Discomfort That You Don't Want to Notice
Author
Notes: The development is a little abrupt.
The
"Dream Book" I have in my hand has a feature or characteristic that
ultimately will not manifest the power of dreams unless I try to use it.
The
activation of the premonition dream, for example, may be due to the fact that I
unconsciously sensed a crisis and thought, "Let's use it".
That's
why .........................
*
......
I wake up to the morning sun shining through the window and realize that there
is someone in the bed I was sleeping on.
I
turned my head to the side as I was lying down and there was an opposite s*x
being who was wearing a rough t-shirt and breathing a cute sleepy air ...... she
is my childhood friend, Amane, there.
Even
with my sleepy head, I can feel the warmth and softness of her body, which no
pillow can compete with, and her sleeping face, which I can gaze at so closely ......
It makes everything not matter.
......But
maybe it was because she had been in my arms the whole time that my arm is
starting to feel a little numb.
It hurts
as if it were real .................. real?
Did
something like this......
happen before??
Upon
waking up, my childhood friend who is suddenly sleeping next to me ...... I
look directly at such a scene and pat her head ............ unable to suppress my face from smiling.
"Sneak
in again~...... it can't be helped."
I
took it as "everyday occurrence" and gently poke her cheeks, which
revealed her innocent sleeping face, and a very comfortable feeling came back
to me softly.
"......
Fuah?"
But
after repeating it for fun, Amane seemed to have woken up and opened her eyes
thinly ...... to see me playing a prank on her.
"Good
morning......."
"............"
However,
when our eyes met, which should have been firmly locked, she went straight
under the covers and hid her face.
"Ah,
kora, it's already morning."
"Ya~n......
still sleepy~"
I
have learned since we started "living together" that Amane is quite
weak in the morning.
When
she was at her parents' house, she used to have epic battles with her mom every
morning......
"Isn't
there an important lecture today? Something about "a theory that makes it
possible to combine mechanisms while reinforcing the body's armor"......"
"Mu............"
When
I said so, Amane reluctantly got up as well.
Her
sleepy eyes and messy hair...... She is one of the most talented mechanics in the
university, and I think that the students who look at her as a cool beauty
don't know what she really looks like...... It gives me a sense of superiority.
When
I thought she was staring at me, she kissed me lightly on the lips.
Then
she smiled.
"Good
morning...... Yume-chan."
"O-Oh......"
It's
"the usual thing"...... that we've been dodging on a daily basis
since we got here.
And
yet, on this day, at this moment ...... I don't know what it was, but my face
was absurdly hot.
It's
as if I'm "suddenly experiencing something for the first time or so, and
I'm confused," or should I say strangely elated or excited?
This
is weird? Even though we've done it many times, it's the usual...... Why is my
face so hot??
We
moved to the "Moon" from our hometown "Japan" to go to
college, and I was supposed to live alone for the first time, but I ended up
sharing a room with Amane.
Neither
Amane nor I were informed of this ...... until the day we moved in, and when we
saw each other in the room, ...... all we could do was laugh.
It's
a cost-cutting measure because it's a fee-folding version, is what they said.
...... Yes, to be clear, both the Amachi and Kanzaki families approve of this,
or rather, it's a transparent scheme to see what they expect from us.
Our
relationship was already discovered in high school by our neighbors, school,
and everyone else in the neighborhood, but...... That's too blatant, isn't it!?
I
will not give in to such expectations! My determination to do so was...... collapsed
and fell within a week...... by a magnificent combination of bathrobe and
loungewear......
These
days, we each have our own room, but Amane rarely sleeps in her own room.
Sometimes
we will separate when we get into a fight, ......but even that won't last a day
and we'll be back to our initial arrangement ......
......?
It's strange...... I'm
just looking back at the past, and it's like I'm getting more and more
embarrassed by it all......?
"What's
wrong? You're blushing with a difficult look on your face."
As
I was groaning with an emotion I didn't quite understand, Amane, who had
already gotten out of bed, ...... was coming to me with coffee in both hands,
her wonderful legs fully exposed as usual under her large T-shirt.
"......
