TOH
At those words Hamano turned to him with a frown. "Wait, did you actually turn her down?"
"That's not it-" Toh paused. Or was it? Did his words sound like a rejection tio her?
"But, I still wanted to grow wings. Even if he went I would have tried to find him again." Sumire trailed off. "But if I found him, and saw him with someone else. If I saw him with Akane-chan, I think I'd rather die."
Toh felt the colour on his face drain and Arata sighs deeply as he nodded.
Did she try to commit suicide after he left?
'Did she love me that much?'
Sumire giggled again. "I wrote him so many songs! So many songs that revealed my feelings. I wish he saw them all. I think I wrote the lyrics on Ru's arm once because there was no space to write. I needed to write it down, everything. I wanted to leave a mark somewhere so he could see it, The words I never told him. Oh! I know, I'll sing my favourite one."
