Orange Tinted Lies (15)

 SANO

"Unn, you know San. I have to ask-"

"Ask what?" Sano said briefly, stopping.

Sumire's cheeks colour. "I wanted to ask, the other day when I was in your office. I saw-something that looked like a present."

"Oh, you found it?"

"Um, is it for me after all?"

Sano nodded. "I wanted to find a better time to give it to you, but since you found it already. What do you think?"

"It is pretty, but uh-"

"It's just a necklace Sumire, I didn't get you a ring. I could have."

Even though she already took the old ring back. He could easily get her something better.

There is actually another gift, but that one is in his house. 'I don't know if she is willing to come over there.'

"R-right, I suppose so." Sumire said nervously.

"Do you not like it? Did you not take it?"

"Oh, I did but something that precious-"

So she liked it? That's good.
