Why become like this?
“Yee! That looks good! Yes yes! Ah, I want her to have a sexier feeling here! look to the side, please look to the side!”
That's not good, I don't understand at all. I was supposed to come to this shopping mall to buy clothes and daily necessities, but before I knew it. I was in an awkward situation that had to be a model. What's more, I didn't do the photo shoot alone, but also with a very beautiful woman.
“Yuuya-kun! Your expression is too stiff! Smile smile!"
It's not good even if you say that!
I knew my expression was getting stiffer, I thought about what I should do, and there was a female model who was going to do a photo shoot with me this time Miwa-san smiled at me.
“Yuuya-san's chat. Everyone is also nervous like that for the first time, so you don't have to worry about that.”
“O-oke.”
I took a deep breath once and looked at my appearance again.
Right now I have changed from a simple white shirt and black pants to a white shirt and wore a thin black short-sleeved cardigan on it, and burgundy skinny pants. All of these are clothes I have never worn before, and I am more nervous about these dresses myself than the photo shoot.
I suddenly realized that there were many people around me. I thought they were customers who came to this shopping center, but now they saw the scene of my shooting and Miwa-san from a distance. Some people point their smartphones here, so they seem to be taking photos as well.
"remarkable. It's the first time I've seen Miwa-chan live.”
“Yes it's Miwa-chan, but who's the boy who did the photo shoot together with her!? Doesn't he have a very good style!?
“Isn't she a model? He is with Miwa-chan, and most importantly, he is very handsome and stylish.”.
"No way!? In that case, let's find out about him when the magazine was released!”
Yup, As I expected, I would stand out if I did a photo shoot in a big shopping mall like this.
"Well, please put your hands together for a second."
“Eh?”
The photographer said that when I was distracted by the surrounding gazes. But, what does that have to do with.. arms? Err, do I have to stand up straight while folding my hands?
As I was in a hurry with the sudden order, Miwa-san gently hooked her left arm with my right arm.
“Uee!”
“Yuuya-san? What's wrong?"
"Eh, no, t-no!"
No, no, it's not just nothing, right!? Is this what he meant by connecting arms? I definitely thought that I just needed to fold my hand at that point. I never had a chance to get close to a woman, so I became much more uptight than before.
N-no, I'm doing a photo shoot right now. I had to regain my mind as usual somehow…
This shoot seemed to be for couples, so naturally, it was impossible for me to make such a move. I can't be so panicked right now! To begin with, I can't even imagine such a move! But I am calmer than before. Given so far, it's good he hasn't noticed. No. Shit, he realized it.
"God. Yuuya-kun, your expression is much stiffer than before.”
“Iii-is that?! Iii-that's normal, you know!?
"Yes. I mean, you're a little unusual.”
Hikari-san smiled bitterly…
How else, you know! Because.. chest... ch.. Miwa-san chest…!
“Yuuya-san?”
"It hit me!"
“Eh?”
“Ah, i-it's okay! Yep!"
Did Miwa-san not notice it?! I thought so and glanced at him, but he just made an expression like a professional who was doing a photo shoot right now. It is not a matter of being noticed or not. Seeing Miwa-san's serious yet natural expression, I became much calmer. Let's put it aside. I have to concentrate on this shoot now.
After taking my mind off, Hikari-san also gave instructions for various other poses.
“Ya, then Miwa-chan, please hug the neck of Yuuya.”
“Fueee!”
"Yes!"
(the fat MC used to be a kurusan:v) and (Miwa-san)
Although I was surprised again, Miwa-san wrapped her hands around my neck without hesitation. That's not good. Unlike the arm before, I can feel many things all over my body right now! Even though I had averted my mind, eventually my expression and body became much stiffer than just a moment ago. Then I tried to calm down while doing another pose, but I was still stiff, so I had to take a break.
“ Sighs ..”
“Thank you very much for your work.”
“Ah, you too, thank you very much.”
“Can I sit next to you?”
"Ah yes! It's okay!"
Miwa-san spoke to me as she sat on the bench in this shopping mall and took a breath. When Miwa-san sat down next to me, I said what I was honestly thinking.
“Miwa-san, that's amazing.”
“Eh?”
Miwa-san was surprised to hear my sudden compliment.
“I've never worn clothes like this before. and instead, I live a life that never thinks of fashion. So, when I look at models in magazines, I never think of anything in particular. I have just experienced it in a short time today and I am starting to understand how difficult it is.”
“That's because.. You're just not used to it! Initially, I just failed, and often scolded.”
“Although so, I think it was difficult for me. I don't think it's going to require expression either, not just poses. ”
“Ahahahaha... Hikari-san is famous for her special focus on facial expressions in the modeling industry.”
Hikari-san is a muscular man wearing that flashy shirt, and he is also a photographer. He doesn't look like that at all.
“ Huh .. But I don't know how to do it.”
While doing the photo shoot, I was reminded of my helplessness when I saw Miwa-san who was not that old, being able to play an active role so far. I think it also changed my mentality little by little, but the journey is still long. Apparently, she seemed to see my agitated expression, and she kindly told me;
“Yuuya-san's chat. You don't have to rush. Just take it slowly. More confident! And I also thought that I had fun today because I could do a photo shoot with Yuuya-san like this. so I would be happy if you also thought so.”.
"Well…"
“Of course, it's not just about shooting, it's about enjoying everything, isn't it?”
“... Enjoy... yes?”
Until now, I couldn't afford to have fun. I was desperate to live, and it was painful and unbearable every day. But now it's different. After I found the door that connects to the other world, I…
“I... Can I enjoy it?”
"Yes, of course!"
When I turned to Miwa-san, she gave me a gentle smile, I noticed that it was a natural smile.
“Closerrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
I heard a strange sound from a distance, but I don't know what it was.
