Holding hands, Houtarou and the others made their way to a large shopping mall.
Perhaps because it was a holiday, it was, as expected, crowded.
(Holding hands was the right choice.)
Houtarou muttered to himself.
He didn’t say it out loud so as not to hurt Seika’s feelings.
(Hirugami… she’s so sensitive, after all.)
She held his hand so she wouldn’t get lost.
[It’s not because I like you]…
He could easily imagine Seika looking dejected after saying that.
(But I’m sure the misunderstanding will be cleared up right away…)
Houtarou really liked Seika’s straightforward, uncomplicated nature.
But he hesitated to say that out loud.
Because it made him feel shy.
“Hehehe~♡ I love you, Achi-kun~♡ Love, love, love~……♡”
Meanwhile, Seika was saying everything that came to mind.
“It’s so sweet of you to make sure I don’t get lost in the crowd~♡ And I’m so happy you took my request into account~♡ I love you~♡”
(Is she sensitive, or just thick-skinned?)
Seika’s heart was thoroughly stirred by every single one of Houtarou’s movements, yet she was surprisingly careless.
Does she really think he can’t hear her muttering like that?
(She probably doesn’t realize it. Right now… she must be truly overflowing with happiness.)
Seika was just too easy to read.
She was completely straightforward.
And… Houtarou actually found that very endearing.
