"Students, I'm already expecting that you are already aware of the issues circulating in the campus. I suggest that everyone should move on and welcome a new beginning.." Our homeroom teacher spoke.
  
  
   
      
   

"...Apparently, Asahi Sora decided to leave the school. Mr and Mrs. Asahi thought it would be the best option for her to grow and learn from her mistakes." He continue, "I also heard that they will compensate to one of the student who suffered from her—"
 
   
   
  

"Sensei, if you don't mind. You really don't have to tell everyone what's going to happen to that student. I think it's better kept secret. Stop it." Yui stood up. Everyone else agreed, "I don't normally agree to Yui's statement, she's right, you know.."
  
  
 
  
    

"R-right. I'm sorry." He eyed to Hina, clearing his throat whilst tidying up his desk. "I'll meet everyone this afternoon."
  
  
    
  
   

"Don't worry Hina, you've got us." They said in unison. Akari had to pinch me to just to gain my consciousnesses as I found myself spacing out again. "Ah, yeah. Thanks..I guess,"
  
 
  
  
  
"Are you OK?" Akari asks.
 
  
 
  
 
    
 
If I am being honest. I really don't know. It's like one day it struck me again..Like someone threw a boiling water over my body and I woke up from reality — and it's all because if that eavesdropping.

  
  
 
   
      
"Yes, I'm good. I just feel like I haven't been able to have time for myself and I can't process what happened. Then, there's like this sudden whoosh in my life and NOW everyone loves me. I'm not used to this.."

  
  
 
 
 
 
"Hina, I think you're burned out. I suggest you should take a break from all this. Would that be good, right?" Akari look over to Yui, looking for support.

  
 
    
 
Yui pats my head, gently. I exhaled, "Am I that burned out? I mean, I can't take a break because I want to progress and improve my study.."
 
 
   
     
 
"Geez, you can always go back whenever you want to, your mental health is what matters right now. You can't do the things you're passionate about if you're tired. Trust me, you'll be better if you take a break."
 
 
 
 
  
 
I think Akari's right. I may need to take a rest. Now, that I know that I can see the end of all these mess.

 
  
 
  

"I'm taking your suggestions." I confidently replied, earning a warm smile from both of them. I could feel their sincere support. "That's our, Himari Hina.." Akari wanted a group hug but Yui refuses, pretending to vomit. "Stop it, it's too much." We fell into a laughter.

  
 
 
 
"..Oi, Akari. Someone is looking for you outside." Our guy classmate interrupts us. She immediately walk out from the class.

  
  
    
   
Yui and I snickered before we started working on our pending assignments.
