Dairoku - Semi Tokitsugu Short Story

The hand of the clock passes the top and points to 1:00. It's 1 in the morning.

I leaned my body against the backrest and looked up to rest my overworked head.

The white ceiling was dazzling and I covered my eyelids with the back of my hand.

What comes to my mind is her.

It was only after this incident that I realized this feeling, and I wondered if the name of this feeling that became embarrassing and warm despite my age was "love."

I laughed at myself when I went to her with an uncharacteristically changed expression.

There shouldn't have been any problems, but I wonder what she thinks.

I know I'm smug, but it's not bad ...... I think.

She wouldn't offer me her lap pillow on someone she doesn't care about.

Or, what's really going on is that she felt she was sexually harassed by her boss, and she didn't like it.

"Ah... it's no good, to think unnecessary things"

I raised her upper body and put my jacket on the backrest and loosened my chest a little.

I stretched once, and then I leaned back against the sofa. I move my body from side to side to find just the right position.

The sound of fabric rubbing against the body and sofa cushions are comfortable to hear.

Should I just take a nap?

Sometimes that's good too.

I'm not slacking off. It’s a short break to improve work efficiency.

I randomly flipped through a magazine on the table and put it over my eyelids instead of an eye mask, and my consciousness faded away in no time.

When I open my eyelids again, in my blurry vision, black hair is reflected in the familiar mauve scenery.

Her white palm, which could be seen as a smile or a sad expression, gently caressed my cheek.

"Aki... tsu?"

The feeling of her caressing my cheek is comfortable as I entrust myself to her.

I know it's a dream.

It's a dream, so let's go with it.

"Akitsu, what do you think of me? To be honest, I don't think you hate me… But I'd be very embarrassed if I was being delusional..."

At first, I thought of Akitsu as a very cute junior, a precious member I hadn't gotten in a long time.

But before I knew it, she slowly entered my gap, and yet she hasn't come to the point where I don't like it. I think it was a comfortable relationship between a boss and subordinate.

But when I heard that someone would harm Akitsu, my heart sank. I couldn't stay calm when I thought that something happened to Akitsu.

Neither she nor Tadashi would have noticed but Etsuya did.

No matter how much I pretend to be that person, I still can't beat him.

"Hey, Akitsu... if you think the same way about me, can I have your lips like this?"

How can it be so convenient just because it's a dream? ...... When I open my eyelids, my vision is shaded and her lips are close to mine.

The moment I thought I could touch her like this…

────── Beep Beep Beep! ! ! ! ! !

I am pulled back to reality by the electronic sound that echoes in inorganic matter.

"──── I knew it."

I'm not even an adolescent student anymore…

I'm so ashamed of myself, I can't stop holding my head over the magazine…

This is the alarm sound I put on just in case. It’s time for my patrol.

I'm in charge of patrolling around Makatsuchi tonight.

On my way home, I'm going to have a cup of tea at Akuro's place.

With that thought in mind, I raised my heavy body, put the magazine down, and left the room.

It's probably your fault that I dream about things that don't seem right... and that I have a little faith in the horoscope I read in a magazine.

I fell in love with you... It’s all your fault...
