Imagawa Kaede tugged at the blue tie on his white short-sleeved shirt, as if that would make him feel a little cooler.

"It's still hot after all. Should we go to Karuizawa during the summer vacation?"

"Would you like a cold drink?" Listening to Imagawa Kaede's complaints, Shiina Mahiru pointed to the cold drink shop on the roadside and asked.

"No, I have to go back and enjoy the air conditioning. I'll leave the shopping for ingredients to Mahiru." After saying that, he ran away.

Seeing this scene, Mahiru smiled, but didn't say much.

She was not in a very good mood today, but after interacting with Shinomiya Kaguya in the archery club, her mood inexplicably improved.

She was a little confused about what she was thinking, and she felt that she was a little weird.

There was nothing between Kaguya Shinomiya and Kaede Imagawa, but although he appeared to be nonchalant about Imagawa Kaede's previous infatuation with Kaguya Shinomiya,

But in fact, she still had some hostility towards Kaguya Shinomiya, although she also understood that if Kaguya had not expressed her dislike for Imagawa Kaede, then she might not have had any chance of success.

From this perspective, it seems that she should thank Kaguya Shinomiya?

Life over the past few months seemed magical to her, with all the ups and downs making it feel even harder.

Thinking back to that morning, she still hated him terribly.

A strange marriage contract, being asked to live together, being treated coldly, and being looked down upon by family members...

Finally, it was...

That morning, she realized that she could not retaliate and could only endure silently. In her despair, she was actually thinking about what would happen if she could just endure it all.

Then she, Shiina Mahiru, would be a good child in her parents' eyes, right? She would get praise from her mother, right?

Thinking of this, Mahiru, who was selecting ingredients, frowned, but quickly relaxed.

When she was a child, she also thought about what kind of person she would fall in love with and what kind of person she would marry.

Handsome, talented, gentle personality...

When she first met her so-called fiancé, he acted very cold and even a little resistant.

He had never thought of marrying someone who didn't like him.

But she didn't like him either, because of the competitive spirit of a little girl.

After accepting it calmly, what she wanted to do was to make this person like her and change his bad habits in the past, and then it would not be impossible for her to fall in love with him again.

This was her somewhat naive thought at the time, but fortunately, now she does like this person as she had expected.

In front of the cash register.

"That kid didn't come today, is there a conflict?"

"No, it's just that he thought the weather was too hot today and went back early to use the air conditioning."

"Yeah, that guy is very handsome, you have to pay more attention to him, don't...what's the word? Yes, tsundere, don't be tsundere."

"Well, I'll go back first."

In the past few months, she and Imagawa Kaede have become regular customers here. It is hard to imagine that the old lady in front of her, who looks like a clerk, is actually the owner of this store.

And she also got into the habit of chatting with this somewhat nosy old lady every time she paid.

"After returning from Karuizawa, if you have time, go visit your parents separately."

As she thought about this, she added:

"With him."

At this point, she no longer forces her parents to live in harmony, nor does she demand their love anymore.

She wants to pursue the happy life she wants, and try her best to make her and his future different from theirs.
