It's the third day of Akane's period and most likely this would be the last.
When I woke up this morning and saw Akane closely watching as I opened my eyes, I noticed the tinge of guilt in hers, perhaps because of how she behaved these past two days. Who knows how long she was waiting for me to wake up? However, with how close she was and with my arm hugging her tightly, she's most likely chosen to just wait for me to wake up.
When she noticed that I already woke up, Akane forced a smile as she greeted me 'good morning'.
That alone confirmed what I saw in her eyes.
Because I stayed at least two hours at Shio's place before going back last night, I found this girl sitting right before the front door covered with our blanket, snoozing softly.
She most likely woke up and when she didn't see me at her side, she hurriedly went down to look for me but because of her being tired, she dozed off again while waiting for me to arrive.
