Kumo blinked,
his expression indicating how stunned he was.

...Oops.

Maybe I shouldn't have been so loud.

The abnormality of my sudden outburst started to sink in.

And I began to feel self-conscious about my behavior.

"Sorry for that."

I apologized quickly to him.

At my words,

the blank look he wore from before gradually shifted back into a smile.

"It's okay." He responded.

Thank goodness.
It was just one person.
If there were others around at the time,
they might not have been so forgiving. 

Feeling comforted by his soft reaction, 

I explained my situation to him.
