Chapter 22 – Quiet Talk: “Feelings I Don’t Understand”

TL: Cheetah

ED: Ryuubii

(Sara’s POV)

I should go to bed soon…

While I lay on my bed and close my eyes, I am reminded of today’s events.

Really, so many things have happened.

With Takanashi-san, we were able to convey what we wanted to tell each other.

I told him how I felt, and Takanashi-san told me honestly about himself in order to overcome his feelings.

However, there was something I couldn’t figure out, so I didn’t ask him about it.

What Takanashi-san did for me, he had already done for his childhood friend, and when I heard that, I felt a little… how should I put it… uneasy?

Anyhow, it felt weird.

I mean, she’s someone he’s known for a long time, so it’s only natural that there would be that much interaction between them, but why did I feel uneasy about it…?

And the other thing that I took notice of…

This was the first time for me to have someone outside of my family pat my head and hugged me, with me responding in kind.

It felt very heartwarming…

If it’s just a pat on the head, would it be okay if I requested it again?

…Next time, I’ll ask Takanashi-san to have him pat my head again.

Speaking of which, I had also pat Takanashi-san on the head. He was crying and I couldn’t help doing so, but I guess it was the same when he patted my head.

Well, I have to get up early tomorrow, so let’s go to sleep a little early.

Because finally, the time has come to show the fruits of my training.

I have more things to thank him for, but first, his lunch!

Ah… I forgot to check with Takahashi-san to see if he would be able to make it for lunch tomorrow…

…That’s right! Now that we’ve become friends again, I can send a message to him through LINE, can’t I?

We exchanged contact details, but have never used them yet, and now it’s finally time to use it.

Will I get a reply from Takahashi-san…?

This makes me a little nervous. What should I write?

… Full of worries, It took me 10 minutes to compose the message asking him about tomorrow.
