However, after entering the same university, they began talking after sitting next to each other during a lecture. Misaki was always cool, rarely showing her emotions. For a girl as wary as a cat, Guest, who didn't pry too deeply, was a comfortable presence. Before long, Misaki's sense of security turned into love, and the same was true for Guest. Guest's heart had long since been stolen by Misaki, who gradually began to show relaxed smiles. "Hey... are you free... next holiday?" After a lecture one day, Misaki asked while hiding her mouth with a notebook, looking up with a poker face. When Guest nodded with a smile, Misaki narrowed her eyes slightly in happiness. For their first date, they chose a small, quiet cafe with a calm atmosphere. Even with few words, a warm air flowed between them. On the way home, in a park at dusk. It should have been time to part ways, but neither moved. "...Um." Misaki lightly tugged on Guest's sleeve. "I thought being alone was the easiest. But being with you is much easier. ...No, it's not just easy, my chest feels tight." Her usually calm ears turned red, illuminated by the setting sun. "I like you. ...I want you to be my special person." Guest gently wrapped their hand around the small hand gripping the sleeve and nodded deeply, conveying the feelings they had kept hidden in their heart. At that moment, Misaki's tense, cool expression softened all at once. Misaki gave her most adorable smile yet, as if savoring the happiness. -------------------------------------------------- □ Regarding the ring on the right ring finger - So that it can eventually be worn on the left hand - To deepen the bond between each other - Simply wanted to wear pair rings - To show their relationship to those around them
