Naturally, I happened to run into the confessor in question on campus.

“H-Hey,” Edamoto-san gave me a flustered greeting.

“Good morning,” I responded, a little bewildered.

Did she always seem like that?

“Good morning…” she awkwardly bowed her head to me, which also seemed different from the Edamoto-san I knew.

We stood close to the main gate, exposed to the summer sun as the confusion intensified.

“Wait, this isn’t how things normally go. Um, how do I normally act again…?”

Edamoto-san frowned, tilting her head and scrunching her face in thought.

“We can just go on like usual… Oh, I guess the issue is what that’s supposed to look like.”

As her concern deepened, I too was starting to lose sight of what our relationship had been like in the past. Then, I remembered too late that she had confessed to me when we last met. I had told her I would think about it, and I really had done just that, but I hadn’t come up with a response yet. But regardless of all that, we had to go on with our college lives.

Still, as we walked together, there was definitely a slight awkwardness between us.

“Sayaka-senpai, did you get home all right the other day?”

“Yes, I didn’t have any particular issues.”

I was a bit full of it, to be honest. In truth, I couldn’t actually say whether it went all right or not, because I didn’t remember the process of getting there.

After I got on the train and sat down, my consciousness had faded in and out. The scene around me would suddenly light up or go dark. As the train car jostled, I felt like I was drifting up and down between dreams and reality. Maybe this was what it meant to blackout?

I had become a stereotypical college student—as I berated myself, I felt someone watching me.

When our eyes met, Edamoto-san’s face steadily changed color as she looked up at me. It started from the middle of her cheeks, faint and warm.

A warmth different from the one of summer reached my eyes.

“What’s the matter?”

“The matter? I think I told you already. I blurted out the whole, entire matter.”

“Right.”

Hearing that directly, I felt like I was being dragged into the same state of mind as her.

“I was just thinking it’s pretty embarrassing to be in front of the person you like after you’ve laid your heart bare.”

“Right…”

That simple reason was probably related to why I hadn’t tried to meet with Touko much since graduating from high school. Although it was hard to face that fact head-on.

“Maybe it would be better if we don’t see each other until you have a response.”

“Right…”

I was so unsure how to reply that I kept repeating the same thing. But really, there wasn’t much else I could say.

Because I was still agonizing over it.

Agonizing over something wasn’t a no, at the very least. Even Miyako-san said so.

That’s right—I wasn’t saying no. I was just stopping to think and be cautious.

I already knew exactly what I was being cautious about. But that only made me want to take it even more seriously.
