Was that jealousy I heard? I had no idea. Thinking about it, it’s closer to her reaction when finding out about my closeness to the other girls. While it was bereft of suspicion and disappointment, I could probably attribute that to the change that happened in our relationship – even if we wrote off that particular moment.
Finding out that I am acquainted with Michiru just after all that definitely came as more than a surprise to her. She did talk about her and her days with the girl in their club and yet, I never mentioned that I know Michiru.
In my defense, I didn’t feel obligated to do so. Furthermore, it was unimportant when I didn’t even plan to show myself in front of that girl. It just so happened that she chased after Fuyu.
And with that callout, I was left with a choice of whether to reveal my connection with her or act like a stranger. I chose the latter because I thought she would eventually recognize me given how close I’ve gotten with her back then.
