With Kiriha's help, moving the luggage was done in a short moment. Despite having finished their work, Kiriha was still smiling next to Koutarou. They were currently sitting in the shade of one of the parasols. Koutarou was currently taking a break, having gotten tired from all his work and Kiriha was accompanying him.
“Satomi-sa~n! Kiriha-sa~n!”
That was when they could hear a voice calling out to them. When they turned to look in that direction they spotted Yurika wearing a cute pink swimsuit.
“Ugeh”
Yurika tripped and fell face first into the sand but continued cheerfully running towards Koutarou and Kiriha.
“Are you okay, Yurika?”
“I'm fine. La la la~♪”
She then opened her bag that was under one of the parasols and pulled out her luggage from within. What she had pulled out was a life jacket, a float and large diving goggles. She couldn't swim whatsoever, so she had come fully equipped. As a result, her cute swimsuit could no longer be seen.
“With these I'm safe”
“Yurika, is there even a point in swimming if you have to go that far?”
Koutarou couldn't understand Yurika's feelings for wanting to go swimming when she had to go so far. He felt like buying a life jacket was a waste of money, especially so for the poor Yurika.
“There is. The water is cold and feels great. Most of all, it's free unlike the pool”
Yurika believed that an initial investment was necessary. Since swimming in the ocean was free, she could come as many times as she pleased.
“But that was expensive, right?”
”I'll be fine since Satomi-san will be supporting me for a while”
Based on what Yurika said, one could imagine that she had used up all of her savings on that life jacket. Hearing that, Koutarou shouted in a stern voice.
“You idiot!! How many times do I have to tell you not to waste your money!?”
“So you're saying it's fine if I don't swim in the ocean?”
“Put some effort in learning how to swim!”
“That's not possible in the few days since we decided to go to the beach”
“Koutarou, Yurika is more correct than you this time... you best support her for a while”
“Ugh... I guess I have too...”
Thinking about it calmly, Koutarou also realized that Yurika was correct. It was impossible to learn how to swim in just a few days, and Yurika couldn't even get into the ocean without a float. Since that was just be far too sad, Koutarou decided that he would support Yurika for a while.
“Really!?”
”Just this once, get it?”
“Yes!”
