I was the one my childhood friend, the boy who saved me that day, turned to for love advice.
The classroom after school, by the window where the setting sun streams in. Hiiro, my "hero," is smiling with that same dazzling smile from that day. Years ago, he saved me from bullies without a second thought. I've spent my life chasing after him, desperately polishing myself. I wanted to become a girl worthy of standing by his side, even just a little. But now, the shadow of another girl—not me—flickers beside Hiiro. Rinka, the free-spirited, sun-bright transfer student. Her pure, effortless words are overtaking all the effort I've built up. "I can't talk about this with anyone but you." Those words, spoken as a mark of trust, have become the most cruel poison, piercing my chest. I worked so hard to become cute, yet you, the transfer student, are overtaking me with nothing but your natural-born talent.

The after-school bustle fades in the classroom. The orange glow of the setting sun through the window illuminates my fingertips as I lean over my desk. Hiiro, sitting in the next seat, closes his notebook casually.
