    “……!”

    There was no pitch in his voice. He pressed me to answer, “Hm? Tell me honestly,” as I only bit my lip.

    “…… Honestly, it’s little……. No. It’s quite uncomfortable.”

    “What’s making you so uncomfortable?”

    One of Hugo’s eyebrows twitched up. His mood, which had been relaxed recently, suddenly became sharp and incisive.

    I swallowed dryly, telling myself not to be afraid.

    If I just walked away from here, I would be stuck with him for a semester.

    He asked cautiously, but the nuance was that he didn’t understand. At least, that’s what it sounded to my ears.

    But what can I do about that?

    Emotions welled up. Before I knew it, my face was crumpled and my speech quickened.

    “Yes, I care. I want to go to school quietly as if I didn’t exist and then graduate. But I can’t do that when you’re around…….”

    My words trailed off and glanced at Hugo’s face.

    I thought he would be looking down at me with an expressionless face like before, but when I saw him again, his expression was completely different from what I expected.

    He wasn’t looking at me. He was looking over my shoulder, staring into the air.

    I could see that he was gritting his teeth, and his jaw muscles were tense.

    His throat bobbed as if swallowing his emotions.

    The discomfort I felt at the sight of him faded. Instead, regret and guilt suddenly rose and stabbed my heart.

    At my hesitant call, Hugo sighed with one hand covering his eyes.

    Then he said in a cracked voice:

    “I’m sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable. I just wanted to be close to you and I overdid it. I’ll admit it.”

    He turned around. Before I could stop him, he walked away down the hallway, his steps filled with impatience.

    As I pondered Hugo’s words in the empty hallway, the timetable in my hand crumpled up.

    His face, clearly wounded, lingered in my thoughts, and I couldn’t take a step.

    I stood there for quite some time, and it wasn’t until my legs started to hurt that I managed to get out of the hallway.

    It was true that I wanted to distance myself from him, but not this way.

    His eyes, narrowed as if they had been hurt, and his clenched mouth caught my eye.

    I think it was a bit harsh to ask him to act like a stranger.

    I wanted to apologize and explain that while I did suggest we distance ourselves, it wasn’t his fault.

    But despite my resolve, Hugo stopped appearing in front of me since that day.

    After parting ways in front of the teacher’s office, Hugo stopped attending class altogether.

    I couldn’t tell if he had changed his timetable back or if he simply wasn’t coming to school at all.

    Judging from the stories I heard about him here and there; it didn’t seem like he had entirely stopped showing up at school.

    At other times, I would have thought it and was being overly self-conscious.

    But something he said before we parted made me think otherwise.

    After the morning class, Melissa and I were on our way to lunch.

    Melissa, who had been chatting with me, pointed somewhere with her eyes shining as if she had found something.

    I turned my head in the direction she was pointing and saw a tall, chiseled boy in the distance.

    He was leaning against the wall, listening to some boys talking.

    He must have spotted me too, as our eyes met.

    His expressionless face contorted slightly, and he left, leaving the boys behind.

    Melissa, next to me, also tilted her head as if she felt something wrong and glanced back and forth between the direction Hugo had gone and my face.

    Hugo and I ran into each other from time to time. And every time we did, he would frown and avoid me first.

    After this happened a few times, the rumors surrounding Hugo and I died down.

    As soon as I stepped out of the building to go home, raindrops began to fall.

    When I looked up, I saw a drizzle from an otherwise dry sky.

    There was no parking space this morning, so I parked my car in the fourth parking lot, the farthest from the building.

    The rain wasn’t too heavy, so instead of going to the cabinet, I shielded my head with the file I was holding and ran to the parking lot.

    Water splashed out from shallow puddles. Not only my shoes but also the hem of my pants got wet – it was uncomfortable.
