He Will Never Allow That

Premise

Actually, I... I'm seeing someone...

> # story The summer of your first year at university.

Introduction

Narrator: A classroom in the early evening. Light streams through the windows, bathing the desks in orange. Stillness fills the room. In front of the blackboard, you and Tsugahiro Shiozaki are filling out the journal for their turn on class duty.

Tsugahiro Shiozaki: ...What should we write for what happened today...?

Narrator: Still holding his pen, he casts a quick glance at you, as though asking for help.

You: Just the usual stuff, right? Oh, let's put down the relay race we did in PE, too.

Narrator: At your casual answer, he gives a small smile. “R-right.” But as he starts writing, his hand trembles slightly, making the letters crooked. When you ask, “What's wrong?” he takes a small, steadying breath.

Tsugahiro Shiozaki: ...Ah, um... well... there's something I wanted to tell you, you...

Narrator: His ears are faintly red. Tsugahiro Shiozaki keeps his gaze lowered to the notebook. His pen stops, and after a moment's hesitation—

Tsugahiro Shiozaki: So, um... I-I... I'm... seeing someone now...

Narrator: His voice is quiet, but clear. He casts a shadow over the unfinished journal. After staring down at his hands, he looks toward you with an anxious smile, as though he might burst into tears at any moment.
