章 313: Are We Really Dating?
As they held hands, Fumino momentarily didn't know what to say, so she lowered her head and followed along.
This was the first time she held hands with a guy. Is this what it feels like to hold hands?
She truly didn't anticipate it at all.
Feeling a somewhat complicated emotion in her heart, Fumino became a bit distracted.
She didn't know why she was holding Ren's hand without a clear reason now, but it had happened, and there was no use regretting it now.
However, she didn't dislike holding hands with Ren, and even mentioned that there was a slight joy in her heart.
She didn't know where this joy came from, and she didn't want to know.
After an unknown amount of time, Fumino suddenly felt like they hadn't talked for a long time, so she lifted her head, planning to say something to ease this seemingly awkward situation.
But as she raised her head, she saw rain streaks connecting to the sky, covering her face, preventing her from seeing the path ahead clearly.
"Where are we?"
Fumino was a bit confused and looked at the scene in front of her with bewilderment.
She had been distracted for a long time, not looking at the road at all, and didn't know where she was.
"On the way home."
Ren's reply wasn't loud but sounded very clear amid the rain.
"I see."
Hearing his voice, Fumino's confusion instantly vanished, as if she had found her backbone.
Feeling that her panic had subsided, she finally looked around casually.
Perhaps due to the heavy rain, after walking for a while, Fumino didn't see any pedestrians other than them on the street.
For a moment, she truly felt like living in a world of just the two of them with Ren.
Thinking about this, Fumino laughed.
She really knew how to think about it; it was evident that she and Ren weren't even a couple.
"What's wrong?"
Hearing her laughter, Ren could only turn to her.
"It's nothing; I just suddenly felt like we really look like a couple." Fumino looked into his eyes and answered softly.
"A couple?" Ren noted this word, making him somewhat worried.
"Yes, look at us holding hands, sharing an umbrella, walking in the rain. No matter how people see it, we look like a couple." At this point, Fumino shook her head and held hands with him. "Besides, holding an umbrella and walking in the rain with someone you like is a very romantic thing."
"..."
Ren didn't quite understand what she meant by her words, so he could only remain silent.
Fumino looked at them holding hands and asked with a smile, "Kamikawa-san, let's... Let's date? Then we won't have to worry about being misunderstood by others."
"?!"
Ren was stunned and even stopped involuntarily.
"It's a joke! It's a joke, it's a joke. See if you're scared..." Seeing his reaction, Fumino hurriedly explained.
"Oh."
After hearing her explanation, Ren quickly regained his composure and continued walking.
"Forgive me; I just said those words unconsciously." After walking for a while, Fumino still felt regretful about her recent behavior.
"It's okay."
Ren didn't pay too much attention to this.
Raphiel had said similar words to him before, and he was already used to it.
"However, this scene is very suitable for a confession, especially when there are only two people, like what I just did." Fumino sighed slightly, then joked, "By the way, Kamikawa-san, remember it; you might need it someday."
Ren nodded and said to her, "Furuhashi-san, are we really dating?"
"Eh?!!!"
Fumino, who initially had a smile on her face, suddenly froze, and her eyes were full of disbelief.
Real or fake?
"Is that so?"
Before she could answer, Ren continued to ask.
"...Yes, right, you did a good job." Fumino immediately breathed a sigh of relief and answered calmly.
She thought, how could Ren suddenly confess to her? It was indeed her misunderstanding.
"Yes, I remember."
"It's okay, but don't use it casually." Fumino reminded, "Jokes like confessions aren't something to be made lightly. It's bad if it causes misunderstandings."
"Okay."
It took him a long time to use a confession like this.
Moreover, he didn't even know if he liked a relationship like this now, let alone confessing to a girl.
"By the way, how long until we get there?"
"We're here."
When Fumino asked that question, Ren stopped on the ground floor of the apartment where he lived.
"Sorry, I didn't realize."
"It's okay."
After bringing Fumino to the corridor, Ren let go of her hand and at the same time placed umbrella.
"..."
After letting go, Fumino felt an inexplicable sense of loss.
"Let's go up."
After shaking off the rainwater and arranging the umbrella, Ren walked towards the second floor.
"Um."
Fumino followed him and walked upstairs.
Ren decided to escort Fumino to his house first, then go tell Gabriel that he had returned.
At the same time, Gabriel who was sitting in the corridor waiting for Ren to return, observed the footsteps in the corridor.
Soundproof rooms were indeed excellent, but she was an angel. Even with soundproofing, she could clearly hear sounds outside.
"Kamikawa should be back."
There were only three people living on the second floor. No one lived in the middle 203. The person returning now was 100% Ren.
But why did his footsteps sound so loud?
But before Ren returned, Gabriel didn't think much and ran to the door and opened it proactively, planning to surprise him.
However, after the door opened, she didn't see Ren standing in front of her door as she expected. Instead, she saw Ren standing in front of his door, taking out his key and preparing to open the door, with Fumino standing behind him.
After fully opening the door, Gabriel approached the two of them and asked with a cold tone, "What are you doing?"
