Naturally, I didn't continue reaching for her shoulder after that kind of reaction. Instead, I looked at her straight with an inquiring gaze to push down the pressure on her. It's my turn, I guess.
Noticing that, Minori-senpai noticeably fixed her hair and then wet her dried lips before gulping down.
That simple action actually made her more human, or rather, it hit me that she was not really as still as I thought she was. She could still be shaken and exhibit traits a girl her age would do.
"Haa... There is no escaping those keen eyes of yours, is there?"
"I apologize, senpai."
"Give me your hand."
"Hmm?"
"Just hurry and give it to me. You want to know, am I correct?"
"Yes. Then, here."
Upon saying that, I brought my hand to her which Minori-senpai immediately grabbed.
While holding that, she used her other hand to unbutton her uniform; the first two below her neck.
