Chapter 75 Let's Move On

Let’s Move On

Kanzaki Momoka’s PoV

Ahh… It’s a bit colder than usual today.

It’s been getting colder lately, hasn’t it? I think I’ll put some clothes on tomorrow before waiting for Hiiragi-kun.

Yes, yes.

Time for… Hiiragi-kun and the others will be here soon, so I have to be firm.

I’ve been lazy lately.

The train arrives, and among the adults and students from the same school who come through the gates one by one, I go to Hiiragi-kun and bow to him.

“Good morning, Hiiragi-kun. And… sorry.”

“Good morning.”

The stares around me don’t bother me now, and no one around me cares either, because I’m like this “as usual”.

Finally the hardest part, I don’t want to look, but I have to, so I look into Hiiragi-kun’s eyes for a bit before I leave the scene.

Hiiragi-kun’s sister, Yoka-san, looked at me from behind, but I pretended not to notice and ran to the school.

It was a few weeks after I apologized to Hiiragi-kun that I realized I was running away to escape Hiiragi-kun’s gaze, not Yoka-san’s.

It was painful to realize so clearly that I had broken Hiiragi-kun’s heart.

I know people who broke Hiiragi-kun before me, but I still broke Hiiragi-kun in the end.

Come to think of it, I heard that Yuka-chan has something to say today.

Yuka-chan is my friend from high school, and I consider her one of my best friends.

When I arrived at school and entered the classroom, I found that Yuka-chan had come to school earlier than usual.

Yuka-chan usually comes at the last minute.

“Oh, Momoka. Good morning.”

“Good morning, Yuka-chan.”

When Yuka-chan saw me, she ran over with a smile.

“Hey, Momoka. Come here for a minute.”

“Okay.”

I followed Yuka-chan and went to a quiet place. Maybe she doesn’t want to talk to people too much.

Maybe Yuka-chan found someone she likes?

“Momoka, did you come to apologize to Hiiragi again today?”

“…Yes, I did. But this is my own way of making amends to Hiiragi-kun.”

Yuka-chan bridged the gap between us.

“Momoka. What I want to talk about is, let’s have a proper discussion with Hiiragi-kun.”

“B-but I don’t think Hiiragi-kun wants to discuss it with me, so it’s okay.”

“Don’t worry, I already told Hiiragi-kun and he agreed to discuss it with Momoka. The rest is up to Momoka.”

“What?”

Can I talk to Hiiragi-kun?

…but.

“But Hiiragi-kun and I…”

“Momoka.”

Yuka-chan grabbed my shoulder and looked at me seriously.

“Momoka. That’s enough. It’s true that Momoka did something bad. But let’s stop it now. Let’s move on.”

“Move on…”

Let’s move on,

Can I forget about Hiiragi-kun and move on?

I don’t know, I’m confused.

But if I could tell him the details of what happened, even just a little…

“I understand. Thank you, Yuka-chan.”

“Yes!! Yes.”

Yuka-chan smiled.
