As we are hugging each other, I can feel a gaze coming from my left and when I look at my left, I see Aiko is staring at me in silence. I slowly and gently push Erii away from me because I feel a bit guilty even though she might misunderstanding things. Erii wipes her eyes and then realizes that Aiko has been staring at us then she immediately jolts from her seat and looks at Aiko.
"Aiko..."
Aiko is staring at us with a blank expression and I feel so nervous that I feel like I make the same mistake again but to a different person.
Aiko slowly approaches us and keeps staring at us, I don't know what I'm going to say and Erii is feeling the same thing, but then suddenly Aiko sits down while staring at the scenery in between Erii and me. She looks at both of us while raising her eyebrows.
"Am I disturbing you both?"
Erii shakes her head while smiling.
"No, you're not."
Aiko is humming with understanding while staring at Erii.
"I can still see the tears in your eyes, Erii."
