Today, when the winter vacation would start tomorrow, I was looking out the window of my school and thinking about the ring that I could no longer throw into the river.

When the ring was thrown into the river by Sumika, I was more worried about Eita san than about the ring, and I thought that even if the ring was gone, it would be fine as long as Eita san was safe.

However, as time went by, I began to realize that the ring was gone, and it was starting to damage me wrinkly.

It was two years ago that my mother passed away, so there are many other mementos besides the ring.

Even so, that ring was the one that she treasured the most, the one that contained the memories of my mother and father, and nothing can replace that ring.

The realization that I have lost such an important thing has gradually come to me, and I feel as if there is a hole in my heart.

I still have to listen to the class seriously, but I can’t get what the teacher is saying into my head at all……

I will never get that ring back.

Eita san got sick because he went into the river to look for the ring, so he will never go into the river to look for it again.

Even if he did look for it, there is no way he would find a ring that small.

I feel bad for my mother and father for losing the ring, and I also feel sorry for Eita san.

I’m sure that Eita san would feel that it is his fault that the ring is gone.

If this was going to happen,I shouldn’t have given the ring to Eita san.

……No, it would not have been a mistake to give the ring to Eita san at that time.

At that time, I had a strong desire to encourage Eita san, above all, I wanted to use my time to give Eita san the ring.

“Haa……. I wonder if the ring will come back.”

I was muttering such a thing at a loud enough volume that the others could not hear me during class.

I’ve never been this depressed no matter how much I’ve been bullied in the past……

That’s when the notification on my phone rang and I looked at the screen to see a message from Eita san.

Eita [Are you free on the night of the 24th?]

24th……?

The night of the 24th is Christmas Eve, but if Eita san wants to spend Christmas Eve with me, does that mean that Eita san has that much feelings for me?

Of course I like Eita san, and I’m very happy to be able to spend Christmas Eve with him.

The shock of losing the ring that had been swirling around in my head was lessened by hearing from Eita san.

Eita san is amazing after all.

It was already unfair of him to contact me at such an opportune moment as if he had planned it.

And I replied after class, [I’m free.]

◇◆

On the night of the 24th, I called Kohime to a family restaurant. I arrived at the family restaurant 30 minutes before the meeting time and waited for her to come.

This family restaurant is the place where I was dumped by Sumika, and I have bitter memories of it, but it is also the place that gave me the chance to meet Kohime.

In such a hateful and important place, I had called her to tell her something important.

It goes without saying what I was going to tell her.

Don’t get upset at the last minute.

My relationship with Kohime is no longer that of just friends.

The time to move our relationship forward has come a long time ago.

Just as I was making up my mind to do so, I received a line from her.

Kohime [I’m sorry. I can’t see you today.]

“…Eh?”

When I saw her message, I couldn’t help but let out a yell.

Suddenly canceling the schedule 30 minutes before the meeting time is very unbelievable.

Also, she didn’t write down the reason why I couldn’t see him anymore, so I wonder what happened.

Just as I was thinking about this, I received a message from Taketsugu san, with whom I had exchanged contact information.

Taketsugu, [I heard that Yuna chan wasn’t at home when I went to pick up Kohime, do you know anything about it?]

Kohime is not at home !?

By the looks of things, Takatsugu san probably doesn’t know about the circumstances of Kohime’s absence from home, and I wonder what happened to her.

Anyway, let’s make a phone call.

So I called her, but she did not answer the phone.

I left the family restaurant and went to look for her without knowing where she was.
