Kuro and I are currently on a plane to Hawaii to fulfill her sudden wish
to go there.
Incidentally, we're flying first-class. I may be a commoner, but Kuro
could be considered as a King from another world, so I wanted to make
sure she had access to the best facilities.
Well, but even so… First-class is very expensive. If I hadn't gotten a lot
of money from Eden-san, I wouldn't have considered riding the first-class flight.
Tipping my glass of champagne, slightly feeling like a pompous, second generation young master, I looked at Kuro, who was sitting next to me.
Kuro is looking at a book with a serious expression on her face… she's
currently holding a Japanese-English dictionary, and there are some
English Conversation books by her side.
[…Alright, I've memorized it!]
[Eh? That was fast! You just started reading it a while ago, didn't you?]
[Unnn, well, I'll have to actually use them in a conversation to make
sure that I got the pronunciation right but… I've memorized everything
in these books.]
Kuro learned to speak English… in about 10 minutes… Seriously, her
specs are just to cheaty.
Even though I was dumbfounded, well, I guess I got too used to it that I
think that something like that is possible because it's Kuro.
Putting away her book, Kuro took out a baby castella and started eating
as if it was the most natural thing.
[Unnn! Eating baby castella in a luxurious place, it feels very
extravagant!]
[…That's wrong… Totally wrong.]
[…I put some caviar in it, so it's a high-class baby castella…]
[Stop, please don't desecrate the world's third greatest delicacy…]
Wryly smiling at Kuro who's acting like usual, I drank my champagne.
[Speaking of which, in the end, what is it that made you want to go to
Hawaii?]
[U- Unnn… Secret! Just look forward to it!]
[…Fumu.]
It seems like she wasn't going to tell me why she decided to go to
Hawaii.
If she wouldn't tell me, I wouldn't know what it is that Kuro wants…
isn't the case at all. I've known Kuro for a long time already, so I had a
vague idea as to what she was up to.
I glanced down at the thing in my hand… the magazine that Kuro had
been reading when she said she wanted to go to Hawaii. If I'm right, this
is probably the page she was looking at earlier.
I'll be extremely embarrassed if I guessed wrong… but if I'm right, I'll be
giving her a a counter-surprise.
Arriving at Honolulu, we walked out of the airport without
encountering any unforeseen problems. Feeling a little sleepy, perhaps
due to the jetlag, I felt like the sun was shining so brightly at me while
we walked down the street until we took a bus to our destination.
There are a lot of Japanese-speaking shopkeepers in Hawaii, so it's easy
for Japanese people to get around, but in my case, Translation Magic
translates my thoughts for me, so I don't have to worry about speaking
Japanese like usual.
It was still a bit early for dinner, so we decided to check in a hotel first.
We checked into the "Hilton Hawaiian Village", a beachfront hotel with 7
hotels set up and a shopping mall on its premises.
I had read on the internet that it was recommended to stay here if you
are a tourist, so I took it as a reference and checked the place out, but it
really seemed to have a wide range of stores in their facility.
There was still some time before dinner, so Kuro and I decided to go
swimming at Waikiki Beach.
[Kaito-kun! Let's swim!]
Wearing a light blue swimsuit paired with a thin pareo, Kuro pulled my
hand as we headed towards the beach.
The Hilton Hawaiian Village has a private beach adjacent to it, which
makes it very convenient to head there from the facility's pool.
[Yeah, but before we go into the sea, we should stretch our body first…]
[Teiii!]
[Bfuuhh!? K- Kuro!?]
[Ahaha, you let down your guard, or something like that!]
As I was about to stretch out, seawater was splashed into my face…
She's the one who started it… Fine. If Kuro wants a battle, a battle it
shall be…
[Take this!]
[You're naive!]
[Ah, wait, that's too big… Bfuuhhh!?]
As a counterattack, I also tried to splash water at Kuro, but
unfortunately, our fighting power was too different, My splash was
swallowed by Kuro's surf attack, pushing the water back to my face.
Gununu, a frontal battle against her is too ineffective. Kuro would have
time to react after she sees my attack… If that's the case…
[Arehh!? E- Eden-san!? Why are you here!?]
[Eh? No way!]
[Found an opening!]
[Kyaaaahhh!?]
Seeing Kuro quickly turn around when she heard my words, I splashed
water on her. Fuhaha, everything's fair in splash battles. One needs to
use anything at his disposal to…
[Kai~ to~ kuuuuuun… Now you've done it~~!]
[Wha!? Kuro, wait, calm down… That's not even a splash anymore…]
Well, of course, it should be obvious… that doing such a thing would
result in a severe counterattack…
Just like that, our first day in Hawaii went by with both of us having a
great time.
We planned to go to the place where Kuro's main goal will be tomorrow.
My guess is that Kuro will make her move there… Fufufu, I hope I can
surprise her well…
