Apparently, I lost my way in the forest through the mountain. Stepping aside, the place where I was, was just near of the slope but, because the trees had overgrown I hadn’t noticed where I was. Trying to get up with both my hands and feet, I was still unable to get up. Luckily, my body was fine, but I didn"t understand the meaning of this…
「Marisan Are you alright?」Sashia asked.
「…Eh, somehow」I managed to reply.
Despite being covered all over in scratches, there were no large injuries and I was not hurt. By getting injured, there was a possibility that there would be a one day delay from being able to do anything, quickly, during the time I was falling down, I had protected my head while I was unconscious and I must have acted quickly to have defended myself.
I wasn’t hurt, but having to fall down from a height of that distance made me think that I was safe enough at the moment.
「Sashia, are you sure you aren’t hurt?」I asked him.
「Yeah, I’m fine」he replied back.
Because he rolled down the same path as I did, Sashia shared the same scratches I did. Still, I worried for him especially since he was laughing, it"s because of his popularity that he could react like that.
「Sorry about that, I ended up rolling down with you」he spoke.
By all rights, I should’ve fallen down by myself, but he grabbed a hold of my arm that I had stretched out when I was unconscious. He did help… with the result being both of us being injured, but he did keep me from falling. However as he was still a kid, he has yet to become a man. While he was a sporty kid, his height didn"t help going against gravity and he didn"t have the strength to pull me up.
Though, I shouldn"t have been that heavy…
「No, I apologize, it"s due to the mistake on the map, since I was the one who had it, I"m sorry」
「Because I tried to not get us lost by looking for a path to take so we could get the flower, the fork in the path was different from the map. With that… Perhaps I made a mistake along the way」 I apologized.
Because I tried to not get us lost by looking for a path, that as much as I could, would lead us to the location to get a flower, the fork in the path was also made a legitimate path from the map. Though, I lost my train of thought as I gazed at Sashia"s pale face, but the fact that I was able to remember anything at all was quite surprising. And if I wanted to do anything about our situation, then I would have to rethink everything. At least I was good at telling when I was lost.
「Well if that’s the case, you were the one who saved me from falling, Sashisama. Truly… I am grateful」I said.
「Any way, we did end up falling down together, didn’t we?」He laughed off.
Still, keeping this mask on is trouble some, though it is much more preferable than being killed, I guess.
(TN: HAH. Death is the least of your worries, Reverse Harem is coming up soon.)
My fear still exists, meaning that I am still terrified that at any time these blue eyes will betray me and lead me to my death.
「That"s good.」I spoke cheerily
「Huh…?」He questioned.
「It seems like you’ve returned to your regular self Sashisama, your complexion looked horrible」I responded
Currently, we were going to leave the situation behind us, but only if Sashia’s mental state was alright as it appeared that we needed to wait for his anxiety and worries to disappear. If his fears were to cross over any higher will he be able to calm down afterwards or will this fear dissolve? Would the drastic measures of shock therapy be able to cure such a feeling?
Oppositely, I was relieved; Sashia was completely surprised his face expressing so. He was like an open book with how surprised he was, it was so different from his usually smiling face, it was amusing to see such a gap from his usual behavior.
「I’ll wait a little bit for the teachers to come and find me, I"ll just need to find a spot to sit while waiting for them.」
Though, it was really inevitable for us to have to stand around for what felt like eternity. For now, it was calm, but then I began to fall backwards down the slope, I wondered what type of injuries I would sustain from this, Since I had used my muscles to defend myself, they ached. Luckily, there were not only a lot of trees where we fell, but also a lot of flowers were growing, and from there it was easy to find a place more comfortable to wait at. The scratches weren’t as bad as I thought, It seems that it’s thanks to G.o.d that we were subst.i.tuted these pillows. As one would expect, that explanation is absurd, but it’s the only one I have.
