The Fourth Class Is Modern Chinese (Continued)

Yuihama took a bite of a pastry, Isshiki lay exhausted across the table, Yukino carefully instructed Komachi on how to brew tea, and Komachi seemed a little intimidated by her enthusiasm.

The familiar teacups and dog-patterned mugs sat on the table. Beside me were my own cup and two identical mugs that were still brand-new.

Someday, the number of cups would change, their shapes would change, and even the view of this clubroom would gradually change.

I could still imagine what things would be like half a year from now, but one year from now was impossible to know. Two years, three years, or even ten years later, there probably wouldn't be a single trace left of the time we spent here.

And yet—

At that moment, a rich fragrance filled the room.

I looked toward its source and saw Komachi brewing tea under Yukino's supervision.

With her arms folded and her eyes narrowed, Yukino carefully watched Komachi's every movement. Slightly intimidated by her gaze, Komachi nevertheless brewed the tea slowly and meticulously.

Someday, this scene too would disappear, and everything in this clubroom would change.

Even so, there was one thing I could say for certain.

The scent of tea in this clubroom would never change.
