"Why can't you just forget about her?"
"!!!" Aki's question hit him like a bolt from the blue.
While he was enveloped in her hug, he couldn't see her face, but her emotions radiated through her words — anger, jealousy, and more.
It was a complete shock for Haru.
Stupefied, he was rendered speechless.
How could he fail to grasp the meaning of those words?
She knew about Miami, about those strange memories, and the fact that he had forgotten them.
Yet, she never mentioned them to him.
And not just that...
'Why... Why does she want me to forget them!?'
Abruptly, Haru pulled away from her and looked at her, gripping her shoulders firmly.
"You—" Haru wanted to ask so many things.
But one look at her face sent a shock through his body, leaving him speechless.
Her face was contorted with anger, a mix of various negative emotions bubbling to the surface.
