Nao, with a joyful smile on her face, expressed, “This is my first time coming to a place like this with Mamoru-kun. I feel reassured because he’s here watching over me.” She showed a determined and earnest side as she asked Mamoru-kun, “Could you please teach this part?” Her gaze was filled with a hint of shyness, making Mamoru feel a sense of devotion towards her.
Mamoru, unaware of the circumstances, couldn’t bear to see Nao in despair and decided to confront the situation head-on. Witnessing Nao’s unwavering determination, Mamoru found himself drawn to her attitude. In a secluded study session for just the two of them, Mamoru found himself captivated by Nao’s determination and teary eyes. His emotions started to spiral out of control. However, Nao’s elation at being able to do such a thing was short-lived as Mamoru’s words cut through the moment.
