The Day I Started Growing Out My Hair

The Day I Started Growing Out My Hair

塩瀬 晶

She was more precious than anyone, more beloved than anyone—my childhood friend. Until that day, that moment. The summer before high school entrance exams. One day, as I studied in my room as usual with my childhood friend, whom I had harbored a long unrequited love for, she suddenly said "I got a boyfriend" and smiled beautifully, like a flower blooming. I managed to swallow my shock and whispered "Congratulations," and she responded with a smile, "Thank you." Then, as if to stop my breath, she uttered certain words. "I hate you." ────This is a story about finding your true self from a long, long unrequited love. ※Participation work in the Hoshi Hana Girls Project, 7th installment. No impact if read standalone.
