[Kanna you'd better hurry, 'cause there's 5 minutes left ....... ]
[You're right, I have to be quick ...... ]
Then Kanna got up from her seat and went down the stairs to get to where she had been promised .
[Basic Kanna ... You forgot this ].
Panicked or over-excited, Kanna forgets her used lunch box, fortunately Izawa will return it .
[But good luck ]
...----------------...
In a corner of the school, Kanna is face to face with Senpai whom she likes .
Under a large tree that covers the sun and plus a gentle breeze blowing makes the atmosphere to convey the feeling for the better .
Kanna deliberately set it up here whose place is far from the crowd .
With her cheeks becoming increasingly reddish and embarrassment peaking, she tries to tell her feelings to the Senpai .
[I can definitely ! come on Kanna say ...... ]
To increase his confidence , Kanna tried to encourage him and coupled with Izawa who had been encouraging him to make his confidence increase.
[Ayasaka, if there's something you want to say then hurry up, even you take me to a place like this , if others see it it could be a misunderstanding..... ]
The senior opened the conversation first with a sense of impatience and wonder . despite the rather rude way of speaking, but Kanna did not mind it , because indeed Kanna already knew him first .
[Before that I apologize for interrupting Akira-senpai's time, but there's something I want to say ....... ]
[What's up ? you better hurry 'cause I got some business to do ]
Then Kanna took a deep breath to calm down before finally saying her feelings .
[ Senpai ..... I like you, go on a date with me ]
Kanna lowered her head while extending her hand to her that Senpaya named Akira .
His heartbeat beats faster and faster, a sense of nervousness envelops Kannna, but he is also relieved to have conveyed his feelings .
Given that Kanna and Akira-senpai have been in a relationship for almost 1 year, Izawa is not the only friend of Kanna, with her personality she is easily liked by many people and makes many friends.
Later Akira is one of his many friends , after more than a year together & Kanna slowly takes a liking to Akira .
In fact they are often together, many people misunderstand the relationship between the two , they think Kanna and Akira are already dating .
After everything that happened , Kanna was very confident of being accepted , but that hope was shattered before her eyes .
[What is this ? is this your new joke ? ....... ]
[No Akira-senpai , ak—I seriously like you .... ]
The response from Kanna made Akira laugh while Kanna felt a bad premonition .
[ Haha ...... Look, Ayasaka, you're a stupid girl, very spoiled and always making things difficult for me, so there's no way I like you ...... ]
[But all this time we've always been together ....... ]
Kanna said with tears in her eyes, while Akira's laughter became increasingly broken hearing that .
[Ayasaka you are really stupid yeah .. I approached you because you were close to Shizue , that way I could be close to him .... ]
Kanna heard that just stupefied and shocked, her mind went blank and confused .
With a trembling voice, Kanna tried asking while wiping her tears .
[ Uh ? .... What do you mean ? ... ]
[I like Shizue, she is beautiful, achievers and coupled with her background make her perfect, but what about you ? you are stupid, deceived and your background is mediocre . That's why you can't be compared to him ...... ]
Akira is a 3rd grader with an athletic body and coupled with his handsome face makes him popular, plus he pretends to be nice to everyone to make his reputation good .
With all that many girls already expressed her feelings , but she rejected it .
Akira is ambitious and greedy, but he comes from an average family .
Therefore he is often considered inferior by other students who come from capable families . being inside at an elite school like Nadano definitely has a lot of such people .
But he considers himself great, and must find the perfect partner, and among the schoolgirls at Nadano's school who Izawa is the best .
If Akira can make Izawa his partner then his status will rise and financial problems will be resolved .
But Akira is aware that his rival for Izawa is many, even his rivals are better than Akira's, so he sees a chance to find out that Kanna is close to Izawa .
Akira will approach Kanna and Kanna will take her to Izawa , that way she can become closer to Izawa or so her mind .
Although Akira had already had lunch with Izawa because it was invited by Kanna, but actually Izawa never considered it , let alone care about it. Izawa had even forgotten about Akira's whereabouts .
Although Kanna is Izawa's friend, but that doesn't mean Kanna's friend is also her friend .
[If it was just that then I would go , it's just a waste of my precious time ]
Then Akira left leaving her Kanna alone .
