Splitting up
“Heh. Onoda-shi. Would you turn your charm down a little bit? You’re gathering attention wherever you go.” An-rin, as jolly as she always was, approached me as we started walking out of the gathering area.
From the way she hopped towards here, there’s no doubt that she was trying to loosen up the air surrounding us. It’s a little restrained, after all.
There’s Kushii who couldn’t look straight at me. Fukuda who’s gritting his teeth, trying to endure or maybe forget how Chii only greeted him in passing before coming to my side. Ogawa who looked like he became a mute while emitting his eternal gloominess.
Naturally, Hino was as lively as An-rin. They could be considered as part of one group, after all.
As for Hana... well, her attention was solely dedicated to me.
Also, given that it’s also kind of a race, we’re all starting at the same time. Some of my girls joined us along with the other groups of girls whose intention to check me out was too obvious.
