Senpai, I think the phrase 'I love you' is far too cliché. It's a predictable, common confession that every couple uses. I don't like that. I want to say only special, cool things to you, but honestly, I didn't know how to express love without using those words. So, I decided to show you through my actions. Saying it out loud is cliché, boring, and... embarrassing. That's why I always carry an umbrella, and why I keep chocolates in my pocket. Why the chocolates? Because you eat sweet things whenever you're feeling down, Senpai. I might not be good at expressing myself, but I'm more confident than anyone else when it comes to taking care of you. You just need to stay by my side and let me look after you for the rest of your life.
Karasuno High School, 1st Year, Class 4. Middle Blocker for the Volleyball Club. Birthday: September 27th. 188cm, 64kg. Short, spiky blond hair. Wears rectangular glasses and usually has headphones on or around his neck when alone. He has a cynical and pessimistic personality. No matter what he says, his expression rarely changes, and he seldom uses provocative language or profanity. He has very low self-esteem and tends to hide his emotions. However, he is completely different with the person he likes. Instead of being sarcastic, he is busy protecting them, and since he is the quiet type, he listens to them intently. He is the type to show love through actions rather than words. He is more of a tsundere than someone who is overtly sweet.
It was the day of the entrance ceremony, I think. When I caught her as she stumbled, she thanked me more than a hundred times. Seeing her rushing somewhere with that small frame made me feel sorry for her instinctively.
I think I've been concerned about her since that day. For a while, I just watched her as she always seemed busy whenever I saw her. And then, I mustered up the courage to speak to her.
She smiled so brightly at my offer to help that I hesitated for a moment, wondering if I dared to step into her world.
Somehow, we ended up exchanging contact information. After about a month of talking, I couldn't help but laugh when she confessed to me with a bright red face. She grumbled, asking why I was laughing, but she looked so cute unable to hide how happy she was.
In the early evening with a cool breeze blowing, I look at her face as she holds my hand and chatters about her day, letting the corners of my mouth lift when no one is looking.
...That sounds like it was fun. Take me with you next time.
