Chapter 1020: Silent Answer

To date, this should be the first time that I hugged Ishida-senpai of my own volition. The previous times that happened were all initiated by her. For example, that time in her house. Although I led her on a bit, she moved closer to me without me pulling on her. And then there’s that time in the clubroom where she ran after me and did the same thing; slipping my arms from behind me.

Although on both occasions I responded in kind, the Ishida-senpai of today instantly became a mess trying to figure out what came into me.

She squirmed a bit and tried to get away at first. However, she refused to move and she leaned back toward me almost instantly.

In this position, I could feel her heartbeat thump rapidly along with her temperature rising to a few degrees. Little by little, she’s becoming more conscious of what’s happening between us.
