summer vacation - ( war and peace 3 )

[mandytl]

 

 

Location: Tropical Sandy Beach

Kaoru: ~ … ♪

Yuzuru: Everyone~! It’s almost time to have our meal, so would you be so kind as to return to the hotel?  

... excuse me. Is something the matter, Anzu-san? 

You seem afraid of something… — was there a shark?

Kaoru: Damn. Out of time, huh. We happened to be all alone for once so I thought I’d take this chance to woo Anzu-chan.

I don’t know if she’s out of it because her brain is still asleep or what, but Anzu-chan isn’t really reacting all that well… it’s like I keep missing the ball. 

Not that I’m giving up or anything. I’ve already taken my first step during this trip~. ♪

Yuzuru: Uhm, Kaoru-sama. Anzu-san doesn’t seem to be enjoying herself… 

Please abstain from frightening her far too much. One should behave like a gentleman around a lady. 

Kaoru: Ehh~? I hate acting like that. I mean, this is sort of how I do things.

Standing at the back like a goody-two shoes while the cute girls are out of your reach forever would be the absolute worst, right?

I think it would. So no matter how much they hate me, I’m gonna go all out~. ☆

Yuzuru: Sigh… more importantly, you said it was just the two of you? What do you mean by that? Didn’t Otogari-sama join you? 

Kaoru: Ah, yeah. Adonis-kun went for a dive for some reason. 

He grew up in a country where they don’t get to swim that often, so this must be fun in a rare way…. so he's like, stoked about it.

I don’t know how much air those lungs of his can hold, but he dove pretty deep after drawing in a huge breath. He hasn’t come up for a while now.

At first I thought maybe he was drowning and was so worried I was about to rescue him.  

Yuzuru: Sigh… well, I’m glad to hear he’s having a good time playing in the ocean.

But why freediving? If he’d simply told me I would’ve arranged the necessary tools we’ve prepared with which to dive.

It’s also possible for me to instruct beginners since I happen to have a diving license.

… my. Your expression tells me you’re keen on learning, Anzu-san. Fufu. Then allow me to instruct you later. ♪

Kaoru: Ah — me, me! I have a license too! 

Let’s dive together. I’ll dedicate all the treasures in the sea to you, Anzu-chan. ♪ 

They’re bound to be real beautiful; it’ll impress you for sure. I want to share everything I love with you, Anzu-chan! 

No ulterior motives here. Really, really. ♪

Yuzuru: ( Fufu. Kaoru-sama’s eyes are glittering. Is it his love of the sea? )

( … come to think, Kaoru-sama’s mother was a marine biologist. )

( The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree… I’m much the same way, having been born into a family of servants. ) 

( Rather, it’s strange that both President-sama and the young master decided to become idols despite being the sons of multi-millionaires. )

( They’re paving their own way in life, deviating from the track of fate their parents laid out… )

( Their journey may be harsh, but it’ll be precious and worthwhile. I’m a little envious. ) 

( No; I’m supporting such great people. My happiness lies in knowing I could be even the slightest assistance. )

( Although I'm new to this and therefore can't say it for sure… )

( Much like how beautiful the sea is, I know that this is an immutable truth… )
