Civilized Talk

Before leaving Yukari’s house, I thanked her parents for the warm welcome. I intended to come back for another visit. That's why it’s a lot better to give them a better impression of me.

Yukari sent me to their gates and I waited until she returned inside before walking away.

On my way out of their street, I pulled out my phone to check my messages. But my fingers stopped tapping halfway. I heard rushing footsteps behind me.

There was no one in front of me. Which meant it was either someone running out of the street or someone chasing after me.

Given that I just watched Yukari enter their house and we made sure that I didn’t forget anything before leaving, it’s definitely not her.

Is it that guy? Possible.

I acted like I failed to notice it and continued on my steps, albeit slowed down a bit.

Five steps later, sensing that whoever was running was about to crash onto me, I quickly dodged to the side.
