Wakatoshi Ushijima had by far been one of the most difficult people to converse with that you knew of. Usually he'd return with a brief remark or a nod or a shake of his head, but you wanted to hear so much more than that. You knew he had those heartfelt sentences somewhere in him, but maybe he was unaware of them himself.

On the other hand, you'd both be finishing off your last year at Shiratorizawa soon, so with what little time you had left, you had to say something. Soon.
