CH 89

We entered the movie theater and the screening time was nearing.

It was a Saturday, and the place was crowded to a certain extent. There was a line at the ticket counter. This time, I had a ticket, so I could go straight into the cinema.

“Surprisingly, there are many couples here.”

“Yes ……, Kamishiro-kun. Maybe that’s how we look too.”

“…… Hey!”

Me and Suzu as lovers….　Suddenly I got some kind of chill. What the hell is this feeling? It was as if an invisible hand was holding my heart. ….. I felt as if I was in a critical situation.

I look around, but nothing has changed.

“…? Kamishiro-kun?”

“No, I had a feeling someone was watching me.”

“Someone? That’s a little scary. So, I’ll come a little closer.”

–The president suddenly approached.

I was almost in contact with her. She was so close to me. I can feel the good smell and the feeling of her body …….

At that moment, there was a rattling noise in the vicinity. …… That hat with cat ears on it and sunglasses …… maybe a girl. There’s a hint of silver hair that’s frighteningly beautiful.

…… Silver hair??

No–no way.

It’s just my imagination…….

“Yes, let’s go …… Suzu.”

“Yes, …. Oojirou-kun.”

We went to the 10:45 screening of the science fiction film “Interstellar”. The cat-eared hat person was also following us.  ……. Are we being followed?

No, no, no, it can’t be. It just happens to be the same movie. It’s just a coincidence.

There are two seats in a row.

So I could sit there and watch the movie with Suzu. It’s too good to be true! Is that ……? The cat-eared hat is also staring at me from behind ……

I turned around a little, curious.

Then she (?) was hurriedly covering her face with a pamphlet. ……? Who the hell is that? Oh well, let’s just focus on the movie.

As usual, we were shown an unnecessarily long advertisement video – The Movie Thief. Then, finally, the main movie started.

It was a big movie, about three hours long.

It was produced by a famous director, so expectations were high. As I was getting excited, Suzu put her hand on top of mine and squeezed it.

“…… or Kaicho …….”

I couldn’t help but call it.

“Oojirou-kun, I’ve been looking forward to this movie too, so I’d like to keep our hands on each other until we finish watching it……. Can’t we?”

“No, it’s fine.”

As soon as I let my guard down, Suzu linked her fingers with mine. I didn’t expect her to be so bold as to intertwine her fingers with mine…….!

I have to endure three hours of this …… movie, I wonder if I can concentrate. Also, it seems like there is a faint killing intent being directed at me from behind…… I don’t know why I feel such negative emotions, I don’t!

No, I’m more focused on the movie. I’ve been looking forward to this movie for a long time too. It’s a story about a father’s struggle to find a habitable planet on a grueling mission.

The movie finally started.

◆

“………… It was great.”

“It was so dense that I didn’t feel the length of time. I was even moved at the end.”

We left the cinema and immersed ourselves in the aftermath of the movie. Suzuki and I were both very satisfied. Everything was perfect, no complaints.

“The black hole scene was so impressive!”

“Yes, and the magnificent music made it really immersive.”

“It was a masterpiece, that one.”

“I’m really glad we got to see it together.”

We talked about this as we walked outside.

Just then, I felt my stomach growl.

Yes, it was already past noon.

“I’m hungry …”

“We still have time to eat, so let’s go somewhere for a meal.”

“Do you have a preference?”

“Hmmm, ……. I don’t usually eat out, so I don’t know much about it.”

“Okay, let’s head for the station.”

“Station? Hamamatsu Station?”

“Yes, that’s right. There are a lot of restaurants there.”

“Wow! You know a lot about it, don’t you, Oojirou-kun? Then, let’s go.”

Suzu naturally held my hand. I’m not nervous anymore, I’ve gotten used to it……. Only, that girl with the cat-eared hat was glancing into my field of vision. How long is she going to follow us?

Hmm …

“Do you mind if I use the restroom?”

“Sure. I’ll wait for you here in the square.”

I gave a reason and moved away from the Suzu.

I approached the girl in the hat with the cat ears so that she wouldn’t notice me. I got her back. …… Oh, I knew it! There are not many silver haired people who are not Japanese like this.

Then I …… !

“Ураааааааа !!!” (Uraaahhhh!!)

This is apparently a Russian word used when making an attack. It is pronounced ” ura “. I charged, screaming.

” Uh, wha…!?”

” This hat and glasses are confiscated, Lida!”

” ………… Ah! Oh, Oojirou …….”

Lida looked at me and panicked.

She freaks out too much and tries to kiss me for some reason. Don’t do that in public! There are really a lot of people here, so it’s embarrassing…….

―― But what can I do about it?
