　We didn't want to stay in the doorway all the time, so we moved to the living room and sat next to each other on the sofa, but as if our earlier conversation had been a lie, we both fell silent.

　However, it's not unreasonable.
　I've been able to get my feelings across to Amari, and as a result, we've passed the point of being lovers and have become husband and wife.

　I really think I was just rushing into it with my own momentum.
　But I don't regret it.
　It's a fact that I love Amari enough to want to marry her, and she accepted it.

　So you're probably wondering why it's getting awkward now, but it's just my lack of previous relationship experience that's holding me back.
　And moreover, the first time you fall in love with someone and become a wife is a beautiful woman you rarely see on TV, Tenashi.
　It's more absurd to tell me not to be nervous.

''Hey, Kazu-san........''
Oh, yeah.

　He was called out by Amanashi, who also looked nervous but broke the silence, stammering but urging him to go ahead.

''Well, as you may know, I've never had a romantic experience before.''
It's like, well I'm in the same boat, so it's a win-win situation, right?
'Eh, ah, yes, it was...'
....
....

　....high end of conversation.
　What's this?
　This is the conversation between a man and a woman who are married?
　I feel like we just embarrassed each other.

　It's bad........I don't even know how to talk about it......

　I'm breaking out in a cold sweat inside because I feel like I'm about to let our hard-earned relationship fall apart, when Amanashi next to me started to chuckle.

''Amanashi?''
'Oh, I'm sorry I'm kind of going crazy with all this new stuff...'
'No, I'm sorry I didn't tell you that a man should have led, and I think you'd be more relaxed if you laughed at me like that.
I can't...

　I uttered my honest opinion, but Amari turned away, her face reddening.
　That reaction is teasing and makes me smile irresistibly.

''Well, how big is Tenri's finger?''


　I ask a question for the ring, but apparently I need to measure it later.
　As it was, from the topic of hands, Amari came over to meet my palms.

　It's hard to believe that she does housework every day, but her hands are very soft, perhaps because they have been carefully cared for.
　It's not just the size of a joint, it's the overall size of a joint.
　If I wanted to, I could almost wrap my hand around Amari's hand with one hand.

　That's where a nasty feeling suddenly arose.
　Almost impulsively, I grasped the hands that were stacked on top of each other.

　I put my fingers between their fingers, the so-called 'lover's connection'.
　With the closer contact, the warmth of Amanashi's hand is very evident.

''Hey, Kaz-san!
What do you mean?　We're going to be husband and wife, right?
'Yeah, well this is a bit embarrassing...'

　Amanashi's face turns red at the sudden action and he starts to panic.
　I'm embarrassed inwardly, too, but I feign composure with the willpower of a man.

I'm not sure. Well, let's just take it slow, as we are both inexperienced. ...we're going to be a married couple, you know.
Yes.

　It's a very green line, even if I say so myself, but Amuri gave me a soft smile.

　It's kind of.......nice, this kind of thing.
　That's right, there's no need to rush into anything.
　We have plenty of time to support each other as a couple....as a family, so we have plenty of time.

　It's not just my life anymore.
　For the sake of Amanashi and Amana-chan, I can't do something as reckless as living in a car anymore....

　As I was thinking with great emotion, I noticed that Amari seemed to be trying to say something, but not being able to do so.
　I wonder what's wrong?

Amanashi?
What, what is it?
No, you sounded like you wanted to say something, so I asked you about it...
Oh, no, it's nothing, okay?

　I was curious and asked her, but she flipped her red face down and was distracted.
　Ummm........this shouldn't be.

''Hiding things, is it?''
'No, no, not like that, I'm just embarrassed!
Embarrassed?　What?
It's about what we're going to call it from now on...

　When I nodded my head, unable to read his intentions, Amari slowly replied while averting her gaze as if she was too nervous.
　I see, it's because they're going to be a married couple that they're going to change the way they're called.

''Is that the 'honey' and 'darling' you sometimes see called each other?'''
Would you like to call each other...?
No, I'm not going to do something stupid like that...
''Wow, I also want to refrain from showing off like that in public, so it's a little comforting to hear you say that...''

　Around the breath of relief that comes from the heart, I guess that thing looks stupid....
　It seems like a sign of affection for the other person, but I don't want to be like a single person picking a fight with someone who is single.
　Besides...........

You don't have to force yourself to change your name, and you'll be fine because you'll be able to tell how you feel.
''Well yes. We're fine with our way of doing things, aren't we?
Oh ... what were you going to call it, by the way?
'What?　You're going to ask after all!
So if that's not what you just said, I wonder what it was all about?

　I don't need to change what I call her, but I'm curious what she was going to call me.
　It seems that she was caught off guard that she wouldn't be pursued, and Amari's face turns red and she starts to get upset.

'You're not going to change it anyway, so why don't you just call me once?'
'Ugh ... wow, don't laugh at me, please?
She's not laughing.
...Really?
It's true. I'm just trying to have fun with what my wife is going to call me.
Yo, wives are so impatient, they haven't even registered their marriages yet...

　Oh, I had to get that ready as well as the ring.
　

　Right now, let's listen to what Tenashi calls me.
　There's still some embarrassment left, but she gazes at me with a gaze.......

''Ah──''
Huh?
You're....
....

　.........

　...........

　

　You say I'm cheating and unfair, but so is Tenashi, right?
　What's that, that's really foul........


''.......... I'm terribly embarrassed too.

　The result was a form of mutual agony.
　Yes, the usual is enough without being weird.

　That's what I realized.
