Reflections: Kino Makoto

It's become a joke, hasn't it?
"He reminds me of my sempai," I say,
and everyone has a good laugh.
Well, chew on this, my giggling friends:
we've seen the future, haven't we?
Our mighty destiny holds no husbands,
no cozy home life, no children.

When my sempai left me crying in the rain,
I was just a girl,
and my biggest worries were,
that my boyfriend had left me,
and that my clothes were completely soaked.
Now... well.

So, I think about these things,
and when I see cute guys walk by,
they remind me of my sempai.
