Lately, it feels like the time I spend with Hinata-kun has increased a little.

It's not like I asked for it, nor did we make any special promises. And yet, from some point on, he's been naturally coming to visit my cottage.

At first, I thought he was just visiting because he was bored.

But seeing his face every day, I start to wonder if it might have a slightly special meaning after all.

Of course, it wouldn't be good for someone like me to go ahead and expect such things on my own.

Because there's no way a person like me could ever be someone special to anyone.

Even so, just Hinata-kun calling my name or sitting next to me so casually makes me feel strangely happy.

...Hehe, it really is strange.

To think that I'd wish for these ordinary times to continue.
