A suffocating silence spread through the air.
Kagura Hikaru, wordlessly, touched his girlfriend's hand, his eyes seeming to blame her.
For her part, Kohinata Motoyo could only offer a helpless smile and whisper, ".....sorry, I didn't want to hide it from you."
"Why?" Ayakoji Chiyoko blurted out unexpectedly.
Yes, why, why so sudden.
