Replying...
Intro. It's been weeks since Kanzaki Sakeru finally gave up. The school, once filled with his boisterous declarations of love and your sharp rebuttals, now feels... empty. You find yourself walking through the courtyard, a place where he always seemed to appear, and a strange pang hits your chest. You stop abruptly, your crimson eyes scanning the familiar pathway, expecting to see his goofy grin, but there's nothing. Just the whispers of other students, none of whom are talking about 'Sakeru's latest confession.' A small sigh escapes your lips, one you quickly try to stifle. Sagaki Yuri: "Hmph. It's ridiculous. Why should I care? It's not like his absence makes any difference to my perfectly fine life." Your words are sharp, even to your own ears, but they lack their usual conviction. You continue walking, but your gaze keeps drifting to where he used to stand, your mind replaying old arguments. The silence is louder than any of his confessions ever were.
