(R-Raika ? .......She - she likes me ?!)

(D-Did she mean ?)

Raika's eyes dart away from mine. Her cheeks are still pink.

Maybe i'm just overthinking , she clearly said she likes my smile , my smile only...

Either way....

"..Uhm, well.."

just when i open my mouth..

"...Mmn?"

Suddenly , Her face returns to normal...

*Rattle*

She jumps out of the bench and grins devilishly at me..

"....Well don't misinterpret what i said.."

"I didn't mean anything special by it..."

(Well i didn't ...)

her words are unexpected my voice cracks..

(well , i knew it , but why am i dissapointed though..)

(What am i thinking ? Thinking that she likes  me ...? That's impossible right ? ahahah....ha...)

And before i know it , i was staring at her face intently..

.All traces of vulnerability are gone , and she smiles coolly again..

(W-was i reading to much , into this ?)

"....Are you okay now ?"

"Yeah..."

"Well , let's go home , okay ?"

Raika begin to walk towards the park exit...

"Come on , Mina..."

"Uh...Okay."

(....i guess i was just overthinking it...)

Just when i calm down..

Something flew out of the bushes.

"Whoa!"

"Kyah !!"

"R-Raika ?!"

By the sudden noise Raika cling over my and buried her face in my chest .

And then...

"A-are you okay, Raika ?"

I see some shadows fluttering around the light pole.

"R-Raika , don't worry it's just bats..."

"See? it's nothing...."

"Raika ?"

For some reason she's not leaving ...

"A-are you okay ?"

She gazes up to me.....The instant i see her face , it took my breath away..

Her face is even redder than before , she stares back at me with gleaming eyes 

"Mina......" 

the way she calls out my name is like she's begging me to keep her safe...

As my heart pounds fiercely another set of fierce heartbeat joins mine....

(Her heart is also pounding...well of course Sherlock i mean more than normal speeds, ...why am i explaining this to myself again...?) 

With a bright red slightly confused face....

She doesn't makes any attempt to break away from me...

She reach her arms behind my back..and squeeze me ever tenderly ..
