Chapter 1
A beautiful morning in spring.
In front of the school gate, everyone greeted each other with smile on their face.
A girl who wore sailor uniform stood among the people who walked toward the school.
A small black hair, j.a.panese beauty kind of girl.
That girl, Fujii Hina, with a slight nervous expression on her face put her hand on her chest, as she took a deep breath.
Looking up to the school that she will attend for the three years of her life, with expectation and slight worry inside her chest.
"... Alright"
She clasped her hand tightly.
Hina started to walk, holding the bag with a black keyholder with the both of her hand.
Her skirt flutter as she started to move her slender leg.
With big, drooping eyes, she looked straight ahead.
And then, over there.
"Oi oi, Hina. Don’t go by yourself like that"
A young man called her.
"Ah" Hina blinked then turned around.
A man wearing gakuran held his bag on his shoulder, ran toward her.
He knitted his eyebrows.
"You have bad sense of direction, right? It’s bad if you move around as you please like this. I already ask you to go to school together on your first day moving to this school right? *Sigh*, don’t make me look out for you too much, okay?"
Even though he said that, that handsome man had a smile on his face.
The expression of his face seems like saying that walking together to school with Hina, was something that made him unbearably happy.
"Yuuto-kun, I’m sorry. Did I make you wait for me?"
When Hina asked him so, with a worried smile on her face.
Yuuto put his hand on his mouth and burst into laugh.
"Naah, I just go straight to school. I thought that since it was Hina we talking about, probably she already on the way to the school"
"... Ehehe"
Hina scratched her face in embarra.s.sment.
"Yuutkun always able to know everything, eh"
"It, it’s not like that, yeah. Rather than that, you’re just too easy to read, Hina"
"Ehehe"
One could felt great amount of affection from his word. The two who walked while laughing together, really looked like a sweet couple.
"Your body is weak, so just call me when something happen. I’ll tell you the location of
"Okay"
"Don’t exert yourself too much, okay?"
"Thanks, ehehe..."
"Seriously, you...But, this is somehow, felt great, eh. We’re in the same school... right?"
"Yeah, I’m looking forward to it"
Spring is the season for fateful meeting.
Spring is the season for new love to bloom.
They walked on the way toward the school building, with the song of little bird blessing them.
As if, the place that was filled with the most happiness the world was located over there.
"But... I’m sorry, Yuutkun"
"Hmm, what’s the problem?"
Yuuta asked her with confused face.
As expected, Hina also felt bad for him.
"I’m sorry, I can’t, anymore"
Her expression didn’t changed, but its sounds like she tried wringe out her voice just to said that.
As if, that was the trigger.
... Finally.
Hina’s body started to heel over on her next step.
"...Eh?"
Yuuta felt like the time moved slowly as he saw Hina started fell, as she put her leg on the ground, her knees bent like she’d lost her standing and fell flat on the ground.
"... Hina?"
Suddenly, all sound ceased from Yuuta’s mind.
At first, he thought what kind of prank she trying to pull, looked at her who lying unmoving on the asphalt.
"... Hi, Hina...? O, OI, what are you doing, Hina...!"
Then looking at Hina who didn’t budged a bit despite falling in such weird posture, it wasn’t normal no matter how much he tried to reason it.
Unconsciously, Yuuta dashed to her side.
"Oi, Hina! Come on, Hina! Oi, Hina... oi, it’s a joke right...? Why, why aren’t you breathing, oi, HINA!"
Yuuta shout made the student started to gather around him.
In the middle of the crowd, hugging Hina’s body on his arms, Yuuta howled.
"Hinaaaaaaa!"
Even though he believed that everything was about to begin.
The rose coloured life that he imagined were destroyed into pieces due to the sadness and helplessness.
Yuuta started to shed tears as he hugged Hina’s body that started to get colder.
Aah, this world is filled with despair.
"Hina... Why, this happening, Hina... Please answer me... Hinaa..."
A little bird stopped to sung, and fell to the ground.
That was how this world’s work after all...
(Ah, she’d failed…
Once again, Hina failed…)
The black cat key holder that hang on Hina’s bag started to move.
It cover its face with it’s paw, and slowly mutter.
"You have to start it again from the beginning..."
... Even then.
Again, again, she had to try this no matter how many times she had to repeat.
For their sake, one girl and one animal, so that they could escape from this world.
But, an enormous wall stood before their path.
Just one, strongest and worst rule.
