"Huff... huff... "
Not knowing how long she had been running, Yukina finally stopped. She reached out to support herself on the nearby utility pole, gasping for air loudly.
At that moment, the voice of the world came from behind her.
"Yukina...! Yukina...!"
"Don't come any closer!!"
Just as the world was about to reach Yukina, she stopped them with her shout.
"Yukina, I... "
"You don't need to say anything, I understand."
Yukina clenched her hand tightly, not even glancing at the world behind her.
"Why did you follow me and why are you still talking to me? Does talking now have any meaning?"
"... "
At this point, the world lowered their head, remaining silent.
"You like Classmate Haruno, why didn't you just say it outright? Why didn't you tell me? Yet I, like a fool, told you everything... "
"No, that's not what I meant..."
"That's how it's been from the start!"
The world tried to explain, but clearly, Yukina wasn't planning to listen.
