CH 85

We are continuing this?

Men’s yukatas are relatively easier to wear than women’s. That’s why I and Masato are currently waiting for the others in front of the store.

“So, who are you supposed to be?”

“Ha? It’s just me right.”

“The heck you are! Your impressions totally changed man!”

That’s right. I set my hair up a little when I changed into the yukata. My look right now is the same as when I went to the mall with Misaki the other day.

This is the first time I had my hair up in front of Masato too. Well, leaving that aside…….

“As I thought, people always want to see others in yukata but since it’s hard to move in, it’s not something that you really want to wear yourself right.”

“Seiya, you should make an exception when it’s a festival you know. Yukatas and Festivals come as a set don’t you think? If I have to give another example then I guess it would be like seeing a girl wearing school swimsuits outside a school…….”

“Uwah, Ew, Disgusting!”

I seriously pulled back a little when Masato said that with a grin.

“Hey! Don’t take it seriously, come on!”

“I mean, sure….but when you brought up school-swimsuit so casually like that, it gave me a creep…….”

“BUT! You understand my point about yukata now right? You even said earlier that you want to see others wearing it too.”

“I get the yukata but the school swimsuit is an entirely different story alright.”

“Fine, forget about it then. Either that or you need to have your eyes opened.”

When I was having such a ridiculous conversation with Masato, Misaki seemed to have finished changing and was walking toward us.

“Thanks for the wait, Onii-chan!”

“Yeah, that was fast. Also, it looks good on you.”

“Muh! Yours looks good too Onii-chan! Also, praise me more!”

“Alright! Your body shape suits the yukata very well!”

“Right Right! ……wait, that’s not a compliment right!?”

“Tsk, you noticed huh.”

A body shape that suits a yukata basically means a modest one. That’s why Misaki got worked up since she noticed that I literally praised her lacking in the chest department.

Yukata is a piece of straight cloth with no curve. That’s why your body line doesn’t really show when you wear one.

No matter the size, you can hardly tell the size of the wearer’s chest but it is said that the smaller they are, the easier you can finish changing into one.

That’s probably why Misaki finished first among the girls……well, it’s possible that Ichinose-san is waiting for Eihashi-san to finish though………

After all, just like Misaki, Ichinose-san’s is——

“—-Thanks for the wait, you two! Man, a yukata really is meant to be worn to a festival don’t you think!”

“Ichinose-san, there you are!”

“Ichinose-san’s also finished huh. Also, I don’t see why anyone would wear a yukata outside of the festival, you know.”

“I mean the cloth they give you at those traditional inns should count as yukatas too but it doesn’t really count right?”

“Yeah! I think those yukatas are reserved for hot spring outings only.”

While we were talking about that, I heard another voice from behind Ichinose-san.”

“Thank you for the wait……am I last?”

“It’s alright Reika! It’s not like you’re late after all!”

“Yeah. It’s just a brief change of clo–th–after–all.”

When I thought that Masato was strangely silent, I turned to look at Eihashi-san and was stunned out of my breath. Her beautiful black long hair looks terrifyingly well with the yukata.

She was so beautiful that I thought to myself that this is what a traditional Japanese beauty looks like.

“OOOOOH! Reika-san is super beautiful! What’s this! Does the kimono exist just for you, Reika-san!? It suits you too well! Onii-chan thinks so too right!?”

“Y, Yeah. I guess so.”

Although I was prompted by the excited Misaki, I could only give a vague reply. Rather, it’s really helping me that Misaki is noisy like this.

“Th, thank you very much. Uhh, the yukata looks good on Hiura-kun as well. Of course, everyone too.”

“Yup yup, wait! Ichinose-san! Hear me out on this!”

“Oh? What is it, Hiura-kun-imouto!”

“Onii-chan made fun of me! He said I have a body shape for yukata!”

What are you saying? Especially to Ichinose-san.

“O, Oi! That was just a joke alright!”

“Hmm? What do you mean?”

It appears that Ichinose-san doesn’t get it yet.

“Fufu, Akira-chan, yukata is a cloth that was made to conceal your body shape you know.”

“Eh, Eihashi-san? What on earth are you saying? Don’t mind her Ichinose-san!”

“Eh? Eh? I’m getting more curious about it since you are panicking so much though……”

“Right! To make it simple you see, it’s straight down!”

How’s that simple. However, hearing that, Ichinose-san looks down on her body.

“Straight down…..? Straight down. Ha, I can only see my toes though.”

“Oi! What are you trying to do, Misaki!”

“Eh?……a self-deprecation joke?”

“…..you there. That kind of joke shouldn’t involve others right?”

“Eh? Ah! It’s not like that Ichinose-san! I just want to get along with Ichinose-san with a joke so–!”

Misaki didn’t say that she wanted to get along because both of them have no chest. Well, it’s the yukata that conceal that so it’s probably a coincidence…..maybe.

“Yeah…..we small chest people need to have each other’s back after all.”

“Awawawawa. Wh, What to do! Onii-chan!?”

Seeing Misaki panicked, Ichinose-san let out a teasing smile.

“Fufu, it’s a joke. Nice to meet you Misaki-chan. You can call me Akira you know!”

“That gave me a scare……I will be in your care! Akira-san!”

I couldn’t hear Ichinose-san’s earlier tone as a joking one at all but since she wanted to treat it like a joke, I guess there’s no need to dig it up.

Thanks to this, I finally got used to Eihashi-san’s look and regained my composure so let’s secretly support Misaki for the time being.

“Anyway, there’s no use standing around here right. Let’s go to the festival.”

“Yeah!”

“Let’s go.”

“Masato-senpai, don’t forget about the cotton candy okay!”

“Yeah, leave that to me! Ah, you don’t get any alright, Seiya.”
