Bab 2: Chapter 2: A Clash of Hearts and School Halls
The next morning, the soft glow of dawn painted the sky as Minori sipped her morning tea, contemplating her love life. Her fingers hovered over the keys of her laptop, hesitating to dive into the realm of dating apps or blind dates. The fear of rejection gnawed at her, keeping her trapped in a cycle of uncertainty.
Across the city, Shou's alarm blared, signaling the start of another day. With a yawn and a stretch, he began his morning routine, thoughts of Minori lingering at the forefront of his mind. He dressed in his school uniform, the crisp shirt and neatly pressed pants a familiar part of his daily ritual.
As the school day commenced, the bustling halls of Shou's high school buzzed with excitement. Shou navigated through the corridors, greeted by classmates and friends alike. His popularity was evident, his affable nature drawing students toward him like magnets.
Amidst the academic bustle, Shou's three closest friends—Ren, Haru, and Aki—gathered around him, their banter filling the air.
"Did you finally confess to Minori-san, Shou?" Aki teased, a mischievous glint in his eyes.
Shou's cheeks flushed, his embarrassment palpable. "Not yet, guys. It's not that simple."
Ren leaned against a locker, a sly smirk playing on his lips. "Come on, Shou, you've been crushing on her forever. Time to make your move!"
Despite their teasing, Shou's heart yearned for Minori, though he knew the vast age difference posed a barrier. But his determination to win her heart remained unwavering.
Back in her apartment, Minori set aside her laptop, her thoughts drifting back to Shou. She had watched him grow, admired his determination and talent. Despite her attempts to guide him away from a romantic pursuit, his earnest advances persisted, albeit with a youthful innocence that both touched and puzzled her.
In the school halls, Shou dedicated himself to basketball practice, pouring his energy into the sport he loved. The rhythmic bounce of the ball echoed his inner turmoil, the court becoming his sanctuary amidst the whirlwind of emotions.
As day turned to dusk, Minori closed her laptop, uncertainty still clouding her thoughts. Despite her efforts to seek companionship closer to her age, a faint hope lingered that perhaps, against all odds, love might find its way to her, in the most unexpected and unconventional of ways.
Little did she know that amidst the dawn of a new day and the bustling school halls, fate was weaving a tale where hearts collided, dreams entwined, and love sought to bridge the gap between age and affection.
