Chapter 5: I Give Up

OK, people! It's the last chapter! I know, I know, it's way too short…maybe I'll add more? Whatever! Enjoy!

It's been 2 months since the kiss and Miki and Rhythm hasn't spoken to each other even once. Miki found out that Yoru was the one that ruined her painting and is giving him the silent treatment.

Miki's also been hanging around Kiseki a lot lately because Ran is going out with Daichi and Suu is going out with Musashi. Rhythm was still avoiding Miki, which was really hard since their lockers were right next to each other.

One day Miki and Kiseki were walking home together (Tadase was at Amu's house so Kiseki had to go, too) and bumped into Rhythm and Nagihiko at the convenience store. When Rhythm saw Miki and Kiseki together, he grabbed Miki's arm without thinking and dashed off.

He stopped running when they hit a dead end alley.

"Rhythm, what are you---" Miki started. Suddenly, Rhythm pulled Miki into a kiss.

Miki was shocked at first, but slowly got into it.

Kiseki, who followed them, saw it and began to realize he cannot win Rhythm…

Time Skip: 3 years later

The day of Miki and Rhythm's wedding, Kiseki appeared in front of Rhythm at the reception. "I cannot win." Kiseki said and walked out of the building.

Staring at the big blue sky, Kiseki thought, I'm sure I can find someone else like her, right?
