“If it were me, I’d definitely get in touch!”

"That's the other person's fault, isn't it?"

I was about to say, "I was in the wrong, right?" when he cut me off.

When I looked over at Kaji-kun, he was looking at me with a slightly grumpy expression.

Come to think of it, whenever I talked to Kaji-kun about romance advice or complaints, he never said anything that blamed me...

"Of course he'd worry. He's the person you like, after all."

"If it were me, I'd definitely reach out!"

I wondered why he was more upset about it than I was, and that thought made me smile a little.

Even though he's younger than me, I think one of Kaji-kun's best qualities is how he bluntly says what's on his mind like this.
