Henry
The next day arrived quickly as the sun's ray meet my face. I won't be at school the whole day since they second match will be at the opponent's home court this time. I... can I keep avoiding Gumi?
Megumi"Kou...?"I doubted
MegumiI chased after Kou as he was about to leave the school... I grabbed his uniform while panting, "Kou, let's watch Yui's match today."
YuiAfter a long and hard game. Our team won the five sets match and fort the first time manages to play at the semi-finals where the strongest schools gather. The semi-finals will be held at a bigger gymnasium after our exams and the school field trip.
YuiSoon, the bottles of soju just kept coming as Henry and Kou keep glaring at each other, Megumi's drinking so much that she seems to handle. I'm stuck with making sure trouble doesn't ensue as I grilled my nice piece of plain beef.
MegumiI sighed loudly as they left and looked at the night sky still on Kou's back. He stood still and teased, "They already left, aren't you going to get off?"
KouI got ready to go to school earlier than usual feeling a little embarrassed by my new hair. It kind of feels weird seeing my hair dyed back to black. I even left my earrings at home. I look like an entirely different person.
MegumiI can't believe that Kou's here and in his school uniform. I was rea
HenryWhat does it feel like to be too late this time? It stings like hell. Kou's words echoed inside my head but all I could do was stand and walk behind him as he carry Megumi. Kou was here first, in fact, he's always been.
Kou The climate's getting warmer as the sun's at its peak... summer's coming... the season of summer's almost here... This spring, I had a lot of regr
Henry The next morning, Gumi was unexpectedly absent today... maybe, she got sick?... or just woke up late?...for the period and lessons, I was physically present but mentally absent... I couldn't stop worrying and thinking about Gumi...
KouI immediately went towards the laboratory Henry said and there I saw Megumi along with some famous junior who's blushing beside her. I grabbed Megumi and hugged her from behind.
HenryI was surprised to see Gumi. I knew for certain that no one else would be here but there she was. I immediately sat up and moved away from her. Just as Gumi tries to stand up and leave, I grabbed her hands and said, "Stay."
MegumiJust when I thought my heart could not sank any lower... it just did. I didn't mean to see it, I wanted to look away but I just couldn't. Seeing Yui and Henry kiss in front of me was the last straw.
KouI walked Megumi back to her house and went to ride the train. I went directly to my part time job where my co-workers joked around, "Oh, back so early? Are you here for extra more hours to buy your girlfriend a gift?"
MegumiWe all sighed as soon as we begin. This is so awkward but Yui tries her best to lead our group. She really is reliable. She disseminates the task effectively and says that we have to submit a draft by tomorrow morning and work on it as a group again tomorrow.
YuiMegumi comes back inside the classroom and awkwardly sits beside me. I'm still pissed off not entirely because Henry ended up liking her but because I genuinely thought of her as my friend.
Megumi I woke up and got ready for school. I don't think I really have the energy to go to school but still, I got up earlier than usual because I wouldn't want to bump into Henry so early in the morning.
