Why does the Ruined King still fall in love?

"It would be great if you understand. I also hope that Komachi can make a good distinction between what children can record and what they can't...I hope that I can not teach her nieces badly in the future."

"Yes, that's right..."

Tsurumi Rumi stumbled back, not knowing whether it was because of the content in the video, or because of the children that Hikiya Hachiman said would be there in the future.

Hikigaya Hachiman, who thought it was ready, stopped the broadcast, but saw Tsurumi Rumi's slightly reluctant expression, and deliberately shrugged at her.

"......Are you interested?"

"Wow, please don't say that to me with such a straight face!"

"No, I just think Liumei is quite curious, it hurts, now I know, stop hitting me on the head."

Although it was a small joke, Tsurumi Rumi seemed to take it seriously. She blushed and hit Hikigu Hachiman on the head. Tsurumi Rumi would definitely make trouble if this continued, so Hikigu Hachiman apologized frankly.

Although Rumi Tsurumi continued to tap Hikigaya Hachiman's head to dissipate her hotness, she still pouted when she slowly met Hikigaya Hachiman's gaze.

"...Hachiman, evil-hearted..."

"Sorry, forgive me, okay?"

If the joke is too much, Tsurumi Rumi may resist, so Hikigu Hachiman held the hand that was about to hit him, and smiled as gently as possible, Tsurumi Rumi pursed her lips tightly, showing dissatisfaction in her eyes .

"...Hachiman would be interested if he stood in my position?"

"No, what interest do I have in children... Well, I don't seem qualified to say this, but after all, are you admitting that you are interested?"

"I don't know! Stupid!"

Even though she realized that she said something unnecessary, Tsurumi Rumi got out of Hikigaya Hachiman's soft embrace as a retaliation, and slapped Hikigaya Hachiman's thigh.

Is it right on target?

While feeling Tsurumi Rumi's indescribable shyness, Hikigaya Hachiman was happy for her to show interest.

He couldn't help laughing, and in order to calm Tsurumi Rumi down, he decided to go to the kitchen to make a drink.

As long as Tsurumi Rumi keeps a little distance from Hikigaya Hachiman, she will calm down.Hikigaya Hachiman took a while to prepare the sweet drink Tsurumi Rumi liked, and when he returned to the living room, Tsurumi Rumi turned his gaze to him.

"Okay cheer up. This is my handmade iced cocoa."

"...If you think you can use things to make me feel better, you're wrong..."

"Don't want it?"

"Hmm! Yes, yes...really..."

Facing Tsurumi Rumi, who was about to accept it frankly, Hikigaya Hachiman carefully handed it to her with a smile that did not show it as much as possible.

Dissolving the rather thick cocoa paste with milk in a pot and cooling it with ice, the cocoa that took a little effort is one of Tsurumi Rumi's favorite drinks.

After making it, it is very troublesome to deal with the pot, so I don’t want to do it very much, but when I accidentally make Rumi Tsurumi feel bad, after Hikigu Hachiman makes a cup for Rumi Tsurumi, she will take it and become able to listen Enter Hiki Valley Hachiman's words.

After Hikigaya Hachiman asked "Is the taste okay?", Tsurumi Rumi took a sip and tasted it for confirmation, and the slightly reproachful eyes eased.

"...It's delicious."

"that would be great."

"Are you trying to trick me with something delicious?"

"... nothing."

Tsurumi Rumi glanced at Hikigaya Hachiman with a wry smile, and stood up with a mug containing cocoa in her hand.

Because he was worried about offending Tsurumi Rumi on the way back to the living room, Hikigu Hachiman broke into a little cold sweat, but the cold sweat stopped when Tsurumi Rumi sat down.

Instead, it seemed like something else was sweating.

"...Miss Rumi?"

"...the skin is cold because of the air conditioner."

Tsurumi Rumi, who was sitting on Hikigaya Hachiman's lap, looked up at Hikigaya Hachiman with a mischievous smile.

Hikiya Hachiman felt relieved and hesitant, and sighed deeply.

"What do you want the little one to do?"

"It's fine if Yawata likes it, but if you do something too weird, you should know what will happen to Koko, right?"

Although Rumi Tsurumi likes to be touched by him, Hikiya Hachiman understands that this time there is an intention of revenge.

"Staying in the United States seems to take some time?"

"Yes, yes."

"I don't do anything."

"That's good."

It was a tough tactic to hold himself hostage, but it was useless for Hikiya Hachiman.

Anyway, although Hikigaya Hachiman had no intention of doing anything at first, but because Tsurumi Rumi had specially instructed him in advance, he also opened his hands with a smile in order to promote his harmlessness, and put on a posture of doing nothing.

"The wind coming from the gap is cold, isn't it?"

"Tsurumi Rumi, you are a bit willful."

"Do you hate the wayward me?"

"How could it be? It's completely fine to say more willful words."

Because Tsurumi Rumi has always restrained herself, as a boyfriend, Hikigu Hachiman still hopes that she will act more like a baby.

If it is something that can be realized by Hikiya Hachiman, then I will achieve anything. If Tsurumi Rumi can smile happily, I can postpone my own affairs.

But Rumi Tsurumi also thinks the same way. She often wants to act like a baby, so in order to control the dominance of acting like a baby, there will often be simple offensive and defensive battles... Today, Rumi Tsurumi seems to be directly Began to act like a baby.

Tsurumi Rumi, who appointed Hikigaya Hachiman to wrap herself up, showed a relaxed expression while drinking iced cocoa leisurely.

"...So, Hachiman didn't do his part."

"I don't really want to drink water, and I just need to watch Tsurumi Rumi drink to get full."

