Chapter Text
364…
You murmured, as you moved your hand across the paper of your notebook, the tip of your pen showed a streak of black ink making a faint sound as it touched and moved on the paper.
730….
Your ears perk up hearing your teacher’s voice rang across the classroom talking about something prior to the subject she is teaching, as you make yourself pay attention from time to time to take notes.
1,095…..
Occasionally taking glances at the window on your left side to look at the large tree in the middle of your school campus, looking at it bitterly.
1,460……
Doing one streak of a line and another, and then your hand stopped moving. Staring at the sketch you made on your own notebook as you made a small bittersweet smile on your face. Taking another glance at the window again, your eyes widen out slightly seeing someone you very well know below the shades of the tree.
RIIIIING
1,642…..
The bell rang announcing its break time, “Alright class! Don't forget to pass your homework in 2 days. I’ll get going now, see all of you tomorrow.” Your teacher said and left the classroom. Soon after, your classmates came rushing near the window making you get squished by some on your own seat.
1,679….
Startled by the sudden intrusion, you tried to get yourself in a comfortable position then your classmates started chattering. “OH MY GOSH! IT IS REALLY HAPPENING!!” “What’s happening?” “Of course it's the!...” The student’s chatter starts fading out from your senses as you look out the window, only focusing on the boy waiting under the shades.
1,723…
Even with his back facing in your view you can still see his pearl-like hair shining as ever even under the shades, a streak of scarlet red across his left side of his hair making it one to stand out on his appearance.
1,750..
Spotting someone came running into him in your peripheral vision you already know who she was. Light blue hair tied in a ponytail, fair and delicate skin with beautiful eyes that can make everyone envy her beauty. Even her name is beautiful… Kamisato Ayaka. Everyone knows the young petite girl as her family is well known in the whole country, oh how lucky her future husband is in the future marrying such a beautiful and kind woman like her. But it seems she will have her future husband today.

You see as Ayaka halts a stop behind him, seeing as her mouth moves making you notice the boy turned around to face her.
…1,800
You hear noises of squealing and cheering but you don't bother as you only focus looking at his eyes, only him. You saw as his hair sways in the wind, bangs that framed his face perfectly making him look ethereal in people's eyes. His warm vermillion eyes that make you feel warm and cozy, eyes that makes you want to stare at it all day, eyes that makes you feel safe, eyes that make you drown into those warm colors that make you feel at home.

Kaedehara Kazuha, the name… his name that rolls nicely in your tongue.The name that makes you go to your bathroom mirror and practice every syllable of his name. The name that makes you go flustered hearing it from your friend’s to tease you with. Kazuha…he is-

You gripped your skirt tightly as you tore away the scene that's happening. “IT’S FINALLY HAPPENING!!” “OH MY IT REALLY IS” You clenched your bottom lip and brows furrowing, already knowing what your classmate is gonna say next. “AYAKA IS GONNA CONFESS!!”.
1,821
You looked to get your one notebook in your bag. Seeing that you found what you are looking for, you brought it and excused yourself to the students that were getting in the way.
1,822
Getting out of the classroom, you opened the notebook and search for that one sketch you made.
1,823
Staring at the sketch you made earlier in the classroom, you looked at it bittersweetly as you ripped the page off it while you looked for a nearby trash bin.
1,824
Standing in front of the trash bin, you looked at the piece of paper again for the last time. It’s a sketch of him…Kazuha, the person that made you feel giddy just having his presence even with him not near you, the person that made you do things just for him to notice you, the person that made you so happy with just small interactions. Kazuha… the person that made you like him for 5 years. The person that you liked just watching from afar, not even you are part of his world.
“Maybe it’s the time…”
…1,825
“...that i should stop counting” You said weakly as you folded the sketch of him and threw it in the trash bin. One tear dropped from your eye and another, and another until you shed tears.
It’s time I give up on him…
