A Reward
Upon reaching Saionji, I grabbed her hand without hesitation and moved us from that spot.
Going further into the path until we reached the same abandoned corner from yesterday.
Of course, the events that transpired there remained vivid in my head. It's a pleasant memory that will surely be remembered by the three of us for days to come; especially for Eguchi-sensei.
Using the same wooden bench, I pulled down Saionji to sit next to me. The girl didn't offer that much resistance. Nonetheless, she couldn't hide her astonishment to find a place like this here.
When she finished taking in our surroundings, she turned to face me with her lips playfully curled upwards.
"What is this place? Did you bring me here to avoid interruptions?"
"Hmm? You don't like it?"
Matching her attempt to get the upper hand, I inclined my body to her side, just enough for me to stretch my arm from her back and across her shoulder.
