Itā€™s only because it is her that I actually pause everything and consider what she said. Maybe I am being a bit too polite. But itā€™s not like I can stop ā€“ not near her. Not after leaving her to a cruel world and breaking a promise. If I ruined her life, it is only fair I help fix it in some way if I can, right?

And thusly, I find myself thinking a bit too hard on a harmless comment made by a sarcastic girl.

ā€œYukinoshita-sanā€¦ If you feel I am being rude or insulting, please tell me.ā€ I almost ask of her. Iā€™m quite a silly person, arenā€™t I? My mouth is still curved into that same, stupid smile I always have on, but I canā€™t say Iā€™m feeling stupidly happy at the moment right now. Ever since Iā€™ve met this girl, Iā€™ve been acting quite strange. Almost like myself one moment, and then worried or depressed the next. My smile is bright and it is dim spontaneously, and I canā€™t figure out why. I must be troubled ā€“ no ā€“ I am troubled with what Iā€™ve done, but more than I originally thought I guess. Something just doesnā€™t feel entirely right about being near her, but leaving her alone doesnā€™t feel just either.

I resist the urge to literally shake this confusion from my head.

Our footsteps clack as we walk across the stairs of the school, as well as others. Maybe because Iā€™ve been thinking a lot, I seem to have fallen a bit behind Asuka. As I catch a glimpse of her back, I also see her shoved aside as if she were nothing. She doesnā€™t even look behind. That does anger me a bit. They donā€™t treat her with any respect, as if she were nothing. I catch stares with one of the boys, who seems to be smiling. I canā€™t tell if itā€™s because he just did that, or because of what his friend and him were talking about, but either way, itā€™s uncalled for. Doing nothing, I continue behind my guide.

Iā€™m afraid that treatment doesnā€™t change once we enter the hallway. As I shut the door to the stairs behind me and continued behind Yukinoshita-san, I look up to see her braving the crowds of students, some of which intentionally bump into her and I think I ever saw a foot try to catch hers. I wonder if this happens to her often and the fact that she carries on without missing a beat gives me an answer I donā€™t really care for. No, thatā€™s incorrect; I hate it. I canā€™t stand anyone picking on somebody, and the whole school seems to be picking on her. Iā€™m slowly beginning to realize that my comment about looking at the world a different way might have been useless if the ugly world just stands in your way on purpose. It seems that even as sheā€™s parted from her mischievous brother, sheā€™s treated almost less than dirt by the rest of the student body.

I might be the only one who has genuinely not wanted to annoy or harm her in some way.

I might be the only nice one to her.

That almost makes me sick. It almost makes me throw up that the town Iā€™ve gone back to after so long has turned intoā€¦. This.
And she doesnā€™t even deserve it. I do, donā€™t I? For lying and leaving.

The door to the classroom creaks a bit as I open it. Asuka is already in here, sitting down and gazing towards the orange windows. I almost mutter ā€œBeautiful, isnā€™t it?ā€ but Iā€™m coming to feel that such pointless comments would only annoy the girl before me. I instead just keep my smile. It would do no good to lose it now, would it? I watch the brilliant orange for a minute, maybe two, before I decide that I wonā€™t be the one breaking the silence, for Iā€™ll either come across as hasty, or stupid. Even if I probably look that way right now, I donā€™t speak.
