"Thank you for accepting Ayane," Itsuki says with a smile for having accepted his invitation to date. I end up handing his letter back as a way of saying I've accepted.
"You won't regret it, Ayane, I swear I'll follow your boundaries," he says, as I made it clear that there would be no touching, kissing, or anything advanced in the beginning, since we barely know each other to have that kind of intimacy.
"I appreciate your understanding," I tell him.
"So how about we go on a date tonight? You can choose the place, and we can meet there if you don't feel comfortable with me picking you up at home," he says excitedly.
"Hmm, I think we can go to a diner near the city center, we can meet there," I show him on my phone.
"I know the place, so it's set for 7 PM, how's that?" he asks, and I nod, seems good enough.
It's been two days since Setsuna hasn't come to school, recovering. It's a shame, I think I can tell her tomorrow how the date with Itsuki went.
