She acts like she doesn't see me.

Looks the other way on purpose.

I ignore her too.


In the end, she stomps over to my table,

slamming her book down.

People stare.

She burns red.

"Idiot," she hisses. "Making a girl do this!"

"Oh? Fancy meeting you here."

"What an asshole."

I can't help but burst out laughing.

Her lips fight against the urge to smile,

trying to stay angry at me.

"Hey, Akiyama."

"Yes, Sakai."

"You know, the weather's great today."

"It really is."

"It's not supposed to rain for another week, you know?

"So?"

"Why are you here?"


She gives me a menacing frown

her nose scrunching up.


"Do I really need to say it?"

"Don't you know that boys are clueless?"


"They really are! Listen, there's this one super

dumb guy that sits across from me in the library..."


"Ah, I see. So that's how it's going to be, huh?"


She crosses her arms and continues to frown at me,

but underneath it all, I can sense a smile.
