Class 3 E has finally graduated and students were going to be be apart now. Manami too was going to leave Kunugigaoka and head for her higher studies in Tokyo and Karma was sad about it. The class had planned on a last day out together in the mountains before they head for their lives.

The students had gathered in the old 3 E classroom where they were all remembering the year they had with Koro sensei.

Karma sat all by himself in the window, he seemed more down than usual. He looks around and sees Nagisa Kayano together, Meg Yuma together, Hinata Maehara together, Kanzaki Sugino together, in short he could see couples everywhere.

"They're all already settled I guess." He sighs.

He searches for Manami but doesn't see her around. He walks up to a busy Nagisa and Kayano.

"Did you guys see Okuda san?"

"She said she's going to the chemistry room." Informs Kayano.

Karma thanks the two and heads for the chemistry room. There he sees Manami making some potions again.

"Oh, are you making poison again." Teases Karma.

"I'm just trying to do something before I leave for Tokyo tomorrow." Answers Manami with a smile on her face.

Karma was taken aback, he knew Manami was going but not this early. He was silent which Manami notices, she walks upto him.

"Are you okay Karma kun?"

"Why didn't you tell me that you're leaving tomorrow?" Asks Karma with a broken face.

"I'm really sorry Karma kun. I was so busy with everything that I forgot to tell you. I'm really sorry." Apologizes Manami.

Karma sits on a free chair and sighs in disappointment.

"And I thought I'd get to spend more time with you." Says a disappointed Karma.

Manami felt bad for Karma, he looked genuinely heartbroken and sad. Tears start falling from her eyes.

"I'm really sorry Karma kun, I really didn't mean to disappoint you." Apologizes Manami as she sits on the floor.

"Okuda san?" Karma gets down on the floor as well.

He sees Manami crying and this time he was the one who felt bad for her.

"I'm sorry Okuda san, I didn't mean to make you cry. I'm really sorry." Apologized Karma.

He wipes Manami's tears.

"I was just teasing you. It was me pranking people as usual."

"I can't see you sad Karma kun. It's just I........."

Karma holds Manami's face and makes her look at him.

"Hey, hey don't cry. It's our final time together and I don't want it to be like this." He smiles trying to make Manami more comfortable.

Somehow through the tears Manami gives a smile.

"You look beautiful no matter what you do." Chuckles Karma.

Manami laughs finally, she laughs her heart out. His words comforted her again.

After a few minutes or so Manami's eyes were completely dry and she had finally got hold of herself. Karma had a serious look on his face. He brings his hand and cups Manami's cheeks.

"Okuda san, this is our last night together before we part our ways and I don't know when we'll meet again. I don't want to make my final memory with you that was in tears." He chuckles.

Manami holds Karma's hands that were cupping her cheeks and brushes it.

"We're not in a relationship but I cannot deny my feelings for you Okuda san and I know that you have the same feelings for me as well. So before we part our ways, can I at least kiss you once?" Asks a nervous and shy Karma.

"You don't need permission for that." She giggles.

Karma holds Manami's small petite face with his hands and leans in for a kiss. Manami kisses him back.

Time suddenly felt slow for the couple. They could feel each other's heartbeat as their lips met. The air felt beautiful and fresh. Karma wanted the kiss to last longer but Manami releases herself from the kiss and proceeds to hug Karma and he hugs her back.

"Are we officially a couple now?" Asks Karma.

Manami nods while conforming it with a smile and another small kiss.

"You'll be going away for 3 years. What will happen to me now?" Asks Karma.

"I can't stay away from you for so long as well, Karma kun." Pouts Manami.

"Hmm.... I guess I'll come to meet you every month then." Says Karma.

"And I can come meet you sometimes as well." She smiles and giggles.

Karma smiles and places a kiss on her forehead.

They spent the rest of the night playing pranks on their classmates, one final memory with their class.

The night turns to morning and it was time for Manami and Karma to finally part their ways. The train to Tokyo was due to head for its destination in a few minutes. Manami and Karma were on the platform having one final moment before they part their ways.

"Take care Okuda san." Wishes Karma with a smile on his face.

"Thank you so much Karma kun." Replies Manami.

"I'll always be in contact with you. Don't you dare forget about me. okay?" Says Karma while brushing her head as usual.

Manami raises her legs and places a quick kiss on his lips.

"I'll never forget you." She winks and enters the train.

Karma blushes but then it turns to a warm smile. He sees Manami waving to him from the window and waves back to her as the train starts to move away from the platform. He waves and waves until she could no longer be seen.
