<0000>
// May 5 (Monday)

<0001>
// I suddenly woke up.

<0002>
// Feels like I was dreaming.

<0003>
// Or rather, some remaining sensation tells me that I was dreaming.

<0004>
// I yawn as I look at the watch... it's just 7:00AM.

<0005>
// I definitely mustn't sleep for the second time today.

<0006> \{\m{B}} ()
// \{\m{B}} (In any case, I should get up.)

<0007>
// I crawled out of my bed.

<0008>
// I arrived at our meeting place fifteen minutes early.

<0009>
// Kotomi still hasn't arrived.

<0010>
// Will she come early or will she come exactly in time? I was thinking which of the two, but I'm not particularly worried about it.

<0011>
// I lean against a wall and wait.

<0012> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0013>
// It's quiet...

<0014>
// The birds are chirping high in the sky.

<0015>
// The clouds are floating separately...

<0016>
// I casually check around to see if Kyou is hiding.

<0017> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "She already did it yesterday, so she'll probably arrive doing a tsukkomi on us today as well."

<0018> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0019> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Who the hell is gonna do a tsukkomi on you!? You pervert!"

<0020> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "..............."

<0021>
// I tried to retaliate using the same tsukkomi line that she would probably say, but I get no response.

<0022> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "All right, it's settled then. Today's gonna be a fun date. This would be a genuine date with only two people."

<0023> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No matter what happens, I definitely won't let a tsukkomi enter."

<0024> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's impossible!"

<0025> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "..............."

<0026>
// There was no response, even when I did a quick boke gag.

<0027>
// This is making me a little sad in some way.

<0028>
// It was tiring doing a comedy act alone, not to mention Kotomi would probably be gazing and spacing out as she walks about.

<0029>
// She should be arriving in about five minutes.

<0030>
// I put my hand in my pocket and wait for her familiar footsteps.

<0031>
// I still think I can lure her out with something though. *

<0032>
// I felt a small pain piercing my heart every time I think of that. Guess I'm still not used to this feeling.

<0033>
// I stare at my shadow as the bright sun shines down on me.

<0034>
// Suddenly, I remembered.

<0035>
// About that gentleman I met the other day.

<0036>
// "\bIf you have the chance, please tell her this..."\b

<0037>
// "\bThat we still regret about what happened that day, even now."\u

<0038>
// I wonder what did he mean by that?

<0039>
// Should I tell Kotomi about that?

<0040>
// I don't know the full details, but it seems like there's nothing that can be done even if those words were to come from my mouth.

<0041> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Whew..."

<0042>
// I sigh as I realized that I ended up destroying my mood, even though I finally became excited.

<0043>
// I shook my head and closed my eyes.

<0044>
// But even still, our conversation at that time continues...

<0045>
// "\bAre you her lover?"\u

<0046>
// "\bNot right now, but... I'm thinking how nice it would be to be like that."\u

<0047>
// .........

<0048> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Guaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!!"\shake{0}

<0049>
// I was writhing with embarrassment.

<0050> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "........."

<0051>
// And just in front, observing that state of mine is Kotomi.

<0052> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Huntington's Chorea?"

<0053> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Wrong! And just what kind of disease is that?!"

<0054> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "A type of a nerve disease. It is characterized by rapid involuntary movements of the face and body limbs for no apparent reason..."

<0055> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You don't need to explain. Hand me your things, I'll carry them."

<0056>
// I take the cloth bag that is in Kotomi's hand.

<0057>
// It's in a different shape from yesterday. It's a flat box as I look over it, and there's a stainless thermos flask inside.

<0058>
// Kotomi was still looking at me with worried eyes.

<0059> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun, are you really not ill?"

<0060> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I was just thinking about some things."

<0061> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Thinking?"

<0062>
// That embarrassing phrase surfaces again as she stares right at me.

<0063>
// "\bNot right now, but... I'm thinking how nice it would be to be like that."\u

<0064>
// That's right... I haven't confessed to Kotomi yet.

