บท 733: I Won’t Refuse to Hold Hands with You
"Hah... now I've redeemed your regret for not being able to accompany me to the fireworks show."
Putting away her phone, Nino said contentedly.
"Sorry, I couldn't accompany you to the fireworks show." Ren apologized again for this matter.
"As I said, you don't need to apologize. You didn't do anything wrong."
Nino didn't want him to keep feeling guilty about this.
"Um."
After walking in silence for a while, Nino said, "Naoki, you still owe me a gift. You haven't forgotten about this, have you?"
"NO."
This gift had been promised to him long ago when he pledged to Nino that as long as she studied diligently, he would give her a gift.
Because Ren really didn't know what gift to give Nino.
Nino nodded satisfactorily, then continued, "Now it's time for you to give your gift."
"Have you decided what you want me to do?"
"No, I want you to think about it yourself." Nino said seriously, "Whether you want to give me a physical gift or anything else, it's okay, as long as you make it yourself."
Recently, she had been bullied by her sisters.
It could be said that it was bullying, actually it was just watching Yotsuba and Itsuki receive gifts from Ren, and then endlessly talking about it.
It hurt her a lot, so she made this request to Naoki (Ren).
It's not like she didn't have anyone to give her gifts.
No need to envy her sisters.
"Alright."
Facing her request, Ren agreed.
This way, there was one more person on gift list.
"How far is the dessert shop?"
Since Nino had just taken the initiative to find a topic, Ren hesitantly found a topic.
His current identity was Naoki, not Ren.
"There's still a distance to go."
Because the place they agreed to meet wasn't close to house, it would definitely take a long time to get there.
And spending a lot of time on the road was the effect Nino wanted to achieve by deliberately choosing a relatively distant place to meet.
Why?
Of course, it was for...
After secretly glancing at him, she found that he seemed to be looking at the store signboards on both sides of the street, so Nino quietly moved closer to him, narrowing the distance between the two of them.
Ren naturally noticed her small movements, but didn't pay too much attention to them.
Because he was trying hard to think of a topic for them to chat about.
Compared to that, Ren still felt what Nino was thinking about at the moment was more important.
"Hm?"
At this moment, he suddenly felt a soft touch on the back of his right hand.
He didn't need to think at all to know that this was Nino's action.
Without consciously avoiding it and interrupting his thoughts, Ren turned and looked at Nino.
Before he could speak, Nino quickly turned to the side, not giving him a chance to look at her.
Seeing her reluctance to speak to him, Ren had no choice but to give up asking what she wanted to do when she touched his hand earlier.
But not long after, he felt his right hand being touched by Nino again.
Turning his head again, Nino still tilted her head to the side like before.
"Is there something you want to say to me?"
This time Ren didn't give up, but asked directly.
"No, nothing happened." Nino said while holding back her embarrassment.
Originally, she wanted to hold hands with him naturally.
What made her think was that she only touched his hand lightly, and before she could grab it, he reacted and avoided it, causing her two attempts to fail.
(Is a magician's hand really that sensitive?)
Nino couldn't help but complain in her heart.
She thought Naoki's reaction would be quick, but she didn't expect it to be so quick.
She couldn't even catch it.
No, this time it will definitely work.
After gathering her emotions and making sure he wasn't looking at her, Nino reached out her hand again and grabbed Ren's hand.
The difference between this time and the previous two times was that she had already grabbed his hand even before touching it.
"Do you... want to hold hands with me?"
While holding his left hand, Ren asked hesitantly.
He had just focused his attention, and just as Nino was about to move like before, she was caught by him.
After three consecutive actions, he might understand what Nino wanted to do.
"No, no, I just accidentally bumped into you."
Feeling a slight chill coming from his palm, Nino explained with a somewhat red face.
"Moreover, we're very close. Isn't it normal for our hands to accidentally touch while walking?"
"It seems I misunderstood. I apologize."
After thinking about it carefully, Ren felt her explanation made sense, so he planned to let go of her hand.
But as soon as he let go, Nino grabbed his hand backhand and clasped his fingers tightly.
"Hah? This?"
Ren looked at their two hands, not knowing what to say.
Nino's actions were very different from what she said earlier.
"Why are you so surprised?" Nino said confidently, "Didn't you hold my hand first earlier?"
"If you really want to, it's you who wants to hold hands with me, okay?"
"I'm just fulfilling your wish."
"...Not like this."
It's true that Ren had just reached out his hand first, but his intention was only to make sure if she wanted to hold hands with him.
"In fact, you held my hand first." Nino said with a smile, "Don't try to explain."
"I just thought..."
Before Ren could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Nino.
"In that case, do you want to let go of me?"
Raising her hand with tightly clasped fingers, Nino asked back.
"I guess not."
He didn't mind holding hands with Nino.
"And I didn't have that idea." Nino said slowly, "What you just said is true, I just want to hold hands with you."
"Then why don't you admit it now?"
This was something Ren didn't quite understand.
"I'm worried you'll say no."
Looking straight into his eyes, Nino said word by word.
Staring into her blue eyes, Ren said softly, "I won't refuse to hold hands with you."
"With your answer, I feel relieved."
Hearing his answer, Nino smiled happily.
