Adachi looked at the package I’d given her, eyes darting. Was she really that surprised by a gift? I thought back and couldn’t remember giving her many presents. There was the boomerang, which was just embarrassing; some chocolates for Valentine’s Day, for which she always had to prod me in advance; and... and...
Maybe it wasn’t weird that she’d been thrown off.
Knowing her, she wanted to know why but was too tongue-tied to ask, so I explained. “Since it’s a new year, I decided to try to be a better girlfriend.”
She turned red. “You’re—you’re the best girlfriend.”
No, I wasn’t. Even I knew that. Girlfriends were gushy and gooey. They fawned over each other. I didn’t do any of that. Adachi at least tried, but she got wrapped up in herself and froze, just like she was now.
“You can open it,” I said. I figured she needed a little push.
“Okay,” she said, and carefully began peeling off the tape I’d used.
“Just tear it off and don’t save the paper.” I imagined her carefully folding it up and putting it in a binder. I didn’t want that.
In response, she carefully tore the paper, trying to do as little damage as possible.
I gave up.
When she was done, she held up the present, her eyes wide. “A onesie?” she asked.
“Yashiro’s #flannels are so soft, I thought you would like one.”
“Do you like sharks?” she asked, looking at it.
“Not especially; OKEA didn’t have rabbits, so I asked Nagafuji if I should buy this one.”
I was an idiot! She was the one who suggested the boomerang. But of course, it had been easier to take her advice than to think about what Adachi would like. See what I mean about not being a good girlfriend? A good girlfriend wouldn’t need to ask.
“Should I wear it?” she asked, still sounding befuddled.
“Of course. That is, if you like it. Do you like it?”
There was only one answer she would give, so no surprise she said yes.
“Then let’s have a sleepover so I can see you in it.” Nagafuji had suggested that, too. Sometimes even idiots can have good ideas.
Adachi melted down on the spot, saying, “Sleepover, Shimamura,” over and over.
I took that as a yes.
