(A/N: The chapter posting messed up again. This should be the beginning of the previous chapter.)

"It's quite complicated but sensei can take it as Yuika-senpai having an issue with her self-esteem."

"Self-esteem? I don't think so. She's afraid to be seen, right? Was there something she didn't want the other to see or notice?"

This... Was she always this sharp? But I guess given the clue, it was also not that hard to come to this conclusion.

"Something like that." That's all I could answer as I didn't want to fully divulge the details of the situation without her express permission.

"I'll talk to her myself and decide afterward." Eventually, Orimura-sensei spoke up, her voice firm yet gentle. She knew the importance of handling such matters with care. "Now, if that's all you need, I have some preparations to do."

After saying that, she tried standing up but with my hold on her waist, she failed.
