Cherry Magic! Thirty Years of Virginity Can Make You a Wizard?! 04

In this book, Adachi and Kurosawa go on their first date... it doesn't go too well. Adachi is so preoccupied with how strangers perceive them that he doesn't enjoy himself. He pushes Kuro away, which is sad. Honestly, it's a good thing Kuro is persistent because Adachi is really hurtful when he pushes Kuro away. If someone like Adachi treated me that way, my self-esteem wouldn't let me recover. I would feel way too hurt to be constantly rejected. I understand that Adachi is awkward, but he still needs to do better. It's lucky for him that Kurosawa is patient.

Kuro on the other hand, wants their first date to be memorable (since it's Adach's first date ever) that he doesn't consider how Adachi might feel going on a helicopter ride (not his thing!).

Of course, Adachi enjoys seeing poor Kuro fail (he's kinda mean, isn't he?) since Kuro comes off as perfect. But, at least Adachi decides to plan their next date so that he is more involved in the relationship. It goes better. Plus, he finally talks to Kurosawa and explains what he needs - time to adjust to being a couple.

If Adachi talked more and listened to Kuro's thoughts less, it would help their relationship. That being said, Adachi is starting to question whether or not to tell Kuro the truth, that he can read his mind. He feels guilty. I wonder if he will tell him in the next volume.
