Can you...?
Is it normal for a girl to consult another guy other than her boyfriend about this? No. Right?
Eri went to me since she's curious about who's initiating between Akane and me but this girl... what is she expecting from me by bringing this up?
Furthermore, she mentioned she was going to ask me for a favor... Is she going to let me hold that for her to figure out if it'll hurt as well?
No. No. Let's not jump to that conclusion right away.
Futaba was the most sensible among their group of friends, she wouldn't be so lacking in common sense to do something as stupid as that. Even if her impression of me was already positive, there was no reason for her to put us both in this situation.
Unless her desperation pushed her to execute a drastic decision in order to get over the obstacle blocking her relationship from progressing, then that was more unlikely.
At the moment, I couldn't see any signs of that.
