Chapter 1551 Gifts for My Lovers ②

I came to visit Shiro-san with the original accessory in hand, and she already looked like she was in a good mood.

I wryly smiled at how easy-to-tell her emotions are at the moment, but since she already knew what my purpose here is, I decided to get right to the point.

[Shiro-san, I made an original accessory based on you, and I'm wondering if you would like to have it.]

[Thank you, it makes me very happy.]

What I prepared for Shiro-san was a necklace made of Rainbow Diamonds. In the art battle back in the Six Kings Festival, I once created some sort of sad creature, but even though it might just be self-praise, this necklace is really well done.

No, well, that sad creature had made a great leap and has become an idol prayed to by Gun Rock Dragons, so in a sense, you can say that it's also a great success but...

In any case, unlike back in the Six Kings Festival, I was able to look at reference materials and Alice gave me advice on how to make them, and with the shape of a flower, I think it's a pretty good job.

When I presented her with such a necklace, Shiro-san spoke with a smile on her lips.

[Oops, oh my. This is troubling. My hands are full at the moment.]

[Eh? What are you saying————- Wait, since when is that staff in your hands!? Also, what's the point of holding that with both hands?]

Somehow, before I knew it, Shiro-san was holding a staff as big as Iris-san's ἀποκάλυψις in both hands. Yeah, her hands certainly are blocked. Or rather, she had blocked them... What is this? What's her purpose for having that?

[In that case, can't Kaito-san put the necklace on me?]

[Eh? Ahh, so that's what's happening...]

[What do you mean? My hands just happened to be full.]

Apparently, she wanted me to put the necklace on her and was doing that small play. How should I say this... That's just like Shiro-san, so I involuntarily chuckled.

However, since I don't have any particular reason to refuse, I decided to approach Shiro-san and put the necklace on her neck. Since we are about the same height, I should be able to smoothly... smoothly... Well, seems like putting a necklace on someone is harder than I thought.

[...Alright, with this———!?]

While struggling, I managed to securely put the necklace on her. Just when I was about to let go of my hands though, Shiro-san's face unexpectedly came close and she lightly kissed my lips.

It was completely unexpected, and when I stiffened in surprise, Shiro-san happily smiled and spoke.

[...Thank you. Does it suit me?]

[Y- Yes, it suits you.]

[Fufu, I'm glad.]

Kuh, frustrating it may be, but she's absurdly cute. Perhaps, because she's growing mentally more and more, she's recently been making surprise attacks like this, making Shiro-san quite formidable.

It's just, well, even though it's an accessory made by an amateur, I'm happy to hear that she's happy with it.

Having such thoughts in mind, Shiro-san happily looked at the necklace before speaking again.

[Speaking of which, Kaito-san... I was the first one, yes?]

[Eh? If you mean the order in which I'm handing the accessories, then you are the first. Alice also mentioned that she would like me to give her present later, not in that situation, so I haven't given her her accessory yet...]

[I see, I see.]

Shiro-san, who heard my words, nodded with a very satisfied expression on her face. Shiro-san certainly has this fixation about that kind of thing, so I have this impression that being first makes her happy, and in fact, she seemed to have been quite delighted.

It's kinda interesting because I can tell from her expression and gesture that she's very satisfied.

[...This is also the best one, isn't it?]

[I suppose so. Of course, the designs I made were different, so I can't simply compare them... but I personally think this is the best one I created.]

[Fumu fumu... Is that so.]

Uwahh, she looks so happy. I'm not sure if her joy isn't hidden at all or that she just didn't have any intention of hiding it, but in any case, it felt like she was brimming with happiness.

How should I say this... she looked really lovely, and seeing her expressing her joy to this extent, it makes me happy too...Somehow, I have the impression that my affection for Shiro-san is increasing.

[...Kaito-san, this is troubling.]

[Eh?]

[My hands are quite free here, you see? Isn't this a good time to reaffirm your love for me with a hug?]

[Pfft, ahaha... Even without reaffirming it, I think I have enough amounts of love in me... but well, regardless of that, I might want to have that hug.]

I couldn't help but burst out laughing at Shiro-san's request for a hug, which was just like her, but I also wanted to hug Shiro-san, so I decided to just accept her proposal.

When I took a step closer to Shiro-san and hugged her body, Shiro-san also seemed to be somewhat excited, as she put her hands behind my back.

Feeling the warmth and softness through our close contact, how should I say this... while strongly, truly strongly feeling this sense of happiness... I enjoyed embracing Shiro-san for a while.
