Sendai-san is selfish — 83

「Put it up for me. I’m a sick person, you know?」

Sendai-san says, as if it were a natural right.

Normally, I would throw back the box containing the cooling sheets and shoo her away, telling her to do it herself.

I would like to do the same today, but what I see in front of me is a sick person, just as she said.

When I think of that, I can’t do as I usually do.

It’s out of tune.

At least, I wish she looked a little more energetic.

Sendai-san’s voice was gravelly and sounded like she had a cold. And it’s hard to keep her cold because I went out of my way to ask if she had a fever.

I pick up the box and approach the bed.

「Here, you can sit down.」

Sendai-san, sitting on the edge of the bed, taps next to her.

I don’t mean to say that I catch a cold, but what happened in this room during the summer vacation comes to mind. That day, Sendai-san licked my feet as I sat on the bed, even though she had not given the order.

I don’t think she would do the same thing today, but it gives me reason to hesitate to sit on the bed.

「Miyagi, have a seat.」

As I was unsure of what to do, Sendai-san’s words changed from soft to forceful.

I could put a cooling sheet on it while standing, but I think it would be too noisy if I didn’t do what she said. Today, she is trying to make the most of her position as a sick person.

I have no choice but to sit next to Sendai-san at a little distance and open the box.

「I’ll put it up, turn around.」

When I showed her the cooling sheet I had taken out, she turned to me plainly. However, she did not show her forehead. As I reached up to lift her bangs, which were only in the way, she grabbed my hand.

It’s hot.

The heat that is transmitted to the back of my hand is a telltale sign that she have a cold, and it frightens me for a moment. The hand is pulled hard and the cooling sheet falls onto the bed.

The distance between me and Sendai-san closes, and our lips touch as if we were bumping into each other.

Like her hands, hee lips are hotter than usual.

The tip of her tongue enters my mouth without hesitation.

It was still hot and scalding, and I had no choice but to accept it. Just a hot tongue moves to explore my mouth and try to tease my tongue.

I bite, push it away, and Sendai-san’s body temperature is too high for me to complain. The hand that holds me, the lips that touch me, and the soft tongue are so hot that I can’t escape.

I wish I could get away.

But I don’t hate it so much.

The heat that is being transmitted is preventing me from making proper decisions.

I don’t intend to respond to her moving tongue, but I don’t think I want to drive her away. I don’t even know how long I’ve been kissing her because her lips keep overlapping and it feels so good.

My sense of time has disappeared, and my mind is occupied only with Sendai-san.

I can’t breathe well, and it’s painful.

I escape from the overlapping hands and grab her pajamas, and Sendai-san slowly moves away. She almost yanked her pajamas out of my grasp and complained deceptively.

「…Now was definitely not the time to kiss.」

「Miyagi came up to me.」

「I let myself get close to you. And don’t do anything else, Sendai-san. Besides, the kiss like you just did is disgusting.」

I was a fool to listen to her because she was sick.

If I was nice to her for a moment, she would immediately do something like this to me.

I didn’t hate it enough to complain, but I didn’t want her to kiss me anymore.

「You need to be a little softer with your words. You’re hurting me.」

「I don’t. If it’s going to hurt, then you shouldn’t have done what you did.」

「……Are you really mad at me?」

I don’t think my tone was harsh. However, I could hear the anxiety in Sendai-san’s voice, who usually does not care whether I am angry or in a bad mood.

Maybe the fever is making her feeble.

It really throws me off kilter.

I feel like I’ve done something wrong when people say this to me.

I told Sendai-san that I felt bad, but that was a lie, and I have gotten used to kissing like that. I think I may have said too much to a sick person. So, I will deny Sendai-san’s words, if not retract my previous statement.

「I’m not angry, but I’m in a bad mood.」

「Then, an exchange. You can order me around.」

「What, then? I won’t give orders.」

「Why?」

「Do I look like the worst bunch to give orders to a sick person?」

I want to give orders, but I am not so impersonal as to give orders to someone with a fever. Compared to Sendai-san, who takes advantage of her position as a sick person, I am a decent human being, and today I am willing to do what Sendai-san says at least a little bit.

