Work Text:
For the past hour, the sounds of non-stop sobbing have flooded my ears.
You think she’d stop by now, and yet it doesn’t end. She just doesn’t stop crying.
Is heartbreak supposed to be this painful?
I just don’t get it, having a crush on Kanon is one thing but… I can’t understand how you’d think her and Chisato weren’t a thing.
Of course I feel for her, I’m not exactly a fan of seeing Keke so devastated but… Seriously? She really thought she had a chance with Kanon, when the two of them are practically joined to the hip? Of course I’m frustrated, if she wasn’t in the process of bawling her eyes out I’d be scolding her right now.
‘What did you expect?’
‘You’re letting this get to you? Seriously?’
So many things I wish I could say to her, and yet I’m stuck saying it all to myself instead.
Not like I have the heart to tell her this myself anyways.
She’s probably realized it on her own, with all those tears that don’t seem to end.
…
…
Those never ending tears…
How long has it been again? Oh right, over an hour now.
I’ve been doing nothing but ranting in my head, as we walked this seemingly never ending path, I haven’t even brought it upon myself to comfort her.
I can’t help but ask myself.
“...Are you done yet?”
The words slip out of my mouth, causing me to shoot a glance behind me.
As soon as I do, her teary-eyed, frustrated face clouds my vision.
Seeing Keke cry like this… It hurts more than it should…
…There's a bit of silence, I can hear her choking up at a simple attempt to speak.
“S-Shut up…"
…
I can't help but listen to her request.
…She really liked Kanon that much, huh?
Another wave of frustration hits me. Not towards Keke, but towards myself… Or maybe that’s how it was from the very start.
At the end of the day, I really shouldn’t have expected anything different from her.
So many things I wish could say, and yet all that leaves my mouth is—
“I guess not yet, hoh.”
