Kumiko Akimoto sat in her seat, her hands kept stirring the coffee, and she quietly looked at the blue and purple face in a black suit in front of her...... Juvenile.

"Well, take the liberty of asking, who are you?"

The boy unbuttoned his suit and took a sip of coffee, the air filled with the fragrance and bitterness of coffee.

Suddenly, the boy stood up and walked down the aisle, bending down deeply towards Kumiko Akimoto, "I'm sorry! The sound echoed through the silent café, attracting many people to look at each other.

Kumiko Akimoto quickly stood up, "What are you doing here?" Please sit down. ”

The boy straightened up and shook his head, "Masako, I'm sorry, I won't mention my own name again, that will make me feel even more guilty." ”

Kumiko Akimoto had already guessed something when she heard the boy's words, but she still asked the boy to sit down and talk.

"Since it's in the past, let him pass, why bother?"

The young man with his head lowered raised his head suddenly, and his eyes burst into light, "You really don't care?" ”

Kumiko Akimoto nodded, "Yes, I'm doing so well now that I don't care about it for a long time." You just said you had something to tell me, what is it? ”

"There's something I want to tell you, but ......," the boy unbuttoned the first button of his white shirt with some irritation.

"If you want to tell me, please don't hesitate, it's getting late at this time, and I probably don't have much time." Kumiko Akimoto's adoptive parents' house is guarded, and it is impossible for Kumiko Akimoto to delay time because of someone who may have bullied her, and she will face the punishment of kneeling after the curfew time.

"Masako...... I'm sorry! I shouldn't have bullied you! The boy blushed, but he only said this.

Kumiko Akimoto frowned at the darkening sky, and her voice became a little impatient, "If you still only apologize, then I have to leave." Kumiko Akimoto stood up and wanted to leave.

"Wait a minute, Masako......" The boy stood up and stopped Kumiko Akimoto, who sat down for the time being under the gaze of the café guests again.

"Masako, I started apologizing because we bullied you before, and I apologized later because we bullied you later." The strange words that came out of the boy's mouth caused a trace of panic to rise in Kumiko Akimoto's heart.

"What do you mean? What do you mean by that? What do you mean before and after? If you are bullied, you are bullied, why apologize twice? ”

"Masako, it was true that we bullied you in the past because we were young and ignorant, and we used you as the object of teasing......"

"Young and ignorant? What is there in your place that you can cover up with a sentence that you are young and ignorant!? Kumiko Akimoto's face was a little hideous.

"Masako......" The boy swallowed, feeling even more embarrassed, and stood up again and bowed deeply to Kumiko Akimoto.

Kumiko Akimoto secretly wiped away her tears, "You go on, no matter what, I still want to know everything. Although there may be irreparable consequences for the words spoken by the boy, Kumiko Akimoto really wants an explanation, an explanation for the life she has been living all her life.

"Masako, I know we did something wrong...... Later, Hanasaki went to the orphanage, and at that time we liked to play around Hanazaki, and occasionally a few children who were looking for trouble were also stopped by a few older children in the orphanage, because they said that they couldn't let the cute Hanasaki see bullying or something like that, and that would hurt Hanazaki......"

That's true, that's right, during that time, those children didn't look for their own trouble, but they were very envious of the Suzu-chan who was surrounded by everyone and liked by everyone, and often secretly hid in the corner to peek at Suzu-chan, and they also used mud to pinch a Suzu-chan-like mud doll to carry with them, and even held them when they slept, just ......

"Later, Hanasaki asked us who the chubby girl who used to hide in the corner was, and we answered her, and she didn't say anything. It wasn't until later that you fell in front of Hanasaki, and Hanasaki helped you, and then when Hanasaki continued to play with us, a sharp-eyed child saw that Hanasaki had a wound on his hand, and Hanasaki said that he didn't know how to scratch it when he helped you......"

Kumiko Akimoto's eyes shrank, and she felt some heartache inexplicably.

"Please go on."

"At that time, a child said in front of Hanasaki that he would teach you a hard lesson, and Hanasaki stopped us, but the older children still led us to bully you when Hanazaki couldn't see, and at that time we searched for the clay doll you were carrying, and beat him up, and beat you......" The boy looked at Kumiko Akimoto with apologies in his eyes.

It's true that his clay doll was broken at that time, and then he didn't even dare to hide in the corner and peek at Suzu-chan, or when Suzu-chan was picked up by the Sakura country government to say goodbye one by one, he said friendly words of encouragement to me.

"Later, Hanasaki was picked up, and after a while, you were also ...... Picked it up. Those of us still stay in the orphanage and wait for us to go to work hard in society when we become adults. By chance, we met a few people talking about their lives in the orphanage, and one of the children told us that before you fell, Hanasaki saw that you often hid in the corner to watch her, and Hanasaki had already asked the child about your past ......"

The boy drank the rest of his coffee in one gulp.

"As you can see now, I'm struggling with a few big brothers, so I've heard a lot of rumors......"

"What is it? Don't stop, please tell me completely. Kumiko Akimoto's eyes glistened with tears, and her voice trembled slightly.

"Hanasaki's parents didn't die by accident at all, but Hanasaki did it."

"How is that possible!? You're lying, aren't you? You've been lying since the beginning, everything Suzu-chan has done to me and Suzu-chan's parents. Yes, you're lying, I don't know you at all, no, you're the one who bullied me before! Now, what exactly do you want to do now? Forget it about bullying me before, and now you still want to provoke my relationship with Suzu-chan! I see, it's fun that you're telling lies to deceive me just because I just bumped into you? I'm not Masako now, I'm Kumiko Akimoto! I'm Miko who attends the Aosa aristocratic school! Kumiko Akimoto's roar caused the café to whisper.

"I'm sorry, the reason why I'm telling you this is because of my apologies in the past, I don't want you to be kept in the dark and used by Hanasaki Suzu all the time, Hanasaki Suzu, she doesn't look so good......"

"No!! No!! You only know how to lie to me, you only know to destroy everything I hold dear, and I will not believe you! Kumiko Akimoto poured the coffee she had taken a sip on the boy, the cup smashed on the boy's forehead, and then smashed it on the ground and turned into pieces, Kumiko Akimoto ran out of the café in a panic and didn't look back.

"No, no, Suzu-chan is so cute and kind, Suzu-chan's favorite person is me...... Yes, Suzu-chan likes me the most, and I'm still waiting for Suzu-chan to come back, waiting for Suzu-chan to come back...... We're good friends, I can't doubt her......" Kumiko Akimoto stumbled down the road, muttering to herself and laughing slowly.

"Bang! ——”

"Ah!!h
