Update on the Case

Because I was concerned over her current mental state, I waited until Satsuki fell asleep before ending the call.

It didn’t take too long anyway. Crying made the girl sleepy and with her mind gradually easing up after our talk as well as her tiredness from the practice in their club, even if she tried fighting the drowsiness, her eyes involuntarily closed without her notice. At the very least, she still managed to utter goodnight to me along with a relieved smile.

Even though her weird urge hadn’t been resolved yet, being aware of its origin, even if it’s just mere speculation on my part, allowed her some respite.

Whether my advice would work or not, that’s up to how she’s going to execute it.

But still, Satsuki being kind to Sakuma? The whole class would definitely fly into shock.

It’s already the fifth night since I brought Nao home. She only had two more nights left before her return.
