// \{Tomoyo} "I guess for the time being I'll be busy."
<0002> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Both during the morning and after school."
<0003> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "There's a lot of things I have to do."
<0004> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Did you know that there are a lot of meetings in this school, \m{B}?"
<0005> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "A lot of students come there as committee members."
<0006> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Everyone seems to be full of spirit."
<0007> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "The moment these people gather really isn't all that overwhelming."
<0008> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What is overwhelming though is when they talk."
<0009> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Everyone's doing their best for the school."
<0010> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "We meet in this committee to discuss topics and decide what will happen from then on."
<0011> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "It's a bit difficult, but quite important."
<0012> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "That part's what's tough. Make one mistake, and you'd have to take responsibility."
<0013> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You can't make any mistakes."
<0014> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Why?"
<0015> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You don't have any background. That's just how I feel."
<0016> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You can't miss a step on your road anymore."
<0017> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You have to walk straight ahead."
<0018> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "To begin with, if only you weren't so wild..."
<0019> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It could have come to this a lot earlier."
<0020> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "A lot of people think highly of you, eager to see how you respond..."
<0021> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "At this point, your status should be outrageously high now."
<0022> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You're as close to that sort of person as it gets."
<0023> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "The one the people chose... was someone endowed with charisma since birth."
<0024> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's why, you can't falter anymore and have to walk straight ahead."
<0025> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You have to hold your head high..."
<0026> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "No... it's nothing like that for me."
<0027> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Besides..."
<0028> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "The way you're talking \m{B}... is kind of lonely."
<0029> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "It's as if you're saying... \wait{300}I should be walking alone."
<0030> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0031> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Why... why aren't you denying that?"
<0032>
// ... I'm different from you.
<0033>
// Me, who is always in the same place...
<0034>
// And Tomoyo, who walks towards that high place.
<0035>
// And the two of us are together like this.
<0036>
// How... sad this is.
<0037>
// Without a doubt, waiting through the days ahead are going to be painful.
<0038> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You're... with me, \m{B}, right?"
<0039> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah... I want to..."
<0040> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's all I'm saying..."
<0041>
// And for me... to let this continue on...
<0042> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Yeah... be with me. Always."
<0043>
// Being dragged down by an incompetent man...
<0044>
// Tomoyo... continues to believe in that.
<0045>
// Tomoyo
<0046>
// Being with me, there weren't a lot of students who called Tomoyo.
<0047> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "So you were here all this time?"
<0048> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What is it?"
<0049> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "It's about this morning... as always, another claim showed up."
<0050> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I see..."
<0051> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "For now, come with me."
<0052> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "No..."
<0053> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Hmm?"
<0054> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'll leave it to you."
<0055> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Ehh?"
<0056> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I won't say it again. I said I'm leaving it to you."
<0057> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "How can you joke at a time like this?!"
<0058> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Go."
<0059>
// The two of them look at me at the same time as I force my way in.
<0060> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Go, council president."
<0061> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What, \m{B}? Is that... sarcasm?"
<0062> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No, it's the truth."
<0063> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You're the council president. Is anything wrong with that?"
<0064> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "No... that's right..."
<0065> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "But, what about you...?"
<0066> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "This is not the time to talk carelessly with a guy, Sakagami." Riddle
<0067> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Y-yeah..."
<0068> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "\m{B}..."
<0069>
// The last face Tomoyo shows me as she leaves.
<0070>
// The wrinkles in her eyebrows... showed a painful face.
<0071> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "... sorry."
<0072> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Don't worry about it."
<0073> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "........."
<0074>
// The male student kept giving unpleasant eyes up until the end.
<0075>
// No matter how much time Tomoyo had, she'd cut it up so there'd be time for the two of us.
<0076>
// She always tried to make sure that I liked her...
<0077>
// For me to answer that takes a lot of time...
<0078>
// And then, gradually...
<0079>
// We were embraced by anxiety between the two of us.
<0080> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Aren't you busy?"
<0081> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'll be fine."
<0082> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "You shouldn't force yourself."
<0083> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What's that mean...?"
<0084> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "It's like you're saying you don't want us to meet..."
<0085> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "No one's saying that, you know."
<0086> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0087> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm sorry..."
<0088> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It's okay..."
<0089> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "........."
<0090> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Yo, you guys!"
<0091> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0092> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What, it's you, Sunohara..."
<0093> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Somehow it feels really boring around here."
<0094> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Maybe you're getting bored?"
<0095> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Really...?"
