Main character: Tresa(F) & Lloyd(M) //Time: Another221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCaFeRtbVG7
night //Place: A house in E city
********************************************************************************************
Moonlight221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4whCqKjIu
pierced through the thin clouds, illuminating the dark night. Lloyd stood by221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWjf08kaNpT
the window in his room, enjoying the rare sight of this natural nightscape. When221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYg6H54Sbk
he heard the sound of a door opening and closing nearby, he realized that his221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDFtY6SdI0
roommate, who had been confined to her room, had finally left. Quickly, he221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeBE0h5ZK7w
grabbed a box containing something he had just bought today and rushed out of221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTDnjCY2Xe
his room. He saw the back of his roommate, Tresa, heading towards the rooftop,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DyG2pUYmT
so he followed her shadow up the stairs.
When he221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡowRyexJAto
reached the rooftop, Lloyd saw Tresa, dressed in simple autumn loungewear,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbxKYLVLVY
leisurely walking towards a coach swing and sitting down. The swing was a221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZH1Uuw0pMv
recent addition by the homeowner, generously made available for everyone to221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59dHZKSixf
use. Tresa began to swing while gazing up at the sky.
Lloyd221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQUuR9BCaAH
approached the swing, pondering how to start a conversation. He looked up at221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXA0P0XnnvL
the night sky and said, "The moon is really full tonight! Even though it's221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQIV3Y9f7dF
an autumn evening, it's still quite warm!"
However,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBIOCnSY6Z2
Tresa, who should have heard him, did not seem surprised and didn't even look221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQTuInOOfE2
up at him, as if she wasn't aware of his presence. Although the swing was a221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdUGdODF2s5
two-seater, Lloyd chose not to sit with Tresa but stood next to her with his221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTW2WW8ddXC
hands in his pockets, trying to engage her in conversation. But no matter what221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0i740BGU06
topic he brought up, Tresa remained silent. Since Lloyd appeared, she had been221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVW1LepEvFQ
staring at the sky and never looked directly at him.
...Was it221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tvLLJUPdn
because of what happened yesterday at noon?
"Tresa,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMa5m0bsplW
I'm sincerely apologizing again!"
"Huh?221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94QS113EUJ
I'm not angry, don't misunderstand."
...She was221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ55ai5FdONN
definitely angry!
Since they221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAaUUTA6XVr
were boarding students, to avoid conflicts with other roommates and the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkRyqPdksMY
homeowner's family, all personal belongings, including food, had to be labelled221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTa0aG9wMcw
with their names. Otherwise, if left in public areas, they could be used or221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiyEViENOyo
thrown away without complaints. At noon, Lloyd had opened the refrigerator and221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz7OWmIOcd8
found a cake without a label or name, so he thought it was prepared by the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYTMjkpTMNa
homeowner.
As he was221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsVvK7s7tjr
enjoying the cake as a dessert, Tresa walked by, saw him, and angrily221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KMMXVviCK
questioned why he was eating her cake. Lloyd argued that the box had no name,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtBfxagGWMz
so it was the homeowner prepared. Tresa pointed to the left side of the box,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlKp8H3HifF
where Lloyd initially only saw the store's brand and a patch of red. Squinting,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOUefyFjrp
he saw "Tresa" written in fine red letters. The font was almost221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXjhrfjKfR
invisible due to the same color background.
Lloyd was221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAf2mrcMDy
unhappy and said, "Who could see that!? It's like not writing it at221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXClW9i5IC3
all!" Tresa angrily retorted, "I didn't do it on purpose! And I221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8tsWPitw9l
waited an hour to buy this limited edition cake, just managing to get the last221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡshGoEvNmdJ
one!" Their argument escalated until the homeowner intervened to mediate,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsf6yOM3juP
and they both quieted down.
Even so,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVrASWdoPzP
since Tresa did write her name, Lloyd knew he was in the wrong and wanted to221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsiz4ztRC8h
apologize. However, she suddenly picked up the remaining cake on the table,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnNKVhyO7lY
walked to the kitchen, and threw it angrily into the trash before silently221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTruFeAu8CE
returning to her room. It was so sudden that Lloyd didn't have time to react221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNQ8idzcBP
and could only watch her leave.
Feeling a221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK3x7QRz4nZ
bit helpless, Lloyd sighed. No matter how he knocked on her door to apologize,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV2eyWd8Kn5
Tresa's door remained tightly shut. He had to come up with a way to make her221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSh52RoBpWe
forgive him. He knew Tresa was straightforward, and if she was angry, it would221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX5awooHTRs
be hard to change her mind.
Finally,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHa5PydiK20
after a day, when he had some free time, Tresa stayed in her room the whole221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvegBLxU2n
time. At last, in the evening, she left her room and went to the rooftop. She221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjZal8KeDa
didn't even glance at him when he arrived, so Lloyd politely asked, "I221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVhBa6RqY2
know you're still mad, so I've thought of a way to make up for my mistake. Will221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJv7W5IWJl9
you turn around and face me?"
Tresa221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiLbSjeoCM
slightly looked at Lloyd, her expression serious. "What way?"
Finally221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiT3H85FMxH
looking at him! Lloyd smiled slightly and handed over the box he had been221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Ejl2i1S4K
holding. "I waited in line for a long time, so I understand your221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7MEwt4UhYs
frustration. I'm really sorry about yesterday. I didn't mean it. Please forgive221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMx6O9qrm3I
me!"
Tresa opened221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lSIqCiAU4
the box and was both surprised and delighted to see two limited-edition cakes221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVz7zA1Ze4
inside! She realized that she was also somewhat at fault, but she couldn't let221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJpAT1RoB7
go of her anger and felt both sad and regretful. She never expected Lloyd to go221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxOT234wcYE
to the neighbouring town and stand in line to buy them. Her anger gradually221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4bkaHD0s6E
dissipated, replaced by warmth and gratitude. Tresa nodded and smiled, saying,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiTS3iJv09s
"Alright! I forgive you, but I shouldn't have written my name so small and221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbDaZGVgicz
in same colour. Sorry for losing my temper yesterday. Thank you for the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr25A6oZTHQ
cakes!"
As the221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUqcvFTL7bd
atmosphere between them gradually eased, Lloyd pointed to the empty spot next221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKTiybdzyO
to Tresa. She moved aside to make room, and Lloyd sat down, leaving a small gap221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCHbSSJqN2
between them. However, compared to the beginning, the distance between them had221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa41LzGpLWj
become much closer.
"Well,221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKAmSZtk96
go ahead and eat!" Lloyd said with a smile.
Tresa221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ94XG6lHoeb
thought for a moment, then took one of the cakes from the box and shared it221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTCzb4Ia5pg
with him, smiling. "Here you go! Consider it your running fee."
Seeing her221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqyNUCXE4O
smile, Lloyd knew she had genuinely forgiven him. Happily, he accepted the cake221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIIxUB2tziG
she offered. "Then I won't hold back!"
They sat on221Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNnhw6K76l
the swing, eating the cake and once again enjoying the beautiful night.
