10th of June (Wednesday)

The reason I never fully mention my morning way to school in my diary is simply because it is a never-changing scenery, offering nothing out of interest that any reader, basically me, could benefit from. In other words, if I mention my way to school like I do now, then it means that something stimulated my memories to the level of where I consider the incident important enough to write it down.

—As you might be guessing, today such an event had occurred during my way to school.

Generally, my methods on going to school consists of two basic variants. Walking, or going by bike. Walking distance from home to Suisei High isn’t exactly long, so I can still take my time on the way, but when I have work right after school, I tend to use the bike. There exist exceptions however, for example when the weather is bad, and I decide to walk.

When there’s a typhoon warning, snowy days, rainy days, or just the weather forecast saying that it’ll rain, I don’t force myself, and go by foot. There was a time when I chose to go by bike despite it having been raining for hours, which led me to become sick the next day. I won’t make the same mistake twice. With this determination in mind, I don’t rely on my bike, and always keep an umbrella with me on rainy days.

Today’s weather forecast stated that the chance of rain was at a confident 60%, and beneath the cloudy sky, I was walking on fast feet, when my view stopped at a single point. In the midst of people waiting at the intersection’s red light, glittering blonde hair shot right to my eye—Ayase-san. I could tell from her back even.

She had earphones in, as the cord reached down into her clothes. She might have been listening to music through the smartphone in her pocket. She had a similar look during P.E. class, so maybe she just likes music? I guess all living beings called gals like listening to music. They’re like a different race from me, I had no way of knowing. All I was certain of is that she surely wouldn’t be listening to anime or western songs.

For a second, I thought of calling out to her, but I immediately buried that thought. The reason we leave the house at different times is to ensure that no weird rumours about our relationship would spread at school. It was to ensure our normal lives still before the official remarriage of our parents. That’s why I decided to abide by our rules, and not call out to her on our way to school, where other students might be able to spot us.

However, the traffic light turned green. The people didn’t move, and I stood still as well. Only Ayase-san started to walk forward.

“Ayase-san!”

“Eh?”

The sound of the engines reffing up completely vanished from my head, as I completely forgot about the deal we had. I couldn’t allow myself to be slow.
