Chapter 54 Someone Who Makes You Feel Peace by Your Side

Someone Who Makes You Feel Peace by Your Side

Now that the money issue has been resolved, maybe there will be no more talk of Hana-san and Ichika living in this house——or so I thought.

“I’d like to explain where I’m moving to, but I haven’t even finished discussing it with Takeshi yet…so can I stay here until things settle down?”

After we finished praying in front of the altar.

I talked to Hana-san, who looked a bit refreshed; about the future.

“To be honest, it’s reassuring to have a trustworthy boy like Takumi-kun with me.”

How could I not be happy to hear that?

“Of course, you can stay as long as you want. As for me, I’m very happy because I get to eat Hana-san’s freshly made homemade food.”

“Ufufu~…I’m glad to hear you say that…that’s right! Breakfast, you haven’t had it yet, right? I’ll make it for you now, just wait a minute, okay?”

That’s how Hana-san made breakfast for me.

“——Thanks for the food. It was delicious today, too.”

“No, no. Takumi-kun eats so deliciously that it’s worth making…and then…”

After breakfast.

“Can I take a little nap?”

“Oh. Now that I think about it, you didn’t sleep last night…Sorry, I even made you make breakfast for me.”

“That’s okay. In fact, I don’t feel relaxed if I don’t make it.”

In fact, Hana-san’s face is a little more tired than usual.

She said she couldn’t sleep last night because of Takeshi, so that’s understandable.

“Please go ahead and sleep…ah, but I guess I don’t have any spare futons…”

Now I remembered.

I don’t have a spare futon…I’ll have to buy one later.

“Really? Then maybe I should borrow the sofa.”

“Will you be okay? That would be enough to make your body…sore, right?”

“Araraa…if it hurts young Takumi-kun, it looks a bit too much for me.”

Hana-san thought about something with a worried expression.

Hmm…a place to sleep comfortably?

I have a place in mind.

“If it’s my room, I have a bed…but it’s just right across from Takeshi’s room.”

I haven’t used it in a while.

Hana-san used to clean it for me, so there was no problem with cleanliness, but if you ask me, is it a good place for Hana-san, who is scared of Takeshi, to get a good sleep there…

“…I’m sure it’s okay because it’s a different building——but it might be a little scary.”

That’s right.

What about bringing the bed into the living room? No, the mattress is pretty big and my room is on the second floor…so moving it and finding a place to put it would be a problem.

It could be a difficult problem.

“I need to go buy a futon…Hana-san, why don’t you rest in the living room for now, and then I’ll go buy it for you?”

“Hmm. I might want to pick out the futon myself…I’d like to go shopping with you anyway——so Takumi-kun…?”

Obviously, Hana-san had a solution in mind.

But it was a little…or rather an embarrassing suggestion for me.

“Can you sleep with me? If Takumi-kun is here, I think I can sleep peacefully.”

No, no, no!

Is that really okay?

Hana-san, no!

(Will my heart survive?)

I was so nervous, I didn’t feel like I could sleep at all——
