Chapter 32
Even though I normally wasn’t this aware of Shima’s presence…
My chest throbbed faster and faster, and Akito’s face turned bright red in an instant.
“…. Aki?”
What should I do?
What is this?
I was so embarrassed I couldn’t look up.
Why is my heart pounding like this?
I held my chest and took a shallow breath.
“Huuuuuuu haa…”
“Are you okay?”
“…No problem. I’m fine.”
Even after breathing and feeling a little better, for a while, I still couldn’t bring myself to look at Shima’s face.
