Another few months had passed at Kami's look out Goku and Midori-ko spend as much time with each other as they could.
Despite Mr Popo's encouragement and even Kami being agreeable Midori-ko and Goku still danced around each other and neither had confessed.
No matter how obvious it was that they felt the same about each other

It was a typical night as Goku and Midori-ko were hanging out in Kami's library.

" Midori-ko how about this book?" Goku asks taking down a light green book with a drawing of a peacock on it

" Oh Pride and Prejudice? I didn't take you for a hopeless romantic Goku " Midori-ko teases

" Excuse me?" Goku wrinkles his nose "Remind me what romantic means?"

" Well... romantic usually has to do with romance which basically is an expression of strong emotional desires to connect with someone." Midori-ko explains settling down on the giant bean bag chair that her and Goku would sit on every night as Midori-ko read through a book.

" So you mean when you want to kiss someone?" Goku asks holding eye contact with Midori-ko

" Yeah you could look at it that way." She nods opening the book as Goku sat down next to her on the bean bag chair "It is truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife." Midori-ko read with great speed and grace
Halfway through her reading Goku rested his head on her shoulder like normal absentmindly playing with her kimono sleeve.
Midori-ko stopped when Goku yawned.

" Do you want me to keep going?" She asks

" Please I like it when you read to me." He smiles sleepily

Midori-ko yearned to tell Goku how much he meant to her but couldn't come up with the words.

"As you wish." She nods

Goku's eyes were watery and tired as he gave her another sleepy smile before resting his head on her shoulder again.

" In vain I have struggled. It will not do. My feelings will not be repressed. You must allow me to tell you how ardently I admire and love you." Midori-ko read her heart racing but she grabbed Goku's hand and squeezed but she got light snoring as a response making her chest fall.
