Report 23

Plot
As An asks Kazuomi if Rena is his girlfriend, Arata notes he has been wondering the same thing. While Kazuomi denies there being nothing of the sort going on between him and Rena, Arata and An are both quite sure that Rena at least has feelings for Kazuomi. An then points out that they even have matching earrings, and Kazuomi tells her and Arata how his brother coerced him to have his ear pierced for some reason apparently related to his job. His brother relented from also piercing his other ear as Kazuomi told him it hurt a lot, and he gave the other earring to Rena.

Kazuomi says he is certain there was no deeper meaning to it than that Rena just wanted to get a piercing. However Arata and An can hardly believe his obliviousness and feel sorry for Rena, and Kazuomi wonders how they got there from their intended topic of making plans for studying for the retests.
