Just as Yuuna was about to step out of the container, she paused, turning back with an amused smirk.
"Oh, before I go, I also asked Shizue to make something for me," she said, her tone laced with anticipation.
Shizue, still gripping her tablet, tapped a few commands onto the screen. A soft, mechanical hum filled the air, followed by the sudden appearance of a monitor on the wall just above the bed. Its glow bathed the room in a faint, eerie light, drawing everyone's attention.
On the screen, bold letters flashed into existence—"Love Link Meter."
Beneath the title, multiple meters were displayed, each one marked with a name. Hina. Yuuna. Nagisa. And even—Shizue.
Kouhei's name was there too.
The moment Shizue caught sight of her name, she went completely stiff. A visible shudder ran through her body before her entire face erupted into a deep, burning shade of red.
