Turning an Easy Situation to a Difficult One

Blocking my way and questioning me where I went or what I was up to... Should I call her unreasonable for this?

Sure, I could. But thinking about it, it’s quite reasonable for her to do this. I wasn’t supposed to be here, after all.

Behind her was the bridge connecting to the other hill. If only I didn’t run into her, things wouldn’t be this troublesome.

How should I answer her? Make up a lie or give her some excuses while only grazing upon the truth?

Unfortunately, Setsuna-nee wasn’t going to give me time to think.

As soon as she noticed me slowing down in my steps, she walked forward and approached me instead.

In less than a few seconds, we’re now standing face to face, her inquisitive gaze seemingly trying to drill a hole in my cheek. There was no one nearby, or at least, the closest to us was at a considerable distance and was walking away from the area. No one would be able to hear our conversation.

“Can I not sightsee here, Nee-san?”
