‘This probably counts as a direct and polite rejection,’ Seiji thought to himself as Kaede Juumonji left his room.

She didn’t formally confess to him, but she admitted her feelings, while he rejected her with sincerity… The result was okay like this, wasn’t it?

Seiji felt like he had made the right choice by responding truthfully to her feelings.

Kaede’s future actions were up to her.

If she gave up, then that was that. If she didn’t give up… since she had just been rejected, she probably wouldn’t do anything immediately. Even if she continued living in the apartment building, her actions probably wouldn’t be too proactive… probably.

If Kaede wasn’t proactive, then Mika would be calmer, and she wouldn’t explode or anything. This way everyone could get along… at least for the time being.

‘Forget it, I shouldn’t think about it anymore.’ Seiji sat down in his chair; now all this was over, he thought that he could finally rest.
