Can she really do this?
Truthfully, the request I made also sounded too selfish. I asked her not to fall in love with me but at the same time, I wasn’t going to stop trying to get her on board.
That’s why Izumi-senpai was instantly riled up when she fully comprehended my request. It even got to the point of almost walking out of the room.
Well, ‘almost’ because I prevented her from leaving. I held her hand and looked straight into her eyes, silently conveying through it that I wasn’t finished yet.
Eventually, Izumi-senpai gave in and listened to the rest of what I had to say regarding that request.
Although her opinion remained the same; ridiculous and absurd, Izumi-senpai didn’t try to walk out again.
Instead, she raised a question to me.
“Is it really that uncontrollable?” Ignoring how I clasped her hand on mine, Izumi-senpai drew closer to me, held my chin, and carefully inspected my facial features.
