Chapter 79 - The sudden twist during the shopping (part 4)

Zoemi was about to ask Miriette if everything was alright but the dark-haired girl acted faster – the black-haired boy's arm got hugged so tightly as if it was a lifebuoy while Miriette leaned on Zoemi's shoulder and nuzzled her face against it.

"I want to check the stall of that nice aunty, Kirissu!"

She exclaimed excitedly tugging on Zoemi's vest.

"Pfft...!"

Zoemi managed not to laugh out loud but he still snorted and looked away.

"Hey! What's so funny...!?"

Miriette frowned and glared at him, all pouty because of his reaction.

"I'm sorry, my la... Miri. You are just too adorable..."

"...!"

With that one response, all grumpiness was evaporated and the dark-haired girl froze before hurriedly looking away to hide her embarrassed face.

"Let's go... She said her stall is near the square!"

Still, Miriette wasn't going to let anything – even her own shame – get in the way of their date, so she got over it quickly and pulled Zoemi in the direction that she saw Kirissu leave.
