Chapter 192: Natural Order of Things for the Two (2/2)

In a certain sense, these words caused him more shame than the posture just now.

Amane thoroughly understood that Mahiru would instinctively do something very bold, but pinpointing this fact caused him an unspeakable sense of shame.

Mahiru too blushed as she gently hit Amane. It seemed both sides got hurt.

“…You are not doubting my intentions, are you, Amane-kun?”

“Of course. I know I’m the only one next to you, and you’ll only care about me.”

Amane was confident about this one point.

It was likely that Mahiru would not care for anyone other than him.

Such was her personality, and Amane was confident that she was fond of him, and even planned to pledge her future to him. She would always treasure him unless he did anything to annoy her, and she would continue to accompany him.

He said it so confidently, and Mahiru’s face got redder. She headbutted him, that’s a violent way of hiding your shame, Amane chuckled as he let her be.

Truth be told, he too found it embarrassing, but Mahiru’s actions allowed him to disguise his mood.

“…Good that you know.”

Mahiru stopped headbutting, and leaned her forehead on his elbow as she grumbled. Of course, Amane too answered as he gently held the quietened Mahiru by her hand.
