Volume 2 Chapter 0.1 - Prologue
Prologue
Shimizu-san’s Evening
“That guy…”
Lying on my bed in my room, I mumbled to myself.
I was reflecting on the events during today’s lunch break.
It was when I had rejected a confession from a senpai I didn’t know.
I was in a tight spot, but Hondō appeared and helped me without showing any fear of the senpai.
“He said he cares about me and that he can’t take his eyes off me…”
Not just that, Hondō uttered several other things that I can’t easily forget.
『Maybe more than you think, Shimizu-san, I care about you.』 (Volume 1 Epilogue)
『Yeah, you’re kind yet clumsy, and that makes you an irresistible presence to me. I think as long as we’re together, I’ll always find myself looking at Shimizu-san without even realizing it.』 (Volume 1 Chapter 9.4)
I press my pillow onto my face and roll around on the bed, attempting to somehow deal with this overwhelming emotion that I can’t put into words.
