<Author’s Notes>

I was working overtime and came home late, so today’s chapter is short.

Laguna-san led us to the dining room, and as I sat down at the table alongside Fors-san, I suddenly thought of something. Somehow, our hands were still intertwined without any particular moment to let go, but what should I do?

No, of course, now that we are seated is the perfect time to let go, but since Fors-san is holding my hand quite firmly, I feel a bit awkward about letting go.

Though I said that, since we were about to eat, we couldn’t just keep on holding hands, so I called out to her while Laguna-san went to check on the kitchen.

[……Errr, we’re in the dining room now, so let’s let go of each other’s hands.]

[Ahh…… Yes, you’re right. It’s not like we can eat while holding hands, so this would be the appropriate moment. Good gracious, I’ve been constantly relying on you, and I apologize for that.]

A- Arehh? Did I make a mistake in my choice……? It seemed like, for a moment, she had this regretful or lonely expression on her face, as if she didn’t want to let go. I can’t help but feel a strange sense of guilt, but seriously, if we kept holding hands, we might end up having our meal while still holding hands, so it can’t be helped.

Well, I can understand the feeling of loneliness when you let go of the hands you’ve been holding for a long while, and I think everyone would have such a feeling.

While I was thinking about this, Laguna-san, who had gone to the kitchen, came back.

[It seems like they’ve already prepared, but should I have them bring it over?]

[Ah, yes. Thank you.]

After hearing my response, Laguna-san instructed the maids to bring the food, before sitting next to me…… at the seat opposite from Fors-san.

[……Laguna-san, may I ask you one question?]

[Unnn? What is it?]

[With how big this table is in such a large dining room…… Why are you sitting so close to me?]

[There’s no rule that says we would have to make use of all the space in the large tables, right? Besides, when you’re sitting next to each other flirting over there, isn’t it cruel to just exclude me?]

[……Laguna? If you want me to bury you back under the ground again, just say so. The fact that he and I are sitting next to each other is simply because we had been holding hands earlier. In the first place, the reason we were holding hands was because you gave him those strange instructions via hummingbird.]

[……Pretty sure I gave accurate instructions though……]

In fact, I think Laguna-san’s instructions were spot on too. If we had not held hands or taken some other action, Fors-san would almost certainly have ended up getting lost, so holding hands at that time was the right choice.

Laguna-san looked somewhat astounded as she replied, but then, a grin appeared on her lips. Lightly nudging my side with her elbow, she spoke.

[Hey, Kaito, you got two flowers in both hands, you know?]

[Ahh~~ Self-Proclaimed Flower-kun, let’s not bother him with strange entanglements, yes? Also, although he’s relatively accustomed to situations like this…… When you consider his impressive lineup of lovers, I’m impressed you can confidently call yourself a flower. Well, with girls of my level whose qualities aren’t even better than yours, wouldn’t I just be a common girl a playboy like him is used to seeing?]

[Eh? No, I think Fors-san is a very cute and attractive woman though?]

[……………………Is…… that so? That is very……]

I spoke out my thoughts, but Fors-san turned away, perhaps feeling embarrassed, and she didn’t turn her face toward me again for a while.

<Afterword>

Serious-senpai : [……This isn’t good…… The atmosphere here doesn’t feel so good.]
