I’m Having Trouble With a High School Girl I Meet on the Commuter Train Who for Some Reason Has Take

Chapter 37: - June 26 (Friday): Otomizu And Bath

It was just before nine o’clock in the evening.

 

After finishing our late dinner, Otomizu and I were talking at the end of the lobby.

 

“You know, unisex bathing means a family bath, right? Why do we, a senior and a junior, have to go in?”

 

“That may be true for now, but look at this!”

 

Otomizu pointed to a picture of the family bath on the corner of the hotel brochure.

 

It was a stylish bathtub where one could enjoy the night view, and it also came with a drink service.

 

There was an additional charge for this service, but it was enough to make you feel like a celebrity.

 

“… is certainly intriguing, but a family bath means you’ll be naked. Is that okay?”

 

“I’d like to see Sasamiya-san naked, though.”

 

Oh, you want to see? You want to see my body?

 

Maybe you’re expecting a ripped body?

 

Damn it! If this is the case, I should have done 30 sit-ups a day.

 

No, no, no. … That’s not the point.

 

“Let’s see, … I’m asking you if you don’t mind being goggled at.”

 

“Fufufu~. It’s totally fine. Because this hotel has swimsuits on loan.”

 

I thought she was being unusually aggressive. So that’s how it works.

 

It .., but it was a business trip.

 

It would indeed not be a good idea to allow her to get so hyped.

 

And no matter how many swimsuits I wore, it was still embarrassing to take a family bath with Otomizu.

 

I’ll act like a good senior here and refuse.

 

“Look, Otomizu. It’s okay to have fun, but it’s not okay to ruffle too many feathers. So I’m rejecting the family bath.”

 

“Are you embarrassed by that? Mufu~.”

 

Ah, this girl!

 

She smiled smugly and provoked me!

 

Damn it~!!　

 

…. Oops. Calm down, Kazuto Sasamiya.

 

You can’t get carried away here.

 

If she finds out that I am embarrassed, my image as an ideal senior will be destroyed.

 

“Anyway, no.”

 

“Hmmm. We’ve come all this way to stay in a hotel like this.”

 

Then Otomizu held up her index finger, as if she had thought of something.

 

“Well then. Let’s go to the bathhouse together and drink coffee milk together after the bath.”

 

“What’s that?”

 

“It’s a scene from an old anime about a public bath. It’s kind of romantic, don’t you think?”

 

Are you interested in such things?

 

You have a cute side, don’t you?

""

 

“I get it. I’ll go with you for that.”

 

“Waa~~. I’m really looking forward to it.”

 

And so we headed for the large bathroom on the top floor.

 

◆◆◆◆◆

 

After getting out of the bath, I changed into my yukata and waited for Otomizu at the entrance.

 

As I had hoped, the bathhouse was spacious and comfortable.

 

There was also a sauna, which I wanted to try; however, I couldn’t keep Otomizu waiting, so I had to be patient today.

 

I’ll save it for tomorrow.

 

“Thank you for waiting.”

 

Otomizu came out of the women’s bathing room wearing a yukata.

 

She was wearing her hair in a bun at the back of her head, as she had just finished taking a bath.

 

She looked cute, different from her usual professional style.

 

If I told you that she was a high school girl, many men would not question it.

 

“No. I was not waiting that long.”

 

“Fufufu~~. It’s nice like this, isn’t it? Meeting up after a bath.”

 

“What?”

 

“The atmosphere.”

 

“Is it?”

 

“Very much so.”

 

But secretly, I felt like a lover.

 

Of course, there was no way I could say that, even if my mouth collapsed.

 

Otomizu, who was walking next to me, was wearing light makeup.

 

She had probably taken the trouble to do it for me.

 

In addition, the fact that she was wearing a yukata after taking a bath made her look sexier than usual.

 

… and Otomizu suddenly looked at me.

 

“What is it?”

 

“No, nothing.”

 

I wondered if she had noticed that I was watching her.

 

When our eyes met, she smiled at me and I hurriedly looked ahead.

 

“Ehehe.”

 

Sounding happy, Otomize approached me and pinched the hem of my yukata.

 

I couldn’t figure out her intentions, but surprisingly, I didn’t feel bad.

 

It was as if a girl who didn’t want to get lost was relying on me.

 

I guess you could say it was a kind of superiority feeling.

 

Afterwards, we went to the resting room where there was a vending machine to buy drinks and quenched our thirst, and went back to our respective rooms.

 

◆◆◆◆◆

 

When I returned to my room, I spread out my documents on my desk.

 

“Hmm. Now, let’s do some light preparations for tomorrow.”

 

I tried to do only simple things at night whenever on a business trip, as I find it hard to concentrate.

 

Konno-san, my senior, said she could do it while drinking, but I couldn’t do it.

 

It was because if I drink even a little bit, I get into a completely goofy mode.

 

一I had finished what I had to do and was thinking about relaxing when I heard a knock on the door.

 

“Hmm? Could it be Otomizu?”

 

It was past ten o’clock at night, still too early to go to bed, but I wondered if there was something she wanted.

 

I got up and opened the door.

 

Then there was … Kaedezaka in a yukata.

 

She was holding a plastic bag with something in it.

 

“Good evening, Sasamiya-san. How do you do?”

 

“…Can I close the door?”

 

“Sorry to bother you.”

 

Without hearing my words, Kaedzaka walked arrogantly into the room.

 

Ha~, … I only have a sense of trouble …

 

■――Afterword――■

 

The romantic comedy will accelerate!

 

Next time, Kaedezaka does something like that to Sasamiya!
