Just as Exusiai was wondering when exactly her older sister had developed a different kind of interest in Mizuki, she felt something tugging at her foot. Yet when she looked down, she saw nothing.
(Mizuki's tentacles?)
Exusiai immediately realized what it was. Mizuki's tentacles tugged at her pant leg beneath the chair. Looking in that direction, she saw Mizuki standing by the door and waving at her. Clearly, he did not want anyone else to know.
"I'm going upstairs to get my communicator."
Mizuki immediately understood. His tentacles held the little bell on the door so it would not ring, then he gently opened the door and left the room without drawing anyone's attention.
Behind Penguin Logistics' base, Mizuki looked up and found his girlfriend already waiting for him at the window. Exusiai had even changed into casual clothes. Her zipper was partly undone, and beneath it she wore only a fitted tank top. Her figure, which was not particularly pronounced to begin with, had taken on a girlish charm with the help of the lining. Her smile held a trace of surprise and happiness, brimming with youthful energy. Mizuki always felt as if she were only seventeen or eighteen, and she saw her boyfriend the same way.
Mizuki held out his arms, and Exusiai practically climbed out the window and jumped down at the same time.
"Heave-ho~"
It was only the second floor, and Exusiai was not heavy. Mizuki caught her easily.
"Muah~"
She gently kissed her beloved's cheek, and Exusiai's smile grew even brighter. Like a little sun, that was what Mizuki liked most about her.
"I'm obviously your official girlfriend, so why does this feel like we're sneaking around for an affair?"
"Then do you want everyone to come along?"
"Of course not."
Exusiai rolled her eyes,
