Masachika closed his eyes from reality. Without thinking deeply, he fled to the conclusion carelessly and was caught in the tragedy that “that girl is just like my mother, she has also betrayed me.” Then he labeled it as “an unpleasant memory” along with his mother’s memories and sealed it away. If only he thought more carefully than running away, Masachika might have caught up with the truth. “Ha-hahaha...” Masachika let out a dry laugh after being run over by a sense of disappointment. He inevitably felt foolish when he thought he was so hurt by a small misunderstanding. After seeing Masachika’s situation like this, Maria lowered her eyebrows with a sincere apology. “Umm... I’m sorry? I wanted to say goodbye properly in Japanese....but since I used unfamiliar Japanese, I must have confused you...” “Ahh... No, it’s all my fault because I was too quick to jump to conclusions, so Masha-san doesn’t need to worry about that...” Perhaps exactly as Maria said, her Japanese language skills that were not so proficient at the time might have caused the misunderstanding. But not least, there is a possibility that past memories have changed in Masachika’s mind. Especially childhood memories, which can be changed according to his own wishes, either in a good or bad way. However, which one is right? There is no way to know for sure now, so there is no point in thinking about it. “I’m so sorry...” But Maria apologized once again in a sad voice and gently hugged Masachika. Masachika almost gave up a very relaxing feeling...but the confession of Maria’s love replayed in his mind and he quickly felt uncomfortable. “Umm, I...” Maria nodded to Masachika, who seemed hesitant to speak, as if she understood everything.
