Volume 13 Chapter 4 Departure And Confession, Part Three
I... I like you, Rain-san――
When Nina suddenly confessed her feelings to me, I froze in place.
My heart started pounding, thump, thump, as if it was about to burst.
I never expected Nina to think of me that way.
How do I feel about her?
Oh no, this is bad.
My mind went blank, and I couldn't think of anything.
This is the first time in my life that a girl has confessed to me.
The tension inside me rises like an explosion.
To be honest, I was even more nervous than when I fought against the Light Dragon King.
"Oh, no, I... I didn't mean to say something like this..."
Nina covered her mouth with a startled expression.
"Nina..."
"...!"
When I looked at Nina, she turned away with a bright red face.
It seems like her words earlier weren't just a joke.
So, does that mean Nina really――
"I'm really sorry for saying something like that all of a sudden... I'm sure Rain-san is troubled by this too, right?"
"N-no, I... "
"I-it's just my one-sided feelings... I'm sorry, I apologize...!"
"Um, please don't apologize... I, I..."
I can't think straight.
It seems like Nina is really flustered too.
There's a mix of confusion and embarrassment in the air between us.
"...Please forget what just happened. I'm really sorry..."
"Nina...!"
"Please tell Mary-chan that I'm leaving early today. I'm sorry for doing things on my own..."
As soon as she said that, Nina ran off in a flash.
I couldn't catch up with her because of her speed.
Or rather, I was left standing there dumbfounded.
I was too shocked to move.
"Phew, that was surprising..."
The lingering effects of Nina's confession still remain.
The initial shock is gradually fading, replaced by a surge of excitement within me.
"Nina...she confessed her feelings for me――"
I can't help but feel happy.
Of course, I'll eventually have to give her an answer, but for now, let me immerse myself in this moment.
"Rain, you've got a big grin on your face."
Suddenly, a voice comes from right beside me.
"――Wait, Mirabell!?"
"I'm right here."
She had somehow appeared behind me without me noticing.
"Hey, how long have you been here!?"
"I've been following you without making a sound. I was looking forward to seeing your reaction when you found me."
"Oh, really..."
I didn't feel her presence at all.
