It was a little after 10 am, I think. The sun was shining brightly, draining my energy and burning my skin. Under this heat that makes me want to surrender, we’re already waiting for around five minutes.
The men around us are dressed like us and they are happy too. Occasionally, women dressed in swimsuits come out of the women’s changing room and will either go to the men who are waiting for them or ignore the men who are calling out to them.
Ah, he was rejected again. The men who seem to be actively calling for women but haven’t picked anyone have finally been approached by the watchmen.
「I don’t want to be like that.」
「You have a girlfriend and you’re thinking of talking with other women? I don’t mind as long as you won’t get me involved. I guess you’re getting bored in waiting here.」
「Yeah, they’re taking their time. Couldn’t we have taken our time a little more time in the changing room? 」
「Maa, we should have. At this rate, I’m going to get a heat stroke. 」
As we were talking, familiar faces finally came out of the women’s changing room.
「You took your time. 」
「I’m sorry. It took longer than expected. 」
Wakamiya-san was wearing a pink bikini with frills while Mei was wearing a black bikini. Compared to Wakamiya-san’s bikini, Mei was less decorated with only a small ribbon in her cleavage.
「What do you think? Does it look good on me? 」
On the way to the parasol in the paid space, Mei stopped and asked me that question.
I think it suits you very well. The black bikini with very little ornament matches your blonde hair perfectly. The lack of decoration accentuates your near-perfect figure, mainly your slim waist and ample breast, which is usually hard to see in your uniform. Your hair was tied up a little higher than usual and your nape is visible which I think is simply irresistible. However, I was to say it out loud, I’ll be pushed into the side pool the next moment. And more than anything, it was too embarrassing.
「Maa, that, I mean, you look good, it suits you. I think. 」
「Is that so? Thanks. 」
「A-ahh 」
Can you stop blushing so much when you’re the one who asked? I’m getting embarrassed too.
「Both of you are getting red. Are you okay? 」
「I’m sure it’s not heatstroke. 」
「Not really. Probably heatstroke from each other. 」
When we arrived under the parasol in the paid space, the couple who were already there teased us.
「Since you have time to joke around, I assume you already inflate them? 」
「I do. It didn’t take time for me to do that. 」
Two floating rings. No one’s willing to swim hard so I prepared them for relaxation.
「Then, let’s go. 」
「It’s unusual for Amane to act on his own. 」
「It’s hot so I want to get into the pool as soon as possible. Also, I’m the only one not under the shade. 」
I’m not sure why I’m not under the shade but my luggage, Shinozaki, Wakamiya-san, and Mei are under the shade created by the parasol. I’m not sure but I feel like they don’t want me to go under the shade.
「If we let you, you’ll just stay here. 」
He’s not wrong. Let’s just keep silent about it.
「Well, since Amane wants to enjoy the pool, let’s go. 」
I grabbed a floating ring and followed Shinozaki’s lead. The other floating ring was taken by Wakamiya-san.
I left my sandals at the previous place so my feet feel hot walking. I’m walking like I was doing some kind of weird dance but the battle against heat seemed to have a temporary halt when we arrived at the flowing pool.
「Ah, relaxing 」
「It’s nice to be swept away. 」
「Right. 」
Wakamiya-san and I, who had floating rings, equipped ourselves with them and just went with the flow.
「Hey, you two, wait. 」
「Please wait. 」
The two who don’t have floating rings didn’t seem to be very good swimmers. They walked into the pool one step behind us.
「This is bad, I can’t reach the floor with my feet.」
When the pool started to get a little deeper, Mei said something like that.
This flowing pool splits into two halves, one shallow and one reasonably deep. Mei, who’s neither tall nor a good swimmer, might have a problem with the deep part.
「I’ll go get Mei. Why don’t you wait for Shinozaki?」
「Oh, you’re going to help her?」
「Don’t say that, we’re here to play.」
That’s all I said then grabbed my floating ring and ran to the other side.
I’m sorry lifeguard-san, I’ll only run now so please let me go. After that, I swam over to Mei and put the floating ring over her head.
「Thank you.」
「Ah, I don’t want to swim either so let me hold it.」
I grabbed the end of the floating ring Mei was using and relaxed my body. This is not as good as when I’m using the floating ring myself but I can let myself go with the flow without much effort so it isn’t bad. With that in mind, I moved my legs a little and caught up with the other two with Mei.
