Otonari no Tenshi-sama ni Itsu no Ma ni ka Dame Ningen ni Sareteita Ken Chapter 157 – The Adamant Murmur

"...So, what shall I do if I et that man?"

Mahiru continued to lean on Amane's chest, and Amane asked while he gently patted her head. She then slowly lifted her head, and stared back at him with a peaceful look.

Her eyes showed no pain or hesitation, and he relaxed, looking back at her. Mahiru seed a little gaudy to be stared at, and lowered her eyebrows.

"...I think you may do whatever you want, Amane-kun."

"You don't want to ask what I want to do?"

He thought she would not let him interfere, but she slowly shook her head.

"No...it would be a different matter if we t him together, or if I t him alone. Since you t that man alone, Amane-kun, I shall not say comnt on what you intend to do. Of course, I wish you will inform first."

"...I see. So you an you're not willing to get involved?"

"Yes...if he has sothing to say to , he should go up to and say sothing, and send a letter. It is strange of him to hide and observe. I shall not do anything if he is not looking for , and I shall ignore him."

Mahiru was really skeptical of the man resembling her father, but it seed she would not take the initiative to look for him. Amane probably would do the sa if he was in Mahiru's shoes, but she chose to ignore him even though she had a chance to be sure, and once again, he understood how grave the dispute between Mahiru and her parents.

Once again, she buried her head into Amane's chest, fawning about. "I see." Amane rely answered, cupped her knees and back, and put her on his lap.

He gently chuckled when she showed a shocked look, and kissed her on the forehead to console her. She quickly turned beetroot, and buried her face into his chest, hiding it.

She seed a little forceful compared to before, probably because she wanted to hide her embarrassnt, and it felt like a headbutt into his chest. She looked so adorable that Amane had to chuckle.

"...Well, I'm not you, and I can't say much to your family...I think it's best for to follow your wishes though, so I'll support your decision."

Amane was still an outsider. Of course, this was rely 'sothing happening now'.

He would never probe further into her family situation, and would only supporting her silently by the side as long as she wished for him not to go further.

Despite that, Amane decided to remain by her side. No matter her family situation, he wanted her.

If Mahiru said she wanted to flee her family, Amane was adamant about fulfilling it.

"Yes." so she nodded and seemingly muttered once she heard his words. He put his hand on her head.

"Relax, I'll steal you away if anything happens."

Amane muttered with a voice Mahiru could barely hear, and chuckled jokingly. Mahiru then abruptly lifted her face towards him, her face redder than before, and he played dumb as he ruffled her hair.
