Because of how Fuyu kept on avoiding me, I had no other choice but to give up on talking to the girl. Once we reached the gate, I handed her the clingy Akane and watched them disappear inside their school building.
While Akane longingly looked back at me, that girl went straight without even looking over her shoulder. She wanted to be out of my sight as soon as she could.
Really… After boldly suspecting me twice, she became like a scared mouse running away from the cat all the time. If she would continue acting like that, I would probably be forced to use that contact number she gave me a month ago.
I hadn’t touched it yet since there’s really no reason to… But if that’s the only way for her to talk to me then I shouldn’t be too reserved anymore.
Anyway, if only there was more time, I could’ve pulled her into some alley where no one could see us and let her understand that there was no need to be afraid of me or tell her that I couldn’t care less about her suspicions.
