Falling in Love with a Sick Girlfriend Twenty Years Younger Than Me

"Oh...I thought it was the meal I made that irritated your stomach."

"No! Your meal suits me well! It's delicious too! Don't worry about it!"

Having finally upgraded from noodles to normal rice, I don't want to go back to the same diet I used to eat a few days ago!

"what......"

Although it's her who caused me and my sister to be awkward... It's better not to say it here, it's not good to affect the cherry blossom viewing in the near future.

"Have you decided on a date? What day is it?"

"Hmm~ It's this day."

Turning the phone screen towards me, Asuna pointed to the red date marked on the screen.

March 3, a very delicate time.If I remember correctly, the cherry blossoms in Tokyo last year seemed to bloom around the 29th. Judging from this year's temperature, this year's blooming time should be about the same.

Do you choose the days after flowering to ensure that you can see the most beautiful cherry blossoms?I tried asking Asuna.

"No? It just happened to be the weekend. Were the cherry blossoms in full bloom at that time? That's really nice!"

It turns out that it's not because I want to wait until the cherry blossoms are in full bloom, but the holiday is just when the cherry blossoms are in full bloom... Lucky for us, we.

That's right, it's 'us'.

From the 28th to the 30th, employees in our company can apply to the company for paid leave according to their own arrangements, and enjoy a maximum of two days of cherry blossom viewing holidays.

Of course, under the premise that it does not affect the work.In this regard, the programmers in the company could not help shedding tears of remorse.

Well, it has nothing to do with me.After the business is over, I don't have any important work recently, so I can ask for leave any day.

Once the date is decided, the next step is the location.I know a lot of cherry blossom viewing spots, but I don't know what Asuna thinks, so let's ask her first.If there is no suitable place, it is not too late for me to make some suggestions.

"Is it alright that day, uncle? You won't go to work overtime again, will you?"

"No problem? There are special holidays for cherry blossom viewing in the company, so there is no problem with the time. Compared to this, where should we go to view cherry blossoms?"

"Well, if you can, it's best to be in Tokyo. If you go elsewhere, you'll miss the best cherry blossom viewing time."

"Want to see the cherry blossoms in the morning? In that case, I know a few good places. If you go there, you don't have to get up early because it's very close."

"What a coincidence, I also know a place. How about we count for three seconds and say an ideal cherry blossom viewing spot at the same time?"

"Okay, come on."

I closed my eyes with Asuna, and after three seconds of silent recitation in my heart, I revealed the place that I liked the most.

""Megurogawa! ""

My voice overlapped with Asuna.In this regard, we tacitly looked at each other and smiled.

Although the Meguro River is an inconspicuous small river, about 3.8 Someiyoshino cherry trees are planted on both sides of the 800-kilometer bank from Ikejiri Bridge to Kameko Bridge in Shinagawa District, so it has become a good place for cherry blossom viewing.

In addition, a grand cherry blossom festival is held there every year, and it has been held for dozens of times so far.When you are tired of shopping, you can buy some snacks in the small shop on the street, sit on the seat by the river bank while eating delicious food, and watch the cherry blossoms scattered on the river.

What's more important to me is that Meguro River is only a few 10 minutes drive from Shibuya, which is quite convenient to go back and forth.If there is no traffic jam, the time will be shorter, but this is probably impossible in Tokyo during the cherry blossom season, right?

"Then, I decided to go to Meguro River, so it's all right?"

"Yes! The last time the fireworks were set off was the uncle's contribution, so leave the lunch box to me this time! I will definitely cook a meal that will satisfy you!"

"Ah, if possible, I still hope to buy and eat on the street."

"Why!?"

"Look, that's the Cherry Blossom Festival, right? There are a lot of small shops that only open their stalls once a year, right? It would be a pity not to try it, wouldn't it?"

"...Rejected! Anyway, Uncle wants to secretly eat some greasy food! I absolutely won't allow it!"

"Tsk! Has it been discovered!"

I clicked my tongue regretfully, but Asuna looked at me with cold eyes.

"Uncle, you really don't know how to take care of your body... Should I just cook the noodles again?"

"It's my fault to get carried away, please don't do that, Asuna-sama!! Also, can you make me some meat if you can?"

"Eh? Ah, ah, if it's just a little... it can only be a little bit?"

"amazing!!"

I was cheering for a little meat, but it must be quite funny in the eyes of others.There is no way, this is all to satisfy my appetite, I also recognize the shame.

——When viewing the cherry blossoms, I secretly bought some skewers and ate them.

----------

It's this season again.At this time, some people are happy and some are sad.

It's March, and it's time to see the cherry blossoms.

As if to welcome the Cherry Blossom Festival, the light snow a few days ago was like a joke, and now Tokyo is so warm that one can't help but wonder if the snow was just a dream.

The blooming flowers in the park, the rising thermometer, the gradually longer days... Every little thing that can be seen everywhere is secretly heralding the arrival of spring.

Through the glass of the office, Kaori quietly watched the happy smiling faces of the people walking on the street, and an inexplicable sadness surged in her heart.

- How is he doing?Do you have a new girlfriend?Are you going to see cherry blossoms this year?Who will be with him?
