Chapter 93: Awkward with Initiative

"Ding-dong!"

Less than a minute after the doorbell was pressed, the main door was opened.

The one who opened the door was Ren Amamiya, dressed in casual clothes.

"..."

Seeing Mao Li Lan at the doorway, Ren Amamiya was clearly stunned for a moment.

Then he looked at Suzuki Sonoko, and only then did he nod in understanding.

"I see."

"I guessed you also received the diary, and I was wondering if you would meet me on a day after school, just like Kaguya Sigong and the others."

"I didn't expect you to choose a weekend, and to come with Suzuki-san."

"I am very sorry, Ren-san."

Mao Li Lan, standing outside the door, bowed deeply to apologize.

"I don't know what else to say, so I could only have Sonoko accompany me."

"Hmm... there isn't actually much need to apologize."

"Actually, being suddenly dragged by Suzuki-san on a date made me quite uneasy myself."

"Compared to the tense atmosphere of a date, perhaps this situation is actually better."

"It feels like the gaps in our conversation won't be as large as before."

Ren Amamiya was being realistic; his mood had truly relaxed at that moment.

"C-come in first."

"Some things aren't really suitable to say outside."

"Thank you."

Mao Li Lan, having been forgiven, felt her mood improve a bit.

Suzuki Sonoko, standing beside her, quickly took off her shoes and directly grabbed Ren Amamiya, who was about to walk inside.

"Ren, our date isn't going to end just like that, you know."

"... Eh? Suzuki-san still plans to go on a date?"

Ren Amamiya, who had been grabbed, looked completely surprised.

"Of course."

"Today I came along only because Ran is unable to come alone; this doesn't mean I intend to ruin my own date."

"I just plan to change the time of the date."

Suzuki Sonoko was extremely self-assured.

Her obsession with dates was very deep; her purpose was also quite simple: she simply liked good-looking boys.

Especially handsome guys with very high hidden scores.
