Fiery Competition?

Think about it. Shio and Eguchi-sensei mutually agreed to bring me somewhere where I could comfort them. Given that they didn’t even discuss it extensively when I was out there with them, they already had that kind of talk way before I showed up.

It’s already within their plan, I guess?

Nevertheless, even if Eguchi-sensei somehow deviated from their original plan and brought me here, Shio correctly guessing where we should be was a certainty.

Where else would she look, right? We couldn’t be at any other places aside from Eguchi-sensei’s cabin. And that’s why Shio arriving at this moment, cutting short of our supposed alone time was quite normal.

Having both of our attention taken away by that knock, Eguchi-sensei and I communicated silently before staring at the door. We’re still in the same daring position. If Shio opened that door, she’d see us right away, albeit not on full display.
