◆Hiyori◆

“Suspicious…”

“Hmm?”

“Erh? Ah! Sorry it’s nothing…A-Anyways, let’s eat lunch!”

Mi-tan tilted her head curiously, but Hiyori somehow avoided the topic and bit onto my sandwich.

But still, my mind was full of thoughts about those two.

I had been watching the two of them for a while now, and from what I saw.

The look on Rira-tan’s eyes when she was with Sana-tan was more passionate, and Sana-tan’s attitude toward Rira-tan seems to be softening somehow…

Obviously, the way they treated each other and their attitude was different than before. I guess I should say that the distance between them was getting closer? That was how I felt.

But, what was the reason????

I looked back to when I first noticed a change in their behavior.

Eh…? Wait, no…That was impossible right? Ahaha, there was no way…

Cold sweat ran down my back.

Hiyori thought it was crazy imagining that hypothesis. [TLN: She likes to refer to herself in third person.]

Haha. How was that even possible? Was it because those two were like that? Rira-tan loves Sana- tan, but he seems to be having a hard time with her…and such two people—

—Were connected by the [Red Thread of Fate]…?

◆Akito◆

After training, which was my daily routine after school, I went to my room tonight.

I was now sitting upright on my bed.

In front of me was a smartphone that I always use, and the opened screen had text displayed that says, [Riran]. Of course, it was still blank.

Everything was fine when I exchanged addresses with Kuonji. But what should I send…?

“‘Good evening,’…no, that’s not right.‘Nice to meet you,’ maybe? That won’t work; it’s not our first time meeting each other…『What kind of panties are you wearing right now?』Absolutely not. That’s just plain perverted…”

*Sigh* I’m getting nervous now…

I’m in trouble……Neika and Kotono aside, I don’t know how to DM women, especially someone like Kuonji.

I wouldn’t be this nervous if it was another girl, but…I guess it was because of that Fate thing after all.

The time had already passed around eight o’clock in the evening.

If I delayed this any further, I’m sure it was going to be a nuisance so…All right, here I go!

[Akito: Good evening.]

[Akito: (Sticker of a dog saying hello).]

Phew. First, a jab to see how it goes.

Then, I got a reply right away with a beep.

[Riran: Yappo☆!]

[Riran: Akito, you’re so cute☆ but let’s take it easy☆.]

Who’s this girl?

[Akito: I’m sorry, I must have made a mistake.]

[Riran: Soyrr Santa! Taht was Oene-chan! That wsa Onee-chan, gto it!?]

Older sister? So that means Kuonji was the second daughter?

Also, this girl was in too much of a hurry that she was making a lot of typos. So cut—

“Ugh…!!!”

Why the heck am I saying she was ‘cute’ as if it was natural!!?

D*mn it, I’m going crazy!

[Akito: I see. Sounds like a very cheerful older sister.]

[Riran: Well, she’s always helping me out. Even now…]

[Akito: What were you doing?]

…Huh? Why did she leave it on read?

*Pikon* Oh, nevermind.

[Riran: Studying! I’ve asked her to help me study! My sister goes to Teito University.]

[Akito: Teito, huh? That’s the best university in Japan, right? That’s amazing…]

I’m studying hard too, but I couldn’t imagine going to Teito University.

I wonder if she was a disciplined and neat person. After all, she was Kuonji’s relative.

…Probably not, from the way she messaged, she might seem a rough type of person.

[Riran: By the way, about Saturday…]

[Akito: Oh, we’re going out, right? Where do you want to go?]

[Riran: Is there anywhere you want to go, Sanada?]

Anywhere I want to go, huh?

I went to a shopping mall with Kotono, and to the arcade with Ryuya and Neika. To be honest, I don’t have anything in particular that I want to go to right now.

So, movies or aquariums…? No, it’s not like we were going on a date.

[Akito: Nothing in particular. How about you, Kuonji?]

She left it on read, again.

She was probably thinking where she wanted to go.

After five minutes of waiting, she finally responded. Finally, a reply came back.

[Riran: There are too many places to choose from…]

So cute…Kuonji’s cuteness has been outstanding recently that it was getting bad for me…

…Wait no, Kuonji herself hadn’t changed. What changed was the way I looked at her.

Knowing that we were connected by the [Red Thread of fate]. I was not irritated or annoyed by how she expressed her words, In fact I’m loving it. Man, I’m so simple…

*Pikon* Oh I got a reply.

『Riran: I personally think a love hotel would be nice.』

『Riran: Wouldn’t it be nice to get to know each other?』

…Love…Love hotel? Love hot—

HUH!!?!?!?!?!?
