Ten years ago, you said sadly to two senior students from the technical college, "I can't forget Senior Geto's melancholic eyes."
The other two seniors slowly put out N question marks.
What did you say? Those eyes looked melancholic? How were they melancholic?
Senior Geto smiled and explained for you, "Hokushuku has been corrupted by rock music. She thinks everything has a melancholic vibe."
You neither agreed nor disagreed.
You: "So I especially can't stand seeing those eyes clouded by a grand cause..."
More question marks appeared over the two seniors' heads at the same time. What grand cause?
Suguru Geto smiled at you.
"Ah," you said, "I was only joking. What I really meant was... I really like you, Senior Geto. Would you go out with me?"
-
As expected, he turned you down.
You wouldn't give up. You clung to him and wouldn't let go. In a small voice, you asked, "What would it take for you to like me, Senpai?"
The Cursed Spirit Manipulator, still a student, always seemed easygoing. "Because Hokushuku doesn't really like me."
You had no way to argue.
Well... he wasn't wrong, you thought.
You didn't truly like Senior Geto. You just wanted so badly to save him, in a shallow way.
-
Hokushuku Natsu, a transfer student from Kyoto Jujutsu High, a beloved junior and a bassist, openly confessed her love to Suguru Geto on a winter afternoon.
He almost said yes.
What an immature view of love. At least take it seriously, will you?
Don't look at him with that kind of pity when you see him.
If she truly loved him, wholeheartedly,
he would never turn her down.
*Reader's Guide
1. One-on-one pairing. The love interest is the guy with the weird bangs.
2. The plot will be extensively changed. Happy ending. Suguru Geto is reborn.
3. First-person or third-person narration. Currently leaning toward third person.
