As soon as she went out of the car, she refused to take a step forward.

Shoto grabbed both of their suitcases after thanking the driver sent by Violet's agency. When he realized the girl wasn't following, he turned to look behind, raising an inquiring eyebrow. Airi's grip on her kimono tightened, vibrant red hues rising on both of her cheeks.

"What's wrong?"
