Chapter 7
Early April 1981.
A sunny day.
On this day, a new first grader entered K Elementary School.
After the entrance ceremony for new students was held in the gymnasium, there was a commemorative photo taken in the schoolyard.
It was just break time, and the children were watching their new little friends with great interest.
There was also Ryosaku in it.
For some reason, on this day, he felt a strange feeling of uneasiness, and decided to leave the library, where he had always been confined, and see the debut of the new first-year students.
The children who were waiting for the photo shoot all had a nervous look on their faces, but among them, there was one girl who particularly caught Ryosaku's attention.
"···cute!"
Ryosaku, who had lost himself and was fascinated by the child, came to his senses and met the child's eyes.
Then, she gave Ryosaku an angelic smile.
Ryosaku instantly felt overwhelmed by this new junior who was four years younger than him.
"What is this feeling...!"
・・・The love that he tastes for the first time in his life.
But Ryosaku didn't know at that time that it was called "first love".
It's just a hot feeling... he himself doesn't know what it is, but a shock like an electric current running through his body...
Falling in love with the person in front of him in real life... For Ryosaku, it was such a shocking incident.
