Strictly speaking.
She was the pretty girl Natsuhiko had been waiting for.
Golden hair, light blue eyes, a small star hanging around her neck, a smile and excitement on her face, and white teeth faintly visible between her thin lips.
He knew the girl in front of him.
That's right.
It was Miyazono Kaori.
Right now, she was wearing the same school uniform as him.
Smiling and calling him "senior."
Maybe she thought her question was too direct.
She bowed politely, glanced quickly to the side, and then turned her gaze back in an instant.
Probably because she was nervous, her cheeks were slightly flushed.
"I'm Miyazono Kaori from Class 2 of the first year, my hobby is playing the violin, and I just joined the Light Music Club. Because your guitar playing was so good, senior, I couldn't help but talk to you. I'm really sorry!"
"Ah, Kaori, that's a nice name. I'm Natsuhiko from Class 1 of the first year. I'm not your senior, I'm in the same grade as you!"
Natsuhiko smiled.
And corrected her mistake.
"Ah, I thought someone so amazing must be a senior in the school. I didn't expect you to be in the same grade as me. I'm really sorry, Natsu-kun!"
Natsuhiko waved his hand to show it was nothing.
It was clear that Miyazono Kaori felt a little regretful.
"As for the name of this song, it's called 'godknows'. If you want the lyrics, I can send you a copy."
"Ah, really?"
Obviously.
Miyazono Kaori showed an unusually happy expression.
"This should be a new song that hasn't been released yet, right?"
Anyway, Satoru Kosaki and Aki Hata probably wouldn't care too much about the copyright in this world, so Natsuhiko naturally took the honor for himself.
"That's right!"
"Thank you so much!"
Miyazono Kaori bowed again in thanks.
Then she quickly took out her phone and exchanged contact information with him.
Natsuhiko thought for a moment.
Then wrote down the complete lyrics.
After receiving the lyrics Natsuhiko sent.
Miyazono Kaori immediately began to read them word by word, and the melody that had just echoed in the music room unfolded again in her mind. The more she read, the more she felt the flavor of the song.
"This is really, really a song that makes you feel shocked."
Her shoulders trembled slightly.
"This is a divine song!"
The lyrics deeply touched her heart. She didn't expect to see such a heart-warming song at this time.
It was like a ray of light in her dark road.
"Natsu-kun, can I change it to a violin version?"
"It's fine, change it however you want. Besides, a song like this will only give off its value when it's given to someone who appreciates it."
Miyazono Kaori.
Although some things had changed in this world, it was clear that the potentially fatal illness hadn't been taken away by God by the way.
Natsuhiko sighed inwardly.
However.
Looking at her complexion.
The worst result shouldn't have happened yet.
She was truly a girl who made your heart ache.
"Will Natsu-kun join the Light Music Club?"
"Your guitar sounds very energetic. I already thought it sounded so good outside the music room. You must be a genius!"
"I'm not a genius. The only person who can be called a musical genius now is 'Fujiwara Chika'."
When it came to being a genius.
Natsuhiko still wanted to be modest.
"Fujiwara Chika, is that the Fujiwara Chika who is known as a 'musical genius'?"
"Ah, it's nostalgic. I was there when Fujiwara-san won the award. Her smooth technique was really pleasing to the eye. But, I haven't heard any news about her since then!"
"Oh, she's always been at Shuchiin Academy."
"That school with unimaginable deviation values?"
"Yeah."
"I haven't seen Fujiwara-san since then."
"Her family is quite strict!"
"Ah, today is my lucky day. Not only did I get to hear such a great song from Natsu-kun, but I also learned about my idol's news!"
Natsuhiko didn't expect Miyazono Kaori to have such a connection with Fujiwara Chika.
"If you want to see her, I can convey your wish."
"Huh, really? Please do!"
Looking at Miyazono Kaori's expression, Natsuhiko secretly found it funny.
"Okay, it's settled then. But, you have to think about how you're going to repay my kindness."
Natsuhiko looked at the time.
It was about time to go to the coffee shop and meet Kaguya and Chika.
"That club?"
"I probably won't join the Light Music Club, but if you have any performances, I can come and support you. I can't join that kind of club that requires me to perform."
Hearing Natsuhiko's words that he wouldn't join.
Miyazono Kaori's eyes dimmed.
But when he said he could come and see their performance, her expression returned to being bright again.
"Natsu-san, can we be friends?"
For some reason.
Miyazono Kaori said those words without even thinking.
She shouldn't have such extravagant hopes. Friends were just an unattainable dream for her, and to say such things to someone she had just met was simply too bold, like a confession...
Her heart began to beat uncontrollably.
Then she heard words that she couldn't even imagine.
Natsuhiko-san, who was in the same grade as her and could write divine songs, smiled slightly, like warm sunlight.
"Sure, of course we can. It would be even better if it was a confession. I'm in a state of asking for a relationship, basically everyone knows. You can go check it out, I'm kind of a celebrity, Kaori."
After saying those words, he floated away like a breeze.
Even now, Miyazono Kaori was still in a dreamlike state.
Joining the Light Music Club, and meeting the first amazing man she wanted to be friends with.
And a confession... was he saying he wanted a relationship like lovers?
Celebrity?
She had just heard that word from the students around her.
With an inquisitive heart.
Miyazono Kaori opened the school forum.
Without even searching.
She saw the top post.
The bright red label on it said: An analysis of the possibility of freshman heartthrob Natsuhiko's "harem route" succeeding!!!
The second one was still about him.
The third one was still about him.
Miyazono Kaori curiously clicked on the post and began to read.
...
On the other side.
Natsuhiko, who had arrived at his destination by train, rushed to the coffee shop.
He saw Kaguya and Chika sitting in the same seats as yesterday at a glance.
"The bill payer has arrived!"
"Hmph!"
That's right.
He was the poor man who had come to pay the bill!
