In his room.
Sitting at his desk, Houtarou read the message from Seika and let out a sigh of relief.
“That’s a relief…”
He hadn’t wanted to go on a date without being properly prepared.
Besides, even if he went out at this hour, he’d have to come right back.
Anyway…
“…Thank you,”
With that, Houtarou sent a message to Miyuki.
They had already exchanged contact information.
He had hesitated to exchange contact information while Seika wasn’t around.
But Miyuki had been the one to suggest it.
Houtarou understood that she was acting out of consideration for Seika.
He had consulted Miyuki a little about this situation.
After receiving a brief message saying “Leave it to me,” that reply from Seika arrived.
It seemed Miyuki had taken care of everything.
“Don’t worry about it. I’m sorry Seika caused you trouble.”
Houtarou smiled and sent a reply.
“You really like Hirugami, don’t you?”
The message was marked as read, but there was no reply.
She probably wasn’t angry.
He figured she was just feeling shy.
“Please take care of Seika,”
she sent after a short pause.
That alone was more than enough for him to understand that Miyuki was acting out of concern for Seika.
“…………”
Please take care of Seika.
She probably meant as a girlfriend.
It wasn’t as big a deal as taking on the weight of another person’s entire life.
But he had absolutely no intention of treating Seika lightly.
He wanted her to be happy, and he wanted to see her smile.
He wanted to make her happy, to make her laugh.
Feelings and desires he’d never felt before were beginning to sprout within him.
Houtarou felt that he wanted to… cherish those feelings.
