Reconcilation?

Ch 38

POV Akari Nakano

Standing here with the breeze blowing feels so calming. I should come here more often.

As I was sorting my feelings in my heart, I received a call on my phone. Surprisingly, it was from Makoto. I was going to pick it up, but after thinking for a bit, I decided not to. It was childish, but at least it vented some of my frustration towards him. However, that didn't discourage him from sending me messages.

After seeing the notification appear on my phone, I opened it out of reflex. Only after a few seconds did I realize he could see I read his messages.

Well, leaving on read is in some ways crueller than not reading the messages at all, no?

His first few messages were begging me to forgive him. Although, I didn't respond, that did calm my anger towards him a bit. Just as I was going to reply to him his next set of messages taunting me made completely incensed.
