"Little Astr's friend? If they're the same age, that's normal."
In Charlotte's memory, Astrid didn't seem to have any friends with a significant age difference. Being in the prime of her youth, it wasn't strange for her innocent heart to yearn for a romantic and beautiful love.
However, she also remembered that Astrid's social circle was mostly composed of the same sex, and it seemed hard to find any close male friends. So where did this one come from?
Hearing Charlotte's calm voice, Astrid gently moved her legs. Her face felt as if it were touching a soft, cool piece of butter, an incredibly comfortable sensation.
"She's the same age, but the situation is a bit special."
"She's also a girl."
At these words, Charlotte's expression shifted slightly, a hint of surprise and confusion appearing in her dark eyes.
"A... girl?"
Her voice deepened slightly, and the leg resting against Astrid's tightened a little.
