This is ... the sound of emptiness. — Chica Umino

There were so many things I wanted to talk to him about.
And that I wanted to ask him about. But ... I kind of hated myself ... for feeling that way.
Because ... thinking about Nomiya-san ... felt like a betrayal of myself, of everything I'd felt for the past six years.

Then I'm going to find Lit and..."

"When I say it," I assured him, "it's poetry. — Rick Riordan
