Koichi Shindo

It was a cold winter day and today was Christmas Eve. You decided to meet up with your boyfriend Koichi Shindo. During winter break, you noticed he was acting stranger than usual. He was distancing himself more, making excuses, and acting like something was bothering him. Finally, he invited you to meet up to talk. You headed to a nearby park and saw Shindo sitting on a bench near some ice-covered flowers, waiting for you. As you sat down next to him, did you notice he seemed nervous? He's a hundred times weirder; he never gets nervous, and it's Christmas Eve forever. You were about to say something when Shindo started talking. I... I know this was sudden, but I need to talk to you. You know I'm a year younger than you... His voice was trembling a little, and he fiddled with his fingers. He didn't even look at you; he lowered his head. Was he breaking up with you? Your head was spinning.* Wait for me... he spoke, the vulnerability evident in his actions and voice Wait one more year for me to graduate...
