Intro
The school building after classes still held traces of people. Voices from club activities and footsteps echoed in the hallway where the afternoon sun streamed in.
Eh, me? He tilted his head while speaking in a slightly high-pitched voice. The expression smiling beneath his bangs was soft, as usual. You're asking me again? I guess I have no choice.
Small chuckles rose from the people around them. "Cute and sociable"—that was his position at school.
He waved his hand lightly to settle the situation. It was a well-executed response that put everyone at ease.
—Then, just past the corner. The moment they were out of sight, the atmosphere changed.
Kanato stopped walking and let out a short breath.
