Chapter 295: A different Miyagi — 295

There are three more Miyagi on the phone.

I was supposed to stop at two pictures, but I got one more, but two or three pictures won’t make much difference, and if I don’t show Miyagi, she won’t complain.

I would have liked to have taken a video, but as expected, I refrained from doing so.

It’s not a bad idea to save a picture of Miyagi, who is weak and relies on me, on my phone. But if I’m going to take a picture of Miyagi, I’d rather have a healthy Miyagi, and I’d better ask for permission before taking the picture.

Well, Miyagi is not likely to allow me to take a video.

?Why are you looking at me like that??

On the other side of the table, Miyagi, who was eating the egg rice porridge I had made, raises her eyebrows grimly.

?I was thinking I’d like to take a video next time.?

?…What do you mean by “video”??

?Video of Miyagi. Can I take it??

?What’s the point??

?I knew you would say that.?

?If you think so, don’t bother asking.?

Miyagi says in a low voice and eats a bowl of rice gruel.

The bowl is almost empty, and I am relieved to see that Miyagi has a good appetite. That’s a good trend, because last night she left a rice porridge. However, I can’t rest easy because her temperature was still a little over 37 degrees Celsius when I measured it earlier.

?Are you done eating??

I didn’t make that much because it was breakfast and because of last night. But if she has an appetite, I can make a little more.

?Sendai-san, you immediately try to fatten people up.?

?That’s not what I meant. The rice gruel, I was just wondering if that was enough for you.?

I hope you eat a lot and get better soon.

That is the only reason for making rice gruel, not to make Miyagi look delicious and fat.

?It’s enough.?

After answering shortly, Miyagi ate the rice gruel left in her bowl clean and then said quietly without looking at me.

?Sendai-san… Your body, was it okay??

?That’s my side of the talk. Are you okay, Miyagi??

Since it was Miyagi who caught a cold, it is also Miyagi who is worried.

If she has time to worry about others, she should worry about herself, and I hope she gets over her cold completely soon. But Miyagi didn’t answer my question, but continued with the word?Because,?and then she said was grumbling,?You were sleeping on the floor, Sendai-san.?

?I’m just alright.?

Indeed I was sleeping on the floor of Miyagi’s room.

But Miyagi doesn’t have to worry about that.

After cleaning up after dinner, I went to Miyagi’s room to be near her, who still had a fever. I watched Miyagi for a long time, felt sleepy, and just fell asleep, using the floor as my bed.

If Miyagi were healthy, she would have made room for me next to her, but I wouldn’t sleep with her by pushing the sick to the edge.

?…When you woke up, you said you were in pain.?

It was supposed to be a small voice that came out unexpectedly, but it was heard.

?Well, my body was a little sore, but I’m fine now.?

?Sendai-san catches a cold easily, but have you caught a cold??

?I’m alright.?

Unfortunately, I add in my mind.

It is a silly thing to say that a cold can be cured by passing it on to someone else, but if Miyagi can get well by passing a cold on to me, that would be fine. But reality is not that simple, and if I catch a cold now, there will be no one to take care of Miyagi.

?Forget about me, Miyagi, you worry about yourself.?

?I’m cured already.?

?You still have a fever. There’s no way you’re getting better.?

?It’s almost nothing.?

?You need to back off properly.?

?My fever goes down fast.?

Miyagi is overconfident in herself.

She may be confident in her physical strength, but a fever cannot be brought down by sheer force of will, nor can it be brought down by her saying it will go down immediately. Even if it does go down, it’s possible to be fine in the morning and then feel sick at night with a fever that rises again.

It’s not good to let one’s guard down.

If she has been fighting off colds at this rate all this time, Miyagi may not live long.

——I don’t want that to be the case.

?When you say things like that, your fever rises… Would you like me to take today’s part-time job off and stay with you??

?…I don’t like your part-time job, but you don’t need to take time off.?

?Are you really okay with that??

.

?I’m not a child, so don’t worry so much. But, Sendai-san, you need to eat properly.?

