I went to school the next day. Already, there were rumors of Nao and Daichi. Something about him asking her to live with him. But I didn't care right now. I just wanted to disappear.

"Kumi, you don't seem like yourself today. Did. Something happen while I was gone." Riku turns around, holding onto my hand.

I take a deep breath, turned out kinda shaky though. "I was supposed to spend Valentine's Day with Daichi. He invited me. But he stood me up at the end." I say, voice cracking as I say the last part.

"Kumi..." She says, holding onto my hand tighter.

"And on my way back home, I saw him with Nao. There was no way of me ending up with him. It's all just a one-sided love for me. I want to disappear so badly right now." I said.

"I'm so sorry, Kumi." She says.

"It's alright. Just get your books out. The teacher will come in any minute." I said, taking my books out of my bags.

It was the end of school. And I was already walking home. And Daichi didn't bother to try and come see me or talk to me. Not even apologize. But why should he? He was only playing with my feelings.

I look down the whole time. Not really watching where I'm going. "Kumi." I hear someone call my name. I turn around to see Daichi, smiling and waving at me. Why is he acting as if nothing happened on Sunday? I don't bother to wave back or give him a simple smile. I just turn back around and continue walking. I then hear him running towards me, comes to a halt once he's next to me.

"Hey, are you ok?" He asks. I don't reply. I just give him a small nod, not bothering to look at him. I could already feel the tears coming. Not right now please.

"I'm really sorry about Sunday. I saw Nao crying and so I had to see what had happened and-"

"It's always Nao, it's never anyone else." I say coldly. "You never think about anyone else's feelings other than Nao's." I say, still not bothering to look at him.

"Kumi, that's not true. I think about you-"

"Do you really think I'll believe that you think about my feelings!" I shout. Luckily there wasn't anyone around to hear me. This was basically an empty part of the neighborhood. "Did you think about my feelings when you stood me up that day?! Did you think about my feelings at all that day?! I waited for two hours at the park, only for you to not bother to show up? I stayed there, cold and freezing, waiting for you! And you didn't bother to show up!" I shout.

The tears were coming out already. My voice was basically shaky every time I spoke. "I gave up after that and walked home. Then I saw you with Nao. All you ever do is think about Nao. No one else." I say.

"Kumi..."

"Did you just want to make me cry!? Did plan on just playing with my feeling!? Why!?" I shout even more.

"I...i didn't know you felt this way about me."

"Of course you don't! Because all your life it was always about Nao! No one else! Just Nao. It was always just Nao to you." I said. We stay slimmer for a lot more longer. Not bothering to say anything. "You didn't even bother to call or text me the next few days. Just stayed silent. You made me feel like an idiot." I said.

"Kumi." He reaches for my arm. I step back and push his hand away.

"Don't. Just don't. J-just leave me alone please. That's all I ask of you." I said, finally walking away from him. I cry the rest of the way home. Not caring about the people staring at me.

I enter the house. Go to my room and change into my work clothes. I grab my bag with all the things I need in it and walk to work. I really hope my eyes aren't that puffy.
