Summer, and at the beach, too.
What to do when you encounter a girl alone?
Of course, it's time to hit on her. Now there are two such idiots.
"That girl over there is so cute, is she alone?" The bored man appeared.
Nanami Asami didn't want to pay attention to them, she took out her phone and started playing, pretending not to hear.
"Miss, don't be so cold." His friend next to him also stepped forward to talk: "Want to come play with us?"
"Boring." Nanami Asami didn't even look at them, she spoke directly in a voice that they could just hear.
"Wait, Miss, think about it again." The man stepped forward.
Nanami Asami looked up and stared at them with the same eyes she would use to look at garbage.
"Sorry, sorry." Maybe it was her aura or the social food chain, but the two men looked scared and left in a shaky voice.
…
"Hey, Asami, are you okay?" Kazuya just happened to come back.
"What?" Nanami Asami looked innocent: "Oh, nothing, those two guys were just asking for directions."
If I hadn't seen their pale faces, I almost would have believed her.
As expected, a woman's mouth is like a liar's ghost.
…
Picking up the bag, she continued walking back.
"By the way, Kazuya, what would you have done if they had harassed me before?"
Nanami Asami looked at him with eyes full of admiration. With that look, it's hard to tell if she wants to hear the truth or a lie.
"I don't know." Kinoshita Kazuya imagined it.
He would probably be angry, was it because he couldn't stand it, or because he didn't like Nanami Asami being hit on? Then he would step forward and ask them to leave as a friend. If they continued to harass her, or even if they wanted to fight…
It's easy to be outnumbered. First, take one by surprise and disable him. Attack a man's weakness and quickly disable him. Use brute force on the other, exchanging injuries to quickly end the fight. That way, whether he wins or loses, Nanami Asami will be safe…
"Really, Kazuya is such a cold-hearted man, even my ex-girlfriend is being bullied and he doesn't care." Nanami Asami looked at Kazuya with a teasing smile.
"No."
"What are you saying, Kazuya?"
"Really, I'm saying I won't let you be bullied." Kazuya added a sentence: "As a friend."
"Hey, when did Kazuya learn to be a tsundere?" Nanami Asami laughed happily: "Kazuya, I'm happy with your answer 'as a friend'!"
The two of them set off to find their companions.
…
"Really, why are you two so late?" The senior complained: "I'm about to starve to death."
"Don't mind him." The senior girl pushed him away.
"Kazuya, how does it feel to go shopping with Asami-chan?" The second-year senior teased Kazuya.
"Not good, it feels hot and tiring." Kinoshita Kazuya rolled his eyes at them: "If you have nothing to do, help me put the food away first."
He handed the convenience bag to Kibu, and Kazuya found a bottle of frozen drink from it.
"Whew, so refreshing!
A sip of cold drink, happiness is like a god.
… After lunch.
"Kazuya, want to play cards?"
Ogata brought out a deck of cards.
"No, I'm going to swim in the sea for a while."
Compared to playing UNO under the sun, wouldn't it be more relaxing to float in the sea?
UNO is a card game where players win by getting rid of all their cards. UNO is popular in the West and is a popular game among young people. It's fast-paced, simple to learn, and the rules are very open, so the rules between players can be different.
"Kazuya, wait for me, let's go together." Nanami Asami picked up a watermelon-shaped inflatable and went into the sea.
Kibu Yoshimura looked at Nanami Asami's cheerful smile and looked at Kinoshita Kazuya with concern.
…
"Okay, Asami, you stay here and swim for a while." Kazuya let go of Nanami Asami's hand, which was holding his: "I want to go for a swim first."
"Kazuya, look at me."
Nanami Asami's blue, watery eyes reflected Kazuya's figure.
"Play with me, okay?" Nanami Asami whispered in Kazuya's ear, as if she was acting cute.
Looking at the golden-haired, cute and devilish girl under him.
The two of them looked at each other, their faces flushed unconsciously.
"Then, then I'll play with you for a while, then I'll go swimming." Kinoshita Kazuya didn't dare look directly at Nanami Asami. He had to admit that she seemed to have flirted with him just now. It wasn't the original body's fault, he had been attracted to her for a while.
Nanami Asami felt that her prank was really self-inflicted. Kinoshita Kazuya had been exercising lately, and he was more masculine than before. His muscle lines were also more obvious.
She had her back to the sun just now, and couldn't see his face clearly. But the shadow of the backlight hid a face that made her feel safe. She seemed to have fallen for this Kazuya.
The two of them just played in the water half-heartedly, then separated.
......
Back on shore, they met up with the rest of the group.
"Kazuya, want to play cards?" Ogata asked.
"Sure, what's up?" Kinoshita Kazuya was curious why they asked him specifically. Wasn't there enough people?
"By the way, the rule is that the loser has to play the 'pockygame' with someone of the opposite sex. Is that okay?" Ogata smirked.
Pocky game: Two people are selected by drawing lots or some other method. They each start from one end of the same pocky stick and eat it. Whoever loses their grip or breaks the pocky stick first loses and there is a corresponding penalty. If they keep eating, they will eventually kiss each other.
Kazuya glanced at Nanami Asami: "Then I'll pass, I don't really want to play this game."
"Really?" Ogata was curious why Kinoshita Kazuya would also pass up this game of getting intimate with a girl.
"Then I'll play, but if I lose, can I just play the pocky game with Kazuya? How about it?"
Nanami Asami smiled and made her request, but it was non-negotiable.
"Asami?" Her female friends were all surprised at Nanami Asami's choice.
"It's okay, but...?" As expected of her best friend, Ogata was still concerned about Kinoshita Kazuya.
"Alright, let's start the game!" Asami clapped her hands, focusing everyone's attention on her.
Kinoshita Kazuya: 'What about my opinion?'
…
"Asami." Everyone playing cards this time noticed that Asami seemed to be intentionally losing.
"What's wrong?" Nanami Asami was as carefree as ever, as if she wasn't the one who was intentionally trying to lose.
She was actually curious about what the others were doing.
Unsurprisingly, Nanami Asami lost. Or rather, it would be strange if she won, wouldn't it?
"Kazuya." Nanami Asami sat in her seat, looked up, bit the chocolate bar, and looked at him expectantly: "Here, ah!"
