“What do we do now~”
Neither people nor things. There are no people or things. Shinobu asked while walking along the country road where only nature spreads casually.
“Are you going to find Daiki kun, who’s supposed to be here~?”
“No…..it’s been 10 years since then. I’m sure Daiki has already left.”
The life of Daiki that I know. It was a story in this empty countryside. He lived, worked, lived, and rotted away forty years from now. But that’s just the future I know. When the past changes, the future changes. What kind of life did Daiki, who was left behind at school that day, lead? I have no way of knowing that.
“That’s right ! Why don’t you ask the agent where Daiki is~?”
“Agent only knows what she knows. They’re not omniscient or omnipotent. Well, she can at least predict. She can’t be relied on in this area.”
“……Bu~”
I just answered what was asked. But for some reason, Shinobu stood still and puffed her cheeks.
“….What’s the matter?”
“Kouki kun, you seem to really like Agent chan~….”
“Of course I do. I’m her friend.”
“That’s not what I mean~….I’m your girlfriend, Kouki kun ! Don’t talk about other girls like you’re the one who understands them best……”
“Don’t worry. My likes for Shinobu and for agent is different.”
“It’s not that~……Uu~!”
I walked the road to the distant station while lightly brushing aside Shinobu who tapped me on the back. ……Well, it’s really far. I’ll have the agent teleport me again……
“Ah, Agent chan may not be good, but maybe your parents know where Daiki kun is !?”
“No, I just cut ties with them a few minutes ago……”
“But you want to see Daiki kun, right? Even if the detective agency didn’t know where he was…I think you should do what you want to do.”
“…Don’t worry about that too.”
This time I will stop him. Shinobu immediately noticed it and I turned around one step ahead of her.
“Whoa.”
Gently and strongly embraced her body.
“W-what’s wrong….!? Kouki kun, how unusual……”
“If I want to take revenge on Daiki, I won’t be here right now. I’m here because I found something that’s more important than winning. So…don’t worry.”
Good thing no one was watching. We exchanged kisses without words.
I’m happy. That’s right. Just doing this is enough for me. That’s why I don’t want anything more. I don’t need anything else. Just being together like this with the person I love is all I need……
“…..Kouki kun?”
A voice reached my ears as I was enjoying the time so much that I didn’t even need to say a word. It was a familiar voice, but not the same one. It was a very unpleasant voice.
“….Saki.”
In the past, in the present, and even in other world lines. This woman is always trying to block my future.
