Falling for a friend's mother might seem crazy, but I was serious about Iroha. Sure, I got rejected, but I have no regrets and believe it was worth confessing. Five years passed, and I'd grown up, becoming an adult. Iroha had become a widow after her husband's untimely death, finding herself single. Fully aware of the impropriety, my feelings remained unchanged from five years ago, so I confessed again.
