While I Was Giving Love Advice to My Best Friend, the School's Most Beautiful Girl Somehow Became the Closest Person to Me-Chapter 3Volume 1 .10 - Me, the Angel, and the Clumsy Beauty
Me, the Angel, and the Clumsy Beauty
“Eh!?”
I hear Asahina-san’s voice from behind, and she’s glancing over at me.
Could it be…? Did the staff ask her if she would be carried by me?
While I’m hesitating, Cure Cure has already kicked the monster away.
『Now, little brother! It’s time to save your Onee-san!』
I’m not her brother… But I still rush over to where Asahina-san is.
“Are you okay?”
“Yeah… They told me I’d be carried…”
“Let’s just play along and get out of here.”
『Alright, Ototo-san, let’s rescue Onee-san with a princess carry!』
“Princess carry!?”
The staff are getting carried away thinking we’re siblings!
“Go for it, Ototo-san, show us what you’ve got!”
“I wish I had a sister like that! I’m so jealous!”
“You can do it!”
The audience starts to get into it too. Maybe being mistaken for a couple would have been better.
As I’m wondering what to do, at that moment…
“Nii-Nii! Carry Onee-san!”

I hear the beloved voice of Hiyori. Then Asahina-san approaches me.
“I’m fine with it. Let’s end this on a good note.”
“Really?”
“It’s embarrassing, but… well… if it’s you, Kogure-kun…”
Asahina-san’s cheeks turn red, and I can’t help but feel my heart race.
If she’s made up her mind, then I must respond.
I apologize quietly and wrap my arms around her back and under her knees.
“Here we go…!”
I never imagined this would happen… carrying everyone’s admiration Asahina Alisa is so embarrassing that I can’t even look at her face.
“Onee-san, please hold on tight so your Ototo-san doesn’t get tired.”
“O-okay.”
Wow…
Asahina-san is hugging me from the front. I definitely can’t look at Asahina-san’s face. I won’t be able to handle it otherwise…
“This is embarrassing.”
“It’s the same for me too…”
“We’ll take a photo later, so please stay like this for a while.”
“Are you serious!”
And just like that, it all ends with a grand finale. During that time, I continue to hold Asahina-san in my arms.
I try to speak to Asahina-san, who is looking away.
“Um, Asahina-san, are you feeling okay?”
“I’m okay. Besides, I’m getting used to it.”
“Ugh…”
“Don’t touch any weird places, okay? I’ll know if you do.”
“I wont. Sigh.”
“Maybe… um… that…”
Asahina-san seemed to hesitate in her words. She almost lost her balance, so I lifted her slightly to help her regain her posture.
“You’ve been looking a bit strained. Am I heavy?”
“No, considering your figure, it’s surprisingly quite light.”
“!”
“Ow, ow, ow, why are you pulling my cheek!”
I winced as she pulled my cheek hard. I had tried to be polite by saying she was light, yet somehow I ended up being scolded.
“I guess it’s true I am (physically) large.”
“Well… (your chest) it’s quite large. Ow!”
“Hmph.”
I really don’t understand girls!
The staff brought Hiyori in her Cure Cure costume and took a photo with the people in mascot suits, and with that, it was finally over.
I set Asahina-san down on the floor, and we exchanged dry laughs as if to agree to forget everything that had happened today.
The Cure Cure Show, which turned out to be more challenging than expected, was over, and as we looked at souvenirs in the shop, the time approached evening.
“It looks like it’s going to rain tonight, so how about we go on one more ride before heading back?”
“That sounds good. What do you want to ride, Hiyori-chan?”
“The Ferris wheel!”
Indeed, it seemed fitting for the last attraction. However, the Ferris wheel goes even higher than the roller coaster.
For Asahina-san, who’s not fond of heights…
“I’m fine with the Ferris wheel.”
“Don’t you know it’s very high up?”
“I know. But on the Ferris wheel, I feel like I have something to stand on.”
Asahina-san took Hiyori’s hand.
“Let’s go. We should hurry before it gets dark.”
With her hair fluttering, Asahina Alisa headed towards the Ferris wheel. I wished I could have seen such a confident figure in the morning.
