Title: You Can Hold My Hand

“There was then a water gun shootout. No need to say much about it; the combination of Gabriel and Fumino beat us.”

Itsuki finished her story, drank all the water in glass in one gulp, and leaned weakly against the sofa’s backrest.

It was a challenge for her to recount such a long conversation accurately, and it had taken a lot of energy.

“Thank you very much.”

Ichika expressed her formal thanks and looked at Yotsuba: “Now let Yotsuba talk about your surfing experience.”

“Huh? Do I have to say something too?”

Yotsuba seemed unprepared.

“After all, your beloved sister didn’t get to experience the joys of the water park because she was asleep. She can only understand it through your story.” Ichika said in a deliberately pitiful tone. “Could it be that Yotsuba is unwilling to fulfill Onee-san’s little wish?”

“I understand, I’ll do my best to recount it, but it might not be as good as Itsuki’s quick retelling.”

“It’s fine as long as you’re willing to say it.” Ichika’s request was very low.

“I remember that time…”

As a result, Yotsuba entered a state of recollection.

“Is this the surfing pool? It looks amazing.”

Seeing the continuous waves of water, Vigne exclaimed.

The overall shape of this surfing pool was like the character “乁”. Water flowed from the lowest point in the bottom right corner to the highest platform, creating waves.

The closer you got to the lowest point, the greater the impact of the water flow.

A female staff member wearing a life jacket nearby simply introduced, “If you’re interested, you can try it.”

“I want to play!”

Satania raised her hand and shouted excitedly.

“Satania, can you surf? If not, don’t do it.” Raphiel asked with a smile.

“Mhm...”

Satania fell silent.

The staff member smiled and replied, “It’s okay, I can teach you, so don’t worry about not knowing how to surf.”

“No, I don’t need to learn something as simple as surfing.” Satania refused decisively, with a very arrogant attitude.

“Sorry to trouble you.”

Vigne ignored Satania’s nonsense and asked the staff to kindly assist.

“This is my responsibility.” The staff responded quickly.

Yotsuba held Itsuki’s arm and said excitedly, “Let’s go and try it too; it’s surfing.”

“It will be difficult.”

Miku glanced at the staff member who went to get the surfboards and said anxiously.

“Surfing isn’t something ordinary people can just learn.” Itsuki had similar concerns.

Asumi persuaded, “That’s true, but it’s not easy to do it once, and you should try it. After all, it doesn’t matter if you can’t learn it.”

“Right, it doesn’t matter if you try.” Fumino agreed.

Rizu whispered, “It’s worth the challenge.”

“Kamikawa-kun, you want to... huh? Where is Kamikawa-kun?”

Itsuki turned to ask Ren’s opinion, but when she looked back, she found he had suddenly disappeared.

Gabriel had noticed Ren’s movements and pointed to the eye-catching figure running enthusiastically to the surfing pool with Satania: “He went over there.”

“Then let’s hurry!”

After saying this, Yotsuba ran happily.

Seeing this, the others followed.

Since it was a surfing pool, the water was quite shallow, reaching almost to the ankles.

“The floor here is so soft.”

After taking a few steps in the surfing pool, Yotsuba noticed something different from before.

Raphiel holding a surfboard, approached and handed it to her: “It’s mainly for safety reasons. After all, you easily fall when learning to surf.”

“I see.” Yotsuba took the surfboard, “Thank you.”

Raphiel pointed to Ren, who was attentively listening to the staff’s explanation over there, and kindly reminded, “You can go there and learn with Kamikawa.”

“Aren’t you going to play?”

Seeing Raphiel seemingly doing nothing, Yotsuba asked.

Raphiel casually explained, “To be honest, I’m not interested in surfing. You can go play.”

“You really won’t try it?” Yotsuba urged.

“No, I just want to watch you guys play.” Raphiel still refused.

Gabriel came over and guessed, “Are you scared of this?”

“What do you think?”

Raphiel asked with a smile.

“Let’s say I didn’t say anything.”

After leaving such words, Gabriel left and went to find Fumino for warmth.

“Ren-san, did you learn it so quickly?”

As soon as Yotsuba arrived, she saw Ren successfully standing on the surfboard, rushing under the influence of the waves.

“Not yet.”

Ren fell off the surfboard the next second after answering this question.

“Sorry, I didn’t mean it.”

Yotsuba looked at Ren, who was climbing the slope again, and quickly apologized to him.

If he hadn’t been distracted by answering her question, he might not have fallen.

“It’s okay.”

Ren shook his head, looked at the surfboard in her hand, and then asked, “Do you want to play?”

“Yes, but I don’t know how to do it yet.” Yotsuba glanced at the staff who went to teach Vigne, “I can play after I learn it.”

“Let me teach you.”

Ren placed the surfboard in her hand.

Yotsuba cautiously confirmed, “Huh? Is it okay?”

“Of course, but I’ve just learned how to play while standing. I don’t know how to play while kneeling or lying down.”

“That’s fine.” Yotsuba said happily.

“Um.”

After receiving this answer, Ren began his teaching.

“Stand on the surfboard first…”

The impact of the water flow on the upper platform was not too great, but even so, it was not easy to stand on the surfboard.

“You can hold my hand to maintain balance. As a beginner, you don’t have to reach that point.”

Noticing that Yotsuba was trying to maintain stability through body balance, Ren extended both hands towards her.

“I-I understand.”

Seeing Ren standing in front of her and his hands so close to her, Yotsuba hesitated for a moment but eventually chose to hold on.
