"Hey! Why are you laughing?! Y-You should've told me, geez."
Arthur smiled at Kaede amusingly as he shrugged. "I thought you noticed." He replied teasingly. Although Arthur wasn't sure why he was doing this, he had a strong urge to tease her even more.
Hearing his words, Kaede blushed even harder as she covered her face. "Oh my god, I feel like hiding now. I'm sorry, did that make you feel uncomfortable?"
"Hm? No, not at all. In fact…" As Arthur was about to speak, his mouth stopped as he froze for a second.
"In fact what?"
"Uh, hahaha, nothing, nothing. I was just saying nonsense." He replied as he shook his hand.
'What was I about to say? That I actually enjoyed it? Am I insane? She would think I'm some kind of creep. Tsk, I need to choose my words carefully so as not to jeopardize myself.' He mused secretly as he turned to Kaede again.
"I'm sorry, Yuka. But, it's really not what you think it is."
