As I lay in bed, staring at the false sky Hikari had painted for me on my ceiling, I pondered the night's events.. I'd awkwardly flirted with an extremely attractive woman, gone all kamen rider and saved Hikari, then that little bra—Girl called the police on me! Now I had aggravated assault on my record! Whatever, at least Sakamoto-san didn't hate me...yet. I'd have to ask her sister where she works after I work tomorrow, tonight was too strenuous for everyone. I just couldn't understand...why did she stop me? To preserve my innocence? What could preserve it more than destroying a monster!? I had a hard time keeping my faith in Sakamoto-san's innocence.... I was too tired....vestiges of reality made themselves known as I slipped into sleep.
January 16, 2023
I woke up, startled that I'd slept so late, the night must have been more draining than I'd initially thought. With a dissatisfied groan I stumbled out of bed and into the bath. No time to dawdle, I hurried out and put on my work clothes--- AKA my school uniform-- and headed out.
Yet another boring day taking photographs of anything that even seemed mildly interesting. My camera captures all, the round butt's of school girls, the ample bosoms of nurses on break, the luscious Sakamoto Kaori. Wait, what? My head spun around so fast I'm sure my children will be born dizzy, I saw Sakamoto-san heading into the bank. Judging by the time I'd guess she was out of work already so I decided to snap a few more photos nearby before heading to the newspaper office and turning them in for the chump change my talent was worth.
Not half an hour later did I see Sakamoto-san heading for the cafe. Time to make a move! I shadowed her as best as I could, keeping out of her range of site every time she looked to the side. She eventually sat down and said something into the air, whatever. I strolled up to her and sat down across from her, trying my best to look hot, which was hard in my uniform with my hair only half pulled into a ponytail, maybe she'd find it endearing. A guy cold hope, right?
With all of the confidence of a ridiculously handsome seventeen year old I managed to choke out my confession to Sakamoto-san. “S...Sakamoto-san! I umm... I'm really sorry for bothering you now, but I need to tell you something!,” She looked at me like I was crazy, then she opened her mouth to speak. “Please...listen to what I have to say before you answer!,” I stopped her. I began again, “Sakamoto-san..I like you, like a lot...and I know that there's a difference in age..you have a career, I have some crap job, and to you I'm probably just another infatuated teenager....but...I wanted to ask if you'd consider going out to dinner with me? Or to a movie? What do you say?,” I gasped for breath, clutching my sides to hold myself together.