<0065>
// Yesterday would have been officially the perfect time to do that, and these feelings would have all been settled then.

<0066> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0067>
// I wonder if it'd be better if I'm the one going to confess?

<0068>
// I have a hunch that if I dragged this too long, something very bad would happen between Kotomi and I.

<0069>
// I think I should stop being only a mere friend in order to progress with Kotomi more than this.

<0070>
// Besides, if it's Kotomi, I think I'll be the only one disappointed, or she'll quickly say \bOK\u  to me.

<0071>
// But it also feels like I'll only get a "\b???"\u  response.

<0072>
// There's a possibility that something tasty will happen like she'll end up blushing bright red and be bothered...

<0073>
// There's also a potential that she'll cast aside her unknown serious boke character.

<0074>
// The result is really hard to read...

<0075>
// Confess 

<0076>
// Don't confess 

<0077> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hey, Kotomi."」

<0078> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "?"

<0079> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "If by chance, I'm..."

<0080>
// I stare at Kotomi.

<0081> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm..."

<0082>
// Kotomi's eyes flicker.

<0083>
// She looks at me and opens her soft lips a little.

<0084> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun is...?"

<0085>
// She tilts her head and waits for me to continue.

<0086> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm..."

<0087> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0088> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "If I'm...\p actually a robot inside, what would you do?"

<0089>
// The confession I was planning ended up being a joke, with me being the heavy boke drunkard.

<0090> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "........."

<0091>
// My partner looks at me with a familiar silence and serious look.

<0092> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Do you fire things like missiles?"

<0093> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nope, I'm absolutely not loaded with any weapons."

<0094> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Do you have a self-destruct device installed?"

<0095> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It's sad to say that I also don't have that."

<0096> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I see..."

<0097>
// She seems a bit disappointed.

<0098> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "If so..."

<0099> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Can I disassemble you?"

<0100> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Then I'll have you re-assemble me to the way I was then, please."

<0101> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "How complicated is \m{B}-kun's framework?"

<0102> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I also haven't tried disassembling myself, so I don't know."

<0103> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Is it much simpler than an alarm clock?"

<0104> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0105>
// I try to compare in my mind, my own blueprint and an alarm clock.

<0106> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "... it's probably a good match."

<0107> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "By the way, you disassembled an alarm clock when you were a kid, didn't you?"

<0108> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0109> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Did the reassembly go all right?"

<0110> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Well..."

<0111> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I ended up leaving one screw behind."

<0112>
// That seemed so typical to throw in a tsukkomi for.

<0113> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "To tell the truth, when I managed to put it back, it worked well, but when the bell went on, it didn't stop..."

<0114> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You probably got scolded for that."

<0115> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Well..."

<0116> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0117>
// She quietly nods after thinking for a little bit.

<0118> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I was told that the clock has an important duty to do, so I shouldn't bother it."

<0119> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I was also told that only if the clock suddenly got broken that I should disassemble it and ask it to teach me its structure."

<0120> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Somehow... that's a strange way to get scolded."

<0121> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Well..."

<0122> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But... that's a good experience."

<0123> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0124>
// She showed a small but happy smile.

<0125> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun, umm... well..."

<0126> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "What is it?"

<0127> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "If by chance, I..."

<0128>
// And like that, she stares straight at me.

<0129>
// For some reason, her cheeks suddenly blushed as I wait for her response.

<0130> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "No, it's nothing..."

<0131>
// She smiled once again with a hint of shyness.

<0132>
// And for some reason, our topic is changing to something embarrassing. 

<0133>
// Let's not...う。

<0134>
// There's definitely a more appropriate time and place for this sort of thing.

<0135>
// Besides...

<0136>
// I don't have the confidence right now to say I'm the right person for Kotomi.

<0137> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Perhaps, you are ill...?"

<0138> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I told you already that you're wrong."

<0139> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "??"

<0140>
// I'll change the topic.

