said is indeed reasonable and there is no room for argument.

"Then I'll talk to Yukinoshita first."

Hachiman sighed and hung up the phone. After a while, Hiratsuka Shizuka sent the meeting address.

FromHachiman

To Yukino

[I'm going to go out with Mr. Hiratsuka for a while. Your sister will be back soon. Take care. ]

FromYukino

To Hachiman

[Got it, come back early. ]

Seeing that the patient had no objection, I turned off my phone again.

By the way, Hiratsuka-sensei actually asked me out for ramen. With the age gap between us, we are like mother and son.

Never mind. There's nothing to be embarrassed about.

The streets were a little congested in the morning, cars were driving very slowly on the road, and pedestrians getting ready for work could be seen everywhere. Under such traffic conditions, it took me nearly half an hour to reach the address given by Mr. Hiratsuka.

——This ramen shop is really big.

Different from the traditional small ramen shops, the shop that Mr. Hiratsuka arranged to eat at is obviously more upscale and formal. The decoration is closer to modern society than the original traditional style. The seats inside are not directly facing the front desk like in many small shops, but are separated tables like in ordinary restaurants. If you look closely, you will see that there are several private rooms.

Following the private room number given by Mr. Hiratsuka, I walked to the door and pushed it open.

"Ah, Xiaoqi is here."

"Ya hello!"

In addition to Shizuka Hiratsuka, there were a few "old friends" in the room.

"Yuigahama, Ebina, Miura, and Kawasaki... What's going on, Mr. Hiratsuka?"

I thought I was just going to eat some ramen and then explore where else there is delicious ramen nearby.

I didn't expect this to turn into a small class reunion.

"Ah, Hikigaya, you're here."

The culprit, Hiratsuka Shizuka, was secretly laughing when she saw Hachiman was stunned for a moment.

"Come on, come on, sit down first."

Shizuka Hiratsuka immediately pulled Hachiman to her side.

There's no choice. Since I'm here now, I've got to go with the flow.

I sat next to the teacher and straightened myself.

"Didn't you say that the ramen is delicious? Why did you come to this place?"

"Well, actually this is a new store opened by the owner of the store I always went to when I was a teacher at Sobu High School. Although it doesn't just sell ramen now, the taste is still guaranteed."

Shizuka Hiratsuka patted Hachiman's shoulder with a smile and recommended the store to him.

Hey, why do you feel so strong, Mr. Hiratsuka?

"You guys really have some free time."

I looked at the four people in front of me, all of whom were old acquaintances I had met once before.

Miura and Kawasaki had never gotten along well, but now with Yuigahama and Ebina around, as well as Hiratsuka-sensei who was like an elder, the two of them didn't confront each other anymore. However, the two of them didn't talk much either.

So when Hachiman came in just now, only Yuigahama and Ebina greeted him.

"Well, isn't Hikio also free? Ebina and I work together and we just had a half-month vacation recently. If we have the chance to join in the fun, we can come out together."

Although there was someone he didn't get along with here, most of them were his friends. The more cheerful Miura chose to take the initiative to talk to Hachiman.

I looked at this beautiful blonde beauty and heard from Komachi that Miura seemed to be a model now.

My relationship with Miura is actually quite subtle. I could only hear less than half of the process of becoming friends with her from Komachi, and I could only imagine the rest.

Basically, he is a bit like Isshiki, except that he helped a little in the process of her confession to Hayama. However, I heard that it seemed to have failed in the end, and Hayama also went to the United States, and no one knows how he is doing now.

How should I put it? It's quite strange. People who had nothing to do with me in the class before have become inexplicably close to me.

"I am also working hard at home."

"What about you two?"

I looked at Yuihama fumbling around and started to feel suspicious.

What is this guy whispering to Kawasaki?

[Are small businesses really sick?]

[I heard from Mr. Hiratsuka that he is currently recuperating at home, and it will probably take at least a month.]

[What kind of disease is this? It’s so serious. It’s really unbelievable that Xiaoqi and Xueno didn’t tell me. (*￣︿￣)]

[It seems to be something like... prostatitis? Not sure.]

[Eh? w(?Д?)w]

"Hey, what are you two whispering about there?"

These two people are acting sneaky and they glance at me from time to time. Are they hiding something?

"Ah, ah...nothing...nothing."

Oh, Ms. Yuigahama, your expression has betrayed you.

"Hikigaya, cough~"

Hmm? Miss Kawasaki, why are you blinking? If there's dust in your eyes, go rinse them off.

Forget it, these guys have been acting abnormal for a while now. Anyway, I am the most abnormal one here.
