Mail Delivery - Chapter 6

[bakemonoremy]

Location: Hallway

Hajime: Huh? Wha? Why are you apologizing? Mitsuru-kun, please raise your head!

Mitsuru: No, I’ll keep speaking like this. You see, I dropped the letter that you entrusted me with, Hajime-chan.

And then I made Suba-chan-senpai help me look for it… I really shouldn’t have gotten him involved, when he’s the one I was supposed to deliver the letter to in the first place. Really, I am so sorry!

Hajime: Mitsuru-kun… It’s okay. Please don’t worry about it so much.

My name is written on the letter, so maybe some nice person will find it and return it to me.

And even if no one finds it, I can just write it again.

Mitsuru: Ah, we actually already found the letter. Mister Masked Pervert picked it up for us.

Hajime: Oh, I see. All’s well that ends well, then ♪

...Mitsuru-kun, I’m sorry to say this after I already asked it of you. But can I hand over that letter myself, after all?

Mitsuru: Huh, are you sure?

Hajime: Seeing how hard you were trying for my sake helped me gather up my courage ♪

Mitsuru: Hajime-chan…

Alright, go for it, Hajime-chan! Hit ‘im with those feelings of yours!



Hajime: Y-yes! I’ll do my best!

Akehoshi-senpai, giving you a letter out of the blue like this may just be a bother to you, but… Well, I don’t need a reply, but please accept this!

Subaru: It’s no bother at all! In fact, I’m really happy~! Thank you, Shinonon ♪

I wonder what’s written in here? Heyhey, is it okay if I read it right away? I wanna read it out loud!

Hajime: What…!? Please don’t, I’d be so embarrassed if you read it in front of me~!

Also, if you read it out loud, everyone’s going to find out just how much I like you, Akehoshi-senpai…

Subaru: That’s alright! I love you too, Shinonon...☆

Hajime: Uwah… Hearing you say that with that smile on your face is making me all dizzy, Akehoshi-senpai…

Subaru: Your smile always makes me dizzy too, Shinonon...☆ (winks)

Hajime: Wawah!? I-I get it already, so please stop~!

Subaru: Sorry, sorry. Oh right, thanks for what you did back at “SakuraFes”, Shinonon!

Hajime: Huh, why are you suddenly bringing that up? You didn’t even read my letter yet…

Subaru: It’s always been at the back of my mind that I still had to thank you for it, so I thought right now would be a good opportunity to do it~♪

Hajime: B-but I didn’t even do anything you’d have to thank me for, Akehoshi-senpai…?

Subaru: Geez Shinonon, didn’t you, well, I mean all of you, advertise for us with your marching band back then?

Thanks to you, “SakuraFes” had a full house, and the excitement carried all the way up to the stage!

I can’t thank you enough~!

Hajime: Akehoshi-senpai…

So you knew about the marching band… Just giving you my letter would’ve already been enough for me, but now I really feel like I’m on cloud nine~♪

Mitsuru: Yep yep, seeing Hajime-chan so happy makes me happy, too! I guess that’s case… Case, what was it again?

Hajime: Fufu, you mean “case closed”~. You know, I’m really glad I mustered up the courage to give Akehoshi-senpai my fan letter in person.

Really, thank you so much, Mitsuru-kun.

Wataru: What a heartwarming tale~. I’m truly fortunate to be witness to such a moving scene ☆

By the way, and I hate to butcher the plot to your tale like this, could this be another letter that you dropped?

Mitsuru: What? I-I’ve never seen that letter in my life! Someone else must’ve dropped that one, no?

Wataru: Hmm, maybe I was mistaken? However, this letter was on the stairway right next to the one you dropped…

Hajime: Huh? Isn’t that the same stationery that you bought at the school store earlier today, Mitsuru-kun?

Mitsuru: Uhii!? N-n-n-no it’s not~!

Wataru: Whoops, were you trying to snatch this letter from my hands? And yet you have no reason to do that, since it doesn’t belong to you, correct?

Mitsuru: U-uu~!
