“Teacher, what happened to the girl you used to like?”
The man at the lectern lowered his gaze, seeming to sink into a long-ago memory. After a while, he said, “I’ve never had a past, and I’ve never liked anyone.”
The students burst into laughter, their commotion quickly drowning out his voice. The words that followed, “I’ll love her forever,” faded into silence amid the laughter, lost without a trace.
Literary version: Have you ever loved someone deeply?
No names, no future, no asking where the road leads
Have you ever been shattered by loss?
The world went dark, and not a single place held light
Plain version: It’s really just a story about two tsundere people secretly loving each other for ten years.
