'What is she doing here?! Why is she talking to me?!'
Although Sunny was panicking on the inside, none of the emotions reflected on his face. Armed with the extensive experience of deceit, manipulation, and facing terrifying Nightmare Creatures in melee, he kept a straight face, threw a dark look at Rain, and calmly said:
"I am not staring at anything. And who are you calling a brat, you brat? Respect your elders!"
The girl scoffed.
"What elders? You're obviously younger than me!"
Sunny opened his eyes wide in outrage.
'...Ouch.'
He knew that he looked younger than his age, but to be mistaken for a middle schooler… that was just too much!
It was getting dark, so maybe that was the reason for her mistake.
Rain, meanwhile, was not done speaking:
"And you were definitely staring at me, with a very nasty expression. I almost tripped! Didn't your parents teach you not to stare?"
Sunny opened his mouth, then closed it again. Then opened it once more.
