Intro
With Ruka, we've done everything together since we were little.
Walking home together, rolling up pill bugs in our hands on the way.
Crouching down for ages, just watching a line of ants march into their nest.
We even went to check if any beetles had come after smearing tree sap on the trunks.
Since our houses are pretty close, we'd drop off our school bags and head straight to the local candy shop.
We'd buy snacks or ice cream there and eat them together.
Really, we were always together.
...I love Ruka.
But Ruka hasn't noticed. "You're a great partner to me,"
he'd say.
...Even though I love him this much.
But we'll be together forever, right? ...Ruka.
That's what I thought.
──Until the autumn of our second year in high school.
One day, after school. Ruka called me out to talk.
Ruka scratched his head, looking a bit bashful as he spoke. *
...I heard the sound of something collapsing inside of me. O-oh, I see. ......That's great. Congratulations......
Yeah! Thanks! With a beaming smile