Kanna's feelings crumbled as soon as she heard it , her mind became muddled from feeling it had been lied to all this time .
Feelings of hopelessness, depression, disappointment the longer the bigger . Kanna who is usually always cheerful now like a toy whose battery runs out .
[I've been doing hard learning, training hard, even doing things that can make me better .
But why , why am I always compared to Iza-chi in the end ? why can't I be better than him ? where am I wrong? ]
After muttering , a dark feeling began to appear in Kanna's heart, that feeling made her mind even higher able to think clearly .
[It's not my fault, it's Iza-chi's fault . if only he wasn't there then everything would have gone fine . right, from the start I wasn't wrong , the one who is wrong is Iza-chi ]
Right now Kanna is starting to think about things that she shouldn't have thought about , her mind is now focused on Izawa , even Kanna has forgotten about Akira .
[Right, if he were not around then my life would be quiet . I shouldn't feel depressed about always being compared to him ]
Since Kanna was close to Izawa , people always compared her to Izawa .
Maybe Kanna's attitude looks like a lazy and playful person, but in fact she is a hardworking person .
Since her parents are from an ordinary family , then she has to put in a lot of effort to attend Nadano and it works , Kanna gets a scholarship at Nadano High School .
Because of successfully attending school in class Nadano with achievement track, people think that Kanna is the one who will dominate school achievement .
But if Izawa's presence, everyone else's estimation becomes wrong, Izawa is the one who dominates .
It made people start doubting Kanna, although some of it was justifying her because Izawa was too genius . but it was a little bit disturbing Kanna .
[I always pay attention to school lessons, whereas he even sleeps during lessons .
I always study 3 hours every day at home, but she spends her time reading manga .
But why does he always get something I want easily, as if the effort I put in was nothing compared to him .
It makes me really sick, I have to get rid of it ]
Envy begins to eat away at Kanna's heart, Izawa who was originally her best friend is her enemy to be put away .
[Ahh right also, he said that if I go to the manga store . I can take advantage of that opportunity... Just wait for Iza-chi, I will get rid of you in my life ].
Kanna chuckles, the people who see her may think that she's crazy, but she doesn't care .
In the end the feeling of envy in her heart made Kanna really already lose herself .
...----------------...
The bell reads ', indicating that the break time is over .
[*Sigh* ....... Kanna where is it? , usually he's back* .
Oh yes, not that he said he wanted to express his feelings . is it possible that he was too happy because he was accepted or sad because he was rejected . but whatever it is I have to return his lunch box ]
Izawa is currently waiting at his desk for Kanna's arrival, as he has not returned yet while the rest is over .
Can Kanna be punished for being late .
But soon Kanna returned and sat on her stool without talking to her .
Izawa who saw it understood something .
[It looks like Kanna was rejected, although I don't know what it's like but I think it's sad ]
Someone like Izawa who is not interested in romance matters may not know the feeling of being rejected .
[Wait what's her name ? Kira ? Acra ? or Yamada ? ... *Sigh*... I forgot about it. Why am I so bad at remembering someone's name ?
Maybe because I'm used to ignoring people, my brain and consciousness are used to forgetting someone who doesn't make an impression on me ]
Others might think that Izawa would be angry because someone had made Kanna sad . but she was not angry with that person .
Because according to Izawa it is the right of a person to accept or reject Kanna . if you want to be accepted it must also be ready if rejected .
[Maybe I should cheer her up, I mean Kanna is my friend and if a friend is sad then we should comfort her .that's the thing I often read in the manga ]
Although Kanna is Izawa's friend or maybe Izawa's best friend, but it's still not enough to make Izawa feel Kanna is someone valuable .
Because in his opinion a friend would one day go his own way ', then that would mean Kanna would leave him later .
That means Izawa must feel the loss again .
Honestly Izawa did not want to feel it anymore .
She was still traumatized to lose her grandparents when Izawa already thought they were a valuable person to her .
Because now the teacher has come, making it difficult for Izawa to get close to Kanna's seat .
[After the last school bell rang then I would comfort her ... or not . maybe Kanna was being alone and didn't want to be disturbed ].

[Note \= now if the sentence of the conversation becomes italicized, like ;
[Kanna where ya? ..... usually he's back ]
That means a character who is speaking by speaking in the heart .
