We sit on a bench a little further from the street where the food stalls are and eat our takoyaki together.
Tachibana was breaking the takoyaki with a toothpick and blowing them to cool them down.
It was kind of cute.
"Is it hot?"
"Yeah"
When he puts it in her mouth and eats it she was huffing and puffing.
"It's really delicious!"
She said that with a squinted eyes.
"You have sauce on your mouth."
"Wipe it?"
I wiped Tachibana's mouth with a tissue.
Tachibana also has a childish side, doesn't she?
The two of us are eating takoyaki together while looking at the crowd in the distance.
We can hear the sounds of insects, which until now we could not hear because of the noise from the crowd.
I am glad that Tachibana seemed to be having fun.
I'm really glad I invited her.
"Oh! It's Kato!"
When I look where the voice was coming from I saw a group of five men.
One of them then spoke to me.
"Do you remember me? It's me, your classmate from junior high!"
When I saw his face I remember him, he was a close friend of mine back in junior high school.
"Please, can you wait here for a minute?"
"Yeah"
I left Tachibana sitting on the bench and I headed towards my friend.