<0141> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "By the way, it seems you're wearing the same dress as yesterday." 

<0142> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Well... \m{B}-kun, do you hate this dress?"

<0143>
// She looks down on her own dress and asks in a low voice.

<0144> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nope, I think it suits you well. I also said that yesterday too though."

<0145> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I'm glad."

<0146>
// She becomes relieved.

<0147> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I washed this last night at home."

<0148> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Because I decided that I would go with this dress if I'll be together with \m{B}-kun."

<0149> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I see..."

<0150>
// Her choice of clothing is quite mature, yet it doesn't quite fit with her personality.

<0151>
// That's right, I think Kyou also said something before like, "\bYou're unexpectedly adult-like."\u

<0152>
// And something like, "\bHer breasts are surprisingly big too..."\u

<0153> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0154>
// I shake my head to drive away those worldly thoughts.

<0155> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "?"

<0156> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Well then, where should we go today?"

<0157> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Umm, well..."

<0158> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "There's this really wonderful place."

<0159> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I'm sure \m{B}-kun also loves that place."

<0160> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That place... could it be that I also know of it?"

<0161> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0162> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun also knows that place."

<0163> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "And where is that place?"

<0164> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Well..."

<0165> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's the school's library."

<0166>
// She says so with a bit of pride.

<0167> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."

<0168>
// Somehow, I managed to suppress the urge to do a double tsukkomi hand attack at her chest and the back of her head.

<0169>
// If she doesn't even respond to a boke gag that got recycled, then there's no doubt that Kyou is sleeping at her house.

<0170> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "?"

<0171> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I understand, so let's go now."

<0172> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup. Let's go, \m{B}-kun."

<0173>
// Kotomi stands next to me.

<0174>
// We started walking while our shoulders touched each other.

<0175>
// The entire school doesn't have the presence of people... completely opposite of what it is usually.

<0176>
// Even students with club activities aren't here because of the holidays.

<0177>
// The sunlight streams silently through the leaves onto the pathway.

<0178>
// I had a bad premonition as we got near the school building.

<0179>
// The door to the shoe rack needs a proper key.

<0180> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You don't have the key to enter the school building, right?"

<0181> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup. The only one I'm holding is the key to the library."

<0182> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's exclusively for my use."

<0183> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Because I'm an Honorary Librarian."

<0184> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm fine with that, but I wonder why...?"

<0185>
// I couldn't suggest going to a different place now that we were here.

<0186>
// And then, Kotomi started walking briskly.

<0187> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Over here..."

<0188>
// With her usual quick pace, she heads by the edge of the school building and turns the corner.*

<0189> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "We wouldn't get anything even if we go that way..."

<0190>
// We suddenly stopped under a hallway window as I immediately followed her.

<0191> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "We can get in from here."

<0192>
// She jolts and loosens the window frame without any words.

<0193>
// The window suddenly opened with a "\bthud"\u  sound.

<0194> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "You see?"

<0195>
// Somehow, the lock here seems to be left broken.

<0196> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I see... this is your hobby, right?"

<0197> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "?"

<0198> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Never mind, I'll go first then."

<0199>
// I give back the things to Kotomi for a while and put my hands on the window frame.

<0200> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Once you are inside, you should immediately take off your shoes because they will scold you."

<0201> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nope, that's not the reason why we're going to get scolded."

<0202> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "??"

<0203> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Could it be, because we're not wearing our uniforms?"

<0204> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's not it either."

<0205> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "???"

<0206> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "There are countless reasons, so I'll go on ahead."

<0207>
// There really wasn't anyone inside the school except Kotomi and me.

<0208>
// The atmosphere is different compared to when I'm skipping and strolling around during lesson.

<0209>
// It's like looking at a backstage that's slightly more out of this world than usual ... a strange feeling.

<0210>
// Kotomi just walks in without thinking about such things.

<0211> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "We have arrived."

<0212>
// She took out the familiar key in her possession and opened the sliding door of the library.

