Lonely Rock for the Blind.

.........

At night, the bright moon illuminated the third floor of the apartment building.

Under the moonlight, a red-haired girl who inexplicably became a C-cup pressed the doorbell.

ding dong~

The doorbell rang, and Nekoyashiki Haru looked towards the door in confusion.

As I walked to the door and opened it, Kita Ikuyo's voice rang out.

"Senior... Good evening."

Nekoyashiki Haru was slightly taken aback, feeling that Kita Ikuyo's voice didn't sound like usual.

It's not that it lacks vitality, but rather that it's become more restrained.

What's going on?

"Good evening, what brings you here at this hour?"

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head and asked.

"Um, actually, there's a store having a promotion; couples get half price..."

Kita Ikuyo was nervous.

Is this argument really useful?

"Dining room?"

"Ah."

"But I've already eaten..."

Nekoyashiki Haruto looked puzzled, while Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide.

What to do?! Am I too late?!

No, there's another way to say it.

"Um! For blind people, that store seems to give away free gifts! I really want one! Please, senior!"

"…Hey…"

Nekoyashiki Haru smiled.

"They're trying to take advantage of my blindness. I can't believe Yu Dai would do something like this."

"Eh? Sorry?"

"No need to apologize, and I don't need it."

Nekoyashiki Haru stepped outside.

"Let's go, it won't be good if we're late, will it?"

"Okay!"

It worked!

Chapter Ninety-Six: Getting By

The evening breeze was still quite chilly, and although it was summer, Nekoyashiki Haru was still wearing a coat when she came out.

Kita Ikuyo, who was standing next to her, secretly glanced at Nekoyashiki Haru, and then suddenly realized that there was no need for this at all.

So they watched it openly and honestly.

Nekoyashiki Haru's figure is still rather thin, but compared to before, her hands don't seem as white as they used to be, and they've started to have a little bit of color in them.

It's quite an accomplishment!

Realizing that her and Ichika Nijika's efforts had been effective, Kita Ikuyo's steps became lighter.

She leaned towards Nekoyashiki Haru, her body almost touching Nekoyashiki Haru's.

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head in confusion, then asked knowingly.

What are you wearing today?

"Huh? A dress... light blue."

Although she didn't understand why she was suddenly asked what she was wearing, Kita Ikuyo still told the truth.

"Is it a little cold?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru asked."

"A little... a bit."

Kita Yukiyo nodded, Nekoyashiki Haru nodded, and then pulled down the zipper of her coat.

Pila.

"Would you like to wear my coat?"

"!"

Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide and swallowed hard as she looked at the boy's black jacket.

I want to wear…

But in the end, he shook his head.

I'm fine, but my senior is really cold!

"It's alright, my body is in better shape than yours! What if yours gets frozen stiff after taking it off?"

"...I'm not that fragile."

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head, Kita Ikuyo smiled, and then leaned directly against Nekoyashiki Haru.

"This way it won't be cold!"

"…is that so?"

"It still feels a little cold," Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head uncertainly.

Kita Ikuyo narrowed her yellow-green eyes slightly.

Okay... now is the opportunity...

Gently adjusting her position, Kita Ikuyo hugged Nekoyashiki Haru's arm, which wasn't holding the cane.

Then, he pressed down on her chest.

The fake plumpness pressed against Nekoyashiki Haru's arm, and Kita Ikuyo wore an expectant expression.

how is it?

"Don't pull me."

Nekoyashiki Haru gently withdrew her hand as she spoke.

Honestly, it was scary when he suddenly grabbed my arm.

Nekoyashiki Haru sighed and continued walking forward.

Kita Ikuyo was taken aback for a moment.

Is this... shyness?

Kita Ikuyo opened her eyes wide, then took a few steps forward to follow Nekoyashiki Haru.

She deliberately tossed her hair next to the boy, and the scent of the perfume she had sprayed wafted to Nekoyashiki Haru.

"Are you wearing perfume?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru asked."

Yes! How about it?

Kita Ikuyo asked excitedly.

"Good."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded.

…The smell is a bit strong.

Kita Ikuyo blinked.

Does this mean...I like it?

I don't understand? But there shouldn't be any problem?

At night, when she can't see the other person's face clearly, Kita Ikuyo can only judge the other person's emotions by their tone of voice.

Meanwhile, Nekoyashiki Haru's emotions remained relatively stable.

Kita Ikuyo sniffed her own scent.

I guess... it's a success, right?

"?"

Nekoyashiki Haru suddenly stopped in her tracks.

Kita Ikuyo looked at Nekoyashiki Haru.

"what happened?"

"...The air is a bit humid, it feels like it's going to rain."

"Eh?"

Kita Ikuyo was stunned.

"But the weather forecast says it shouldn't be like this today..."

"Weather forecasts are not as reliable as I am."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded, her nose twitching.

"Let's go, Yudai, hurry back."
