Title: Their Relationship Hasn’t Changed at All

“What?”

Gabriel didn’t quite catch the response.

“I just said, me too.” Ren repeated.

“Hmph, enough.”

Gabriel tried hard to suppress the urge to laugh, but even so, people could clearly hear the smile hidden in her words.

Although she had asked this question a long time ago and received the same answer, the feeling of hearing it again now was completely different from the last time.

Maybe this was the difference between expectation and real experience.

“However, don’t misunderstand. When I said I missed you, I meant it as a longing between good friends. You are not allowed to misinterpret my words.”

After coughing a few times, Gabriel added a specific sentence to cover her embarrassment.

“Me too.”

Ren’s response was still the same as before.

“Huh?”

The smile on Gabriel’s face disappeared instantly.

“What’s wrong?” Ren noticed her change in expression.

“Nothing, I just realized something suddenly.”

Although Gabriel only said she missed Ren as a good friend, it didn’t mean that was what she truly felt in her heart.

And Ren saying he missed her as a good friend meant he truly thought so.

In other words, she had been happy too early.

“Oh.”

Seeing that she didn’t intend to explain in detail, Ren didn’t ask further questions.

After understanding this, Gabriel’s excitement subsided, and she continued to drag him to buy some ingredients that would be used tonight and the next morning, then left the convenience store.

“It’s hard for me to carry things.”

Handing the bag of ingredients to Ren, Gabriel followed him empty-handed, keeping pace with him.

“Um.”

The convenience store was not far from the apartment where they lived, so they only walked for a short while to the apartment door.

As they were about to go upstairs, Mafuyu, dressed in casual clothes, walked down the stairs.

“Good afternoon, Kirisu-sensei.”

The first time he saw her, Ren greeted her.

Gabriel then said, “Long time no see, Kirisu-sensei.”

“Long time no see, Tenma-san. Good afternoon, Kamikawa-san.”

Mafuyu replied hastily.

Her eyes swept over the bag in Ren’s hand, and she said to Gabriel apologetically, “I’m sorry, Tenma-san, I didn’t take good care of Kamikawa-san during the summer vacation...”

“It’s okay, sensei. I was the one who asked you to do something inappropriate. If anyone is to blame, I bear the biggest responsibility.”

Before Mafuyu finished speaking, she was forcibly interrupted by Gabriel.

Who would have thought Asumi would suddenly appear during the pleasant summer vacation?

In any case, Gabriel hadn’t expected it, which disrupted her initial plans.

“Moreover, wasn’t Kamikawa’s life pretty good this summer? So, sensei, you are not allowed to apologize to me.”

This could be considered a blessing in disguise, as Ren didn’t revert to only eating bread three times a day.

“Alright.”

Mafuyu was relieved.

“Then we won’t disturb you. Goodbye, sensei.”

Saying this, Gabriel pulled Ren away from her.

“Goodbye.”

So, Mafuyu left and walked straight into the distance.

And they walked to the second floor and reached door 202.

Opening the door, Gabriel went in first, followed by Ren.

“I will assign the tasks. I will cook dinner for us, and you will help me clean the room.”

Seeing her house, which had become dusty after not living in it for a month, Gabriel turned to Ren.

“Okay.”

Ren agreed without hesitation.

“Good.”

With help carrying the bag to the kitchen, Ren was ready to start cleaning the room.

“What’s this?”

He planned to tidy up the bed first, but he found something strange and familiar on Gabriel’s bed—a bracelet broken into two.

Hearing his question, Gabriel came out of the kitchen: “What are you talking about?”

“This, I remember it seems to be Raphi’s...”

Ren held the item in his hand.

After seeing the broken bracelet in his hand, Gabriel rushed over and took it: “It’s nothing, just a broken bracelet.”

Because she went to the water park right after she came back, she forgot to clean up the broken teleportation bracelet at home.

“Wasn’t that bracelet a birthday gift from Raphi?” Ren recalled.

“Yes, but it broke accidentally.”

Gabriel didn’t want to explain too much about it.

However, Ren had already understood the meaning of the bracelet.

The main reason was that he felt the residual magic teleportation aura on the bracelet when he touched it earlier.

Thinking back to the night of the fireworks display, Gabriel’s sudden appearance and disappearance.

Even Ren could make a reasonable guess in this case.

Gabriel must have descended from heaven relying on that bracelet.

“I see.”

Ren didn’t say anything about helping to fix it, because as an ordinary person, he couldn’t do it.

“You should clean it up soon.”

Putting the broken bracelet into her pocket, Gabriel pretended to be dissatisfied and urged him.

“Yes.”

Ren started cleaning the room seriously, and Gabriel also returned to the kitchen and began her cooking task.

“Do you need me to pack your luggage?”

After cleaning the room, Ren brought Gabriel’s suitcase back from her house and confirmed with her.

“Yes!”

Gabriel’s answer echoed.

After receiving her answer, Ren helped her put the clothes she brought back into the closet.

He was the one who helped her pack her luggage back then, but now it was the other way around.

After he finished all this, Gabriel still hadn’t prepared tonight’s dinner.

After confirming there was nothing else to do, Ren sat at the table and took out his phone out of habit, wanting to see if anyone else had sent him messages.

Before he could turn on the screen, he suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of déjà vu.

Had he repeated this action many times?

Staring at Gabriel busy in the kitchen, Ren understood what was called a sense of déjà vu.

After all, this was their daily routine before the summer vacation, and now they were back to that state.

Sure enough, the relationship between him and Gabriel hadn’t changed at all.
