Void of their Affection

On my way to school, I was reminiscing about my exchange with Kizhashi the previous day. Though I've been slacking off a bit since it was already one month since I captured the last target.

I entered the class and noticed Kizhashi glance at me for an instant, but it was so subtle no one would've noticed it. Remembering our agreement of not walking with each other in school, I walked past her to my desk.

Putting my bag on the desk, I sat and yawned while stretching my arms in front of me. The class was filled with the usual chattering of students. The surrounding atmosphere was certainly more lively compared to what it was a week ago. 

I glanced outside the window and noticed that students were already starting with the preparations for the sports festival. Flags bearing our school's emblem were being put in different places. Also, some students were putting the rough structure around the tracks to separate the runners and the crowd.
