Chapter 26 Fish Roe Sushi Let's go to the volleyball club one more time!
Akina Amane moved her wrists and stretched.
She sighed; sitting in front of the easel for so long was really tiring.
On the easel in front of her was an enlarged version of the sketches she had made at noon.
Because she felt the scene was valuable, she copied the painting down.
This is a painting with an "X" shape, depicting two figures on the left and right, each performing a different action. Miyaji is taking small bites of pudding, while Miyayu is waiting for the pudding to fall into his mouth.
Akina Amane reluctantly untied her white apron, which had turned slightly black from being stained with lead dust. She washed her hands and prepared to go out.
Because I was so engrossed in the painting, I was quite hungry when I came to my senses.
Drawing is really a physically demanding activity.
Since there were no other snacks at home, Akina Amane decided to go out and buy some, and luckily there was a convenience store nearby.
After she finished getting ready, she opened the door and went out, walking along the street to the nearest convenience store.
Hmm... they even have conveniently packaged sushi? I think I'll buy this.
Amane Akina hesitated for a moment, then picked up the box of sushi and a bag of toast before going to the cashier to pay.
A familiar person was standing next to the counter. Akina Amane paused for a moment, then recognized him as the captain of the volleyball team, Shinsuke Kita.
After a moment's hesitation, Akina Amaho decided to greet him: "Good evening, Kita-senpai."
Kita Shinsuke paused, turned around, and noticed Amaho Akina.
He nodded to Amaho Akina: "Good evening, Amaho-kun."
After paying, Kita Shinsuke left the convenience store, and Amaho Akina went up to pay.
When she came out carrying a bag of things, she was surprised to find that Kita Shinsuke was still standing next to the entrance of the convenience store, walking towards her when he saw her come out.
"Has Tianhui stopped coming to watch the volleyball team lately?"
Kita Shinsuke vaguely sensed that Amako Akina had misunderstood last time, but he had no reason to go to Amako Akina. However, seeing that the twins seemed to be no different, he felt relieved.
He only approached Amaho Akina because he happened to run into her this time.
"Well, I've been organizing my paintings at home lately and practicing still life sketching techniques, so I'm not planning to go to the volleyball club for the time being."
Akina Amane paused for a moment, then explained what she had been doing lately.
If you want to learn art, you need to capture not only dynamic postures, but also static objects.
She asked the twins to be models, mostly to observe their movements.
But if she wants to further improve her skills, she needs to continue to portray static subjects.
Well, when I'm hungry, I can even eat the still life objects that are sitting there. Anyway, there's no unspoken rule that eating still life objects will prevent you from getting into school.
“Is that so? If you want to come and watch the volleyball team, you can come anytime.” Kita Shinsuke nodded.
Akina Amane's eyes widened slightly.
Didn't Kita Shinsuke initially feel that he was the one who delayed their training...?
After all, coming to chat with me was not only a waste of time, but also caused us to argue, which wasted our energy.
She nodded blankly, hesitated for a moment, and then couldn't help but ask, "But if I go, won't it interfere with their training?"
Well, although Miyako had previously suggested that she check on their training progress and persuaded Amaho Akina, she had been hesitant.
"Judging from the current situation, your going won't interfere with their training." Kita Shinsuke shook his head.
He observes Gemini's condition every day.
As things stand, their situation has stabilized.
Moreover, when Amaho Akina wasn't around a while ago, both of them were quite depressed for a few days, and their condition was obviously worse.
"On the contrary, they might be in better shape if you were there." Kita Nobusuke's words seemed serious.
Akina Amaho nodded blankly again.
Kita Shinsuke then smiled and said, "I think I misunderstood something before."
"Just make things clear with them. I think you're friends with both of them now, right? You're welcome to come and watch the volleyball team anytime."
Akina Amako lowered her head slightly, realizing that she had made a mistake from the very beginning, and blushed.
This makes things really awkward.
She could only meekly reply, "In that case, I will explain it to them."
Kita Shinsuke sighed. He always felt that her explanation wasn't what he meant, and this time, she had misunderstood again. But it didn't matter; perhaps those two were actually enjoying this level of misunderstanding.
Now it seems that Akina Amamiya is the one who has absolutely no feelings for anyone.
"Well then, I look forward to seeing you tomorrow. Goodbye." Kita Shinsuke smiled, waved, and left in the opposite direction.
Akina Amane waved blankly and walked towards her home.
She patted her face with her other hand, feeling that it all still felt a little unreal.
However, to make things clear, it's best to notify them via social media first.
When Akina Ama returned home, she felt the warmth of the house again.
She took a breath, then opened her phone and started sending messages.
[Ten-Sui: I've rested well. I'll come visit the volleyball club again tomorrow.]
For convenience, she didn't want to send messages to the two people individually anymore, so she simply created a group chat for all three of them.
[Gong You: ! Really?]
