Her Tears
Her tears. That was the last thing I wanted to see. Seeing her cry was the most painful, but this was something I needed to do. We needed to end it. It needed to stop. We both knew we could get in trouble. She looked at me with her brown eyes, filled with tears. Her hair was in the same hairstyle as the first time I met her.
"Sensei, do you love me?" Chun-chun asked.
"No, I don't. I'm sorry," I said.
That was when she started to cry. I have seen her cry before, but this was different. She was crying because I rejected her, and I was crying on the inside because I loved her. I wanted to comfort her. I wanted to hold her. I wanted to embrace her. But, most of all, I wanted to protect her. I wanted to protect her from everything. But, I was just hurting her. I wasn't protecting her at all.
I walked past her, and she didn't make any attempt to stop me. I didn't think she would. I just hoped Yuki-chan would take care of her and protect her like I asked. I just hope he won't kill me the next time I see him.
The End
