The weather in summer changed rapidly.
In the afternoon, it rained again.
The dark clouds completely shielded the sunlight, and one could hear the dense sound of raindrops even while sitting inside the house.
In the room, Kagura Hikaru and Kiryu Hina each sat in front of the desk and on the bed, staring blankly at books, both remaining silent.
It was so quiet that only the sound of rain and the turning of pages could be heard.
"Do you really plan to date Ayakoji Chiyoko?" After a long time, Kiryu Hina suddenly spoke.
Kagura Hikaru kept a calm expression, "Why do you ask?"
"Because you kissed her..."
"Yes."
"Although I hate to admit it, Ayakoji Chiyoko is indeed a great beauty, and it wouldn't be surprising if you had feelings for her."
"Kissing someone I don't like, do you think that would make me happy?" Kagura Hikaru said coldly without lifting his head.
"..."
A thick barrier of silence was erected between them.
Kiryu Hina realized her slip of the tongue.
