Chapter 62: Chapter 62: A Rapidly Progressing Weekend"Hanabi, am I cute?" "What do you think, Hanabi?" Uesugi Sakura smiled, wanting to reach out and touch her face again, but she dodged away fearfully. Hanamaru Hanabi, wrapped in a blanket, answered weakly from the other end, "Sakura... Sakura-kun said Hanabi is silly... so Hanabi doesn’t know." After speaking, she added: "Also... don’t touch Hanabi’s nose, Sakura-kun..." "Is it uncomfortable?" Hanamaru Hanabi nodded, but she actually didn’t know what that strange feeling was, and saying it’s uncomfortable didn’t seem quite right. "It’s supposed to be uncomfortable, it’s a punishment." Uesugi Sakura said with a smile. "Punishment?" "Yes, it’s a punishment that only happens when Hanabi becomes silly." "Will Hanabi become silly again?" "Always." "..." After a moment of silent contemplation, Hanamaru Hanabi asked, "Then... will Sakura-kun become silly too?" "Always won’t." Hanamaru Hanabi looked at Uesugi Sakura’s smile and suddenly felt a bit wronged and unfair. She buried her head in the blanket wrapped around her, pondering why it turned out like this once more. The sunlight skipped past Uesugi Sakura’s shoulder, shining on her soft short hair, jumping brightly, and accentuating her rosy cheeks, so tender that they seemed like they could be easily bruised. Uesugi Sakura gazed at her face, feeling as if his heart was being tickled by soft fur. Really, really wanted to pinch it again. "Hanabi." "Mmm." "Can I pinch your face?" Hanamaru Hanabi felt Uesugi Sakura’s eager gaze, and subconsciously touched her small face. Soft, with a strange, fuzzy feeling. But this act of pinching her face reminded her. It seemed that she was woken up from her dream by some naughty person pressing on the sofa and constantly kneading her cheek. The dream was both hazy and real. The misty hands kept working, and working; she was extremely shy, but when he pinned her on the sofa, she had nowhere to curl away to, only forced to let him slowly approach, helplessly awaiting the onslaught of his ruthless hands. The overlapping feelings of fear and shyness eventually woke her up, but the first thing she saw was still that naughty person’s smile. Now, that naughty person wants to torment her face again..... "No!" "Really can’t?" Hanamaru Hanabi buried her head deeply, "Sakura-kun... has become so bad lately... always likes to bully Hanabi." Hanamaru Meiko’s voice suddenly came through the half-open door: "Hanabi~ Sakura~ you two shouldn’t take too long, if you do, the noodles will become inedible." The voice had a hint of laughter and playfulness, hard to imagine coming from a mother. But it sounded quite happy. The two of them glanced at the door crack, then turned their heads back and exchanged a look. Uesugi Sakura looked into her bright and lively eyes and smiled. Hanamaru Hanabi didn’t dare to meet his gaze, her eyes shyly sidestepping to the side, her hands still clutching the blanket wrapped around her body: "Sakura... Sakura-kun, can you go out for a while? Hanabi wants to change clothes..." "Can I watch you change clothes?" Hanamaru Hanabi paused, her big watery eyes looking at him: "Sakura-kun... wants to watch...?" "Yes." "No... no way." Uesugi Sakura decisively sat up from the bed immediately, smiling at the girl curled up in the blanket on the bed. He had never smiled so contentedly as he did today: "Alright, I’ll go out first." Soon, his smile vanished from the side of the door crack. Hanamaru Hanabi watched the tightly closed door, waiting for a while. Only when she was sure there was no sound outside, did she let down her guard and open the blanket tightly wrapping her. Click... The door suddenly opened again. Hanamaru Hanabi panicked instantly, wrapping herself into a ball again, alertly watching Uesugi Sakura peeking his head in through the door crack. "Sakura... Sakura-kun?" The expression on her face was very puzzled. "Don’t worry, I just wanted to make sure you really exist." Hanamaru Hanabi was more confused, "Sakura-kun, what are you talking about?" "Nothing," Uesugi Sakura smiled again, then said, "I’m heading downstairs, remember to be quick, or the noodles will get cold." With a loud "Bang", came a steady sound of footsteps down the stairs. He... really went downstairs... Hanamaru Hanabi thought as she looked at the tightly closed door, then opened the blanket wrapped around her and saw herself kneeling with her chubby white thighs. ... When Uesugi Sakura walked down the stairs, his heart was still brimming with a warm feeling. He suddenly discovered that teasing Hanabi turned out to be such a fun and comforting thing, and wondered how she would react if he went a step further? Imagining her shy and resistant reaction in his mind, Uesugi Sakura’s smile gradually turned into a mischievous grin. "What’s making you so happy, little Sakura? Why are you smiling?" Hanamaru Meiko suddenly appeared at the stairs, her smiling demeanor making Uesugi Sakura freeze. "Aun... Auntie." "No need to be so tense," Hanamaru Meiko smiled, as if she was a mother who caught her child doing something naughty and felt delighted, "Can you tell Auntie, how far have you and that girl Hanabi gotten?" "Last night, it seemed like you two were together quite late." "..." "Just holding hands." Uesugi Sakura said. In fact, they hadn’t even held hands much; even when they were alone on the way to school, they just walked as usual. At school, not wanting to draw too much attention, they didn’t act especially close. Thinking about it, apart from confirming their relationship, nothing typical of romantic partners had really happened. Though Uesugi Sakura wasn’t sure what those typical romantic gestures would even be. "That’s a bit slow, huh," Hanamaru Meiko tilted her head in thought, then smiled, "How about you and Hanabi get engaged first, what do you think?" "..." Uesugi Sakura was so shocked by these words he was speechless. Jumping from holding hands straight to engagement, this progression... was way too fast! Even more surprising than him having a system. "Still, maybe not, Hanabi is only fifteen..." "What are you saying, you’re only sixteen, just a few months older than Hanabi," Hanamaru Meiko waved her hand, then pulled out two red boxes from her pocket, handing them to Uesugi Sakura, "Here, I picked them out with your mother yesterday." "With my mother?" Uesugi Sakura looked at the two red small boxes in Hanamaru Meiko’s palm, stunned, his pupils constricting tightly. No way, it can’t be. They really bought them!? Unable to believe it, he didn’t take them directly but asked aloud to confirm his misguess: "Are these... little cakes for Hanabi to eat? The boxes... the boxes are a bit small, haha..." "Stop pretending." Hanamaru Meiko extended her hand again, insisting Uesugi Sakura take them, "These are your engagement rings, bought together with Nobuko, take them."
