Bab 1495: Orange Tinted Lies (2)

 SANO

"San, can you hold my hand?"

Sano blinked at her sudden request but a thought from the past flashed through his head. That's right, when she is sick, she ends up in this meek state. Sano places his hand on top of hers and Sumire squeezes it.

He felt his heart beat speed up at that action.

Damn, she really makes it difficult for him to hold back. Why does she always act so cutely? But, this really isn't the time to kiss her again.

"How have you been? I really haven't seen you much recently." 

"I've been-"

"-coming to see me right? I'm sorry, I couldn't come greet you." Sumire sighed. "Takano was being really stingy. He said since you came as a fan, I couldn't give you special treatment."

Sano frowned at those words. Despite how professional Tokumori made it sound like, he could already sense the disgust behind them.

"I've heard that he has quite the temper." Sano said, choosing his words carefully.
