epilogue
I woke up with a bang.
The home screen of the mobile phone by my side tells me that it's past 3:00 in the morning. The TV that was left on had finished playing recorded programs and was left with the list of recordings.
I fell asleep with my contacts on, so when I blink, they rub against each other and hurt. I have to go to sleep soon. Today is still Wednesday and the weekend is hazy in the distance. I turned my stiff neck around because I fell asleep in a strange position and opened my smartphone to set the alarm.
The wrong characters displayed there. Ah, I remember looking at the lottery results I bought at the end of the year. I can't hit it. It's only 300 yen, so I just bought one. If that was the case, there should have been better things in my life.
"Oh, I wonder if I won 500 million..."
When I muttered that, the back of my head started to hurt. I wonder if I slept too much. Somewhere, I feel like a distant memory crosses my mind, but I can't remember anything. No, it's not far away, but rather a different version of myself somewhere closer to the world line...
"Well, I'm not a student anymore."
It's ridiculous that a grown adult thinks of chuunibyou in the middle of the night. With a wry smile, I set the alarm and turned off the smartphone screen. For some reason, I felt that the mundane daily life made me happy.
