After today, they might never see each other again. The thought of this made Hannah’s heart ache. She really wanted to continue studying here.
She wanted to see Leon Batton’s face every day. Even if she had to do so from a distance, she already felt satisfied.
From the moment Hannah started liking Leon, seeing him had become the happiest thing in her life. After thinking about it, Hannah realized that nothing would happen between them anyway.
Anyway… They’d still have to part after they graduated from high school. Hannah had to learn to accept this fact and get used to it.

Leon knew he was already late. Hence, he kept trying to speed up…
