Having caught sight of Sachi, the first that came to my mind was... ‘Why is she there?’. Of course, the answer wouldn't be magically created if I didn’t probe her for it.
So, as sneakily as possible, I made my way to the girl.
On the other hand, Sachi remained stuck where she was, ducking behind the bushes. Her eyes remained focused on me but instead of her initial surprise, it was replaced by anticipation.
This girl... is she getting excited at this moment?
“Your activity hasn’t ended yet. What are you doing here?”
Upon reaching her, I squatted down, leveling my head with hers. I glanced to our left and right before taking a look at the trail she made that would lead directly to their camp.
“I can say the same to you, Onoda-kun.” She impishly replied, her lips stretching to a grin. “Are you going to sneak in again?”
“... No. I’m just watching.”
“That’s a lie.” Sachi shook her head, determining my answer like that without any confirmation.
