Chapter 9 - December 24th (Thursday) – Asamura Yuuta

“Now we’ve only got half of our high school lives left, huh?”

I didn’t plan for anybody to hear the words I mumbled to myself, but my good friend sitting in the seat ahead of me unexpectedly turned his large upper body around—Actually, aren’t we still in the middle of our short homeroom?

“Asamura. Starting next year, we gotta put an even bigger focus on our entrance exams.” Maru commented with a quiet voice.

Our homeroom teacher at the front of the class was telling us to be careful during winter break. And with that voice in one ear, I couldn’t help but gulp at Maru’s statement. Entrance exams, huh? Maru continued with a tone of resignation.

“We’ll be adults in no time, after all.”

“I don’t mind the idea of growing up, though.”

If anything, I didn’t like the idea of always staying a child. I don’t want to be sheltered for the rest of my life. Well, the fact is that growing into an adult does seem like an exhausting process. I just remembered my old man’s face… Actually, maybe not that much? Since I can’t remember his exhausted expression after his remarriage, I guess he’s feeling a lot better now that my old mother is gone.

“You’re the type of person who wants to become an adult quickly, huh?”

“And you don’t, Maru?”

“Good question. Since growing up means learning more and more, I’d love some kind of time chamber to just live my life at ease.”

“Ohhh.”

So he wouldn’t have as much time as he’d like if he followed the path of the baseball professional.

“I wouldn’t be able to watch all the seasonal anime.”

“That’s your problem?!”

“I was joking.”

I couldn’t believe my ears and leaned forward as I said that. Was he teasing me or being serious? I still can’t quite tell. The sun tickled my nape, making me turn towards the window. It was shining brightly on the outside. Even during the mid-afternoon, the sun was low, beaming directly on Maru and I: The people sitting next to the windows. Thus, sleepiness assaulted me. The words from our homeroom teacher started to resemble a lullaby, but since a few more minutes would be all it took to end classes, I put up with it.

Finally, the bell rang from the speakers and our homeroom teacher’s mumbling came to an end. All our classmates sighed in unison and then cheered. Our homeroom teacher shook their head once and then left the classroom, warning us one last time not to overdo it.

“We’re still in our second year. Why do they have to give us this whole speech just because it’s Christmas?”

“Huh?” I tilted my head in confusion when Maru said that.

“Illicit relationships and all that. There’s no way I’ll let some adolescent bastards destroy my precious break, right?”

“Agreed. I’d feel the same way.”

“So dear older brother isn’t worried at all?”

Maru using that teasing tone with that vocabulary caused my eyes to shoot wide open.

“What?”

“Knowing Ayase, she’ll probably have plans tonight, no?”

“Tonight?”

“Like a Christmas date.
