The girl of my first love, whom I met again after seven years. I'm falling in love with you for the second time. - Chapter 14: Second time

Chapter 14: Second Time

There were only a few days left until I was discharged from the hospital.

I was allowed to walk around the hospital so I didn’t spend much time inside my room.

Saito-san wouldn’t be coming until the day of my discharge, and Yoichiro and the others said they were practicing, so I left my bed and went out, relieved that no one would be coming.

Of course, I consulted my father-in-law and attending physician, Toru before leaving. He gave me permission on the condition that I wouldn’t go outside the hospital and that I wouldn’t move around recklessly.

Even though I wasn’t in the hospital room, I could only stay in the common room or read a book on the bench on the roof, but it was still a nice change of pace.

It was getting close to dinner time, so I went back to my room. I wondered why the hospital dinner was served so early.

As I was eating in my room, a girl came to visit my roommate.

“Grandma, I’m here. How are you feeling?”

Hmm? Have I heard that voice somewhere before?

When I looked over, I recognized her. Yeah… to be honest, I didn’t want to see her. I’ve had conversations with her, but she still saw me crying on the roof…

Remembering the embarrassment of that moment, I pretended to be a stranger.

“Oh…”

I heard a voice. It was no good after all… I gave up.

“Well…  hello, Aizawa-san.” (Hiroto)

“Hello, Yoshizumi-san… It’s been a while.” (Haruka)

“Haruka, are you friends with Yoshizumi-kun? Come to think of it, you’re both first year high school students.” (Haruka’s grandma)

“Ah! Aizawa-san, that’s not true. We met by chance on the rooftop. I slipped on my crutches and almost fell down, but she helped me.”

“Is that so? Haruka, Yoshizumi-kun is a good boy. He’s not flirtatious like the kids today, he’s serious… he reminds me of my grandpa.”

“Grandma! Stop it! You’re in trouble, Yoshizumi-san!” (Haruka)

Do I look seem like a grandpa? But, as I had expected, she was one of Aizawa-san’s relatives. When I came into the room and saw the name tag, I thought “No way…”, but I guess I was right. By the way, unlike last time, Ms. Aizawa seems to be in good health. I guess she can speak loudly after all.

Anyways, I was relieved that I was able to cover up the fact that I was seen crying.

“I didn’t know you were in the same grade as me, Aizawa-san. We talked about a lot of things, but we didn’t talk about school, and I barely even thought about your name.” (Hiroto)

‘’Yoshizumi-san. Is your discharge from the hospital scheduled to be next week?”

“Yes, thanks to you, I’ll be discharged next week.”

“That’s earlier than my grandma. She’ll be discharged next month.” (Haruka)

“Ms. Aizawa wanted to leave the hospital. He said hospitalization was painful. (Hiroto)

“That’s right! Grandma was actually scheduled to leave the hospital a little earlier. But she couldn’t take it and moved around a lot, making her back worse!” (Haruka)

“I… don’t know what to say. That’s rough.” (Hiroto)

For some reason, I feel as if I was being stared at.

“You two seem to be close friends, aren’t you?” (Haruka’s Grandma)

“Um, no…” (Hiroto)

“Oh… Grandma… it’s different.”

Aizawa-san’s grandmother was smiling

“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Haruka talk that much, and you can talk to Haruka easily. Yoshizumi-kun doesn’t seem the same as his friends from school, you know?” 

That’s because Takuma and his friends are reliable companions when it comes to baseball, but when it comes to anything else… they are noisy and restless, especially Takuma.

After that, the three of us talked about various things until Aizawa-san left.
