♠ It had turned into a troublesome situation. That message had come last night. Recently, it had become a routine to exchange casual chatter with Ayano before going to sleep. Things like how that TV program was interesting, or how the stray cat she spotted on the street was cute, or simply sending each other meaningless stickers. Then, out of the blue, she uploaded a photo. 【I got this from Sayo-chan! She said it’s a birthday present!】 Together with a sticker of a happy dog, she had…- 92.0 K • Ongoing
I was summoned by my father. Born as the eldest son of a marquis family, it has been more than ten years, and I felt my chest pound with anticipation, thinking that at last, the time had come. I walked through the familiar halls of Ortenatris Castle. Thinking about what lay ahead, my steps naturally grew lighter. Passing by the rear garden with its fountain, I proceeded along the western corridor, ascended the grand staircase from the spacious entrance hall adorned with a large stained glass…- 142.3 K • Ongoing
- ♠ At the station, Ayano had joined up, carrying several paper bags as if she was returning from shopping. They faced each other, but for some reason it felt awkward.『It’s about time』, Kyousuke hurried toward the ticket gate and boarded the train straight away. With the day, time, and all the conditions for congestion perfectly in place, there was no chance of getting a seat. ‘…T-too close…!’ Pushed by the crowd and forced toward the edge, Kyousuke stood with his back against the…

- ♠ After that, with Sayo as my tour guide, we went around to various shops and she told me about the things Ayano likes. Along the way, we also bought the chocolate we had been looking for, leaving only Sayo’s gift to be chosen. “What are you going to give her as a present, Shijima-san?” “Cosmetics. I’m planning to get her a lipstick.” “Cosmetics means makeup, right? Toujou said I shouldn’t give makeup as a present though.” “Kotaro-kun didn’t research properly and…

- ♠ The time was one o’clock in the afternoon. The town I got off at, four stations away from the nearest one, was bustling with people coming and going, especially since it was Sunday. The meeting place with Sayo-san was near the entrance of the biggest department store around here. I already felt like I was about to get sick from the crowd, but I somehow endured it and walked through the throng. 【Sayo: Have you arrived?】 Bzzzt. The smartphone I had stuffed into my pocket vibrated, and…

- ♠ “Like I said, what does this have to do with you? I’m asking you!! The furious voice, unleashed like a breaking bamboo, made the air inside the classroom tingle. The one shouting was Chisa. “Don’t act like a goody two-shoes!” Kotarou followed up with another yell. During fifth period, Kyousuke had completely fallen asleep. Even when homeroom after school began, no one had woken him up and so he found himself in the middle of afterschool hours. When he raised his face, just like…

- In a trembling voice, I said, “I’ll… figure something out.” “Aoki, you don’t have to do anything.” Being told that made me feel… miserable. After thinking for a bit, I took out my phone. I called Soyama. “Soyama… sorry.” “What now?” “I want to apologize.” When I said that, both Kasuga and Naruse looked surprised. “That doesn’t feel sincere at all.” “Wait a second.” I put some distance between myself and the two of them and…

- While I was recuperating, basically staying quietly at home, my energy gradually started to return in a strange way and I began going to the hospital again. Before long, I got bored of shutting myself in and started going out. Even if I wasn’t going to school, I began wandering outside the house. I could no longer see points and the glitching numbers had disappeared too. I had completely returned to normal. Is it really okay to be this normal? Just because I was back to normal didn’t mean…

- Chapter 8 、v When I woke up in the morning, my body felt unbearably heavy. I didn’t have even a shred of motivation. Dragging myself, I went down to the dining table downstairs. I was practically crawling, so my family looked surprised. “Sorry” I said in a gloomy voice. “I can’t go to school.” My parents didn’t lecture me. It was the second time. And just like that, I ended up taking some time off from school due to『feeling unwell.』 As I sat blankly in my…

- ¥+ I thought if I stopped taking the pills, things would go back to normal but that didn’t happen at all. I still couldn’t see the points. If anything, my headaches got worse. Maybe it was because I suddenly threw the pills away on my own judgment. Feeling fed up, I headed to school, walking along the usual route. The closer I got to the school gate, the more students there were. I wondered how everyone managed this. Waking up at a fixed time, attending classes that may or may not have any…
