A month has passed since I was invited to Kohime’s parents’ house and November has arrived, but about half of the students still believe the rumors spread by Sumika, and I’m still receiving cold stares at school.

Even so, I’m not depressed and have not stopped going to school because I have the reassuring presence of Kohime by my side.

Today, I went to school again and came home without worrying about the cold stares directed at me, and I was staring at a small box in my room.

On that day when I was invited by Taketsugu san, I ate dinner with him, greeted Chikage san, and had many tense and exhausting moments, but I feel as if I have grown even closer to Kohime’s family and even closer to her.

I was thinking that I could give her the contents of this small box that was now placed in front of me.

This engagement ring was an important ring that Taketsugu san had given to Chikage san, and it was not something that a little boy like me could keep in my possession indefinitely without making up my mind.

If I kept it for a long time, Kohime, Taketsugu san and Chikage san would distrust me.

In romantic comedies, the hero and heroine are often aware of their feelings for each other, but are afraid of ruining their relationship by telling each other how they feel, so they keep flirting with each other even though they are not in a relationship. I couldn’t let my relationship with Kohime turn into that.

So I made a decision.

Tomorrow, I will give her an engagement ring and tell her how I feel.

Of course, I didn’t decide to give the engagement ring to Kohime simply because I was in a hurry to get it to her.

It was only because I realized that my feelings had completely shifted from Sumika to Kohime and that I had fallen in love with her that I decided to give her the engagement ring and tell her how I felt about her.

Well, it’s not like I’m going to propose her.

Generally, giving an engagement ring would be a proposal, but in this case it was just a confession.

Of course, I would like to go out with her on the premise of marriage, but I understand that high school couples don’t always go on to get married.

And since there is a possibility that she would get impatient if I suddenly proposed to her, I would give her an engagement ring, but I would only tell her that I want her to go out with me, not to ask her to marry me.

Well, for my part, I would still confess my intention to marry her.

It was when Kohime wished me a happy birthday that I began to think that it might be okay to give her an engagement ring.

There’s nothing wrong with not knowing when my birthday is, and even if someone did find out about it, they shouldn’t have to go to the trouble of celebrating it as long as they pretend they didn’t hear about it, and everything would be over without incident.

And yet, not only did Kohime call me up and surprise me with a congratulatory gift, she even prepared a matching gift for me.

It was only natural that my liking for Kohime would increase even more.

Giving Kohime an engagement ring was not only for my own sake, but also to reassure Taketsugu an and Chikage san.

Well, in order to reassure them, I first have to get their approval for my confession.

That’s a pretty high hurdle, but I’m sure that Taketsugu san likes me, and I’ve already said hello to Chikage san, so I’m sure that Kohime’s impression of me isn’t low.

I’m completely prepared.

I will definitely give her the engagement ring tomorrow and tell her how I feel about her.

So, I picked up the small box containing the engagement ring that I had been staring at for a long time, put it in my school bag, and lay down on my bed waiting for tomorrow to come.

◇◆

“Break up with me.”

“…..Eh?”

Today, half a year has passed since I, Yoshino Sumika, and Takamiya senpai started dating, and today, Takamiya senpai and I were at a family restaurant together when we suddenly broke up.
