流れ星が落ちなくても、お祈りする

「 紹介してあげましょう?」

実はその時、本当に「ぜひ、お願いします!」と言いたかった。でも、あの人は妹の友達の兄さんじゃない?結構だが、妹は本気ではなかったでしょう?

...

Why am I even considering a non-committal proposal from a conversation I've already forgotten? She was driving, we were talking, and... What had led to that? The talk of Mori's birthday celebration? I really can't recall, except when she asked if I'd like to be introduced to him.

However apparent the misery of my current solitude, it was the first time someone had thought about pulling me out. I've heard only one stock lie which all those who comforted me spat out: that I'd find someone, surely, eventually, one day.

Instead of saying this to you, I'm saying it to myself now, silently inside my head. Yes, I'd like to get to know him.

A successful business man at the age of 2X with green thumbs who simply adores animals, his heart is as soft as the tofu which his complexion comprises. I've always thought that his younger sister is the cutest, and had a crush on their cousin for the longest time; a girl whom I truly found beautiful, unrivaled.

Small as this world is, I wouldn't allow myself to be caught in the grass-roots of close coincidence. Far away, I'd like to go far away from here. And I will.

I'm sleeping on the couch tonight.

...

誰かが欲しい。声が優しい人、心が広い人、笑い声が可愛い人、私が考えたら胸は暖かくなる人。
