My fiance looks happy while watching fireworks
“All right.”
As soon as we returned home from the summer festival, Yuuka filled a bucket full of water and then placed it in the yard.
Her long black hair was tied up in a braid, giving off a different impression from her usual image.
“Alright, Yuu-kun, in a moment... the second fireworks display will begin! Ehehehe.”
With a happy-looking expression, Yuuka put her hands on her hips.
Seeing her act, I just laughed while putting the fireworks I had bought next to the bucket.
“Even if you say this the second... but basically, we almost didn’t see the first one, right?”
“Geez, you’re too concerned with details like that! But well, how about calling it fireworks display at the midnight? Or a fireworks display that other people don’t know about?”
“Doesn’t that even sound weird?”
While talking like that, Yuuka and I took the fireworks and then lit them using matches.
Ssrrrrr.... while making a squealing sound, brilliant sparks erupted from the fireworks I was holding.
After that, we set off the rat fireworks.
“Kyaa, the fireworks are coming this way!”
Yuuka ran behind me, trying to escape the moving fireworks while making a shrill sound.
This moment of playing fireworks, only the two of us enjoyed it. Even though it’s not as spectacular as the fireworks display at the festival... but strangely it feels really fun.
“Alright, now for the last fireworks... the incense fireworks!”
While saying that, Yuuka handed me on stick of firework, and then, the two of us crouched down and lit the fireworks.
When I saw Yuuka’s appearance in her yukata and braided hair, I felt that she looked really charming..., and suddenly my heart was beating fast.
“...Hey, Yuu-kun?” While gazing at the sparks of the fireworks, Yuuka muttered quietly to me. “Thanks for today... Also, sorry, that I told Nihara-san about our ‘secret’.”
“No, the one who should be apologizing is me. Sorry, all this time I’ve been making you act like you’re my sister.”
After saying that, we fell silent again, continuing to stare at the lit fireworks.
It seems, my firework burns faster? Not really..., surprisingly Yuuka’s fireworks also burn quickly.
“Whose fireworks do you think will go out first?”
As if she could read my mind, Yuuka smiled at me.
“Do you want to compete? Will your firework go out first or mine?”
“Sure.”
“By the way, the loser will be punished.”
“Why the hell is there even a punishment? Isn’t it not fair to just say that now——”
Maybe it was because I was trying to protest, but just then, the tip of my fireworks suddenly fell to the ground.
“You lost!”
“Isn’t that unfair?”
“It’s fair!”
Holding the still burning fireworks in one hand, with her other hand Yuuka waved me over to her.
Haaah, how does she want to punish me?”
With that in mind, I moved closer to Yuuka
——Cup!
“——?!”
Surprised by the soft touch on my lips, I frantically stood up.
Yuuka, who was still crouched and kept looking at the fireworks, glanced at me with flushed cheeks.
“The punishment is that the loser mu be kissed by the winner!”
While giggling, Yuuka said that.
Her expression makes her look like Yuuna-chan, but..., I feel it’s a little different.
Whatever it was, one thing for sure is the charming smile she shows makes my heart beat so fast.
“I hope that from now and in the future we can both spend our time full of fun and smiles.”
Listening to Yuuka who muttering that, I want to tell her how I feel honestly.
“There hasn’t been an unpleasant day since you came to my life, Yuuka.”
“...Realy?”
“I don’t even remember how I used to spend my days when you weren’t around... And if you weren’t around, my days would probably be boring.”
“Ehehehe, don’t worry about that! I swear... I’ll never leave your side, Yuu-kun!”
Just then, Yuuka’s fireworks fell to the ground.
Then, after placing the charred fireworks into the bucket, Yuuka stood up slowly, and—face me.
“I, Yuuka, will always be by your side! So..., let’s laugh together!”
Thanks a lot for the translation!
