No reason to refuse
"Mhm. I'm impressed at this great coordination by both of you. Thank you. " I said as I pulled both of Mizuki and Otoha in my embrace. And not long after that, I didn’t forget about Hitomi who was just standing nearby.
Of course, Suzuki-san was spared. I might be slapped by her if I did the same to her.
When I released them, a hint of surprise could be seen on Otoha and Mizuki’s faces. Even the usually inexpressive Mizuki was astonished.
If I had to guess, they’re expecting me to scold them or, at least, tell them that preparing this was a bit excessive.
I mean, I wouldn’t blame them for thinking like that. That was how I acted recently.
Remember the gifts that they wanted to give me? Miho, Otoha, and Mizuki would probably not bat an eye in buying me luxury items or branded fashion apparel with an excess of zeroes in their price tag – costing a lot more than the yearly allowance of an average high school student – if I allowed them to.
