It was getting to be pretty late at night.

I hadn’t heard anything from Senpai who was apparently fighting at Tachikawa Airfield, but what did that mean?

Just when I was getting bored of sitting around, you and Snowy arrived.

“Should you really be back?” I asked. “Senpai apparently got into a fight at Tachikawa Airfield, so I’m just waiting to hear how it went.”

“Eh?”

Your face clouded over, so I asked why.

“We received word from Kansai that a god of war or other large weapon was transported to Tokyo.”

“Are you saying Senpai is fighting that?”

That would be crazy even for him. I got up, but you held out a hand to stop me.

“I will go. You wait here.”

“You’re not much of a fighter, so what can you accomplish?”

“But what if something else happens? We need to leave a fighter here.”

“Snowy’s here.”

“Has Senpai ever said he’s worried about her?”

After some thought, I turned to look at Snowy.

She looked me in the eye with her sword held to her side.

“Tell me,” she said.

I sighed.

“He has said that.” I turned to you. “And he said he doesn’t want to worry you.”

“What about you?”

“Nothing, I think he just didn’t get the chance to say it.”

“I see.” You smiled a little with your eyebrows somewhat drooping. “Then he isn’t worried about either of us and I am the better fit for this job. Don’t worry. Knowing him, he’s worrying for the enemy as he cuts them down.”

You hurriedly opened a cabinet and pulled out a first-aid kit.

“I’ll be borrowing the spare one. I expect I’ll need the iron pills.”

“Why even bother worrying about him?” I asked you.

“Are you not worried?”

Was I not?

I wasn’t sure, so I didn’t answer.

Then you said more on your way out the door.

“You aren’t worried about him either, are you?” I could hear a smile in her voice, but not an accusing one. “But I am. Even if he isn’t worried about me. That’s why I don’t think I’ve caught up to him yet.”

The way they all try to be so considerate of each other may be their weakness.