Miyagi said in a firm voice and pointed to the bowl of rice gruel in front of me.

?Well, I’ll be back as soon as I can, so just be an adult.?

?I don’t need to be told, I’m an adult.?

I hear a low voice and I took a spoonful of the almost-cooled rice gruel into her mouth. She took a bite or two, then I look at Miyagi, who meets my eyes with hers and averts them. As she took another bite, I hear a small voice say, ?Thanks for the meal. It was delicious,?I hear a little voice say, and I reply,?You’re welcome.?

The rice gruel I made for Miyagi, who said she didn’t like porridge because it lacked flavor, was apparently to her liking.

?Sendai-san.?

Miyagi calls me in a voice I almost miss.

?What is it??

?Yesterday, I…?

The muffled voice quickly faded away, and I couldn’t make out what she was saying.

?Miyagi——?

My attempts to listen back were drowned out by a slightly louder voice saying,?It’s nothing.?

?Say it properly, Miyagi.?

?It’s nothing.?

?I’m curious, you know??

?Then erase all memories of now and yesterday.?

?That’s impossible.?

?Do it, even if you can’t.?

?Why??

?Do it no matter what.?

Miyagi stares at me as if she will not let me say anything more.

I can imagine why she would do this.

Perhaps she is concerned about what kind of person she was yesterday.

I wondered if I had said something, or what I had done.

I don’t know if she is saying this because she remembers or because she doesn’t remember, but I do know that the Miyagi I saw was the person she didn’t want me to see.

?I just want to make sure I have the memory you want me to erase of, Miyagi. Is that what you said yesterday when you were sleeping??

She can give me a blank answer, but I’m going to voice what I want to hear just in case.

?…What did I say??

I hear a probing voice.

Apparently, she doesn’t remember.

That she had called me many times.

That she believed I will come back to this house.

All of them are important to me, but if I tell her, she will definitely deny it. That is not interesting. It is as uninteresting as Miyagi meeting someone who is not me.

?You said you wanted to kiss me.?

I chuckle as I utter the words that can be denied.

?…I definitely didn’t say that.?

?You said it.?

?I definitely not.?

Miyagi assured me and kicked my leg under the table. It was quite strong, and when I involuntarily voiced my pain, a cold voice replied,?You deserved it.?

?Your cold has passed, Miyagi.?

?When I get over my cold, I’m going to see penguins, not kiss them.?

Unexpected words come out of Miyagi, who remains mushed up.

?The penguins, you’ve already seen them.?

Although it is a video, it serves the purpose of watching penguins.

?And I promised we’d go see it. How about this Sunday??

?Isn’t it too soon? Maybe you haven’t recovered from your cold, can’t it be later??

?It’s not fine.?

?Don’t be in such a hurry, the penguins won’t run away.?

?…I keep my promises, the sooner the better.?

?You kept your word, didn’t you??

?I just saw them on video, I didn’t go to see them.?

They say Miyagi is not flexible.

She didn’t go anywhere, but she did see the penguins, so I think it’s safe to say that she kept her word.

For me, whether or not I went to see the show is a trivial matter. As long as Miyagi is with me, I don’t have to worry about the “going” part. I want to see Miyagi happy to see the penguins, but it is more important that Miyagi be healthy.

?You don’t have to be so strict about it.?

?I want to keep my promises. So please keep them, Sendai-san.?

?You like to make promises, don’t you, Miyagi??

?I don’t like it. I just don’t like those to be ripped off.?

?Well then, let’s just make a promise that we’ll go see the penguins sometime.?

I have no problem with more commitments to Miyagi, in fact, I welcome them. I would like to see more and more of them. And I’m honestly happy to be able to go out with Miyagi.

But I don’t want her to stick to her word and hide the fact that she’s not feeling well.

?Sendai-san, you’re so quick to say half-baked things.?

?It’s not half-baked. This too is a promise.?

I stand up and touch Miyagi’s plumeria earrings.

I want to kiss her to pledge my promise, but not today.

It’s not too late to kiss Miyagi after she gets better.
