บท 207: The Right Entrance

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 

Crystal had often heard that when you truly love someone, you're willing to give them up if that's what it takes for them to be happy.

She'd felt that although it was a bit of an overgeneralized statement, it was still somewhat true. Of course, she hadn't been too interested in love herself at that time, and hadn't looked at it from a personal perspective.

But after meeting Emilia, the blonde girl realized that love came in many different flavors, and what she felt… was definitely not the selfless kind.

Crystal realized how vast the gap was between Emilia and herself, which was why she had tried to deny her feelings at first. However, now that things had changed — even if the credit for that again went to the very same girl — how could she let her go?

The only way she could convince herself to give up… was if Emilia herself turned her down. And even then, Crystal wasn't so sure if she would be able to remain resolute.
