Turn Around

"What are you thinking about?" Emma appeared beside him out of the blue, interrupting his thought process. 

One moment, Satoshi was relishing his solitude amidst the crowd of spectators. The next moment, Emma showed up beside her, grabbing him by the hand before he could ask her what she was doing by the stalls. 

Speechless, Satoshi bowed towards Emma in greeting before he asked her. "Ah, Emma, what are you doing here?" He trailed off, averting his gaze from the pair of softness that pressed against his arm. 

Back there, he almost choked out his saliva after feeling something on his arm. While this was not the first time Emma grabbed her like that, this was definitely the first time she put her guard down and got closer to her. It was too close for comfort, but there was no way Satoshi would bring it up. After all, it would be a great blow to his pride if he was the only one conscious of it.
