An Early Morning
“Well then, senpai. Stop believing in things you didn’t hear exactly from me. I won’t lie to you. You can ask me anytime. Just like this.” This time, I put on a gratified smile as a means to comfort Izumi-senpai.
After talking about that topic for a few minutes, Izumi-senpai eventually relaxed her expression. She finally became convinced that I didn’t do whatever she heard and there was no need for her to worry.
Yeah... Even if she said that she’s just worrying about Arisa who could be pulled into my own troubles, it’s to see that she’s not being honest.
Despite her grumpy nature and the blatant hate that she’s projecting on me, it’s undeniable that she’s concerned about my well-being. Otherwise, she wouldn’t ask me right away for it and spend this much time trying to get answers.
It’s annoying to become the subject of that hate but little by little, she’s softening up on me.
“Yes, I will. Goodnight, shameless guy.”
“Mhm... May you have a good night as well, senpai.”
