Chapter 122: When She Loses Herself

"Well… you know she wasn't always like this." She stared off into the distance.

"Yeah… I remember Ryuhan Senpai mentioning that." I said, and her hazel eyes shifted towards me and didn't say anything. I continued, "So… she isn't as cold as she looks?"

She again nodded, and with a playful chuckle she said, "No, she likes cute things… like you know she enjoys playing with cats."

"Really?" I was actually taken aback because I enjoy playing with cats too. Though I don't have one at home, that's a different scenario.

"Yeah… she doesn't look that kind of a person, but she is." She laughed.

Not knowing the correct words, I gave it a thought for some time before uttering them hesitantly, "That's kinda… I don't know… wholesome?"

"Yes!" She instantly replied with a joyful expression. It looked like she really liked that side of Naoto as whenever she becomes of the present, a sadness spreads across her face.
