As the dust settled down with her issue with me, Setsuna-nee soon showed signs of calming down. She stopped huffing like a rabid dog and simply stayed silent not far from me. We also stopped staring at each other. Only looking ahead to wait for Satsuki and Juri’s return.
Suggesting we look for them was probably a good idea but after thinking about it, we managed to settle our differences quicker than how I was expecting this to go down. She didn’t make it too difficult to understand.
Most likely, Satsuki and Juri also never thought it would be over like this. Although I probably wouldn’t say that the problem was resolved, it’s still better this way.
In any case, since it felt like we were swimming in a sea of awkward silence, I rested my back on the bench and relaxed my posture for a bit. Setsuna-nee glanced at me but didn’t say anything. She did copy me though.
And then, we both cracked a smile.
“Don’t copy me, idiot.”
