Chapter 208: Accidentally Holding Hands
(The question is very difficult)
After a painful struggle, Fumino reluctantly put down pen.
Obviously, her ability was not enough to solve all these questions alone.
After flexing her wrist, she turned her gaze to Ren, who lowered his head to answer the question.
Seeing him easily solve questions one after another without even using scratch paper, Fumino felt quite envious even though she had seen him many times.
Honestly, if she was asked to do liberal prose questions, she would be like Ren now, and she would be able to answer the questions perfectly without wasting a lot of time.
But if it was a math question, she could actually calculate it bit by bit.
(Kamikawa-san is truly a genius)
After staring at him for a while, Fumino sighed inwardly.
She could be said to be a genius in the liberal arts, but she was a waste in the sciences, which took a long time to learn.
And Ren is just an all-round genius, capable of everything from science to liberal arts.
Many times, she thought about how great it would be if she had Ren or Rizu's talents.
That way she doesn't have to worry about unsolvable math questions.
However, this is ultimately just a fantasy and cannot be realized.
"What is wrong?"
While she was thinking wildly, Ren stopped writing and looked at Fumino who had been staring at his face for a long time.
"No, it's okay."
Fumino who was still distracted heard Ren suddenly, she answered.
"Oh."
After confirming that it had nothing to do with him, Ren was ready to do his homework.
"That's... Kamikawa-san."
At this time, Fumino suddenly stopped him.
"?"
Ren looked at her.
"Kamikawa-san, your academic performance is excellent, are you planning to choose liberal arts or science? Or, what do you want to do in the future?"
After hesitating for a moment, Fumino asked the doubts in her heart.
When Ren helped them with tutoring, she occasionally brought up this topic.
She wanted to choose science and applied to a university that excelled in astronomy. Rizu wants to choose liberal arts and is applying to universities that offer psychology. Even though Itsuki hasn't decided which course she will choose in the future. But she said she wants to be a teacher in the future.
They all talked about their dreams or plans for the future, but Ren didn't say it, nor did he express his thoughts regarding this.
Therefore, Fumino, who wanted to be friends with him, planned to ask him to ask questions when they were alone.
"I got bad grades."
Ren didn't answer her question, but first corrected the error her his words.
He is not a student with good grades.
"Okay, I understand," Fumino answered helplesslyhe
Even after all this time, Ren still doesn't admit that his academic performance is very good.
His understanding of this was a stroke of genius.
Seeing that Fumino understood, Ren started to think about the question she asked.
"...I have no idea."
After thinking for a long time, Ren said slowly.
He rarely thought about the future, because for the omnipotent Esper, making plans for the future was very boring.
As long as he was willing, he could complete his plan even though he didn't need to do anything, and didn't need to put in any effort.
Therefore, unless anything unexpected happened, he wanted to continue living as an ordinary person.
Looking forward to the unknown of tomorrow.
"That's a very Kamikawa-san style of reply."
Hearing this, Fumino said with a chuckle.
She didn't care if she didn't get an answer, it was just a question.
"Um."
Ren nodded.
"Anyway, you don't have to make a choice until your senior year of high school, so there's no rush."
Fumino's words seemed to be aimed at Ren, but also at herself.
"There's still enough time..."
"Sorry, I accidentally said unnecessary words."
After saying that, her suddenly reacted and immediately apologized to him.
"Does not matter."
"Let's continue with the questions."
After rubbing her face to avoid being distracted, Fumino continued.
"Okay."
···
(Wrong again)
However, it didn't take long before Fumino put down the pen again and reached for the eraser.
As a result, when she stretched out her hand, she did not touch the eraser, but felt a cool and soft feeling in her palm.
"Eh?"
This obviously wrong touch made her look up.
Her left hand is seen pressing Ren's right hand under hers, making it look like they are holding hands.
"I'm sorry."
Seeing this scene, Fumino immediately let go of his hand and apologized.
Because she is left-handed, she is used to placing things on her left side for easy reach.
Because of this, things often happen such as using the wrong items from other people when they studied together before.
But this was the first time they accidentally held hands.
"Does not matter."
Ren didn't care at all that they were holding hands.
Isn't it just holding hands? Why is this important?
On the other hand, Fumino couldn't calm down at all, even though she had let go of Ren's hand, she still felt embarrassed.
After all, this was her first time holding hands with a boy!
Touching her hot cheeks, Fumino felt embarrassed, and the complicated thoughts that had been suppressed for a long time came back.
Don't worry, now it's just that she and Ren accidentally held hands. Previously, Ren took the initiative to touch her stomach. Compared to that time, this time is nothing.
At first she thought it was okay, but now that she thought about it carefully, Fumino felt her face getting hotter.
As if to cover up her embarrassment and calm her nervous mood, she picked up the glass of water on the table and drank it little by little.
Ren looked at the cup in Fumino's hand, and said calmly:
"Furuhashi-san, the cup in your hand is mine."
