His Eyes Look Beautiful
"Okay."
Ren remembers what Ichika said.
"By the way, let's exchange contact information so I can inform you when I go to the office this weekend." Saying that, Ichika takes out her phone.
"Go to the office?"
He can understand the previous contact exchange, but what happens after going to the office?
"Yes, didn't you just say that you would support the future I decide? Have you changed your mind so quickly?" Ichika says sadly.
"No."
Thinking about what she said, Ren realizes why she said that.
"That's good."
Seeing him not refusing, Ichika smiles again.
"Are you going to decide to become an actress?" After exchanging LINE and email with her, Ren confirms with her.
"Yes." Putting away her phone, Ichika nods. "Isn't it better to be a role model for my sisters in both aspects?"
"That makes sense."
It doesn't mean Ichika can't consider acting and studying; it's okay to excel in both aspects at the same time.
Ichika holds her hand and pleads, "So, in terms of studying, I entrust it to you."
"Sure." Ren doesn't refuse.
"It seems like I just said a lot." Ichika realizes a bit late.
"Um."
Indeed, she did, but Ren still doesn't fully understand what the woman said.
"Well then, as a thank you for listening to me for so long, you can also ask me some questions and let me answer them. No matter what kind of questions, even if you want to know my measurements."
After saying that, Ichika's face blushes a bit, but even so, Ren still shows an indifferent expression and observes her reaction.
"..."
After hearing what she said, Ren starts to think seriously about what questions he should ask.
The first thing to dismiss is asking about her measurements. He's not interested in that, and there's no need to ask.
"How did you know that I am Kamikawa Naoki?" In the end, Ren chooses to ask this very worrying question.
"Do you remember when you and Nino went to the aquarium together? You signed your name there." Ichika answers honestly. "With the handwriting from that signature, I made sure that you are Kamikawa Naoki."
"I see."
Reminded like this by her, Ren recalls the matter of the signature.
"But don't worry. When I get home this evening, I'll help you get that signature. Then you can write it again with a different handwriting and tear up the original signature." Ichika suggests. "This way, you don't have to worry about being found out by Nino."
"Thank you." Ren expresses his gratitude.
If Ichika is willing to help, it will save him from using his superpowers to modify and recreate his signature.
"No problem, I just want to help you."
Seeing that he approves of her method, Ichika's smile becomes very bright for some reason.
"Do you have any more questions?"
"Nothing left."
In fact, Ren really has no more questions to ask.
"Are you sure you don't want to ask about my body measurements?" Ichika teases.
"No need to ask."
"Oh, so... Wait, you don't need to ask, what do you mean?"
Just as Ichika was about to say something else, she suddenly realizes the choice of her words.
"That's not interesting."
"..."
After arguing with him for a while, Ichika stands up and stretches.
"Class will start soon, let's stop talking here today, I'll go first." Turning around, Ichika says goodbye with a small laugh.
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
In response, Ichika leaves from here, but Ren has no intention of getting up. He just puts his glasses back on and continues sitting here, sorting out his thoughts.
Feeling that he almost understands what Ichika said, he stands up and gets ready to return to class.
After walking a few steps, he meets an acquaintance – Shinomiya Kaguya.
"Kamikawa-kun?"
Kaguya who has just finished an interview with the media, is slightly surprised to see Ren appear in front of her.
Usually, no one comes to this side of the lake, and even she came here only because the news club chose to interview here. But even so, she can meet Ren.
She has to say that this is a coincidence.
Ren greets proactively: "Good day."
"Good day." Kaguya replies.
After both parties finish their greetings, there is a silent understanding, and they don't continue the conversation.
Seeing Ren standing not far from her, Kaguya wants to find some topics to take advantage of this opportunity to get some information.
But because they met suddenly, she can't think of anything to talk about for a while.
At this moment, suddenly the sound of falling water is heard from afar, as if something heavy fell into the water.
"Hm?"
This strange movement immediately catches Kaguya's attention, and she turns to look up.
She sees a girl struggling in the lake.
"Someone fell into the water!"
Seeing this, Kaguya rushes closer.
Kaguya knows the girl who fell into the water; her name is Asahi Shizuku, the head of the media club, and she's the one who invited her to come here for the interview.
Fortunately, the place where she fell into the water is not far from them, and Kaguya quickly rushes to the nearest lake shore with Shizuku.
Ren also comes, seeing the girl who fell into the water, and starts thinking.
Kaguya quickly thinks about how she can save Shizuku. She can swim, but the problem is that saving is different from swimming; something easily happens that causes both of them to have an accident together.
There is no rope or anything around that can be tied to her body. After she jumps down to save the other, Ren can pull them both up together.
However, Shizuku is not too far from the lake; even if she jumps in by herself without a rope, she can definitely save her.
Seeing Shizuku struggling in the lake, Kaguya decides to jump in to save her.
"Kamikawa-kun, wait for me..."
Just as she was about to tell Ren to wait and help later, she suddenly hands over her phone and wallet to him, interrupting what she hasn't finished saying.
"Hold these for me."
After saying that, Ren takes off his glasses, hands them to her, and then jumps into the lake.
"Eh?!"
Kaguya who is forced to hold the phone, wallet, and glasses, freezes in place.
All she can think of is the image of Ren taking off his glasses and jumping into the lake earlier.
His eyes look very beautiful...
