Chapter 11: Tokyo serenade

“Ryo, will you sing for me?” Ellie suddenly suggested while they were at the couch sitting side by side. Ryo looked at her oddly—then he smiled.

“Sure…" He cleared his throat and continued. “The title of this song is code, which is sung by me.” Ryo winked at her and made a peace sign. Ellie started to clap her hands happily.

Ukibori ni natteku chimmoku yabutte kureru kara

Chigau dareka no hanashi de geragera moriagatteru furi eru
