Naruomi: “Ah……”
I was surprised to see Naruomi standing outside when I was getting off work.
Hisora: “……”
Naruomi: “……”
What is Naruomi doing here? Dressed like that, too…… There was a question mark circling around my head.
Naruomi opened his eyes wide with surprise. He probably wasn’t expecting for my coworkers to be there as well.
Senior: “Do you know him, Hisora?”
The seniors asked me as they looked back and forth between us, perhaps because we stared at each other without saying anything.
As long as I don’t say anything, they won’t find out about our relationship. I panicked and my mind went blank.
That’s why……
Hisora: “……I don’t.”
Naruomi: “……”
As soon as those words left my mouth, Naruomi averted his gaze awkwardly, and walked away.
While I wondered whether to chase after him, Naruomi got in a taxi and left.
Sorry, Naruomi. I didn’t know what to say……
Senior: “Did he get the wrong guy?……Well, who cares.”
My seniors started walking and I followed after them. But in my heart, I began to feel a sense of guilt for what I had just done to Naruomi.