「I’m okay with Miyagi being the worst.」

「Don’t keep saying weird things, you should get some sleep.」

I pushed on Sendai-san’s shoulder. But she didn’t lie down and coughed.

「See, your cold is getting worse. Go back to bed.」

「I can’t sleep.」

Sendai-san says, coughing.

「Normally, I don’t think I would kiss you if you had a cold that made you cough. If I catch a cold, it’s Sendai-san’s fault.」

「I kissed you because I wanted to be depressed. Miyagi, get a cold.」

Sendai-san says something I can’t believe my ears and tugs at the sleeve of my uniform.

「Isn’t that awful? I don’t like sleeping alone with a cold.」

I usually don’t know what she’s thinking, but today, perhaps because of her fever, I’m even more confused. No sane person would ever say they wanted to give someone a cold, nor had anyone ever said such a thing to me before.

「I’ll go take care of you.」

「It’s fine if you don’t.」

「If you want, I can stay over and take care of you.」

「I will never let you stay. I don’t know what you will do, Sendai-san. Go sleep already.」

Today Sendai-san is not interested in listening to me.

I don’t want her to push me to take care of her, and I don’t want her to stay at my house. I don’t think she will actually come to stay, but I think we should avoid any potential mistakes, even if she was joking.

「Miyagi, you’ll go home after I sleep, right?」

Sendai-san makes an unusually sultry sound.

I swallow the sigh that is about to come out.

I can’t be too cold, and dealing with sick people is a bit troublesome.

「If I stayed until you fall asleep, you’d be having a sweet time.」

「You should be nicer to the sick.」

「More than this?」

「Yes.」

「If you want me to be so nice to you, don’t go the extra mile.」

「You don’t have to go the extra mile to be nice.」

That’s disturbing.

Today I think I am being kind to Sendai-san for going the extra mile. But even if I told her that, she would not understand me now. I pick up the cooling sheet I dropped, take a yogurt out of the convenience store bag, and hand it to Sendai-san.

「Just eat this and stay quiet.」

「…Thank you.」

The yogurt is accepted with open arms and the lid is peeled off with a periphonal motion. Then, a bite or two is taken into her mouth.

「Miyagi, stay here a little longer. I’m sure I’ll get over my cold quickly.」

「I’m not a cold remedy.」

「I know.」

「Don’t act like an idiot, go to sleep after you eat.」

「Like I said, I’ve slept too much to sleep.」

「Still, go to sleep.」

「Then I’ll sleep when Miyagi kisses me.」

Her hand stops eating yogurt.

A spoon is placed on the container and her fingertips brush my lips.

Mr. Sendai’s body temperature remains the same.

It was as hot as ever.

But the heat from her fingertips was comforting. I wanted her to touch me more, so I caught her fingertips caressing my lips. I almost put my face close to it and let out a small breath.

「Sendai-san, you’re in too good a shape. You don’t have to sleep, just lie down.」

I took up the yogurt she was about to eat and place it on the table.

She almost misunderstand when she asks for a kiss, as if it were a matter of course, but I didn’t come here to do that.

I take a cooling sheet from the box and affix it to Sendai-san’s forehead, who looks as if she wants to complain.

「It’s cold.」

「If it’s warm, it’s defective.」

「Well, that’s true, but…」

「And if you don’t sleep, I’m leaving.」

When I declared in a voice not as cold as that of a cooling sheet, Sendai-san thought for a moment and then said, 「Then…」

I don’t have a very good feeling about it.

Still,「What?」I ask back, and a quiet voice comes back.

「Give me your hand, and I’ll sleep.」

「My hand?」

「Yes.」

「I hope that’s enough.」

I accept the proposal, which is milder than a kiss, and Sendai-san, apparently satisfied with my response, lies down on the bed. She held out her hand as if urging me to do so, and I laid my own hand on top of hers.

「Do you enjoy holding hands with me?」

When I ask her to shake her hand, which is still hot, she squeezes it back.

「Fair enough.」

After saying this, Sendai-san slowly closed her eyes.