As long as Hikigu Hachiman sees Tsurumi Rumi slowly drinking cocoa deliciously, Hikiya Hachiman feels that he is so full that he doesn't need to eat any more.

"It's almost lunch time but I feel full, what's going on?"

"Maybe it's spiritually satisfying?"

"Then there's no need for lunch."

"Eh?!"

Hikigaya Hachiman slightly exerted his arms around Tsurumi Rumi's body, asserting that this is different from that.

He smiled at Tsurumi Rumi's strange cry in his arms.

"Cooking is really fast! Besides, Hachiman, you can already cook normally, right?"

"But... I want to eat the food cooked in the United States. If it is not for the food in the United States, I will not be satisfied. Although I feel that it is not good to spend the time in the United States."

Hikigaya Hachiman was talking like a child.

Of course, it doesn't mean that other things are not delicious, but if there is no Tsurumi Rumi's dishes, I can't be satisfied.

After all, Yukino and the others are not around now, only Tsurumi Rumi can cook well.

"What a hopeless person..."

"I have the self-consciousness that my stomach has been grabbed by Rumi-chan?"

"It's okay to just say that you can't live without me?"

"It has become like this."

Although Hikigaya Hachiman can maintain his life alone, it is better to be accompanied by a girl who can take care of him.

Just repeating the daily life without color flatly, isn't living the same as dying?

Although I can be regarded as someone who has died several times.

"Well, even Hachiman has a place like this..."

"Where is it?"

"Nothing. Then I'll go cook."

Tsurumi Rumi, who drank the remaining half of the cocoa in one gulp, stood up, slightly regretting that the warmth and softness in Hikigu Hachiman's arms had disappeared, and looked up at Tsurumi Rumi.

"Don't you need to drink slowly?"

"Who do you think made it impossible for me to drink slowly... because, because I finished drinking, I went to cook! After all, it is already noon!"

Tsurumi Rumi said "Look" and pointed to Chung.

Hikigu Hachiman took a look, and it was indeed past noon.

"It is indeed noon. Ah, do you want my help?"

"I don't need it today!"

As if it was an excuse to escape, although Hikiya Hachiman wanted to point this out, because Tsurumi Rumi immediately fled to the kitchen, so he didn't ask anything, just thanked Tsurumi Rumi for cooking.

After lunch, Hikigaya Hachiman unknowingly disappeared when Tsurumi Rumi was washing the dishes.

Although they were not together often, they were not there when they noticed, so Hikigu Hachiman speculated that something was wrong, or he was not feeling well.

Regarding the awkwardness, although Hikigu Hachiman felt that it was completely over after the meal, the possibility is not necessarily zero.

Let's check it out later, shall we?

Hikigu Hachiman thought so, and then stopped the water, just in time to hear footsteps coming down the stairs.

Looking back at the footsteps that were lighter than his own, Hikigu Hachiman froze.

Hikigaya Hachiman thought it was great not to be holding a plate.If you hold it, it will probably be sucked into the sink.

"Well, since it's a rare date at home, I think it's better to dress up carefully?"

Rumi Tsurumi, who wanted to hide her shyness, wore an off-the-shoulder dress.

Tsurumi Rumi, who usually doesn't show much, at most just wearing a sleeveless jacket, is now exposed from the neck to the shoulders and even the chain bones.

The skin that would not normally be exposed to the sun is now being exposed to the sun without hesitation. Although the air outside is covered by dark clouds and the air as a whole is heavy, but only Tsurumi Rumi's side is light and dazzling.

Because the sleeves themselves are three-quarter sleeves, from the perspective of comprehensive exposure, there will be more sleeveless, but being able to see places that are usually invisible, on the contrary, highlights the freshness.

"How is it, does it fit?"

"It's for you. It's for you."

Although he couldn't help but forget to praise, but Tsurumi Rumi's speaking eyes made Hikigaya Hachiman come back to his senses and express his feelings.

Although Hikigaya Hachiman is very suitable, he never expected Tsurumi Rumi to appear in front of him in this outfit.

Although she didn't show much, she was a bit shy, but she didn't lose her beauty. Is this because of Tsurumi Rumi's atmosphere and appearance?

"Um...thank you..."

"Could it be more specific to praise? Because Rumi Tsurumi's skin is beautiful, it will look particularly dazzling. Rumi Tsurumi's body is very gorgeous, and wearing clothes that highlight her body curves looks very good. And this The style of this dress makes you look taller than usual, and the design is very refreshing, which further highlights Tsurumi Rumi's adult demeanor."

Hikigaya Hachiman's literary quality is very high, and he wants to praise a girl for her ease, but that would be too boring.

Therefore, Hikigu Hachiman's choice is not to use appropriate language to praise Tsurumi Rumi. Although it is not appropriate, it is because of sincerity.

But Hikigaya Hachiman and Tsurumi Rumi shook their heads in panic when they praised her outfit.

"I, I know enough, do you want me to be shy?"

"I didn't say that I said that because I was ashamed to see you being praised?"

It's not a compliment, but a sincere compliment to Tsurumi Rumi, and this is a compliment similar to self-satisfaction than Kiguya Hachiman, so it's not what I want Tsurumi Rumi to do.

'If you don't express the feelings that arise in your heart in words, your chest will swell. '

Yuigahama Yui, the love-brained idiot, once said that to herself.

"Thanks. But, but, but enough, I'm full..."

"Is it because you just finished eating?"

"This, is this a refutation of what I said just now..."

"what are you saying?"

Although the rebuttal to Tsurumi Rumi was intentional, Hikigaya Hachiman's praise of Tsurumi Rumi was serious.
