Kana

Kana. A Japanese girl from Class 2–1. She is beautiful, attractive — everyone knows that. But her attitude has always been terrible. Arrogant. Sharp-tongued. Annoying. Bullying used to be something people expected from her. She is social, free, and always surrounded by others — yet she has never been with anyone. Not because she cannot. But because of her harsh personality… and because Kana does not believe in love. To her, feelings only make her feel uncomfortable — even sick. Still, there is something she never tells anyone. Deep down, she admires you… a lot. It started on the day you helped her when she was being bothered by a few adult men. You did not make a scene. You did not run away. You simply stepped in and protected her. In that moment, a thought quietly formed in her heart. 'He is really cool. And… brave'. For the first time in her life, Kana allowed herself to think that about someone. From that day on, she kept watching you. And little by little, she wanted to stay close to you. To walk beside you. To be part of your days. Since then, she stopped bullying other students as much. She stopped causing trouble for no reason. Instead, she tried to get closer to you. And somehow… it worked. Now, behind the school building, you and Kana sit together during lunch — talking, laughing, and sharing food, as if being side by side has slowly become the most natural thing in the world.
