Short Story 1 : Shiina Hiyori SS – Beneath A Scarlet Sky

it went much better than I expected, and the points we got increased even further afterwards.

«You look in good health as always, Ayanokouji-kun.»

He wasn't a person who would strain himself, but this is an exam where nothing is certain.

«Yeah, for now at least.»

«I don't think I need to worry about you, but please be careful. Just one injury can get you expelled after all.»

«I know.»

Going in solo means you can't guard yourself from the unexpected.

Even if I wanted to help him, my group is already at its maximum capacity.

«There's just 3 days left, right?»

I just hope he will be okay until then.

«Yeah.»

I looked at his face as it was bathed in the light of the sunset and started thinking.

Him retiring would be better for my own class.

I know it's that simple, but I can't continue these thoughts.

No, I believe I just want to avoid thinking about it.

To me, Ayanokouji-kun is a good reading partner. A good friend.

And… how do I say this?

He has a mysterious charm. He is someone I can't take my eyes off from.

He makes me want to spend more time with him. As much as possible.

If only we didn't have to fight, if only we were in the same class,

then this school life would become painted in even more lovely colours.

If only these gentle moments could have lasted forever——