Despite often thinking ‘what is this person saying?’, maybe I’ve come to know her more than I thought.
We got on the Ferris wheel and took our seats. Hiyori and Asahina-san sat side by side, and I sat opposite them.
Then the gondola slowly ascended. It was the perfect time to see the sunset, so the view from up high was amazing.
“Oh…”
Following Asahina-san’s voice, I looked forward to see Hiyori dozing off.
“She was jumping around a lot during the show, so she must be tired.”
“Hehe, how cute. Shall we let her sleep until we get down?”
Asahina-san gently cradled Hiyori in her arms. It was a reassuring sight to see her so caring to Hiyori.
“Hiyori had a great time today thanks to you, Asahina-san. Thank you.”
“Yes. I had a lot of fun too. I really thought I’d like to have Hiyori-chan as my real little sister. Give her to me.”
“Ahaha. I absolutely won’t hand her over.”
Still, I also had fun myself.
I had never spent time like this with a girl. In that sense—
“It would have been nice if Otsuki-san could have come too.”
“Yes. That was Kogure-kun’s purpose, after all.”
“Well, that’s part of it… I thought maybe Asahina-san would have been calmer on the Horror World ride or the roller coaster she was here. I;m a man, after all.”
I think if Asahina-san’s best friend had been by her side, she wouldn’t have been so scared.
Of course, it was Asahina-san’s choice, so it’s not like I’m to blame or anything.
“By the way, is Otsuki-san’s cold better now?”
“Yeah, she messaged me and said her fever’s gone down, so she can move around now.”
“That’s good to hear…”
“Oh, you really like Shizuku that much, huh? I caught a nice glimpse of your face.”
“No, it’s not like I have any particular feelings for Otsuki-san.”
“Are you blushing?”
“I’m not blushing.”
“I wonder if you’d worry about me if I got a fever or something.”
“Of course I would. ”
“Ugh!”
To my unexpected response, Asahina-san let out a stunned voice. I’m not such a heartless person.
After all, Asahina-san and Otsuki-san are the people I talk to the most aside from Reo, so it’s only natural I’d be worried if something happened to them.
“If something happened to Asahina-san, Hiyori, who’s happily sleeping there, would be sad too.”
“Ah, I see. Kogure-kun, you’re an extreme siscon.”
“Even if Otsuki-san might handle it, please tell me too if you’re really in trouble. I’ll help you if I can.”
“…Yes, I’ll ask you then.”
And with that, Asahina-san and I fell silent. The gondola we were on had started its descent.
It would be over soon.
“Now that I think about it, I did something a little embarrassing this morning.”
“It wasn’t just a little, it was quite a lot.”
“Glare.”
The glare of a beauty! I let out a small shriek.
“But thank you for not abandoning me when I was confused. Even though I’m here for Hiyori-chan, I’m glad I got to hang out with you, Kogure-kun.”
Asahina-san’s smile, illuminated by the setting sun, was so beautiful…
Even though I was not in love with her, I was dazzled enough to blush.
“Are you blushing, Kogure-kun?”
“I’m not blushing.”
“Hehe, it was also good practice for me to interact with boys.”
“Then come with another boy and scream and cling to him next time.”
“I won’t do that again! Hmph, I’ll never show such an unsightly display to anyone ever again.”
She’s talking big. I wonder if she’ll really be okay.
A mischievous thought sprouted in me, and I suggested to Asahina-san to look not at the distant scenery but at the ground beneath the ferris wheel.
“I told you I’m fine, wait… no, what’s this! Scary!”
“It makes you re-realize the height, doesn’t it?”
“Ahhh, idiot-idiot! Nooo!”
As beautiful as Asahina-san is, I also find her teary-eyed and scared expression endearing.
She might get angry later, but… well, it’s just this once, so it’s fine. However, it was a bit awkward when Asahina-san didn’t move her gaze even a millimeter and just stared at me.
The sun set, and the gondola slowly made its way to the goal.
“Yawn… Nii-Nii, what’s wrong with Onee-san?”
Just as Hiyori woke up and the attendant’s voice overlapped… our day of fun came to an end.
I was scolded by Asahina-san afterward.
