So it was about the end of their second summer .

"I wasn't ashamed at that time, and I apologise for that as well . Especially since you decided to help me later . "

Noriko shook her head . Her memories of what what had happened might a be a little shaky now, but she was certain the anger and pain faded long before those two girls were a.s.saulted .

"It's fine," Noriko said . "I don't think there's all that much to apologise for, but I'm grateful you did anyway . "

And yet Kuri really hadn't understood at all . A girl in love sleeping with the boy she wanted wasn't a reason for an apology, but Kuri had dragged Urufu into an ugly game with human lives . Noriko didn't know if she could forgive Kuri for that even if an apology came, because Noriko didn't know if she could forgive herself .
