After Cento-san and Tre-san finished talking, or rather, after Tre-san finished getting scolded, we went back to going around the stall in the plaza again, when we came across a strange stall.
It was a stall with red and blue doors, but I have no idea what kind of stall it was.
[Tre-san, do you know what that stall is?]
[Ahh, that’s a maze stall. When that door is opened, it becomes a space created by Space-Time Magic which leads to several doors that were just like that, and it feels like you would pass through them one after another. The prizes in the last room seem to be different depending on which rooms you pass through.]
[Heehhh…… So there are stalls like that huh.]
[Since we’re at it, why don’t we try it out? It can be entered with pairs, so Kaito and I will enter together, while Cento and Cien would be another pair.]
[Indeed. Since there’s an opportunity……]
A stall that was created because Space-Time Magic exists…… It’s a simple one with you just selecting the doors you will go through, but it certainly isn’t strange for an attraction.
Since we’ve come across a stall like this, I would like to try it out, so after we paid the entrance fee, we tried challenging the maze stall.
[……Well then, let’s take turns choosing doors. You go first, Kaito.]
[Hmmm, let’s go with the red door then.]
[Alright, let’s go~~]
Inside, there was a square room with three doors in it, one in front, and two on both sides, and it seems like these would be the doors we will be selecting in. Although it’s somewhat a maze-like in structure, it isn’t really a maze, as if you apparently go through some doors a certain number of times, you will always get to the goal.
[How many doors have we opened now?]
[Hmmm, I think we’ve gone through 5 doors?]
[I see……]
As I watched Tre-san carefully choosing which door to pick, something suddenly came to mind. Since I’m now alone with Tre-san, I’ve got something I wanted to ask her.
[Tre-san.]
[Unnn?]
[I know it’s strange to ask this, but Tre-san often tells me about how it’s fate we met and let’s go out with each other, right?]
[That’s right? You feel like marrying now?]
[Nope.]
[That’s strange? That should have been the perfect moment-]
Tre-san’s reaction was the same as usual, but for the time being, I’ll ask about that.
[Tre-san, what is it about me that makes you say that?]
[Eh? I wonder? I don’t know.]
[Eeeehhhh……]
[In other words, this is about that, right? It’s about what I like about Kaito. Unnn, I don’t know!]
As I looked at Tre-san, wondering if that is really something she should proudly say, Tre-san’s expression turned slightly serious and she continued.
[Well, I mean, even if I say that, Kaito and I have only known each other for a short time. That being the case, I don’t want to say I like this or that about Kaito when I clearly don’t know what I’m talking about.]
[……Fumu.]
[In the first place, that spark I felt when we first met was something I felt for the first time. I kinda felt that being together with Kaito would be fun. In fact, my hunch was right and I have fun being with you. It’s just, well, if you ask me how and why exactly I like you, I wouldn’t know what to answer.]
Saying this with a fun smile on her lips, Tre-san chose a door and opened it. Holding hands with her and entering the next room, and while I looked at the three doors in front of us, Tre-san continued.
[Emotions are something difficult to understand. Even if you know you like something, wouldn’t it be difficult for you to explain it specifically?]
[Now that you mentioned it, it certainly would be difficult to give a detailed account of the reasons why I like something.]
[Unnn, unnn. That’s why, wouldn’t it be alright to say “I kinda like you”…… At least, for now……]
Nodding to the words Tre-san calmly said, I also chose a door and opened it. An explanation of the emotion called like…… It certainly may be difficult to explain.
I think I can say I like a person because of this and that, but it may be difficult for me to concretely explain it in detail.
[It feels comfortable talking with you, so I kinda like you. It’s fun being together with you, so I kinda like you. I can compete with you on the same level, so I kinda like you…… I think it would be good if I could slowly build up these small likes within my heart. And so, when I think I’ve learned a lot about Kaito by accumulating all of these, I think that would be the time I could say what I like about Kaito.]
[……I see.]
Tre-san seemed to be thinking about me more seriously than I thought, and her words asking me to marry her or go out with her weren’t just practical jokes, and realizing this, how should I say this…… I feel a little ticklish and glad.
[Fuuu, well, I don’t think Kaito should be in a hurry. Even if you don’t rush yourself, you’d soon be madly in love with my overflowing adult charm!]
[Hmmm, even if I do fall madly in love with Tre-san in the future, I don’t think the reason would be that adult charm.]
[Eh~~!? I mean, I’m the neighborhood onee-chan, you know? The good-for-nothing onee-chan with 100,000 Sis Power, you know?]
[What’s with that Sis Power?]
[Look, it’s just like how Sis Ei often describes people with Maid Power, so wouldn’t it be okay if there’s also stuff like Sis Power and Onee-chan Aura?]
Hearing her argument, I couldn’t help chuckling. How should I say this…… She really is a pleasant person…… and just like Tre-san said, being together with her is fun.
[I recommend you make your advance through a different route. Tre-san doesn’t really feel like someone older……]
[W- What did you say…… If you say such things, I’ll eventually awaken my Sis Power and have you regret my words!]
[What will happen when it awakens?]
[No clue!]
[If the person herself doesn’t know, that doesn’t seem like it would be anything good then.]
[No good huh~~ How unfortunate.]
[Ahaha.]
Even though I hardly have any expectations with her Sis Power awakening or even that adult charm of hers…… but I already think that Tre-san was an attractive woman, enough that I feel like I could like her even more than I do now.
