"Didn't I just say? Because you're cute."
Uesugi Sakura gazed at her, looking at the bright reflection in her eyes.
His body, intentionally or not, moved downward, closer to her face.
Hanamaru Hanabi saw him getting closer, her expression slightly moved, feeling his breath approaching. Her eyes dodged for a moment, but soon returned, looking at him.
"Just... just for a moment..."
"Yes, just for a moment." Uesugi Sakura said, watching her close her eyes and tilt her small face upwards.
Her lightly pursed lips also had a full, moist shine.
Uesugi Sakura gazed at her like this, approached lightly, and gently touched.
Then he hugged her slender waist, pulling her body into his embrace.
...
When he closed his eyes, it felt like everything went quiet; in front of the house, under the night sky, with the trains whistling in Tokyo... it seemed only white snowflakes fluttering under the streetlights were visible.
