Hisashiburi Happiness [Long Time No See, Happiness] - Yanagami Haruka

Yanagami Haruka, Chapter 2

The next morning, I left the house and walk to the station. I decided to leave early so the station maybe won’t be too packed. And yes, the station is still seemed pretty empty. I sit on the station seats, waiting for my train to come. But then my eyes catch to someone familiar. Is that Haruka? From the way he stands, it seems to be him. I stand up and go after him.

Me                               : “Hey, good morning”

Haruka                       : “Oh hey, good morning…”

Me                               : “You always come around this time?”

Haruka                       : “No, I thought it won’t be extremely crowded like yesterday if I come earlier”

Same thought huh?

Me                               : “Oh the train is here!”

We get in the train and somehow the train is totally packed… I have no idea it will be this crowded in Tokyo… There’s no seats left here and there’s barely space to stand either. I give the space as much as I can between me and Haruka. It’s not funny if someone from our school is here too and sees us standing so close. But I think it doesn’t give much space… People are standing narrowing with each other, I got pushed from all direction. Thank god I can still stand here… Haruka stands near the train’s door and he seems standing peacefully without struggling to stay still. He’s only leaning to the door there and I’m here still struggling to stay still so I won’t step on someone’s foot or something.

Haruka                       : “Hey”

Me                               : “What?”

Haruka                       : “Stand here. I’ll stand there”

Me                               : “Hm? Why?”

Haruka                       : “You can barely stand there. You will get pushed if you keep standing there”

Me                               : “But I just need to hold on this pole, right?”

Haruka                       : “I doubt you will arrive to school safely if you stand there… you’re so small”

Me                               : “Excuse me, did you just call me small?”

Haruka                       : “Whatever. I’m talking base on the fact you’re shorter than me”

Me                               : “Isn’t that how it supposed to be, a girl shorter than a boy?”

Haruka                       : “….”

Me                               : “….”

I stare at him. This is physical harassment!

Haruka                       : “Just stand there, will you? Stuborn…”

Me                               : “Fine.”

Haruka                       : “Girls so love arguing…”

He murmured about girls again! It’s clearly he doesn’t like girls at all.

After the train reached the station, we walk to school. I just realized that Haruka is tall, I really didn’t notice it. No wonder he called me short… Soon, we reached our school and walk to our class.
