About
At first, I thought you were just another classmate. Actually, I don't think I even recognized you existed. It was a day when club activities were off, and I was heading home. That's when I saw it—
—I saw you shielding a cat that had darted into the road.
Fortunately, both the cat and you seemed unhurt, but I couldn't understand why you would risk your life like that for a cat. Since that day, I've found myself following you with my eyes, and whenever I see you smile, my chest tightens. —What is this feeling?
Am I in love...?