<0213>
// The quiet and deserted room where you can only see books.

<0214>
// Even though I came here last Friday, it appears as if the state of this room has completely changed.

<0215>
// Is it because of the closed window that the scent of the dust and paper is stronger than usual?

<0216>
// Furthermore...

<0217> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Was the library this huge...?"

<0218> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0219>
// She nods for no reason.

<0220>
// Kotomi probably always saw the library like this before she met me.

<0221> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Umph."

<0222>
// Kotomi advances to the usual spot and immediately takes off her shoes and socks.

<0223> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Umph... ah, ah, ah..."

<0224>
// And as always, she jumps up in circle as if she's going to collapse.

<0225> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Whew..."

<0226>
// After that, she walks to the edge of the wall and leaves open the east side window.

<0227>
// I could feel the cold air disappearing as the light swayed along with the curtain.

<0228> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "First is cleaning."

<0229>
// She brings out a mop from the tool's locker.

<0230>
// She diligently wipes the floor many, many times with her slender arm.

<0231>
// Kotomi, black-clothed and barefooted amongst the countless number of old books.

<0232>
// Just as I thought, it was somehow fresh and nostalgic.

<0233>
// The last thing she took out was the cushion, which she placed on the floor.

<0234> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Preparation is now complete."

<0235>
// As Kotomi says that, the library becomes a pretty snug-fit place.

<0236> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun, are you hungry?"

<0237> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's right. I woke up early today, so I'm a little bit hungry."

<0238> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It would be a little early, but do you want to eat lunch?"

<0239> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's fine with me, but I haven't bought anything yet. I guess I should have bought something outside..."

<0240>
// Kotomi looks straight at me, and it seems she's about to say something.

<0241> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "This might not fill you up \m{B}-kun, but..."

<0242>
// She brought forward the clothed bag containing the boxed lunch which she had placed on the desk.

<0243> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I want to eat this together."

<0244>
// She takes out a flat paper square box from inside it.

<0245>
// I'd been wondering about it when I was holding it.

<0246> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Is that some sort of pizza?"

<0247>
// Kotomi slowly shakes her head.

<0248> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's an apple pie."

<0249> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's my first time making it, so I don't know if I did it well..."

<0250>
// She opens the paper box.

<0251>
// A bittersweet scent suddenly escapes.

<0252>
// It's a round pie with fox-colored burn marks here and there.

<0253>
// It's luxuriously thick and round, and there are lattice shape decorations attached to it.

<0254>
// It seems there's a starch syrup on the surface, and it doesn't look different from those sold in stores.

<0255> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "This is genuine, huh..."

<0256> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I think the way I baked it went well."

<0257> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I used Jonathan apples, and the butter I used is also salt free."

<0258> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I varnished it with apricot jam that's been ripened by rum for the finishing touch."

<0259>
// She rummages inside her cloth bag as she explains it to me wholeheartedly.

<0260>
// Two paper plates. A plastic knife, forks, and paper cups...

<0261>
// She lines up all the necessary things on the library reading desk.

<0262>
// I also pull in a nearby chair and seat myself in front of the readied dining table.

<0263> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "And also, it's the first time I tried using tea leaves in black tea."

<0264> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "The tea leaves I used are Lady Grey."

<0265>
// She's finally going to cut down the pie after pouring in the aroma of the expensive black tea into a cup.

<0266> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I'll be dividing this right now."

<0267>
// She puts the knife in the big pie and cuts it.

<0268>
// She first halved the pie, then she halved it again, and again...

<0269>
// It seems it's her first time earnestly cutting like this, making me break a smile.

<0270>
// The big semi-circular pie divided into four little pieces.

<0271>
// She then put the slices onto the two plates.

<0272> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Let's share."

<0273>
// She presents to me the larger portion after she said that.

<0274> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, thanks."

<0275> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Let's all eat."

<0276> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Let's eat."

<0277>
// Reciting that, I stab the fork into the pie.