No, as I thought my girlfriend's beautiful legs are the best~"
"Kora...
from the morning too~~"
I
feel an inexpressible sense of happiness at such gestures of Amane, who makes
such faces as angry, stunned, and embarrassed........
How
to say it, the sense of urgency that if I go on like this, I'm going to be in
trouble, ........ Then I guess that's okay~ the expectation comes rushing in.
I
was receiving coffee from Amane ...... she was completely unaware that I was
becoming stuck in "something".
And
after having breakfast together “as usual”, we left the room together “as
usual” and headed for the lunar city where the miscellaneous scenery spreads
out.
People
once upon a time described such a city as "the city of the future,"
but for those of us who have lived here for two years since going to college,
it has become nothing more than an everyday scene.
The
cars that pass through the sky, the domes that cover the living quarters and
control light, temperature, air pressure, and all the other important controls
that keep track of time from morning to night......
......But
for some reason, Amane looked around restlessly and curiously.
"What's
wrong? Is there something that bothers you?"
"......?
No......Hmm~......"
When
I asked her about it, Amane herself seemed to have no idea and crossed her arms
in thought.
But
I kind of know the feeling too.
I
could somehow guess that Amane was feeling the same discomfort that I had been
feeling ever since I woke up.
"......It's
not the first time, but it feels like the first time......or something like
that?"
"!
Yeah yeah, just like that! Eh? Maybe Yume-chan too?"
"Aa......Something
feels weird......What is it?"
"Unn...
Since this morning too, I think "I've done it"!? ...... For some
reason"
Hmm......
I don't know even if I thought about it.
I
feel like it kind of puts a stop to my thinking ...... Well, that's okay,
nothing bad has happened.......
Rather,
I feel like it would be a waste to notice something now...
As
the two of us were walking with difficult faces, Suzu-nee, the manager of [Blade
Volcano] our favorite coffee shop, was cleaning the front of the store in jeans
and a blouse, dressed in rough clothes.
"Yo,
both of you. You two were together again today......It's nice to be young."
"Why
do you talk like you're old......"
"Good
morning~ Suzu-nee~ Is your business prosperous?"
Even
Suzu-nee, who teases me like that, is still a young and beautiful woman, but
I've never heard of her having such a romantic relationship with anyone.
She
said she's never encountered anyone, but the main reason was...... At Amane's words, Suzu-nee shows a
wry smile with her hands on her hips.
"So-so,
I guess~ Unfortunately, I am much busier "over there" than at my main
job ......"
Job
over there...... She
has survived many battles because of her upbringing, and is a well-known expert
in that field.
Although
her main business is a coffee shop, she is often hired as an escort for
important people because of her prowess.
Actually,
she would have preferred to run a coffee shop on her own, but she is one of the
best in the moon city, and people around her won't leave her alone.
"Apparently,
the space situation is not as good as expected, and they are short of manpower
just to provide security on the moon these days or something ......"
"That's
tough~ working adult......
It hurts!?"
As
I mumbled, Suzu-nee suddenly gave me a flick to the forehead.
"What
are you talking about like it's somebody else's problem? I heard that your
university is responsible for some of the difficulties. Today, too, I'm being
sent to escort a great professor who's coming all the way from Earth."
"Eh...... Could it be that the person
Suzu-nee is escorting is...... Dr. Alice!?"
When
Amane's eyes shined, Suzu-nee naturally nodded.
“I
was asked to guard the perimeter during a lecture by Dr. Alice, a leading
designer of passenger robots...... Why did you know about Dr. Alice?”
"Know
or not, we're going to listen to that lecture today. We were looking forward to
it too!"
While
robot technology is developing worldwide, he is a person who is attracting
attention as the third force, cutting into the two major theories of the most
emerging riding type with his own theory.
We
weren't the only ones looking forward to her lecture.
Anyone
who aspires to be a passenger robot engineer should definitely want to hear
this.
On
the other hand, Suzu-nee doesn't seem to be very familiar with it, and it seems
she can't keep up with Amane's tension.
"Is
she that famous, that girl ......"
While
saying so, Suzu-nee frowns as she looks at a photo that seems to have been
distributed for the protection of important people.
"She
looks like a normal cute girl with glasses and bob-cut hair ...... Dr. Alice
Kamui......huh?"
