“I’m going to go change my clothes, Amane Onii-chan!! Mom, bring my luggage with you!”

Kazuha and her mother went upstairs to Kazuha’s room.

Saori and I in this room… a little awkward.

I didn’t do anything wrong either, but…

“Sa-Saori…?”

“What is it? Amane-kun.”

“No… I mean… are you mad at me?”

“No. I’m not angry.”

“Really?”

“Yes.”

“I see…”

Urghh, I couldn’t continue the conversation…

Usually, Saori would bring up a variety of topics, so I was never troubled…

I have to do something about this atmosphere…

I tried to think of something to talk about, but I couldn’t think of anything.

Saori was definitely sulking.

She was probably sulking when she saw me not resisting Kazuha’s hug.

Even now, when I tried to make eye contact with her, she would turn her head in the opposite direction.

If it came to this…

I went up to Saori and hugged her.

“A-Amane-kun…?”

“What is it?”

“What you say, what’s the matter with you… this… this isn’t going to make me feel any better…”

“Are? I thought you weren’t mad at me.”

“Ah… Mou~ I don’t like the mean Amane-kun…”

Saori’s true feelings come out.

“It’s kind of interesting to see Saori sulking.”

“I-I’m not sulking!! Don’t get me wrong.”

“Yes yes. Got it”

Yoshiyoshi I patted Saori’s head with one hand.

“Mou~! You’re making fun of me again! I hate you! I hate you! I hate you Amane-kun!”

Saori said these words, but she tightened her hold on me. I hugged her back even tighter.

They had no idea that Kazuha and her mother were watching him and Saori with warm eyes from upstairs.
