A Trip to the Library

Although my coming in late somehow turned into a comical relief for all of us, only Ishida-senpai remained scowling at me. Obviously, she’s not amused by my act.

Perhaps if only the two of us were present here, I would be reprimanded more.

In any case, because of my oblivious act, the scowling senior eventually gave up after staring at me for a good while. Whatever she was thinking when she was doing that, I had no idea.

She did release a helpless sigh though. And seeing that, I felt slightly bad.

She’s not expecting an apology. That’s for sure. That’s why I got stumped on what I can do to brighten up her mood.

Coming to my rescue was the trio on the other side of the table. Kana, Rae and Otsuka-senpai paused on what they were doing as they all whispered among each other.

Once they were done, I felt Otsuka-senpai’s sock-covered toes touching my leg. She’s the one sitting across from me, after all. They opted to give their help stealthily.
