Chapter 106
After her father left, Nakajima Reina, with the help of a nurse, lay down.
Though it wasn’t yet the designated sleep time and she wasn’t sleepy, she still had the nurse turn off the overhead light.
A bright light went out, and a few dim night lights turned on; darkness would never fully occupy this room.
In this twilight, she recalled the life snippets her father had just shared about the boy named Minami Yuuki.
These snippets were like pieces of a puzzle.
Over the past month, she had collected countless such pieces.
Every night, in this dim light, she would pick up these shining puzzle pieces, play with them in her mind, and piece together an image of the boy.
As she held each piece in her hand, her mind conjured images of the boy yawning, strolling, daydreaming in class, and talking to girls.
With each new piece, his image became more vivid and brought her more joy.
