Rolling around~ 8
The sushi arrived.
It would have been a perfect lunch if I wasn't eating it with Sensei.
Â
Â
Â
I put each piece of sushi, topped with various kinds of sashimi, into my mouth.
Â
Â
Â
It was a bit difficult to eat them in one bite because Nito's mouth was so small.
Â
Â
Â
How can her mouth be this small?
Did she undergo reduction surgery?
Â
Â
Â
"Sensei, you eat too."
Â
Â
Â
I urged Sensei to eat with a slightly more familiar polite tone than before.
Â
Â
Â
"Oh, right. I should eat."
Â
Â
Â
I don't know why he always stares at me before eating.
It's creepy.
Â
Â
Â
After eating only a little, I got up from the dining table chair with a full stomach (secretly lamenting it with tears inside).
Â
Â
Â
"...I've eaten well."
Â
Â
Â
Still, I gave a polite farewell.
Â
Â
Â
Now I just have to wait another four hours and I can go home.
Â
Â
Â
My heart still aches when I think about my destroyed house.
Â
Â
Â
That damn president.
After Sensei, she's my number one target to watch out for.
Â
Â
Â
Anyway, I have no idea what to do now.
I've slept so much that I'm not sleepy anymore.
Â
Â
Â
Should I watch Sensei work?
Not bad.
If I just loaf around while he's working hard, Sensei will get annoyed.
Â
Â
Â
"Hehehe..."
Â
Â
Â
I laughed unintentionally at the thought of bothering Sensei.
Â
Â
Â
ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡
Â
Â
Â
What is she doing?
Â
Â
Â
After finishing the sushi and continuing with my work, Nito came out again.
Â
Â
Â
I wondered what was going on, and she went to the sofa and started lazing around.
Â
Â
Â
Well, it's nice for me to be healed by watching something cute.
But judging by Nito's attitude towards me, she probably has some other motive...
Â
Â
Â
I still don't know.
Â
Â
Â
The cute creature in front of me rolled around, searching for the most comfortable position to lie in.
Â
Â
Â
Or maybe she just wants to roll around.
Â
Â
Â
She occasionally glances at me and even smiles.
Â
Â
Â
...Was there poison in the sushi?
Â
Â
Â
Anyway, I continued my work, feeling recharged.
Â
Â
Â
As I worked and occasionally admired Nito, before I knew it...
Nito's halo turned off.
Â
Â
Â
She must have rolled around a lot if she fell asleep again after sleeping so much.
Â
Â
Â
Nito's characteristic breathing sound when she sleeps resonates out regularly.
Â
Â
Â
Nito's body rises and falls in perfect sync with the rhythm of her breathing.
Â
Â
Â
Since I'm processing work faster than usual, I can see her more closely.
Â
Â
Â
She's a cute kid when I see her like this, but I don't understand why she's so harsh with me.
Â
Â
Â
I approached Nito with only one task left to do.
Â
Â
Is she having a good dream?
The corners of her happy mouth show no sign of coming down.
Â
Â
Â
Stretch-
Â
Â
Â
"Oh..."
Â
Â
Â
"Hehe..."
Â
Â
Â
I subconsciously pulled her cheek.
Â
Â
Â
...It stretches really well.
Â
Ahem! I shouldn't be doing this, I need to finish the last task.
Â
"Arona, what's the last task?"
Â
Â
Â
-It's a request!
Â
Â
Â
"What kind of request?"
Â
Â
Â
-Well... They want you to take on a student at Schale...
Â
Â
Â
A student?
Take on? What does that mean?
Â
Â
Â
-Um... They said they'll send the student to Schale by 2:30 PM next Monday. They'll tell you what to do then.
Â
Â
Â
Hmm...
Â
Â
Â
"Do I have any free time next Monday?"
Â
Â
Â
-You don't have any free time! But if it's just taking them on, wouldn't you be able to do it?
Â
Â
Â
I suppose so.
Â
Â
Â
"Fuuunyaaam..."
Â
Â
Â
Nito made a strange sound.
Â
Â
Â
Well, it doesn't matter.
I'll manage somehow.
Â
Â
Â
After easily finishing the last task, I had some free time.
Should I play a Gacha game that I haven't been able to log into lately because I've been so busy?

Â
Â
Â
But before that, I should wake up the girl who's sleeping like she's in another world.
Â
Â
Â
"Nito~ wake up~."
Â
Â
Â
"Ugh... I'm awake..."
Â
Â
Â
It's not even a conditioned reflex, how can she say she's awake while still sleeping?
Â
Â
Â
"Get up quickly~ it's 7 o'clock~."
Â
Â
Â
I shook Nito's body.
Her head wobbled along with the shaking.
Â
Â
Â
"...Huh?"
Â
Â
Â
Nito woke up, making a dazed sound.
Â
Â
Â
Her sleepy eyes, not fully awake, met mine.
Â
Â
Â
"Get..."
Â
Â
Â
"Hmm?"
Â
Â
Â
"Get off!!!"
Â
Â
Â
"Gah?!"
Â
Â
Â
My body was momentarily airborne.
Â
Â
Â
"Ugh..."
Â
Â
Â
Ah, my ribs.
Nito's punch landed squarely. It hurts like crazy.
Â
Â
Â
"Huh, huh? Ar-are you okay?"
Â
Â
Â
Honestly, I'm not okay.
Anyway, seeing Nito's speech revert to casual language, she must be really flustered.
Â
Â
Â
"I'm fine..."
Â
Â
Â
Still, I answered that I was fine.
Â
Â
Â
"Too bad..."
Â
Â
Â
Nito mumbled something.
She spoke too softly for me to hear.
Â
Â
Â
"Hmm?"
Â
Â
Â
"Ah, it's nothing..."
Â
The forced polite speech started again.
Â
"What time is it now...?"
Â
"It's probably around 6:40."
Â
"Huh?"
Â
A look of undeniable bewilderment appeared on Nito's face.
Â
Nito jumped up from the sofa.
Â
"Goodbye."
Â
It was the first time she succeeded in using flawless polite speech.
Â
Tap tap tap-
Â
Nito walked away with quick steps.
Â
As expected, she got stuck at the door and asked me for help with a sad face.
Â
"Goodbye~."
Â
I waved my hand to the silent girl's back.
Â
ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡ã…¡
Â
Ugh... Why did I fall asleep there...!
The sofa was unexpectedly comfortable, and I dozed off, only to find that four hours had passed.
Â
To think I showed Sensei my defenseless sleeping face!
Â
"@%#&%@#"
Â
I ran home making strange noises out of shame.