<0096> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Don't ask me."
<0097> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You don't have to deny it, you know."
<0098> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Having said that, I'm not doubting you."
<0099> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "It just feels like that all of a sudden."
<0100> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "No, I don't really feel that at all."
<0101> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I've always liked \m{B}."
<0102> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Going out with him is the same as liking him."
<0103> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0104>
// For her to say that in front of me... what is it exactly...?
<0105> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Well, he's an asshole after all!"
<0106> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "If I swapped places with him, you'd probably forget about that, no?"
<0107> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You better say that's a joke in 0.1 seconds. If not I'll kick you."
<0108> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "It's a jo..."\wait{100}
<0109> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Like I can say that!"
<0110> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Isn't that a challenge for you? Say it before I do." *
<0111> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "What a brutal person!"
<0112> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Anyways..."
<0113> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "In the end, you guys are well suited for each other."
<0114> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Well, let's go grab something to bite, I'm starved."
<0115> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "It's on me, okay? You'll feel a lot better."
<0116>
// Tomoyo and I exchange glances.
<0117> \{Sunohara} ""
// \{Sunohara} "Come on, walk, you guys."
<0118>
// As we stood still there, Sunohara pushes our backs.
<0119>
// The following week, I was called again by the teacher in charge of our year.
<0120>
// This time it was just me.
<0121> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "She has a future."
<0122> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "It's a very bright one."
<0123> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "She's different from you."
<0124> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "I'm not saying that you're not suited for her at all."
<0125> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "I'm just saying that so you understand what kind of student she is."
<0126>
// He's completely changed from before, speaking in a kind tone as to persuade me.
<0127> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "But, being with her is not good for her at all."
<0128> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "She's progressing on a different path."
<0129> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "That's all."
<0130>
// ... I already know that.
<0131>
// Even if you didn't tell me.
<0132>
// That thought repeats in my head many, many times...
<0133>
// Because I'm continuing to be with Tomoyo...
<0134> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "For some reason, I don't exactly know why she..."
<0135> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "Though, having said that, it's being quite rude to you..."
<0136> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "Exactly how is it that girl seems to like you?"
<0137> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "That's why I brought you here to have this discussion."
<0138> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0139> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "To begin with..."
<0140> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "What about you?"
<0141> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "Do you want to be with her?'
<0142> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0143>
// I nod lightly.
<0144> \{Giáo Viên} ""
// \{Teacher} "I see..."
<0145>
// He takes a deep breath, holding his chin with his hand.
<0146>
// And suddenly, it felt like everything around me had become a threat.
<0147>
// Everyone was holding Tomoyo up.
<0148>
// As a plague, I clung onto her legs.
<0149>
// Tomoyo was pulling me up with her hands.
<0150>
// But, because I was such a burden, it was impossible to do anything.
<0151>
// While I was at Sunohara's room during the night, Tomoyo gave me a phone call.
<0152>
// Probably about how we weren't able to be together yesterday and today.
<0153>
// Tomoyo first apologized about that.
<0154> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I really don't want this to fall apart."
<0155> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I know."
<0156> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "\m{B}..."
<0157> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "What are you angry about... please tell me."
<0158> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Huh?"
<0159> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I could see you've been angry all this time?"
<0160> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm not."
<0161> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "No, you are."
<0162> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Why do you think that?"
<0163> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Because... I feel like I've been pushed away."
<0164> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "That's your imagination."
<0165> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "We didn't... even kiss..."
<0166> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Is that all...?"
<0167> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "You didn't lose interest in me, did you...?"
<0168> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "That's why I'm saying if you're... really like that now..."
<0169> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Though I think... that's a bit too much..."
<0170>
// I wonder what kind of face Tomoyo had as she talked to me through the phone?
<0171>
// I couldn't imagine Tomoyo's face, complaining like this.
<0172> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Tell me, \m{B}... what's bothering you? Please tell me."
<0173>
// For Tomoyo to be this desperate... I must have changed.
<0174>
// She hasn't noticed.
<0175>
// But, that was... not her fault.
<0176> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It's not your fault."
<0177>
// That's why I only said that.
<0178> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Then, what's that... what's not my fault?"
<0179> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0180> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Please tell me, I'll support you."
<0181>
// She said that just for me.
<0182>
// Without a doubt, no matter what kind of problem it was, if Tomoyo were here she'd fight it.
<0183> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah... but, it's difficult to say."
<0184> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Why, at this time?"
