Gabriel is a little sleepy

After staring at Gabriel for a while, Ren withdrew his gaze after realizing that there was no change in her expression.

Did he feel wrong just now?

But as a person with superpowers, he couldn't make any mistakes in terms of perception.

In other words, his lips must have touched her finger earlier.

But wasn't Gabriel's reaction too strange?

Ren thought Gabriel would have an expression similar to embarrassment.

After all, he read on the Internet that actions involving lips were relatively intimate actions.

Like kissing or something.

Sure enough, not everything he saw online was true.

"Is there something on my face?"

As Ren was thinking about the matter of intimate actions, Gabriel asked casually.

"No."

After regaining consciousness, Ren answered quite seriously.

Gabriel's reaction speed was a little slower today.

Normally, she would ask when he was looking at her, but now that he had watched her for a while, she started asking.

A little weird.

Is it because Gabriel is too tired today?

"You stared at me for so long. I thought there was something on my face?"

As she spoke, Gabriel suddenly laughed and pinched Ren's cheek gently with her hand, as if to confirm something.

"I'm sorry."

Seeing her reaction, Ren thought for a moment and chose to apologize.

It was impolite to stare at someone for a long time, even if that person was Gabriel.

"Good."

Gabriel waved her hand indifferently, grabbed a large handful of popcorn, and asked him, "Do you still want to eat?"

"NO."

Ren shook his head and refused.

He is a little unaccustomed to being fed by others and prefers to eat alone whenever possible.

"Oh."

In response, Gabriel shoved all the popcorn in her hand into her mouth without saying anything else.

Placing the coke in the gap between their two chairs, which was specifically used for drinks, Ren concentrated on his cup.

"Kamikawa, coke."

After a while, Gabriel's voice came to his ears.

Turning around, Ren saw Gabriel staring at him without blinking, still taking popcorn in her hand and putting it in mouth.

"This."

Seeing her reaction, Ren took the coke and handed it to her.

But Gabriel had no intention of picking it up at all, she just stopped picking up the popcorn, opened mouth slightly, and continued to signal him with her eyes.

After hesitating for a moment, Ren seemed to understand what she meant, and applied a pipette of coke to her lips.

"Um."

Holding the straw in her mouth, Gabriel took a satisfied sip.

"It really matches," Gabriel let go of the straw and said with great satisfaction, "Kamikawa, do you want to try it?"

"Can."

Under her gaze, Ren picked up some popcorn and put it in his mouth, then took a sip of Coke.

"How?" Gabriel asked hopefully.

"Good."

In fact, according to him, there is nothing delicious about this way of eating.

However, because Gabriel felt that this was a good match, Ren couldn't show his reaction which was different from ordinary people.

Seeing him, Gabriel suddenly laughed for some reason.

After a while, the studio suddenly went dark, and the human who was originally still joking closed mouth and fell silent again.

"The movie is about to start."

Gabriel lowered his voice and said to Ren beside her.

"Um."

Ren also responded gently.

"Take it, I'm a little tired."

Gabriel stuffed the remaining half of the bucket of popcorn into Ren's arms and moved wrist casually.

Maybe it was because the environment was getting darker, but she felt increasingly sleepy.

She rubbed eyes, but that didn't make the sleepiness go away.

Forget it, wait a little longer. She will come back again after watching this movie.

Then go home and sleep well and stop playing games.

With this in mind, Gabriel encouraged herself and focused all her attention on the movie that was about to start.

Ren looked at the big screen expectantly, waiting for the movie to start.

This was his first time watching a movie in a cinema, so he was quite curious.

The name of the movie is "Love Is Not Yet", Seeing the name, Ren looked forward to it even more.

Because he doesn't understand what love is, he still wants to see what the love shown in the movie is like.

When the theme song plays, the movie officially begins.

This movie tells a very ancient love story, two people who initially loved each other but could not be together due to various reasons, and finally were able to be together after going through many difficulties.

This made Ren not feel involved at all.

Because he really didn't understand the family status mentioned in the movie.

After all, he was an omnipotent Esper.

Things like respecting family background were completely nonexistent to him.

Halfway through the movie, after realizing that he couldn't learn anything from the movie, he gave up the idea of studying, and instead looked forward to what kind of suffering would happen next.

Ren had to say that the movie was quite interesting, as it allowed him to see other people's miserable lives without using superpowers.

But when he thought the movie was actually fake, his interest waned drastically.

Compared to movies, it's more like seeing the real life of normal people which is more interesting.

After thinking for a moment, Ren continued to watch the movie carefully.

At this moment, he suddenly felt his shoulders heavy.

"Hm?"

Turning his head to look in confusion, he found that Gabriel's head was resting on his shoulder, her eyes were closed and she seemed to be asleep.

"…"

After feeling for a while, after confirming that Gabriel was really asleep and not pretending to be asleep, Ren relaxed his body a little so that Gabriel could feel more relaxed while sleeping in front of him.

At the same time, he also slowed down his movements when eating popcorn, so as not to wake Gabriel with the sound of eating.

Ren wasn't surprised that Gabriel was able to sleep, she slept very late last night, and after walking outside for a day today, it was natural that she fell asleep from exhaustion.

Moreover, Gabriel had long said that she was a little sleepy.

Taking a piece of popcorn and putting it in mouth, Ren tasted it slowly.

Sweet.

This popcorn is sweet.
