The boy didn't find the girl with gray hair.

In his heart, it was even somewhat expected.

After all, there is no such thing as a coincidence...

Every time I come here, I happen to meet a girl with gray hair...

…

But soon, the boy raised his head again.

He tried to remember the last time they met...

He looked at where the gray-haired girl sat last time...

He slowly circled the tree, moving little by little, not missing any angle from which he might spot the gray-haired girl.

He opened his mouth to call the gray-haired girl, but realized that he didn't know the gray-haired girl's name.

He hesitated for a while and finally shouted -

"Hello."

"are u there?"

…

The boy slowly stopped.

He has walked around the tree three times...and barked many times...

No response.

Too.

Even if people are nearby, they don't know it's them who is being called.

Without a name...

Who knew it was him who was calling?

…

"well……"

The boy couldn't help but sigh.

really.

Gray haired girl no-

"Why are you sighing?"

…

A somewhat familiar voice came from above.

The boy was startled.

Someone!?

But soon, the boy's eyes lit up brightly.

This voice!?

is not it-

The boy suddenly raised his head.

…

The gray-haired girl who didn't know when appeared in the maple tree, holding her chin in one hand.

She looked at the boy and raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Failed the test again?"

…

boy:……

He rolled his eyes angrily.

"No."

"The last time I failed the test it was an accident."

The boy explained.

That result is definitely not his true level.

…

"oh."

The gray-haired girl nodded.

…

"What I said is true."

The gray-haired girl's seemingly perfunctory attitude made the boy shout loudly.

"My grades have always been above average in the class."

That time, I ended up last in the exam...

That was really an accident.

…

"Then why are you sighing?"

The gray-haired girl returned to her first question.

…

sigh?

"Did I sigh just now?"

It was too late to be dissatisfied that the gray-haired girl did not respond to his answer. The boy was a little confused by the gray-haired girl's question.

How come he doesn't know?

…

"You sighed."

The gray-haired girl affirmed.

…

"oh oh."

The boy nodded.

He probably understood why he sighed.

"I'm looking for you."

The boy looked up at the gray-haired girl.

"I thought you weren't here..."

I feel very disappointed...

…

"You're looking for me?"

The gray-haired girl tilted her head.

"Why?"

…

The boy forgot to ask why the girl suddenly appeared...

He pursed his lips.

His expression calmed down.

He took a deep breath silently in his mind.

"I wanted to come and thank you."

…

"Thank me?"

The gray-haired girl blinked.

"Why?"
