This afternoon, Aira intentionally invited Saki and Issei to go to a supermarket to shop for groceries. It wasn't because they were running out of food at home, but because there was something Aira wanted to eat and cook with her best friend. Coincidentally, Saki would be staying overnight at Aira's house to keep her company since Renji had to leave town for work for two days and one night, leaving Aira alone at home.
Even though they had to be apart and could only communicate through their phones, the longing in their hearts was overwhelming. Just thinking about it made Aira's cheeks flush red with embarrassment. She felt like a teenager in love, though she attributed it to her pregnancy hormones, considering she was heavily pregnant.
