My best friend, who I trusted with my crush, started dating him.
The rumors I heard in the classroom after school pierced my chest like sharp needles. Hayato Sano, the boy I've had a crush on forever, and Aira Takahashi, the best friend I trusted more than anyone, have started dating. Aira always listened to my worries with a smile. She encouraged me. She was supposed to be cheering me on. But the two I saw behind the school building looked so happy. The moment I saw Aira's triumphant smirk, my world came crashing down.
