Also stopping, Naoya looked back at him. Takatsuki\u2019s intent gaze turned indigo right before Naoya\u2019s eyes.<\/p>\n<p>When his irises were fully subsumed by the color of the deep, dark night sky, he looked nothing like the childish, dejected person Naoya had been walking alongside until moments ago. With the bottomless night sky in his gaze, Takatsuki\u2019s handsome mouth turned up in a smile. \u201cI wonder what in the world that must mean.\u201d \u201c\u2026I don\u2019t know.\u201d Naoya shook his head. He forced himself to turn away from those eyes and down at his own outstretched hands instead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t know, but\u2026I\u2019m going to make sure I don\u2019t forget those words.\u201d Would he be forced someday to choose whose hand to take? If so, would Naoya be able to make the right choice? Looking down briefly, Takatsuki closed his eyes. His eyelids, hemmed with his long eyelashes, covered up the night sky. When he raised his head again, his eyes had returned to their usual brown. The professor sighed deeply, as if exhaling from the very bottom of his chest, and then gazed back at Naoya once more.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFukamachi.\u201d \u201cYes?\u201d \u201cOur trip\u2026 Are you excited?\u201d As he spoke, Takatsuki\u2019s eyes narrowed a little. Tooyama had told him not to go. Sae had basically said that trials awaited him if he went. Perhaps not going was the better option. Maybe this moment was his last chance to call it quits. And yet\u2026 \u201c\u2026Yeah, I am.\u201d After a long moment, Naoya answered. Yes\u2014if they were going to uncover the truth, it was going to be together.<\/p>\n<p>Next week, they were going to Nagano. 1kitap1.com\/en \u2014When he came to, Naoya was running through the dark mountains, being led by the hand. Or maybe it was a forest, and not a mountain? Why he was there, he hadn\u2019t the faintest idea. All he could make out were pitch-black rows of trees looming in the night. The underbrush rustled with every stride he took. Almost tripping over protruding tree roots time and again, he kept running.<\/p>\n<p>Naoya didn\u2019t know why he was in such a place; he only knew why he had to keep moving. They were running away\u2014the two of them. He could sense the presence of their pursuers. If they caught him, there would be no getting away. Of that, he was keenly aware. Despite his maddening fear and anxiety, there was reassurance in the hand firmly gripping his. His gaze followed the flow of that hand up its arm to a familiar back\u2014Takatsuki\u2019s.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Translation by Katelyn Smith This book is a work of fiction.
