Lonely Rock for the Blind.

"it is good!"

Kita Yukiyo nodded, then quickened her pace with Nekoyashiki Haru.

...

……

.........

restaurant.

Kita Ikuyo took her seat with her cat, Yashiki Haru.

To be fair, there are quite a few restaurants in this area that cater to couples.

Therefore, Kita Ikuyo did not lie about this.

As for the fact that people with disabilities receive gifts... that was indeed just some random rambling in a moment of inspiration.

Kita Ikuyo had never seen a restaurant like that before, and Nekoyashiki Haru obviously hadn't either.

What should I say if they ask me about it later...?

Kita Ikuyo rummaged through the contents of her bag.

What are some good gifts?

cosmetic!

Kita Ikuyo rummaged through her bag, but soon realized something was wrong.

It seems... I forgot to bring it? Did I leave it at home? That shouldn't be the case!

"... "

After searching for a while, Kita Yuyo only pulled out athlete's foot cream, a bar of soap that was obviously brand new and still in its packaging, and several packs of tissues and wet wipes.

"... "

It seems... I took the wrong one?

Athlete's foot cream... soap, wet wipes, and paper towels?

Why are these things in my bag?

Kita Ikuyo fell into deep thought, then examined the bag carefully.

Cold sweat trickled down his forehead.

The bag... was taken by mistake...

Is this Mom's bag?!?!

"Yudai, isn't there a gift? What is it?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru asked."

"!!!"

Kita Ikuyo's body suddenly stiffened.

Then slowly put all these odds and ends into the bag.

"It's...it's a pendant!"

"Oh, I see. When will you give it to me? I'd like to touch it too."

Nekoyashiki Haru nodded, then asked.

"!!!"

Oh no! The reason given is that there will be gifts for people with disabilities. Although my senior actually thinks it's something I want, it's only natural that he would be curious if such a gift exists!

Kita Ikuyo stood up.

"Wait a moment, senior! I'll go get it from the front desk!"

"Ah."

Kita Ikuyo smiled and walked toward the front desk, but her steps slowly veered toward the door.

Click.

Stepping outside, Kita Ikuyo put her bag down at the door and then took out her phone to open a map app.

"The nearest jewelry store... is it 527 meters...?"

Kita Ikuyo narrowed her yellow-green eyes slightly and leaned down slightly.

The next moment, he dashed off like an arrow released from a bow.

1 minutes 25 seconds.

Sizzle sizzle sizzle sizzle!!

It stopped abruptly in front of the jewelry store, kicking up dust.

Kita Ikuyo stepped forward.

Snapped!

The door of the jewelry store was suddenly smashed open, and Kita Ikuyo, panting heavily, stepped forward, grabbed a pendant at random, and slammed it on the counter.

"Haa...haa...this is it!"

"This is a very old style, we have some better recommendations here..."

"Stop talking nonsense! This is it!!!"

"Okay! Okay!"

The startled shop assistant wrapped up the ornament and handed it to Kita Ikuyo. Kita Ikuyo nodded, then slammed the money on the counter and disappeared from the jewelry store the next moment.

...

……

.........

3 minutes and 8 seconds.

despair…

Nekoyashiki Haru was still drinking water when the sound of footsteps beside him made him pause slightly.

"Got it...got it...phew...phew..."

"...Yuyo? Why are you panting?"

"...The gifts...were snatched up by so many people...several hundred people...it took a little effort..."

Are there really that many disabled people here?!

Kita Ikuyo sat down in front of Nekoyashiki Haru, her red hair damp with sweat on her forehead. Kita Ikuyo handed the charm to Nekoyashiki Haru.

"This...this one!"

"... "

Nekoyashiki Haru took the ornament and felt it with her hands.

"Birds?"

"Ok!"

"...Why would you send this?"

"That... because we hope you can spread your wings and fly high?"

"…Yeah…"

Nekoyashiki Haru tilted her head and then handed the ornament back to Kita Ikuyo.

"Then this is yours."

"Th...thank you!"

Kita Ikuyo breathed a sigh of relief.

They managed to fool them...

Chapter Ninety-Seven: Rain (Return)

"... "

Gently biting into her pasta, Kita Ikuyo glanced at Nekoyashiki Haru, who was drinking water in front of her, and narrowed her yellow-green eyes.

"Um, senior..."

"what happened?"

Nekoyashiki Haru looked up, puzzled.

"Aren't you going to eat something?"

"I already told you I've eaten, haven't I?"

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head.

"I can't eat anymore."

"The kind of bento you're eating... a boy wouldn't get enough to eat."

Kita Ikuyo picked up the menu.

"Let's order something, just so you can keep me company while I eat..."

"Sigh...so what?"

"Nekoyashiki Haru asked."

"Omelette rice?"

"There's too much; we can't finish it all."

Nekoyashiki Haru shook her head.
