Well... this was... this was... interesting...

Why was Nadeshiko so close? Okay, she had... basically agreed to eat lunch with her, but... she was just so close! Himawari squirmed in her seat awkwardly and flushed, looking down at the table for several moments. Close proximity with others was not often something that the swimmer experienced, and so... Nadeshiko felt just about way too incredibly close to her. She shifted awkwardly, before finally managing to open her mouth.

"Y-you're... a little close..."

She thought they'd be sitting across from one another at least. But this close was really pretty embarrassing.

... And she had so much... curry. It was like she'd raided a truck full of it. Was she even going to be able to eat all that without getting sick? There was so much food there... and all of it was so spicy. But... Himawari wasn't worried about Nadeshiko getting sick or anything! Well... okay, she was, but only because eating until you got sick was really stupid.

About to point this, Himawari paused when she realized what Nadeshiko was asking about.

"E-e-ehhhhh?!" the brunette flushed deeply. That was... that was really strange to ask about so suddenly! "Why would you just ask out of no-where?! I... I..."

And then... she remembered how upset Nadeshiko had gotten earlier... Damn it, she still felt bad about that!

"F-fine..."
