A week had passed since Sumika san threw the ring into the river, and I was lying on the bed in my room, thinking about the day the ring was thrown away.
That day when the ring was thrown away, we all went into the river to look for the ring, but in the end we could not find it.
I cannot forgive Sumika san for throwing away my precious ring in any way, and I hope she will at least apologize to me.
However, I could not forgive her for insulting and endangering everyone more than for throwing away the ring.
Because of Sumika san, everyone could have caught a cold or even drowned.
She should never have put others in danger because of her selfishness, and I hope she will never do something like that again.
It is true that I can’t forgive her for putting everyone in danger any more than I can forgive her for throwing the ring away, but that doesn’t mean I’m not shocked that she threw the ring away and lost it.
That ring was the ring that my father gave to my mother when he asked her to marry him, and it was an important ring.
Even so, what is gone will never come back, so I told Eita san let it go.
Otherwise, Eita san would definitely try to go back into the river to look for the ring.
I gave him such a tight warning because I know that Eita san is too kind, but there is one thing I do not understand about this case.
That is why Eita san kept the engagement ring I gave him in his bag that day.
When the ring was thrown away, I couldn’t notice it because I was in a hurry that the ring might be lost, but if I think about it normally, there is no way Eita san would have kept the ring in his bag without any reason.
“Aaaaahhhhhh——! ! ! ! Why did you have the ring with you ! ! ! !”
I was rolling around on the bed, thinking about why Eita san had the ring.
The fact that he had the ring in his bag could only mean that he was trying to give me the ring.
If he tried to give me a ring, that means he tried to propose me !?
No, don’t rush yet, it’s too quick to propose.
Even if he does give me a ring, it would be reasonable to assume that he is not proposing, but confessing.
Eh, I would die of happiness if he confessed to me.
I probably had been attracted to Eita san when he saved me from being almost run over by a car, and it had been almost half a year since I fell in love with him.
I was extremely happy that the person I had feelings for for that long would confess to me.
With Eita san, who saved me without regard for his own life, I can imagine what life will be like after marriage, or even when we have children for that matter.
A person who would save me without regard for his own life, he must definitely be kind to his children as well.
Eita san and our child playing with each other, how sweet…..
—What am I thinking !?
It’s too soon to imagine not only being confessed to and going out with someone, but also getting married and having a child, no matter how much I want to……
Well, I guess that’s how much I like Eita san.
……Or rather, I’m the one who should be cool with it.
I was already in the mindset that he was going to confess to me now, but just because Eita san was going to give me a ring doesn’t mean it’s decided that he’s going to confess to me.
An engagement ring is a somewhat expensive thing, and he might have just brought it to return the ring to me, saying, [I’m just under pressure to have this thing and it’s just bothering me, so I’m going to give it back now.]
If that is the reason, he may have brought the ring to return it to me, saying that he fundamentally did not like me and [I can’t see a future for us to get married and live together, so I’m giving it back now]
There’s a good chance it’s the latter…….
In the first place, at the age of a high school student, it would be extremely annoying and pressuring to be given an engagement ring by a girl and then be told to give it to her someday and that too by the girl’s parents.
Given that, it would be more reasonable to think that he brought the ring just to return it to me, rather than to think that he brought it to me to confess his feelings to me……
“Haa……. I wonder which one it is…….”
In the end I thought about why Eita san had brought the ring all the way to bed and never found the answer.
◆◇
The next morning, I woke up, finished getting ready, and got into the car that Yuna san was driving.
In the end, I still don’t know why Eita san brought the ring, but it has already been a week since the ring disappeared, so I don’t want to think about it any more.
Even if I think about it further, I won’t get the answer.
Having made this decision, my smartphone vibrated in my bag and I looked at its screen.
It was Eita san who had sent me a message on LINE.
Eita [Sorry, I’m a little sick, I’m taking today off, so you don’t have to pick me up.]
“Ehh–“
Unwell…?
It is true that it is getting colder and there is a possibility of catching a cold, but Eita san, who has never had a cold since he’s with me, now catched a cold?
That’s what came to my mind when I thought…..
“……Don’t tell me.”
Then I called Eita san.
