SANO
But, what stood out to him was the memory of Mashima coming and the words Sumire said in her head.
'My safe place.'
Sano already knew that he didn't stand a chance against Terashima, but a part of him still hoped that he would be able to replace Mashima's position in her heart. It's impossible. No matter how comfortable she is becoming with him, it's not enough.
'I can never beat Mashima Toh.'
"You know the entire time it happened, I actually thought about that time that taxi driver almost assaulted me and you saved me, and the time with your friends."
Sano cringed.
"Will you be honest with me now? The first one, I know you didn't do it. But, the second with your friends. That wasn't a coincidence was it?"
Sano briefly parted his lips and mumbled. "Yes." Before he shamelessly drank from her again. He really is scum, how could he do something like that to her?
