(No, no, don’t misunderstand ! That’s not possible…)

After all, Fujisaki told me she hates me.

Right now, I’m kind of…well, I’m probably just excited. She doesn’t seem like it at all, but maybe Fujisaki is actually looking forward to tomorrow’s sports festival. That’s why she’s so excited and said something she didn’t mean to say.

If that’s the case, then I’m lucky. The usual Fujisaki would have cursed me for an hour just for looking directly at her chest.

“Akito, what’s wrong? Your face is red.”

“Eh!? Oh, sorry…”

Damn…this is troublesome, it’s throwing me off balance.

I’ve known Fujisaki for over ten years, but I don’t think she’s ever said a single mean thing to me since kindergarten. By the time we entered elementary school, she was already being harsh only to me.

But today, there’s none of that.

In fact, she’s being really kind to me…this is dangerous. If this continues, I’ll fall for Fujisaki all over again.

“…Are you feeling okay? Do you want to take a break?”

“No, no, I’m fine. I’m really okay…” 

“Really? You don’t have a fever or anything?”  

Saying that, Fujisaki came closer to me.  

Once again, the distance between us closed. Looking at her well-proportioned face up close and the contours of her body visible through her sportswear, I hurriedly looked away.  

But then—tap.  

Fujisaki’s white, slender hand touched my forehead.

“Huh!? F-Fujisaki…?”

“…Yeah, you seem fine. Hehe, that’s good.”

Fujisaki smiled with relief and stepped away from me.

No, really…she’s just too cute.

And Fujisaki’s hands were so small. They were also smooth and soft. That’s what a girl’s hands feel like.

“So, Akito, can you continue?”  

“Eh? Oh, yeah…”  

I slapped my cheeks and focused on basketball.  

That’s right, calm down, me—Fujisaki just wants to practice for tomorrow. She must be enduring her feelings of hating me even now.

Still, the distance between us feels too close, but that’s probably just my imagination.

“Alright. Let’s go, Fujisaki.”

“Okay.”

This time, I get into my dribbling stance and start the offense.

I pull Fujisaki’s defense to the left, then immediately change direction and try to cut in from the right,

“—Crap.”

In the end…I couldn’t concentrate at all.

I completely messed up the dribble and tried to cover it up by forcing my body to move, but my feet got tangled up and I fell forward.

And of course, Fujisaki, who was defending, was right in front of me…

“―――Kyaa!?”

Thud. I accidentally collided with Fujisaki’s slender body.

We both fell backward onto the basketball court.

I was in a position where I had pushed Fujisaki down.

“!! I’m sorry, Fujisaki, are you hurt――”

As I tried to say that,

I noticed the sensation in my hand.

The blissful sensation of her soft skin.

“Hmm…hey, Akito. Your hand…”

Fujisaki’s delicate voice and her faintly flushed, delicate features.

We were so close we could feel each other’s breath, staring into each other’s eyes.

I couldn’t even comprehend what was happening, and a few seconds passed—then, suddenly, I realized.

“Ah—I-I’m sorry…! !”

I hurriedly jumped up and moved away from her body.  

But the sensation of Fujisaki’s chest still lingered in my hands. The first time I had ever touched a woman’s chest, it was softer than I had imagined…I wondered if it was really that pleasant to the touch.  

But—this wasn’t the time to be thinking about such things, was it?

This time, there was no way to talk my way out of it. I couldn’t even try.  

I had just done something that despicable to Fujisaki.  

“I’m really sorry, Fujisaki. But I didn’t do it on purpose…”  

“I know. Akito isn’t the kind of person who would do something like that.”  

But still.  

Fujisaki slowly stood up and smiled gently.  

Her flaxen hair, illuminated by the moonlight, looked like angel wings.  

“But…hehe. I was touched by a boy for the first time in my life.”  

“Ugh…I get it. I’ll turn myself in to the police…”

“Huh? What are you talking about? I’m not angry.”  

She smiled innocently.  

For some reason, Fujisaki was smiling innocently.  

“Because…if it’s Akito, I don’t mind.”  

Fujisaki’s beautiful eyes stared at me.  

—I felt as if my heart had been pierced by something.

Thump, thump. The pounding of my heart began to spread throughout my body.

“Um…Fujisaki…”

“Hm? What’s wrong, Akito?”

“Let’s go home today. If we stay out too late, it’ll interfere with tomorrow…”

I couldn’t take it anymore.

Talking to Fujisaki today, I felt like I was misunderstanding something.

Everything was supposed to be over.

“…Yeah, you’re right. Let’s go home.”

Fujisaki nodded sadly, then said,

“Hey, Akito. ……I want to walk home with you. Is that okay…?”

She looked up at me with cute, pleading eyes.

There was no way a mob student like me could refuse such a request from the most beautiful girl in school.

“Well, it’s just around the corner anyway. Alright, I’ll walk you home.”  

“Is that okay? …Hehe. Thanks, Akito.”  

Fujisaki showed me a happy smile.

….Why are you making that face, Fujisaki? 

….Didn’t she hate me?  

The sound of the cherry tree’s leaves rustling seemed louder than usual.
