When Ai entered the apartment, she immediately glanced at the corner where the Girls' Day dolls were kept, then smiled faintly and said softly, "They didn't put them away."

"Yes, put it away after the Girls' Festival, and you two can put it back up next year."

Akemi handed Ai a cup of homemade milk tea, then plopped down on the sofa, turned on the TV, and continued, "Sit down and tell me what happened that day."

"Um."

Ai held the steaming milk tea in both hands, blew on it, took a small sip, and then continued, "It all started that night when Kōyō and I walked out of the movie theater..."

She skipped over many irrelevant details and things she found difficult to say, but even so, she still talked for a full five or six minutes.

After finishing her story, Ai lowered her eyes, took a sip of the fragrant milk tea, and remained silent for a long time.

The scene from that time flashed before her eyes again, as if it had just happened a second ago.

Like a pebble dropped into a calm lake, ripples spread through her heart, and several images gradually appeared on the surface: the rescue he had given her, that desperate scream...

After hearing the whole story, Akemi remained silent.

She couldn't imagine how dangerous it was, but she could understand Ai's feelings at the time to some extent.

What touched her the most in the whole incident was Guangyou's behavior at that time.

After a long while, Akemi smiled, reached out and patted Ai's shoulder, and exclaimed, "This is our luck, and it's also your luck."

I was really confused today, something came up, so I'm late (even though it's because I type slowly...).

[A girl confessed her feelings to me today...it took me a while to reject her...]

[It was just a photo I posted, sigh... (leans back)]