Miya Yu sat up straight excitedly. Before Tensui Akina came, he talked to Miyaji almost every day about when she would come, which annoyed Miyaji a bit.
However, Miyaji also hopes that Akina Amaho will come back to the volleyball club.
[Miyaji: It's wonderful to hear this news. You're welcome to come and observe our training.]
[Miya Yu: Hmph, Mina, just you wait and see. Tomorrow I'll show you my most handsome side.]
[Miyaji: Are you talking about your home run?]
[Ten-Sui: Whatever it is, I will look at it with appreciation.]
After all, no matter what the scene is like, she will always find something that shines and record and depict those shining moments.
[Miya Yu: Don't look at Ino's serve error with admiration...]
[Ten-Sui: Hmm, I guess that's a technique too.]
[Miyaji: Okay, there's no skill involved in a serve error.]
[Ten-Sui: Anyway, I'll come to the volleyball club tomorrow. I can go by myself.]
She was afraid that someone else would come and insist on walking with her.
[Gong You: That won't do, I'll definitely come to pick you up tomorrow]
[Miyaji: I'll come too.]
Well, it seems I can't convince them. I'll try again tomorrow.
Akina Amane turned off her phone, selectively avoiding the issue and deciding to deal with it tomorrow.
-
The next day at noon.
This time, Akina Ama stood outside the classroom for a while, waiting for Yuu Miyabi and Osamu Miyabi to come out of the classroom before heading to the rooftop.
The twins also noticed Akina Amaho's figure and quickly followed her, walking up the stairs side by side with her.
"I really didn't expect that Mina wouldn't run upstairs directly this time, but waited for us instead." Gong You wiped his nose, feeling a little guilty for no reason.
He still remembered the accusations he made against Minnai yesterday, saying that they hadn't come to wait for him.
Akina Amaho's smiling voice rang out: "Yeah, after all, I don't want Yuu-kun to say again that I didn't wait for you."
Her voice was slightly mischievous, clearly indicating that she was holding a grudge because of what Gong You had said yesterday.
Gong You slightly pursed his lips.
"Ah... I won't say that next time. I'm glad that Mina waited for me."
His expression looked a bit silly, but he did seem genuinely happy.
Miyaji couldn't stand it anymore: "You idiot, you talk so much every day, making things difficult for Akina."
"How could I have made things difficult for Minnai?"
I feel that Mina should be happy about this.
As he spoke, he cautiously glanced at Akina Amaho's expression.
Akina Amaho did laugh, but the reason she laughed wasn't just because of Miyayu's words.
She simply found the bickering between the two of them very interesting, which made her life more vibrant as a result.
She doesn't mind at all that Gong You sometimes makes a fuss.
In other words, she had always been indulging Gong You, after all, they were friends.
"It's not really difficult at all, or rather, I actually quite like it." She tilted her head slightly.
They had no idea what weighty line she had just uttered, which made both Miyaji and Miyayu widen their eyes slightly.
She just said—like? Like what?
Thinking this, Miyaji couldn't help but ask, suppressing his anxious emotions.
What do you like?
Miyako was also observing Akina Amaho's performance.
"Ah, of course I like this atmosphere among friends; it makes me feel very relaxed." She hadn't expected the twins to think so much, and she spoke lightly according to her own understanding.
For some reason, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Hmm. While it's a bit of a shame I didn't hear some of the answers, I'm definitely somewhat relieved.
If she really said who she liked more, Miyaji thought, if that were the case, perhaps he would indeed go back to being just a friend.
Instead of, as they are doing now, taking advantage of the fact that Amaho Akina doesn't fully understand the boundaries of friendship, they are subtly expanding the boundaries of their relationship.
"Oh, right, because I decided to go to the volleyball court to watch and then paint today, I didn't give you any snacks for lunch, since I'm eating them myself." She wagged her finger.
"Minnai, you still need to eat more. You fainted at the volleyball court last time, it scared us to death," Miya Yu said.
However, if Amaho Akina faints again, he will definitely be the first to rush up and hug her.
"Don't worry, it definitely won't happen this time." Akina Amaho smiled.
They went up to the rooftop together. Akina Amaho opened her lunchbox, which contained curry rice this time, but the dessert next to it was a row of sushi.
Gong You's gaze froze slightly; he really did want to try the sushi.
But no... Mina already said that she wouldn't be sharing any with them at noon today, and she also said she wouldn't give him any sushi.
Wait, could it be that Mina doesn't want to share with them because it's sushi today?
Gong You had a sudden realization.
Gong Zhi accepted it well and started eating his pork cutlet rice.
Okay, next time I mention payment, I'll just tell Akina Amaho that I hope she'll make me some sushi, so I can have some then.
Akina Amane had no idea what she was thinking; she simply picked up a piece of sushi and put it in her mouth.
Lunch break ended just like that, without us even realizing it.
