Capítulo 16: Park at Night
It's understandable if they show up here, but why are they staring at him shamelessly?
Happy to meet his childhood friend, but haven't he and Eriri lost touch for a long time?
Eriri is here, something's not right...
Nagi furrowed his brow slightly. "Eriri? Why are you here?"
'Eriri' paused for a moment, then shrugged lightly, her tone quick. "I just happened to pass by and popped in to browse when I saw there was a shop open here."
She glanced at Kagurazaka and said with a smile. "Looks like I arrived just in time. You're chatting lively."
Nagi smiled awkwardly. "Yes, we're discussing some interesting topics."
Kagurazaka chimed in curiously. "Is she Ryuga-sensei's girlfriend?"
Nagi was taken aback by her question and quickly waved his hand to deny it. "No, no, we're... just friends."
Quietly, he glanced at Eriri and saw a serious expression on her face.
Eriri smiled lightly. "Nanaba-kun, remember to go home on time and don't provoke strangers outside."
She glanced at Nagi, then at Kagurazaka, "You can keep chatting, I won't disturb you."
Nagi nodded and said hesitantly. "Alright..."
Eriri walked back towards Kikuri, who was enjoying her food, and urged her to leave. Nagi glanced back at them with mixed feelings in his heart.
They were good friends but drifted apart because of his wrong actions back then.
Since then, when they met, Eriri ignored his greetings.
Today, Eriri took the initiative to greet him, which might be a reconciliation signal from her.
He didn't know if he should take the initiative to talk to her, maybe he could loosen the bond between them.
Kagurazaka noticed Nagi's mood change and gently patted his shoulder. "It's okay. Maybe this is your chance to talk things out."
Nagi sighed and shook his head. "I don't know, maybe she doesn't want to see me."
Kagurazaka smiled softly. "I was just about to leave, go ahead and don't worry about me, they just left."
Nagi hesitated for a moment but eventually decided to talk to Eriri.
He thanked Kagurazaka for her encouragement, then turned and left the restaurant. Nagi quickly exited the restaurant, looking nervous and anxious. His eyes scanned up and down the busy street, trying to spot the two familiar figures. However, after passing through the crowd of pedestrians, he found that they had disappeared without a trace.
The shops, pedestrians, and vehicles on both sides of the street seemed out of tune with his current mood.
After being stunned for a few seconds, Nagi took a deep breath, stopped searching, headed to the subway station, and boarded the subway home.

"Gabriel, why are you acting without permission?!" Satania shook Gabriel forcefully.
"I don't know. ᗜ ‸ ᗜ" Gabriel blinked and replied innocently.
Seeing Nagi talking to that weird Onee-san, she felt annoyed and walked closer without restraint.
Satania sighed and held her forehead helplessly.
"You teleported me back, it's over, I need to get back right away! Hey, why are you playing games?! Let's go!"
But Gabriel casually refused. "Don't want to."
"Hah, if you don't go, then I won't go either! I'll stay here!" As she spoke, Satania took out a large bottle of orange juice from the fridge and stopped. Seeing another cake in the fridge, she opened it and ate it without asking Gabriel.
"Wow~ It tastes so good! After hearing what Vigne told me about your experiences, I thought your house would be a dump. I didn't expect your house to be so clean and comfortable."
"This is Nagi's house. ᗜ ‸ ᗜ"
"Eh—"
Satania was stunned for a moment, then realized that Nagi's position began to move.
It seems she had accepted Gabriel's proposal and obediently went home. This made Satania feel a little nervous,
"Why don't we leave first? It doesn't seem appropriate for us to enter his house without permission."
"Okay... Satania, I won't invite you to my house. I want to play." Gabriel opened the door and left with her.
"Who wants to go to your house?"
＊＊＊
The park is calm and beautiful at night, with a gentle breeze blowing and leaves rustling.
Nagi was walking alone on the familiar street, feeling a bit melancholic.
He had just come out of the subway station, instead of going straight home, he chose to come to the park he knew.
As he immersed himself in the peace of the night, a familiar voice sounded. "Nanaba-kun, you really like being here."
Nagi looked up and saw Mahiru standing not far away, smiling at him.
He was slightly surprised, but quickly adjusted his emotions, smiled, and looked at Mahiru.
"Yes, this is one of my favorite places. The park always makes me feel peaceful and comfortable at night."
Mahiru walked to his side and stood silently, nodding her head to show her understanding.
"I also like the wind becoming gentler at this time. The breeze blows softly and soothes the slight tremors of the leaves."
Nagi gazed at Mahiru with a blank stare, and his smile became clearer. In the park at night, they shared this beauty. It seemed like there were only two people left in the whole world.
They walked side by side, the leaves rustling as if accompanying them.
Nagi took a deep breath and spoke hesitantly.
"Shiina, I want to tell you something. It's a problem my friend is facing, I don't know how to help him, so I want to hear your opinion."
Mahiru nodded to show that she was listening.
"There's a misunderstanding between my friend and his childhood friend. He doesn't know how to resolve it. They were very good friends, but now the childhood friend is ignoring him."
Mahiru listened carefully and nodded from time to time.
"I understand your friend's feelings. Misunderstandings can be very painful. Especially if they involve someone close to you. But I think if your friend really wants to explain it to the girl, you should face it bravely. Avoiding it won't solve the problem, it will only deepen the misunderstanding."
Nagi smiled bitterly, "Yes, I also know that running away is not an option."
Mahiru thought for a moment, "Maybe you can help your friend find a solution. For example, they can find a quiet place and have a good conversation. Let your friend express her thoughts without holding anything back. Maybe the girl will understand."
"Alright, I'll tell my friend. Thank you for your advice, Shiina."
Mahiru blinked, "Nanaba-kun, I've helped you a lot, what do you think?"
Nagi was slightly surprised, "Do you want something?"
"Um, I haven't thought about it."
"In that case, I owe you a favor first, then let me know when you think about it."
