“Etto, can I try those on?”

“Of course, here you go.”

Then, Aoi tried the watches on one after another.
To be honest, they all looked cute and matched Aoi when Aoi wore them.
But, Aoi looked the most pleased with the second one.
It was a square watch with light blue dials.
Yup, it really felt like it suited Aoi the most.

“Rin-kun, is it really okay for you to buy it for me?”

“Of course, it is.”

“Then, I’ll take this, please.”

Are? What Aoi handed over wasn’t the second watch but the first watch she tried on.
Of course, this wasn’t bad either, but no matter how I looked at it, it was clear that she liked the second watch the most.

“Are you really okay with this?”

“Yes, naturally.
Thank you.”

Aoi thanked me with a big smile that seemed like a blossoming flower.
However, Aoi looked so happy when she tried on the second watch, and it weighed on my mind that I looked at the second watch again.
Needless to say, it was different from the first watch in both shape and color.
But, there was one more thing I noticed.
I looked at the third watch as well… Alright, there should be no mistake.
Most likely, the clerk casually arranged three items with different prices so that we could carefully choose the item within our budget.
The first watch was 6,000 yen, the second watch was 32,000 yen, and the third watch was 15,000 yen.
The second watch was the most expensive among the three.
Perhaps, Aoi decided on the first watch after seeing the prices.
Aoi must have chosen the cheapest one instead of the second watch so as not to burden me with the price.

“Umm, that, Aoi.
Although it looks good on you, I think this one suits you better.”

“Eh?”

“Since this is a rare chance, try putting this watch on once more.”

“But……”

“No buts, okay?”

After asking the clerk for permission, I had Aoi wear the watch again.

“Yup, as expected, I think this is the best.”

“No, but……”

“This is my selfish request, but I think this looks good on you the most.
So, could you accept this watch as my present for you?”

“…………I understand.
Thank you.”

“Then, we’ll take this, please.”

While I was paying the money at the counter, it was then –

“It was splendidly done.
That casualness was fantastic.
No mistake, she definitely liked this watch the most.”

– the clerk whispered those words to me.
I’m glad that it wasn’t just my misunderstanding.
Then I handed over the watch to Aoi, and –

“I’ll cherish it for the rest of my life.
I’m glad that Rin-kun chose it for me.
Thank you very much.”

– wearing an angelic smile on her face, Aoi thanked me with those words.
Even though I didn’t buy it to get thanked… Anyway, I am glad that she looks so delighted.
Since I successfully accomplished my purpose in coming here, I decided to return home after buying a cake.
But, Aoi was pulling my hand for some reason, even on the way home.
I didn’t have any leeway to think about anything when I came because various things had happened.
But, thinking about it carefully, I’ve been holding hands with Aoi since I left school.
Having realized that, I suddenly became embarrassed, and my whole body became hot.
Thanks to that, I ended up sweating even though it was winter.
Consequently, I was worried about my palm sweat.
Once again, I was assaulted by a sense of embarrassment that was different from before.
Having arrived at my room, I waited for a while.
Then, Aoi who finished changing her clothes came over to my room and started preparing dinner.
So, I decided to wait while watching TV, but all TV channels were showing Christmas-related content.
Because I had Aoi this year, I didn’t feel anything particular when I looked at it.
However, it must be really salty to watch it alone.
Considering that there are so many TV stations out there, isn’t it okay to broadcast some TV programs that can be enjoyed alone at a time like this for more variations?
It is likely that more than half of the world’s population are those who don’t have a partner to spend Christmas together with.
So, wouldn’t it be better to broadcast non-Christmas related programs to get more viewerships?
If some historical dramas or gourmet programs were broadcasted at this kind of time, more people would be able to enjoy them with peace in their minds.

While I was thinking about such things and watching a variety show full of Christmas vibes, Aoi brought me the food.

“Oohh……!”

Surprisingly, a wholly roasted chicken was brought to the table.
Although I’d seen this on TV, this was my first time seeing it in real life.
I think this isn’t turkey but chicken.
But, how did she roast it to become like this in my kitchen?
Moreover, there were also vegetable garnishes, corn soup, and bread.
The Christmas dishes that I’ve never seen before were lined up before my eyes.

“Amazing…… Aoi, are you sure you didn’t overdo it?”

“That’s not true.
Since this is the Christmas dinner with Rin-kun, I should at least prepare this much.
Though I used to have turkey at home, turkey wasn’t sold at the nearby supermarket.
So, I used chicken instead.”

I haven’t eaten turkey before.
Or rather, I’ve never eaten any wholly roasted fowl meat.
Putting that aside, to think that Aoi used to eat turkey at home, is she perhaps rich?
I was reluctant to ask about other people’s families, so I still haven’t asked about hers as well.
But, since this is a good opportunity, I might try asking her.
