Capítulo 84: Chapter 80: Going to Pick Up Onodera

The rain was pouring heavily,

and the entire sky had darkened.

The gloominess made the girl at the cash register involuntarily shudder.

"With this weather, I'm not going back at lunch..."

She muttered softly, taking out her cellphone to start texting her friend, complaining about the awful weather.

Raindrops hitting the glass formed little streams that fogged up her view.

In the living room, there was only the young lady by herself, seeming a bit lonely.
