Bab 14: River Revelations

The sun hung high in the sky, casting a warm, golden glow over the tranquil river. Naomi and Kaori waded through the cool, refreshing water, their laughter mingling with the melodious songs of birds perched in the trees above. The river's gentle current caressed their legs, and the sunlight danced on the surface, creating a shimmering mosaic of light and shadow.

Kaori gazed upstream, her eyes reflecting the serene beauty of their surroundings. "What do you think about our neighbor?" she asked, her voice carrying a hint of mischief.

Naomi, caught off guard, playfully splashed water in Kaori's direction. "Who?" she replied, a teasing smile playing on her lips.

"You know who I mean," Kaori said, grinning mischievously.

Naomi raised an eyebrow, her curiosity piqued. "Kaito?"

"Of course Kaito!" Kaori nodded eagerly, her grin widening.
