"That outfit seems different from what you would usually buy."
Yuhi only intended it as a casual remark, but her expression gave it away immediately.
At that comment, Sumire coughed awkwardly. "Uh."
"Now that I think about it, during Christmas day, you received a package."
She acted so secretively about it, so he decided not to think too deeply. But, 'Sumire is close to a designer guy.' Those rumors lingered in his heart. He even overheard those women discussing it in the bar the other day.
Sumire bit her lip and sighed deeply. "I can't keep hiding this from you, Yuhi. Have you heard of the name Kozumi Toh?"
Yuhi blinked when he heard her words. "Is that guy the designer student you fooled around with?"
"Yes." Sumire trailed off. "To be honest, we weren't fooling around."
"Was it serious?"
"It became serious. I was seriously considering him to be my boyfriend, and we talked about it a lot being in a serious relationship."
