“I’m kind of bummed.”
Winter break of my second year in high school.
Next year I will be busy with exams, so this year I decided to go out somewhere with Runa.
With this in mind, I asked her out on a date.
But the day before, she told me she had something urgent to do, so now I’m left without a date.
My name is Yanagi Sora.
I’m a lonely guy who can’t participate in Christmas Eve, an event that is a paradise for those who have a girlfriend, even though I have one.
“I’m just feeling so empty thinking about this~”
In fact, there was nothing to do on Christmas, when there was supposed to be something to do.
Well, I guess it can’t be helped if it’s urgent, but come to think of it, I didn’t ask her what kind of urgent thing she had to do.
“What exactly are the urgent things that can be done at Christmas?”
Remedial or something like that would be impossible with Runa’s grades, and I don’t think she was doing any club activities.
No, no, no, there was no way that Runa would cheat on me.
“When I’m at home, I just think about strange things, so I think I’ll go out.”
Let’s just kind of walk around the place where we were originally supposed to go on a date.
I was walking around for no reason in particular, but maybe because it was Christmas, I saw a lot of couples.
I was a little bit painful as the plan had been cancelled.
“Yeah, let’s go home. I’m really feeling empty.”
I see couples walking on the street and realize that there is no one next to me, which makes me feel like crying.
I’m really pathetic.
“Huh…..?”
No, no, no, I must have seen it wrong.
Because she said she had something urgent to do, but was it really that urgent?
Why I she in a hotel district?
Why I she arm-in-arm with Satoru in the first place?
“Hey, why are you two here?”
I found myself running up to them and asking them these questions.
The scene was so mysterious that I could hardly believe it was real.
No, was this a prank or something?
“…Sora.”
Runa’s face twitched annoyingly when she noticed me.
Why are you making that face?
“Why would Satoru walk into a place like this holding hands with Runa?”
I asked Satoru.
This guy has been my best friend since elementary school and we’ve always been together.
I even asked him for advice on how to go out with Runa.
Why would this guy go into a hotel district holding hands with Runa on Christmas?
I’m getting kind of dizzy.
“Why? You really don’t get it, do you? There’s only one thing that a man and a woman do when they go into a hotel district on Christmas, right?”
Satoru stares at me with a look of heartfelt wonder.
How can he look at me like that?
This guy must know that Runa and I are dating.
“Wait a minute ! Runa is my girlfriend. Hey Runa. What’s this urgent thing you were talking about?
“Haa, if you found out, there’s no point in hiding it anymore. I like Satoru kun. Honestly, I’m not interested in Sora anymore, so could you please break up with me?”
My eyes went completely dark.
In other words, it was as if there was a gaping hole in my chest.
“That seems to be the case. My bad.”
Satoru said this with his mouth, but his face was smiling.
Satoru looked as if he was about to burst out laughing, then he hugged Runa’s shoulder and started walking toward the hotel area again.
“Uwaaaaaaaaaa.”
What did I do wrong?
I can’t even ask that now
I lost my best friend and my girlfriend on Christmas.
I was in despair.
“Why, why?”
There was nothing I could do but cower and cry.
I hated myself the most for being so helpless.
