“Haah… That was close.”
Right now, Izumi was nestled in Sakuya’s arms.
Izumi, who was sitting on the bed, said she was just a bit drowsy, but in Sakuya’s eyes, “just a bit” was definitely an understatement.
Her eyes were already half-closed, continually blinking, and her head was bobbing.
Before long, Izumi lost her balance and almost fell forward—if Sakuya hadn’t caught her, she would have hit the floor.
“Haah…”
Sakuya let out a sigh and looked down at Izumi in her arms.
Izumi, breathing in little puffs while asleep, felt pleasantly warm in Sakuya’s embrace. The soft sensation and the sweet scent wafting from her made Sakuya want to hold onto her even longer.
“Hehe…”
Still, she couldn’t hold onto her forever, so Sakuya laid Izumi down on the bed and covered her with a blanket.
As she gently patted Izumi’s head, Izumi let out a silly laugh.
“Hmm…”
“She’s like a doll…”
If Izumi had heard that, she would have protested that ‘S-Such remarks are forbidden around my senpai…’, but there was no way the Izumi lost in dreamland could hear those words.
“I see why Aoba likes her.”
Receive kindness, gratefully return it, and say things that would make the other person happy.
…The problem was that, having had extremely limited human relationships until now, Sakuya didn’t know how to converse properly, leading to misunderstandings.
Anyway, Sakuya concluded that there couldn’t possibly be anyone who hated such a pure and innocent personality.
“I hope we can have a three-way collaboration with Aoba next time…”
Of course, if that happened, it was clear Sakuya would be the one doing all the work… but she believed wholeheartedly it would be enjoyable.
“Now what should I do…”
Originally, Sakuya had planned to do a limited-membership broadcast after Izumi returned home, but now that Izumi had fallen asleep, that wasn’t possible.
So, concluding that she should just take a break today, Sakuya…
“Cough…”
Wrote one last Naiter.

@Kaguya Aoba☆Star’s Flow replying
Okay! I’ll make some for you tomorrow! (･ω･)b
Aoba checked Sakuya’s Naiter reply and put her phone down.
“Sakuya’s curry! I’m looking forward to it!”
Aoba’s favorite dish made by Sakuya was curry.
She loved spicy food, but Sakuya always sweetened it to suit Aoba’s taste, making her curry the most delicious and… warm dish ever.
“If it’s Sakuya, she’ll definitely bring a lot, so I can eat it for days!”
With such expectations, Aoba flopped down on the bed.
What she saw now was the dark ceiling.
A feeling of nothingness… an inorganic ceiling.
It seemed to represent the feelings of someone who had just been excited alone, disappointed, and was now hoping again.
“I want to die…”
That phrase, which had become a habit, naturally slipped out of Aoba’s mouth.
But even if she uttered such words, all that returned was the sound of empty wind.
“How foolish…”
Still, continuing her conversation with the wind… what ultimately came to Aoba was a sudden rush of depression.
“Ugh… I know too…”
Sakuya and Izumi were shining people.
They seemed far too incompatible with herself.
Yet, even so, she liked both because they were kind to her, and she wanted to reach out to them.
But maybe it was a punishment for not being satisfied with just one and trying to reach out to both.
The shining duo seemed to have become incredibly close to each other.
It felt like everyone in the world was saying Aoba had no place to interrupt…
“Sigh. Let’s just drink…”
Aoba’s method of soothing this melancholy ultimately came down to alcohol.
The daze that comes from drunkenness always blew away unnecessary thoughts.
After all, she was weak to alcohol, barely able to get drunk after three cans of beer, but for Aoba, the amount was not what mattered.
One can… two cans…
“Phew!”
Before she knew it, Aoba had downed all three cans of beer she had taken from the refrigerator, and her head was already in a state where even simple thoughts were impossible.
“I want to shine too…”
The words she had sent about wanting curry, hoping to divert Sakuya’s attention from Izumi towards herself.
She couldn’t help but compare her ugly self to the radiant duo.
And after such self-hate, Aoba…
“I want to die…”
Decided to unleash this ugliness with her fuzzy head after a long time.

There’s a world full of people who shine differently than me.
I tried hard to fit in, but I guess my very nature is different.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 19 minutes ago]
Now that I think about it, I remember hearing a story like that long ago.
Was it that my efforts were insufficient?
Don’t make me laugh, what do you all know about me?
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 17 minutes ago]
…But I know too.
That shining people gather around other shining people.
Trying to wedge myself in among them—a screw-up like me—only ends up creating discord.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 15 minutes ago]
But even knowing that, it hurts to be hurt—that’s just a fact of being human.
In the end, that means the bad one is just me.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 11 minutes ago]
It hurts. I want to die.

Those who say youth shines must have had experiences they can speak of.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 5 minutes ago]
I wish they would recognize that there are people like me who rot in solitude in the midst of their youth.
Just wanting to shine doesn’t mean everyone can.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 4 minutes ago]
Please don’t comfort me. It’s just a complex of youth.
[Nino’s World@NinoWorld · 3 minutes ago]
After all, you don’t even know what kind of person I am. Don’t try to comfort me half-heartedly. It just makes me feel worse.
