The bell chimed with an elated tone, signaling the end of school. Everyone in class rustled with haste to get out of there as they jumped to their friends. Teruhashi fumbled with the hem of her pleated skirt, with her other hand clutching desperately on the leg of the desk.

It's been a while, she was tired of trying to get Saiki to notice her with subtle hints. Instead, she decided to go for it.

This morning, she came to school extremely early, probably the first student to even step on the school grounds. Rushing past hallways and teachers, she reached her classroom and slipped the pink letter inside Saiki's desk. She even double-checked to make sure it was in the right desk.

She had spent the night, carefully planning and selecting the right words to convey her emotions as she asks him to meet behind the school building after school.

Of course, she was also ecstatic to tell Aiura about this, Aiura had been by her side for long since months ago, and they have grown to be best friends. She was sure that Aiura would help her when she would panic or when her wild and expressive mind attacks her with negative thoughts.

She swiftly skipped to Aiura's seat, with every step was filled with delight and bliss.

"Hello Aiura!" She exclaimed, excitement was clear in her voice.

"Hey Koko, what's up?"

"I-I'm going to confess today." She whispered, leaning towards the blonde's ear as she does so. Aiura blushed a bit at the close proximity of the two. Though suddenly, the words hit her like a boulder flying at her face.

"W-wait, what!" Aiura yelled, a little too loud as the rest of the class glanced at her with confusion. Her face was first plastered with fear, and then acceptance, and soon, a facade of joy. Aiura leaned near her, whispering, "Really? Oh my god! You go girl! That's my Koko right there!"

"Thank you so much!" Teruhashi gleamed, she clasped Aiura's hand and bounced with happiness.

Aiura smiled fondly at her. Though her heart clenched and twisted, her throat was sore and dry, feeling the unbearable pain shudder in her heart, her eyes were unnoticeably glossy, wishing to scream and bawl with unfathomable despair. She wanted to be the reason why Teruhashi felt delightful, she wanted to be the reason why Teruhashi smiles. Simply speaking, she wanted to be the sun to her world, but she knew as clear as daylight that it would never happen. Oh how such a simple love could mess a person.

The blonde simply clasped Teruhashi's hand back, giving her the utmost support she could right now. Her first priority has been Teruhashi's happiness, even though it couldn't have been her.
