Time was an interesting concept. It flew by quite quickly. Soon enough, it seemed as if the drama was actually going into production soon. It was still shocking that it was going to be made. I was definitely going to stay up to see what interesting thing it’d become.

This one day, somehow despite the fact that Sayachan always seemed to stay in that particular building, we actually went out to go shopping together. We went through lots of clothes. Unfortunately, I couldn’t exactly get to see her in new clothes.

I ended up trying a lot of clothes though. I ended up getting a cute bunny hoodie that matched with her penguin hoodie.

It wasn’t a date. I don’t think that this was a date.

Some of the events in it seemed like a date. I held affection for Sayachan, but it wasn’t yet a date anyways. It must’ve seemed awkward to some of the bystanders as only I could see Sayachan-I’d think. I could even clearly hear her voice somehow.

We sat down in a somewhat desolate park together, eating chocolate crepes. We both seemed to like chocolate after all.

“Hehe…it’s thanks to Mizuho-chan that I could go out like this.”

I bit into my crepe with a complicated expression. Did that mean that she used me to get off of the area she was stuck to? Some vengeful ghosts I had met before were like that, so I couldn’t help but be doubtful. I even knew that Sayachan was a kind person though.

She didn’t hear when I said, “…I don’t want to be used though…”

Honestly and innocently, that penguin hoodie girl smiled, “Mizuho-chan’s cute and kind. I’m glad you’re my friend even though I did die before we met.”

I smiled back. Sayachan was too sweet and kind. I wondered why she was even stuck on Earth because spirits are only stuck due to some sort of longing on the living world.

And I couldn’t help but hear her whisper, “…And, I don’t want to use anyone at all…because that’d be painful even if not intended to be painful.”

I didn’t know anything about her. She didn’t know much about me. I simply held onto her hand as we ate our crepes.
