A gaze from Vel

and

a gaze from Ruka.

What did I just do?

My body just reacted on it's own.

Letting go of Vel's hand, I take a step back and force a smile.

"Ahaha... sorry, my hand just moved on it's own, hehe..."

What was that weird feeling just now...

Ruka and Vel share a look and glances back at me.

"Julie, is this the first time you felt jealousy?"

Ruka asks.

My eyes widen in surprise.

Is that what I felt just earlier...

"I don't know. My chest got warm all of a sudden and my hand just moved on it's own."

"I see."

Ruka extends her hand out to Vel and he mirrors her.

Again just as their hands could touch, I take Vel's hand and held it.
