Hiro was a little bit shy when he stroke my head
while seized my hand tightly.



"You~are uncertain so hold unto me"


It was the first time I held Hiro's hand.

His big hand...
wrapped up Mika's little hand.




Went home, after we finished the meal
Hiro began looking for something inside his bag.


What he took out was
an instant camera.



"Let's take a picture!"


Hiro turned his arm on my shoulder like he was used to it.

The dazzling flash
shone on the two of us.



At that time...



Smooch


On my cheek, Hiro's lips
lightly touched.


...! ? ! ?


I realized something happened and then separated from Hiro,
then touch the cheek that was touched by his lips.



"You don't like it, do you? I'm sorry"


The sad expression on Hiro's face
made he feel a little bit guilt because I ran away.


"It's not that I don't like it...I'm just surprised!!"


"Yeah, it is. I'm sorry. Maybe I like you, Mika"


"....Eh??"


"Is it okay to like you?"



It's not that we hadn't going out yet.


...he didn't just
targeted my body right??


But at this time instead of targeting my body,
I was afraid of being hated by Hiro if I refused the kiss.
That's why...


"It's...okay"

We reached Hiro's home.


"Excuse me for disturbing..."


I muttered with small voice
but there was no reply.


"No one's here!"



What!? No one's here?
So it's just the two of us??



...Until now the number of people that went together were three.


And it always finished
in a short time.


The reason was
the both of us were thinking of liking each other seriously.


For dating outside
we had done it.

But playing in a boy's room for only both of us...

it is the first time for Mika.




On the floor, clothes, textbooks and accessories were scattered around
As expected from a boy's room.


Because of nervousness
I couldn't calm down.

But things that I didn't used to
I didn't want Hiro to realize.




"Don't be nervous"


Hiro bluntly
stroke my face.



It looked like my nervousness
would be exposed....




We talked
about our school...
about how that teacher was,
about how that student was.




Vague feeling turned to confidence with doubt,
one insecurity was born.



- Mika likes Hiro.
What about Hiro? -



It's lunch time
Two of us went to convenience store to buy lunch


On the way we were walking,
Hiro faced Mika
and held one of my hand.



"Eh? What?? Why??"

Koizora Chapter 2 Page 5

One morning...
Like usual, I was waiting for the bus to go to school.




♪ping ping♪


The sound of incoming mail
I opened the inbox.



Sender : Hiro


[Let's skip school today!]



...skip school?
Why??


I couldn't understand what he meant so I called him.


The bus might be coming
so I just made a short call.



♪Purururururu♪


"Yes~!"


Hiro raised
the tension.


"What do you mean by skipping school??"


"Let's skip school today and play at my home♪"






What should I do.
I had gym lesson that I were weak at today.


I wanted to play with Hiro
...well, no problem!



"Ok~!!"


Gave a light answer,
asked for the nearest bus station from Hiro's house, then I got on a bus that stop there.



I got on the bus,
asked Hiro
then got off from the bus in an unfamiliar place.



In front of the bus station, Hiro who rode on a black bicycle
pointed at the back with his thumb.



"Get on! We gonna fly so hang on tightly~"



He lifted up Mika's body, placed on the back,
then started riding the bicycle.



I held on tightly on Hiro's back,
felt Hiro's warmth for the first time
made me nervous.

♪ ping ping♪

Not even one minute since I sent the mail


The answer from Hiro's immediate reply consisted just only one phrase



[I've broken up with her]




"That's great Mika♪ "


Aya who looked at the reply hopping and jumping
as if she herself who got the joyfulness.


"That's good♪ "


Yuka also smiled and made guts pose


".......thank you."




I should be happy that the person I liked broke up with his girlfriend...


I didn't know why.
I couldn't honestly happy.


Because,
I felt like he would like to me again.


Somewhere in my heart
uneasiness still left.


I felt that
I still couldn't trust him
100%...


The first time he lied
until now I subtlety drag along with it.



...........what I heard from Nozomu
the most quick he took
surely was the hand.


But I was scared of knowing the truth....
after all, it was better if i didn't ask.



Hiro had said that
he had broken up.


Right now I had to
believe in Hiro's words.....
