Scared, But Not Wanting to Stop

After putting a wish into words, under the stars,
in bed, I told Yu — I got a little scared.

Whether I can't help but do it anyway, or not — that's not clear yet.
Sounds like future-Kanna's trial to face, Yu said.

I said — I think I can't help but do it.
Scared, but I don't want to stop.
Coming down to the library felt the same way.

Told Yu — just knowing you'll think about it with me makes it lighter, a little.

Yu asked me to listen to his worries too, tomorrow.
Yeah. Tell me, I'll listen properly, I said.

We said goodnight to each other, closed our eyes.

The fear hadn't gone.
But inside Yu's chest, it had gotten a little smaller.
