Picking up Nami
As I held Shizu in my arms until she calmed down, the time continued to pass with no words being exchanged between us again.
When it's time to go, I wiped the tears off her face first before turning to the door.
This time, I wasn't expecting anything anymore.
Giving her one last look, I left the Student Council Room in silence.
After what happened, perhaps something already changed about our relationship.
Most likely, on my next duty this Friday, I won't be able to be as close to her again. No, even if I still can, I have to put some distance between us. As much as I want to make her mine, I have to respect her decision and knowing that girl, she will surely not bring up that proposition I rejected again.
We have to step back and focus on just the important things as well as the reason why I started coming to that room in the first place.
When I arrived at the side door of the Gymnasium, Satsuki was already there, waiting for me.
