Intervention

“Take care, you two. See you next time.” I waved at the two girls while sporting a rather refreshing smile on my lips before they walked towards the train door to get off.

Umi reluctantly did the same while Sumire remained stuck staring at me. Her mind was still wandering somewhere. She’s definitely still processing my answer to her question. Either she found it unbelievable or incomprehensible.

Instead of giving a straight answer to her question, I told her that the story within the song we were just listening to was about Asahi and me.

That’s the reason why she’s having a hard time processing it. If I told the same thing to a normal fan or, if I take her friend, Umi, as an example, the girl would definitely not believe that absurdity right away.
