The wounds of her heart she got from that day might not have healed yet.
I hesitated-----
I soon made up my mind and talked.
“I have something to tell you; it’s about the seaside school”
Miyabi twitched her body when she heard those words.
“On the day, at the sea----“
“E-errr…….! I have been thinking of talking about this with Tooru for the whole time too……..!”
Miyabi continued talking after interrupting me.
“Thank you for saving me……”
She was thanking me.
“I was really scared. It thought it was over, I thought I was going to get raped and nothing else----I was very happy when Tooru came to save me. But even so, I didn’t thank you at all………”
That’s not true.
It was a little but, I could hear the fear from being attacked by the and her wounded heart when I reacted to her confession, in her thanks.
But, it was the same as not saying that for Miyabi.
After seeing my face, she only told me that she has been fretting over the fact that she couldn’t thank me.
“I am really sorry. I always cause trouble to you……whether it’s during the Seaside school or the , I would always drag Tooru-kun down…………I am really sorry to confess to you when I am someone like that”
“At that time, I was----“
I was about to tell her that I was troubled about something else but when I tried to do so----
“But----it’s okay now”
Miyabi’s expression suddenly changed into a smile.
“I won’t be weight anymore. I will protect you now, Tooru-kun”
“Eh……?”
