“I like you!” Aah, aah, why? Why, is the world so cruel? Even though I’ve finally given up. Even though all my tears have finally dried. Even though I should have forgotten. My mind has gone blank, not knowing what I ought to say. In the spur of the moment, what I blurted out was. “…..eh, iya, ano…I’m already going out with someone, sorry.” Rejection.