<0278>
// I try stuffing all of the apple into my mouth.

<0279>
// I wonder if she baked this this morning; it's still slightly warm, and the sweetness is just right.

<0280>
// Kotomi was gazing at me as I tasted it.

<0281> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Is this really your first time making this...?"

<0282> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0283> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Ummm... is it not... delicious?"

<0284> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Nope, I say it's unbelievably good."

<0285> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "???"

<0286>
// The machine's malfunctioning again.

<0287>
// It seems she's having a hard time replying when she's really tense, so I guess I have to rephrase what I just said before.

<0288> \{\m{B}} ""

<0583>
// She took out something from the bottom of the cloth bag while I kept looking at her.*

<0584>
// It seems like an old book.

<0585>
// She rubs the front cover to clean it, but the title is still illegible.

<0586> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Umm... well... I want \m{B}-kun to hold this."

<0587>
// She gently places it in front of me.

<0588> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But... isn't this important to you?"

<0589>
// I have a hunch even though I haven't looked inside.

<0590>
// I'm sure she probably has read this hundreds of times too.

<0591> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I already memorized everything that's written in there."

<0592>
// She smiles as if embarrassed.

<0593> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But you see, I won't be able to read this book..."

<0594>
// As I hesitate on accepting it, Kotomi said something surprising.

<0595> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I don't want you to read it."

<0596> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Eh?"

<0597> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I don't want you to read it."

<0598>
// The word piles up making me confused.

<0599> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's all right to just hold into it."

<0600> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But..."

<0601> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "........."

<0602>
// Kotomi's eyes flicker.

<0603>
// That feeling came back again.

<0604>
// Her matureness and the child in her which doesn't know anything.

<0605>
// And the Kotomi that I don't know which is hidden between them...

<0606> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "All right then."

<0607>
// I took the book from her.

<0608>
// I suddenly noticed that its skin has the feeling of being left for months or years.

<0609> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Hey, Kotomi. The truth is..."

<0610>
// ... you really want to read this together with me, right?

<0611>
// I end up swallowing those words.

<0612>
// Kotomi slowly stands up.

<0613>
// She advances her slender feet to the west side window, and there, she slowly turns to face me.

<0614> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I've decided."

<0615> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "That I won't come here as much as possible."

<0616> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Because even if I'm here, it wouldn't be as fun as before."

<0617> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's much more fun to be with everyone."

<0618> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "It's much more fun to be with \m{B}-kun."

<0619> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "That's why, I'll be with everyone."

<0620> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "I'll take lessons properly, listen carefully to the teacher, get along with everyone in the class..."

<0621> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "The truth is, I've known for a long time that this is what I should do..."

<0622>
// She wasn't saying those to me. *

<0623>
// The bookshelves look like historic ruins inside the backlight.

<0624>
// The tens of thousand of book bindings that came to watch Kotomi even now.*

<0625>
// It was as if they were carefully listening to Kotomi's voice.

<0626>
// Kotomi bowed at them in the end.

<0627> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "\m{B}-kun, let's go home."

<0628>
// She then gave me a smile.

<0629> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You should properly lock the door."

<0630> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup..."

<0631>
// There was a small metallic sound that echoed inside Kotomi's purse.*

<0632>
// We then left the library, and I'll be back to having a short nap during tomorrow's lunch break.

<0633> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Everything will be all right with this."

<0634>
// She puts away her treasured key that has her own name.

<0635>
// I'm sure the chance she'll be using it will decrease.

<0636>
// As for that, Kotomi should be getting more friends.

<0637>
// We were crouching in the twilight, at the hallway where there's no one.

<0638>
// If I compare it to a book, it probably means a single chapter had ended.

<0639>
// I wonder what's waiting ahead...?

<0640> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Let's go."

<0641> \{Kotomi} ""
// \{Kotomi} "Yup."

<0642>
// Kotomi unconsciously held on to my palm that was stretching out to her.

<0643>
// I realized that this is the first time we've held hands together.
