It was early morning, just after classes have started.

For the first time, he was spacing out a lot.

Michiki Nao was not the type to lose focus in classes;
even though he wasn't interested in the subjects, he wanted to study.

Nevertheless, all he could think about was her.

Her soft, delicate touch encasing him in a sense of security
as if saying, "everything will be alright."

Her calming, caring face with a smile that makes his face beam in the color of red.

His notebook's pages calmly swayed with the wind,
bringing his attention back.

There were no notes on the current page of his notebook.

Nao adjusted his glasses and tried to listen.

However, it seemed impossible.

There was a longing feeling that made him wait for the end of classes so dearly.
It was the same as yesterday's.

Maybe if he didn't see Hana's early morning message,
he would've been able to focus.

"Wait, Hana's message...? What does that have to do with anything?"

Secretly, he took a peek in his phone while the teacher was writing on the board.

He took another look at her message.

"Good morning, Nao!
Good luck with school today~
I'll be waiting for you at the usual place~"

It was a normal message.

Nevertheless, why was he feeling so warm?
