章節 1331: A Losing Battle

Like I had guessed, I got visited by Rae’s friend, Nazuki, and the Basketball Club Captain, Kawakami-senpai, to inquire about the new rumors that recently floated.

Although I didn’t know them well enough to completely trust them, I still acted the same as when I talked with Momoiro-senpai just to put their mind at ease.

Obviously, they're not easily convinced compared to Momoiro-senpai. But at least, they also didn't push it past the boundary of at what point they could meddle in our relationship.

Though this felt like I had just buried us deeper into a huge hole by keeping the real situation to them, no other choice was clearly present.

Our situation was kinda unique, after all – if no one attempted it before us. We just have to hope that when the time comes that we have to come clean about our real situation, they can accept it.

That’s in the realm of wishful thinking but hey, better be optimistic than pessimistic. That will only interfere with our everyday lives.
