As the sun began to rise on the horizon, two figures cast long shadows as they walked toward their destination. One was tall and wearing workout gear while slinging a pink bicycle on his shoulder, while the other was carrying bags full of baked goods.
While the scene might look romantic from an outsider perspective, the two people in particular were dead silent. Only the sound of their footsteps and the rattling of the incapacitated bike rang in their ears.
Ai was currently staring at the ground as she walked forward, her cheeks flushed in embarrassment. She didn't know what to say to break the silence that she felt was picking away at her sanity.
Ken on the other hand was mortified.
'How could I have been so stupid…'
He blamed himself for hurting the woman beside him, even if the wound was just superficial. Caught up in his own thoughts, he didn't realize the atmosphere had become so unbearable.
Looks like both Ai and Ken are starting to relax a little around each other and make some progress. Ken seems to be forgetting something though...
