Arc-1 Chapter-2: A Preemptive Strike Over The Phone?

However, Koyuki immediately cleared her throat.
"Don't bother asking me to send you to.....for now. It's close to the station and I'm going home with my sister after club activities." (小雪)
"Oh, so you have a sister." (Naoya)
"Yes, I do. She's a good girl and a well-rounded person. I just got a call that she left school at..." (小雪)
As I pulled out my phone, Koyuki stopped my hand immediately. Then she slowly compared the two, alternating between her phone and the one Naoya was holding.
Naoya's head twitched, but...Koyuki just smiled at him. She looked like a child who had come up with a prank.
"That''s right, Sasahara-kun. Let's exchange contact information." (小雪)
"Eh, is that okay?" (Naoya)
"Of course. I'd prefer to get it out of the way. So hurry up." (小雪)
At Koyuki's urging, Naoya operated his phone. Shortly after, an entry with the name "Shirogane Koyuki" appeared in my contact list. The icon was a picture of a cat. It was a pure white cat with sharp eyes that looked a bit like Koyuki.
Exchange contact information with the girl you like. It was a very exciting event, but Naoya couldn't help but tilt his head.
"I'm happy to do it, but....., what's the catch?" (Naoya)
"Fufum It's simple. (小雪)
Koyuki grinned and held up her phone.
"If it's just text, your weird skills won't come through. In other words, even if I get embarrassed, it won't be obvious at all... and I won't fall into your pace!" (小雪)
"Oh, I see. That's a good idea." (Naoya)
"Of course. I'm not the one who's always getting hurt." (小雪)
Koyuki smiled with pride.
It is true that when Naoya detects a person's lies, he refers to visual information such as gaze and body language, and auditory information such as breathing rhythm and accent. It is difficult to gauge the other person's true intentions when communicating through a cell phone because the information is limited.
Tata...¹
(She admitted that she get embarrassed....Shirogane-San)
I guess she let her guard down and it just popped out of her mouth.
It seems that her grades at school are always top-notch, but ...... she is quite the klutz.
"See you later, Sasahara-kun. I'll have plenty of time to mess with you tomorrow!" (小雪)
"Oh, yeah. Take care. Have a good day." (Naoya)
She didn't even notice the lukewarm look in Naoya's eyes.
Koyuki went straight to the station, dashing with the wind on her shoulders.
{Sorry! Id didn't realize that this is a continuation of the previous chapter's recollection...}

Moving from the station's ticket gate, they walked towards the school.
Perhaps because it was still early in the morning, there were only a few people walking along the street.
In the early spring sunshine, Koyuki coughed and cleared her throat.
"Hmm. It's a shame that the advance has failed, but... the counterattack starts here." (小雪)
She looked straight into Naoya's face and smiled devilishly.
What she held up to me was her phone.
"For starters, how did it go, Sasahara-kun? Did you get a kick out of my special message last night?" (小雪)
"...hm?" (Naoya)
Naoya couldn't help but be puzzled.
"What's with that reaction? I sent you all kinds of stuff last night." (小雪)
"Oh, yeah, yeah. I did see your name pop up several times." (Naoya)
Stopping, Naoya also took up his phone. The messages from Koyuki immediately filled the screen, and I looked through them again carefully.
She was right, there had been several messages sent last night. A brief invitation to "come to school with me tomorrow morning" and...
"What am I supposed to be excited about with a picture of a kitty and food...?" (Naoya)
"What, you're not?!" (小雪)
Koyuki's eyes widened in surprise.
I wonder what kind of sexuality she thinks I have.
Naoya was at a loss for words, but Koyuki stared at her phone with a serious face.
"That's funny.... my sister told me that the safest and most stable photo on social media is the one with the cat and food..." (小雪 of truth)
"Why is your sister giving you advice like a cartoonist afraid of online abuse....?" (Naoya)
I was very curious to know what kind of girl she was.
Anyway, this solved one mystery.
When a picture of a white cat with bad eyesight and a picture of a normal family dinner were sent to him without any warning, Naoya was indeed puzzled as he could not read her intentions.
It seems that she was trying to communicate with him in her own way.
(Hmmm...but if that's the case, I might be nervous.)
The clumsiness of her hard work was irresistibly endearing. Regardless of the direction of the story, it is hard not to like her when she shows us such a lovable side.
But Koyuki had no way of noticing that. He smiled at her as she continued to groan, and pointed to the screen of his phone.
"This cat is unique and cute. By the way, is it a pet of Shirogane's family?" (Naoya)
"Mm-hmm. Yes, she is. She's only one year old and she's also very sweet." (小雪)
"By the way, what's her name?" (Naoya)
"It's 'Sunagimo'." (小雪)
"Oh that's good name! It's....unique..." (Naoya)
"Hmmm, you're right. The whole family calls her "Su-chan". She's so cute when she's napping, too. I'll show it to you, Sasahara-kun." (小雪)
"O-oh" (Naoya)
Koyuki was in a good mood as she operated her smartphone, showing me various pictures of her cat.
Thanks to this, the distance between us became very close. The sweet smell of the girl tickles my nostrils and I can see every single long eyelash.
(She's so cute...) {TL: Not the cat but Koyuki in case your dense...}
There was no way he could get the picture of the cat into his head, and Naoya was just admiring her profile.
Then.
"Ah, It's Naoya!" (???)
"Oh..." (Naoya(?))
A girl's cheerful voice sounded from behind them.
