TN : 1/15 Marathon Release!!!

====

“Sorry. I- I’m really happy to receive that letter, but I only think of you as a friend… so, going out is a little bit…”

That was how the girl rejected me. Even though I didn’t confess to her or anything of the sort. Naturally, I also did not know of the letter she was speaking of.

And honestly, I had a lot of dissatisfaction coursing through me at how the event went. I mean, it was only natural that I would be. After all, she had gotten my hopes up when she had just suddenly called me out to meet her behind the school building after school. So, what was wrong with me getting my hopes up?!

By the way, I still had no idea what in the world was going on here, though.

We were not even in the same class nor know each other. And though I did saw her face sometimes, that’s all that happened between us. Besides, while her face was above average, she wasn’t my type. Not really.

So, what in the world was this farce? To call someone who you met for the first time then rejected him for no reason… are you for real?!

Yet, what in the hell was that bashful act for?! I DON’T EVEN KNOW YOUR NAME!!!

“THAT’S WHY, I’M SORRY, MITARAI!!!”

After leaving those words behind, that girl ran away.

Fufufufu… so, that’s the case… I see now…

“FU*CKING BI*TCH, MY NAME IS KOGANEIIIIIII!!!”

The only letter she got correct was the ‘I’ in our names, dammit!

HOW COULD A HIGH SCHOOL STUDENT MAKE SUCH A STUPID MISTAKE LIKE THIS?! WAIT, DOES THAT DUMB GIRL EVEN KNOW THE FACE OF THE GUY WHO SENT HER THAT LOVE LETTER? NEVERMIND, I AM PRETTY SURE THAT SHE DID NOT KNOW MITARAI’S FACE!

As I looked at the empty space before me with incredulous light in my eyes, I lamented about how my first confession ended up in a tragic misunderstanding.

Dammit, just you wait! I’ll go out with a woman far better than that dumb girl!

Alas, while making that oath in my mind, I was run over by a car on the way home from school.

―― Where is this place?

I thought as I opened my eyes. However, the scene before me was blurry, and I couldn’t hear anything. What was more, I couldn’t even move my limb as I wanted to.

Was my body paralyzed due to that incident? Or… have I already died?

As anxiety and fear gripped my heart, growing ever deeper, my eyes couldn’t help but tear up. Cra*p, can I cry now?

Unable to bear the welling emotion in my chest, I cried as loud as I can. Anyway, who would blame me for crying in this kind of situation I find myself in?

However, as I cried, I also heard the cries of someone’s baby nearby. But I couldn’t care less as I am still pitying myself.

Sorry kid, did I wake you up just now? Please do forgive me that, but I’m in an extremely sad state right now and can’t appease you.

I inwardly apologized as I continued crying. But, when I was crying like that, I felt my body was suddenly enveloped by something soft and warm.

Someone was patting my back as if that person was trying to comfort my sad self. When I felt that, my cries soon faded into hiccups.

Yup, that helps me out a lot. I had no idea who you are, but thanks a lot. I feel calmer now.

I wanted to convey my gratitude, but somehow, I felt incredibly sleepy after I cried loudly like that. So, unable to fight against my drowsiness, my consciousness retreated as I felt myself being wrapped in something warm. And before long, I was deep asleep.

It was only after I could see that I realized a very important fact… it seemed I was reincarnated.
