The day has just started
An hour later, Akane, Fuyu and I set off for school. Akane's period was close to ending, so she was feeling more energetic than usual but that still wouldn't diminish her extra clinginess. Fuyu, on the other hand, was more subdued, probably still thinking about last night.
I couldn't blame her; the thought of Futaba asking for my help was definitely something so unusual for her. She's not like Akane who could accept anyone as long as I took interest in them. In any case, what we did last night and in the bathroom was enough to lessen her worry, even if just a bit.
On the platform before we got on the train, Eimi joined us. Thankfully, our times matched this time. These past few days we couldn't catch each other because Akane and I were always going out earlier than most students. And since Eimi also couldn't rush, we'd always miss each other even though our neighborhoods were close.