<0185>
// Tomoyo's voice was bright, wondering if she should leave it be, since she knows it's not her fault.
<0186> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I'm your girlfriend, so open up and consult me."
<0187> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I've always been reliant on you."
<0188> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Yeah, I'm confident I won't lose to any man's girlfriend at all."
<0189> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "But, well, it's a bit embarrassing, so forget it."
<0190> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Why is it embarrassing?"
<0191> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Wait... somehow I think I know."
<0192> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "How?"
<0193> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I guess it really is my fault..."
<0194> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Huh?"
<0195> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Well you said it was difficult to say, and it was embarrassing, that's what it means, right?"
<0196>
// Though what was said was good enough to deceive her...
<0197> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "And I know we didn't kiss either..."
<0198> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "And then you're sulking..."
<0199>
// She understands it by herself.
<0200> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I guess you really are a lech, \m{B}."
<0201>
// ... She was completely off.
<0202> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I suppose I should think about that a little."
<0203>
// I'm sure she's thinking... that I'm not happy about not having kissed her...
<0204>
// She's probably scorning herself, doing that.
<0205>
// If I deny it, she'll probably try to pry out another reason, so I'll let her continue on...
<0206> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "However though, I'm glad I got to talk with you, \m{B}."
<0207> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Same here."
<0208> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I think you and I are a good match, \m{B}."
<0209> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah, I guess."
<0210> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Yup, I definitely feel that way."
<0211> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "That's why..."
<0212> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "I want to feel confident."
<0213> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0214> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Yeah..."
<0215> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Let's both do that."
<0216> \{Tomoyo} ""
// \{Tomoyo} "Yup!"
<0217>
// The next day was Saturday, as the afternoon meant the end of classes.
<0218>
// I'm at the bottom of the hill.
<0219>
// I promised to wait for her here.
<0220>
// I patiently waited for her to come down.
<0221>
// The number of students coming home wore thin now.
<0222> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Hey, you."
<0223>
// One of them talks to me all of a sudden.
<0224>
// A familiar face...
<0225>
// The one who knew Tomoyo... probably someone from the council.
<0226> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Where's Sakagami?"
<0227>
// And then, I remember the tone of voice he shared now.
<0228>
// We met a long while back.
<0229>
// Yeah, when I was suspended, this was the guy who talked to me at the bottom of the hill.
<0230> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "As always, you don't seem to be reserved towards your seniors."
<0231> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "I told you not to be so picky."
<0232> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I'm just surprised that your attitude hasn't changed since you entered the council."
<0233> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "I'm not really confident that there are people who can change like that."
<0234> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I guess so..."
<0235> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "So, where's Sakagami?"
<0236> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Dunno."
<0237> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "You sure?"
<0238> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0239>
// I remain silent, with just my eyes acknowledging that.
<0240 \{Nam Sinh} "">
// \{Male Student} "But, I'd have thought you two would be together from here on out, no?"
<0241> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "I dunno."
<0242> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "You're standing in a place like this, aren't you?"
<0243> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Probably thinking of nothing more than her."
<0244> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0245> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "It's alright. You don't have to answer."
<0246> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "But in return, let me wait here as well."
<0247> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "Don't."
<0248> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Why?"
<0249> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "It feels disgusting to wait in the same place with a guy."
<0250> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Well, don't say that."
<0251>
// The man does as he pleases, getting in the way and standing beside me.
<0252> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Today there was a bit of a mess, you know?"
<0253>
// He looked ahead, saying that.
<0254> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Because Sakagami disappeared, a lot of problems came up."
<0255> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Everyone held a discussion about what sort of policy to implement."*
<0256> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student}"But, the council president wasn't around so we couldn't start anything."
<0257> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Even now, the situation's getting worse and worse."
<0258> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "It will probably end up becoming Sakagami's fault."
<0259> \{\m{B}} ""
// \{\m{B}} "........."
<0260> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "It's quite regrettable since she's so popular."
<0261> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "If we began a meeting with someone who isn't around to hear it, no one will hear anything."
<0262> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Unfortunately it seems she also have things she wants."
<0263> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "More accurately, she's benefiting from everyone's loss."
<0264> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "And, not caring, everyone gets the short end of the stick as a result." *
<0265> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "I'm sure no one can see her being like this, I'm sure."
<0266> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "That's her charm."
<0267> \{Nam Sinh} ""
// \{Male Student} "Everyone likes her."
<0268> \{Nam Sinh} ""

<0271> \{Nam Sinh} ""
