Leisure Time

Football match day. After the last meeting of the members of the executive committee, Nao and Atsuto were speaking inside the classroom where the members of the executive committee were waiting.

"Our class is .. Valley A team's second game ..."

Ao Kaede High School football matches will be held for two days, and on the first day there will be gymnasium, volleyball and basketball competitions. This is the team with Kaori and Aika.

"Sir Miyashita, I'm enthusiastic. Somehow, I declared war on all the members and managers of the baseball team, including my seniors."

Atsuto recalled Kaori's performance in the club's activities yesterday. When Nao heard that, he somehow went crazy with his imagination.

"Kaori, I'm so enthusiastic."

"But everyone in our class is relatively active, right? In a ball game.well, roughly one person is dangerous..."

Nao soon found out who it was.

"Yoshikawa-kun, after all, he has been participating in the practice properly since then."

Takumi had been participating properly in the practice since that day. Initially, he had good motor skills, so he immediately mingled with Team B, and he seems to be planning to start in the starting lineup today. It might just not be time, but it doesn't involve Nao or Atsushi at all.

By the way, from that day on, the way my classmates treated Junto got better by the day. However, he did not seem to speak positively at all from Atsushi, and his facial expression remained unchanged, and he continued to build a wall with his surroundings.

Nao looked at Junto like that, and when he spoke to himself, his facial expression changed and he spoke a lot, so I was glad he forgave me, but why was he so stubborn with the wall and the surroundings? if I'm going to keep making it.

While thinking that, Nao glanced at Junto, who was checking the schedule today next door. Then, Atsuto also glanced at Nao. Suddenly my eyes met and I was shocked, and Nao hurriedly turned around and turned his gaze to the schedule he had. Nao felt his face heat up, even though his eyes met slightly.

"Hasumi-kun will appear in the third game of basketball, right?"

Nao shifted the subject to remove the awkwardness that had shifted his gaze. Atsushi seemed strange to see Nao's reaction, but he replied, "That's right," without any particular pretense.

"Do your best. I'll be very supportive of you."

Nao looked at Junto with a wide smile, trying to disguise the heat on his face. Then, this time, Atsushi would throw his face away. She nodded, "Yes," while holding her mouth with her hands.

"……thank you"

Atsushi glanced at Nao and thanked him.

"Then I'll leave because it's my turn."

Atsushi said so and quickly left the classroom. Looking at Atsushi's appearance, Nao wonders if she said something wrong, but her current words are not offensive at all, and Atsushi also thanks her, I think maybe not. Then why? The question did not go away, but I convinced myself that thinking about it was inevitable.

I thought that I was free until the time of the volleyball game, but when I was playing with my smartphone, I was suddenly called, "That's ...".
