Chapter 83: The Day of the Date (Night)
It was currently 7 pm. Since the sun had already set, the lights coming from the Christmas trees illuminated the street in its stead. Beneath those lights, Umi and I were walking toward the station platform at a quicker pace than normal.
“Hah~ That was fun~ I’m tired now from singing that much… Adding extra time was a little overkill, huh?”
“Yeah… My body feels heavy… I wanna go home… I miss my bed already…”
“Same.”
We were supposed to finish at 6 pm, but two hours of singing weren’t enough for us so we extended our time for a full hour. But that turned out to be a mistake. After a half an hour, we defaulted to singing some relaxing nursery rhyme because we were too exhausted.
Also, Umi asked permission from Sora-san to come home a little later, but in return…
‘Wouldn’t it be nice if you were to take her home?’
I had to escort Umi back home, so my reunion with my beloved bed would have to be postponed.
“Maki, your voice is actually really good, what were you so shy about? Your voice was clear and your pitch was perfect.”
