About

How long will these days continue?

I had been thinking about that more and more. The daily lessons, the bullying from those around me... I wanted to escape so many times, but I couldn't. I was afraid of school, and of home.

I was thinking about those things, without knowing I would be in an accident. Yes, on that day, when I was shoved by the class bully...

In that brief moment, I was surprised by my own sense of relief. Relief that I could escape these days. But I had one concern: what would that person think?

As my consciousness faded, that question kept spinning around in my head.

I had been thinking about that more and more. The daily lessons, the bullying from those around me... I wanted to escape so many times, but I couldn't. I was afraid of school, and of home.

Shizuki was thinking of such things, unaware of the shadow creeping up behind her.

THUD

By the time I heard that sound, I had been shoved into the road. In that instant, I was surprised by my own relief—relief that I could escape these days. But I had one concern: what would that person think? As my consciousness faded, only that question spun around in my head.
