Upon being put under the menacing gazes of not only Nami but Satsuki as well, Saki tried to come up with an excuse before looking at me.
Looking at her stuttering, the girl was extremely nervous. Perhaps she’s thinking that we would be found out immediately.
“She’s right. I ran into her when I returned to the classroom to get my PE uniform.”
That was the truth anyway but upon hearing it, the somewhat suspicious look of the two girls lingered in their eyes.
Nonetheless, Satsuki and Nami still dropped their menacing eyes and interrogative atmosphere after I answered, giving the chance-taker girl a sense of relief.
Little did she know that the two would most likely ask me about it in private.
With our whole class around, it would gather more attention to us and it would risk our relationship being exposed. Understanding that complication, Nami and Satsuki were of the same mind about keeping everything about us in secret.
