'I wonder if anybody else has noticed this, and what do they think for those who have noticed?'
Jun thinks of Nagawa Sano, who is supposedly Narasaki Hino's best friend. What does that man think of Sumire and Hino being close?
'As for me, I feel relieved.' Jun thought.
Sumire-san has gotten a lot better since she arrived in Tokyo, but sometimes there is still a wall between her and other people.
His thoughts break off when Sumire places her hand on the bandage across his head. "On days off, you put this back on, I see."
"Since I haven't recovered yet."
She looked at him with a pained gaze, and Jun quickly interjected. "Thank you for saving me."
He knew these words were long overdue. But, he had to lay low for a while and couldn't meet with her openly.
Sumire shakes her head. "No, you shouldn't thank me. In the end, I caused you problems."
