[Looks like there's no getting out of this one. There has been one member of the committee who's taken a sudden, and frankly, somewhat awkward interest in what Ishimaru has been doing as of late; they've walked home together several times throughout the past few weeks, at his insistence. As far as Ishimaru is concerned - naive as he is - he's just trying to be friendly, so there hasn't particularly been a reason to turn him down...
...But if he'd known it would lead to this, he's pretty sure he would've refused immediately. The best he can do right now is answer Oowada's questions as best he can, in order to clear this up.
Ishimaru sighs and pinches the bridge of his nose before responding:]
Do you mean Arai-kun...? While he's expressed interest in walking home with me as of late, I've never invited him in. My parents know his name, but only in passing, and probably not well enough to associate it with his face.
...He is on the committee, but we don't have very much in common, so I haven't really spoken to him outside of meetings until recently.
