“Both of you, keep this off-the-record, okay?”

“Wait, you’re really gonna tell them…!?”

“I don’t have a choice. If you hadn’t said that earlier, this wouldn’t have happened, you know?”

“Ugh…Hmph!”

Kuonji seemed to have given up. *sigh* This girl…

“As you can see…Kuonji and I are connected by the [Red Thread of Fate].”

“I knew it…still I’m surprised…”

Ryūgūin looked at me and Kuonji alternately, as if seeing something unusual.

I wouldn’t even tell them the color of the thread. Even if they did ask about it, I wasn’t going to answer it honestly.

I wondered…the way Ryūgūin looked at me was a little scary, but why..?

“Hee~…such miracles really do happen, don’t they?”

“I know, right? I half-jokingly thought it would be interesting if you guys were connected by the [Red Thread of Fate], but I never thought that you were really connected…”

Hey, did Ryūgūin say that it would be “interesting” just now? This girl actually had a bad personality, didn’t she?

……Well, let’s put that one aside for now.

“As I said before, I’m asking you both to keep this off-the-record. I don’t want anyone to know too much about it.”

“B-Both of you, please. This is just…”

Kuonji’s face turned red as she agreed.

Let it be known that we, who don’t get along with each other, were connected by the [Red Thread of Fate]. It will definitely be troublesome if Tatsuya and Neika also found out.

Both of them smiled at me, as if they had read our minds.

“I understand.”

“Un! We won’t tell anyone!”

*Sigh* I’m gla—

“”You mean you want us to leave you alone as a married couple, right?””

“”No, that’s not what we meant!””

◆

“Well then, we’ll leave you two youngsters here~”

“We’re going to leave now. See you both at school, okay?”

Kotono and Ryūgūin went away, leaving me and Kuonji behind.

To be honest, I don’t know what to talk about…

If it was just up to me, I would’ve left right away, but…somehow, I felt like that would be a shame.

““….”” [TLN: Awkward~]

…I really don’t know what to do about this…

When I looked at Kuonji, she had a face that showed she was just as indecisive on how to proceed as I was..

…Thinking about it, I haven’t been alone with Kuonji since that time in front of the rooftop.

Before I saw the Red Thread, we used to tussle and feel awkward when we were alone…but, for some reason, even this silent atmosphere feels comfortable now.

I see, so this is the Red Thread effect. But I can’t just sit here doing nothing and wasting time.

I also felt sorry to waste Kuonji’s time as well.

“Ah—want to go home now?”

“Eh…you’re leaving?”

UGH—W-What’s with that abandoned puppy dog look!?

Kuonji, you’re not that kind of character! Go ahead and bite like a rabid dog…!

“Haa~ If you’re not busy then…want to chat a little…?”

“W-Well, if you insist…”

No, I want to go home, but if I said that I’m afraid she would look at me like that again…

I don’t have anything to talk about with her, though…Ah, that’s right!

“Speaking of which, why were you here? Is it shopping?”

“No, Rion told me you were dating a beautiful stranger.”

“…You mean you immediately ran over here when you heard that I’m with a beautiful girl?”

“That’s right….wait no, it’s different! It’s really different! I care a little bit…but I don’t really care about who you have a relationship with!”

Do you really care or not?

But…I see. She was so angry because I was with a woman she didn’t know.

『All you have to do is look at me for the rest of your life!』

…..

Oh sh*t, I was so happy when I thought about it that I couldn’t stop grinning!

“Sanada, what’s wrong? Your face is all red.”

“Don’t worry about it. I just remembered something embarrassing.”

“Oh, all right. Speaking of which, I also had a similar experience before…”

Kuonji was happily talking, but I can’t even remember the things she’s talking about.

So she could smile like this infront of me, huh? It’s strange, but…I felt really comfortable right now.

Surprisingly, she likes to talk a lot. She never ran out of topics to talk about, and her words shot out like a machine gun.

I don’t even feel annoyed by it, and as we talked, the time was already five o’clock.

We left the shopping mall just as the sun was setting.

In the beautiful sunset, Kuonji stretches out with a goofy look of satisfaction plastered on her face.

I could see her beautiful midriff and belly button in the heat, and it was very eye-pleasing, thank you very much God! [TLN: UWOOOOOGGGH MIDRIIIFFFF!!!!] [EDN: I’m disappointed in H as well]

“Hmph, puwah~~…I’m very sorry about today. I was careless and two of them found out…”

“I’d be lying if I said I didn’t care…but I knew I had to tell them sooner or later.”

We would be going to the same school for the next three years. So It’s not something we could hide forever.

“Besides, with that bombshell statement, I think I understand what you were trying to express.”

“Eh…? Really…?”

“That’s right. After all, we are tied together by a Red Thread, you know? I can understand how you feel.”

When I said that, her face suddenly turned bright red. Probably because of the sunset…I guess?
