“Ahh, the curry here is so tasty I wish it was a little h”
“I agree Too bad the only options are either mild or medium”
I’ve never tried anything spicy The curry I ate was always mild because I was ill and they didn’t want it to stimulate me with hot spices I’m a little curious
“Do you guys have anything you recommend?”
“Gyudon”
“Meat again? You really are a meat eater”

My interest was focused on the standard et sick of choosing from the same menu every day? Lets aiood anyways
“I see Next time I’ll look at the contents of the daily lunch”
“Do you have anything you like to eat Akira?”
The clattering sound fro on the keyboard stopped and he said,
“Mine has got to be gokoku rain and rice)

“I’ to follow your example Chiba and try to pay more attention to my health!”
“What, you’ve received an influence fro that aside, do you have a favorite from the menu, Aika-chan?”
“My favorite?”

“I’ve still only eaten here two tis from the menu and eventually decide what I like ood”
“Oh yeah that’s right, you lost your memories”
“It’s not fro I want to try”
“Oh, what is it?”
It’s a food that every student has had before Surely it is a food essential to student life, a cos like dra to eat this after school and watching it made me feel jealous
Someday I will too!
“A ham—”
“Sorry I’m late”
As if to interrupt what I was saying, the door to the student council room opened
The second I saw that person in my field of vision, the colors aroundbrightly…
“You were pretty late”
“Are you all right with your club activities?”
“Ah, it’s no probleht now I need to focus on my student council work anyways”
He had a warm, pleasant voice and talked closely with the other student council ely, I can only hear his voice and I can’t take my eyes off of him
“How far have you progressed?”
“It looks to ressed considerably since yesterday Senpai this stuff here needs your signature It’s finished her up does it so I would like you to do it”
“You work so fast it helps a lot Akira Thank you”
His gently s at his faceto the point of being painful It hurts but I can’t look away My heart began to beat faster and my body temperature rose
Whats happening to me?

Since our eyesbut I couldn’t think of anything My head is blank My palhtly as I continued to gaze at him

I felt the blood rushi+ng to ot dizzy and I had a sense of vertigo It feels like if I let uard down I’ll collapse
“Is that so Ever since you lost your otten worse?”
“Well, umm,”
One step Right, just one step towards him and it would all be over In hot haste I stood up froets any closer to me I’ll suffocate!
I don’t know if he thought I was being strange for standing up so suddenly but he slightly lowered his eyebrows Uuu…what is this feeling, I’ sad
“What’s wrong, shi+nozuka You’re looking pale you know?”

“Noooooooooo!!”
I lost all reason and threw the handout left on the desk straight at Ichinose-senpai’s face My body that was so hot a second ago instantly cooled down
Ahh, I’m such an idiot, how could I do that!
“I’m so sorry…”
Unable to endure it any longer I escaped from the room Because I don’t knohat I should do anymore!
