The air in the classroom crackled with anticipation. The annual school festival was just a week away, and everyone was buzzing with excitement. Jun, however, was feeling anything but thrilled. He was still reeling from the confrontation with Aiko, and he was worried about how she might react to the festival.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm73LcTkqfs

Yuki, sensing his unease, squeezed his hand reassuringly. "Don't worry, Jun," she said, her voice soft. "We'll be together the whole time."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ26uw8k9gq
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYwjA8EPIaq
Jun nodded, but he couldn't shake the feeling that something was off. He had been feeling a little insecure lately, especially after witnessing Aiko's relentless pursuit. He couldn't help but wonder if Yuki was truly happy with him, or if she was just being nice.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6afP4uGur0
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMA51RNJlTS
As if reading his mind, Yuki leaned closer and whispered, "I can't wait to spend the festival with you, Jun. It's going to be amazing."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6qONpS86G

Jun felt a wave of warmth wash over him. He knew he was being ridiculous, but he couldn't help but feel a little jealous when he saw Hana, his childhood friend, chatting with Yuki during their lunch break. Hana had always been a little too friendly with Yuki for his liking, and he couldn't help but feel a twinge of insecurity.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAiiYzVEPYI
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5qBFQsXe3E
"What are you two talking about?" Jun asked, his voice a little strained.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8TSWXCDP59
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsRxlLNiBB
Hana, oblivious to his unease, grinned. "Oh, we were just discussing the festival," she said. "Yuki has some great ideas for the class booth."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIehZi85IJ
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oey75pIn9
Jun forced a smile. "Sounds fun," he said, trying to hide his jealousy.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn9nosYA5wX
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVZGuLJ4lbh
He couldn't help but feel a little left out. He wanted to be the one talking to Yuki, the one sharing ideas with her. But he was too shy, too afraid to speak up.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpUng1Yvdcg

Later that day, as Jun was walking home from school, he bumped into Aiko. She was standing by the school gate, her eyes fixed on him with an intensity that made him uncomfortable.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyZRjUeUj4
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4WMkvj1b2
"Jun," she said, her voice soft and seductive. "I have a surprise for you."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApZaNQl8Lu
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvd7jFBiUxj
Jun felt a shiver run down his spine. He knew he shouldn't take anything from her, but he didn't want to be rude.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlqZ3ss99Eu
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dt44ZbuLc
"What is it?" he asked, his voice hesitant.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFG9MeSdBwn
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpSYyXM64Wi
Aiko smiled, her eyes gleaming. "It's for the festival," she said. "I made you something special."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRI6jO3fjk2
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpchjmKha32
She reached into her bag and pulled out a small, intricately carved wooden box. It was beautiful, but something about it made Jun uneasy.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡce9wDx4g4t
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNg6PtpeXWZ
"Thanks, Aiko," he said, taking the box. "But I don't think I can accept it."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxNTdpYjuHD
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJqfP6aJoJ
Aiko's smile faltered. "Why not?" she asked, her voice tinged with hurt.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9GPVQURRn2
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdwwqQpken
"I... I don't want to make things awkward," Jun said, trying to find the right words. "I'm happy with Yuki."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPZffVCRZpv
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHm0yPWl2tO
Aiko's eyes narrowed. "You're happy with her?" she asked, her voice laced with bitterness. "But she doesn't love you the way I do."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxAxjbJ1T9
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDRc1EHZdgc
Jun felt a pang of guilt. He knew Aiko was obsessed with him, but he couldn't help but feel a little flattered by her attention.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkazAezDRDi
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEvlFKM3z68
"I appreciate your feelings, Aiko," he said, trying to be kind. "But I'm happy with Yuki."179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmAMLeVmIx
179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdbcFxaz3o5
Aiko turned and walked away, her shoulders slumped with defeat. Jun watched her go, his heart heavy with guilt. He didn't want to hurt her feelings, but he knew he had to be honest with himself. He was in love with Yuki, and he couldn't imagine being with anyone else.
