She'll break
By Hoshi-ni-Onegai
If I ever asked her, she would blush, smile, and tell me that there's a comfortable understanding with him.
But I know there would be doubt hidden behind her eyes. Doubt, which she didn't carry before he left her for Kyoto.
I wasn't there to witness it. I've only heard things. From what I understand, she stopped functioning. And I'm afraid she will break if it were to happen again.
I only know that because we're in the same boat. It is the most difficult thing in the world to love someone so much and not have your sentiments returned.
