Title: Nino Starts Talking

“Sure.”

Seeing Gabriel’s outstretched hand in front of him, Ren handed over his school bag, which he had just packed, without hesitation.

“I hope you have fun later.”

Feeling the slightly heavy school bag, Gabriel accidentally glanced towards the back door.

There stood Nino, waiting for Ren to get ready.

She didn’t speak, just watched the scene quietly.

Their eyes met in the air, then parted briefly.

“Nino, let me take back your school bag for you.”

Seeing the school bag in her hand, Itsuki also extended her hand.

“Um. I don’t know when I’ll be back tonight. If you get hungry, you can find a way to have dinner first.”

As she handed over her school bag, Nino also gave some thoughtful advice.

Taking her school bag, Itsuki asked in surprise, “Are you coming back late tonight?”

Gabriel held the school bag a bit tighter, waiting for Nino’s answer.

“It’s just a possibility.”

Nino shook her head, still with a slight smile on her face.

“I feel like you’re a bit strange, Nino...”

Seeing Nino standing in front of her as if everything was normal, Itsuki felt very odd.

She always felt something was off... Was Nino too polite?

They were clearly sisters, so the attitude and words they used while chatting could be more casual.

“Ready.”

After checking multiple times, Ren was sure nothing was missing.

“Then let’s go.” Nino said softly.

“Um.”

Ren stood up and walked towards her.

Just before they were about to leave the classroom, Gabriel’s voice sounded again.

“Kamikawa.”

“What’s wrong?”

Ren turned to look.

Gabriel stood by her seat and asked softly, “Come back early.”

“Um.”

Ren agreed.

❀❀❀

Several small, unfamiliar groups.

Nakano Itsuki: [Kamikawa-kun and Nino are going out this afternoon. Can we use this opportunity to discuss the birthday party?]

Kominami Asumi: [I always feel the previous information is more important.]

Nakano Ichika: [Wait a minute, Itsuki didn’t make a typo, right?]

Gabriel: [It’s Nino, and she came to our class to find Kamikawa right after school.]

Nakano Miku: [What exactly is happening?]

Fujiwara Chika: [Even though I saw the scene where Nino-san came to Kamikawa-kun, I don’t know what exactly happened.]

Nakano Yotsuba: [I also want to know.]

Gabriel: [Let me explain.]

So, Gabriel sent the information she learned from Ren during the day and what happened this afternoon to the group.

Nakano Ichika: [I always feel something’s off about this.]

Nakano Miku: [I feel the same way, this isn’t something Nino would do.]

Satania: [What are you all talking about? Weren’t we going to discuss the birthday party?]

However, after she said these words, the group suddenly fell silent.

Satania: [Why aren’t you answering my question?]

Satania: [Where is everyone? Why do you all disappear when I come?]

Kominami Asumi: [We can’t reach any conclusions by discussing this now, so let’s talk about the birthday party first.]

Nakano Ichika: [That’s right.]

“Kamikawa-san, is this the first time the two of us have walked together like this?”

After leaving the school and walking in a random direction for a while, Nino took the initiative to speak.

“Yes.” Ren turned to her, “This has never happened before.”

“I’m really not used to it.”

Nino rubbed her eyes, and her tone became lower.

“I’m fine. Where are we going now?”

Ren tried to continue the conversation.

“I don’t know, I’m just wandering around.”

“In other words, are we just strolling?”

“Yes, just strolling. Because I heard from others that Kamikawa-san really likes walking, so I wanted to confirm if this statement is true.”

Nino tilted her head and looked at Ren, showing a sly smile: “I just don’t know if Kamikawa-san is willing to give me this opportunity?”

“Sure.”

Ren didn’t refuse and had no reason to.

“Then let’s continue walking aimlessly.”

Nino seemed very happy.

“Um.”

Ren followed her, walking casually.

Nino didn’t take the opportunity to talk, and she didn’t intend to speak, as if the previous conversation hadn’t happened.

Maintaining this silence, the two walked side by side on the road.

Who knows how long they had been walking.

Although summer vacation had passed, the weather was still hot, and the air was very warm.

An inexplicable atmosphere continued between the two of them.

“It feels like we’ve traveled a long distance in one go. I even saw students from other schools.”

Finally, Nino broke the silence and said with a slight sigh.

“We have indeed traveled a long distance.” Ren agreed.

Nino suggested, “Coincidentally, I’m also tired, let’s find a place to rest for a while.”

“No problem.”

So at Nino’s suggestion, they chose a bubble tea shop as a place to rest for a bit.

“Whatever you want, I’ll treat you.”

After entering the bubble tea shop, Nino said these words very proudly.

“I’ll have the same as you.”

Seeing the dazzling variety of bubble teas and various juices on the menu, Ren decided to leave the choice to her.

“You two...”

The clerk seemed to want to say something upon seeing this, but was interrupted by Nino.

“Not a couple, just two cups of regular brown sugar pearl milk tea.”

“Okay.”

The clerk replied politely.

After paying, Nino led Ren to find a seat near the window in the shop and sat down, then started looking out the window.

When the milk tea was served, she continued: “Kamikawa-san, let’s chat for a bit.”

“What do you want to talk about?”

Inserting the straw into the milk tea, Ren waited for her to start the topic.

“When I came here, there shouldn’t be any special situations where I met others by chance. I can safely say some more embarrassing things.”

Turning her face away from the crowd outside the window, Nino asked: “So, I hope Kamikawa-san can keep it a secret for me and not tell anyone else.”

“Sure.”

Keeping secrets was Ren’s specialty.

Looking directly at Ren, who was sitting opposite her, Nino slowly said, “I confessed to the person I like some time ago, but I was rejected.”
