I look at Soma, who rarely shows his helpless smile. Suddenly, my body stiffened, and unconsciously, I clenched our interlocking hands. Even at the moment, I don't intend to release my hands from him.
Hearing the tone Soma uses, it seems the story would be a serious one. But I am ready to listen to it. I don't know where it started from the bottom of my heart. I want to know more about him, things about his favorite foods, hobbies, and many more that he still hides from me.
"I am sorry, Hina, I lied to you about something".
As I was deep in my thoughts while looking at his face, My thoughts ceased as the first word he said to me was a lie.
My body unconsciously tensed up and loosened the strength in our interlocking hands. I could feel my fingertips start to turn cold from the trauma that was still haunting me. "Is it perhaps another lie? Did he also want to betray my trust?".
