"I didn't expect to meet her in this place. I remember not replying to her messages and calls when I wanted to break through to the innate realm. I don't know if she still contacted me after that." Tenku muttered as he watched Kirika from a distance.
He remembered the last time he checked his smartphone, the number of messages and missed calls from Kirika were almost as many as Setsuka's. But Tenku was too focused on his breakthrough and ignored it until now. He didn't know if Kirika was still sending messages and calling him because he still hadn't bought a new smartphone.
Tenku stood behind a snowbank and secretly watched the MV shooting of Kirika's new song. He ensured it was far enough away from that location for the girl not to notice. Tenku liked one of Kirika's songs and was curious about the new one.
