Pretending to be asleep
The night continued after Futaba’s return upstairs. I got maybe a little over twenty minutes before I heard another set of footsteps lightly treading down the stairs.
They must’ve grilled Futaba, right? Since there’s the precedent of Eri asking me for advice, it wouldn’t be hard to figure out that Futaba also went to consult with me about something. On top of that, Futaba would confess about the favor she asked me.
I imagined Akane and Eri pressing their friend for details while Fuyu watched from the side.
Anyway, I took a quick look at the direction of the stairs and found a familiar pair of thighs before gradually revealing the enchanting figure of their school’s ice flower.
Fuyu still had her hair done in a ponytail but the hair tie was lowered down her nape, giving her hair a more comfortable look.
She was hugging the pillow she brought from their house. I saw it earlier in her bag and asked her if she’d let me lie on it.
