Capítulo 2200: No Rule Broken

Shortly after that, Orimura-sensei and I spent the time in constrained silence. I was waiting for her to make her move but other than furtively glancing at me, Orimura-sensei could only fidget at my side.

I watched her struggle to get past her internal conflict, holding myself back from reaching to her.

I mean two of the three rules pretty much put a lid on how I could act around her. No kiss initiative and no arguing with her.

Opening up a topic was possible. But at this point, what should I say? Tease her more? Then, it might lead to her third rule; making her lose control of herself.

Anyway, after a long while. Or maybe it wasn’t that long?

Orimura-sensei heavily breathed in before echoing what she said last, her words hung in the air like a challenge.

"For now…”

With that, I leaned back slightly, watching her next move carefully.

Once again, her eyes kept flicking between me and the space in front of us as if she was still calculating her next move.
