"…Is that so?" Persia murmured. "Sorry, but unfortunately, that's not happening."
"…Oh?" I inadvertently murmured. "You have someone in mind?"
"It's a hunch, actually…" Persia murmured.
"Eh… So who could this lucky person be?"
"It's you," Persia said to me.
"Sheesh. Do you really have to go through such a roundabout way to give me some confidence…?"
"Ehehe, I was found out~?"
GROWL~~~
Suddenly, the sound of a stomach rumbling could be heard.
Persia's face immediately pops red as she panics to cover her stomach with her purse.
"I-I'm busy this morning... so I haven't eaten yet…" Persia pouted.
"Pfft… you are so cute when you make that sound." I laughed petulantly.
"I-It's not like I wanted it to happen…!"
Persia's cheeks flushed even redder from the embarrassment, and she eventually hit me repeatedly with her harmless and gentle fists. It made me continue to laugh until when she managed to calm down.
