Bab 2187: Returning to Nami's Neighborhood

After Kazuha-nee finally composed herself, recovering from the aftermath of everything we had done, we both fixed our clothing – even brushing her hair back to its previous neat appearance – she decided to escort me out. Not because she wanted to extend our time together but to ensure that the coast was clear.

Who knows? Ogawa might return and give us a surprise, right? Even if Kazuha-nee doesn’t explain my presence to him, he’ll surely reach his own conclusion considering we ran to each other when I walked Hina home.

As we reached the front door of their house, I could still feel the lingering warmth between us. Even after all that, the tension had yet to dissipate between us.

Our gazes at each other remained as sticky as if we were both just waiting for one of us to break our restraints.

That’s why upon seeing the path outside illuminated by the streetlamp as the door opened, I leaned in and stole a quick kiss, catching her completely off guard.
