Ooohhhhhh... turns out Nishino actually met MC back in middle school, no wonder she’s been so eager to get close to him in high school. Childhood sweethearts rekindled :meguu: I really hope there'll be a confession between them next chapter.

lol of course they've met before huh

If they confess it's likely to end at vol 3 I guess.. Though I kinda hope we'll get to see them more as a couple.

... Why does she have to have met him before? What does this add to the story? What, did she need some sort of serendipitous red string of fate connection of her own so that she doesn't lose to the other girl?

If she met him before like this, why isn't she more mindful of his boundaries in chapter 1? It read as endearing when we assumed she didn't know any better, but apparently she saw him whip out a bottle of disinfectant and go all germaphobe-wild on himself all the way back while they were in middle school and it just didn't register?

Please, please stop with the flashbacks. I can't remember a single instance of this manga where I thought the flashbacks added anything. All the romance was in the present. In fact, I strongly suspect you could cut every page with black space between the panels, including some full-length chapters, and lose nothing. Tsuzuri especially. She struggles so desperately to make her feelings known in the present it simply isn't necessary to show us her past directly. Her flashback chapters are all just rehashes of what even a mildly attentive reader already knew.

As for the flashback we just read... I'm no closer to an answer now than I was when I started writing this shit. Best I can tell the author is just stalling for time.

3 volumes would be a pretty typical run for a niche romcom like this. Shame if this is it, I'll never understand why writers would struggle with depicting a relationship instead of endless will-they-won't-they.
