"What happened Harumin?" Yuzu asked
"Nothing..." Harumin said. Yuzu looked at Harumin and leaned closely to her face
"Y-yuzucchi why are you getting so close to me?" Harumin asked blushing
"Hmm? I can sense you're lying..." Yuzu said looking into her hazel eyes. Harumin blushed deeply as she looked at Yuzu's beautiful emerald eyes
"It's n-nothing" Harumin said pushing her away. She trembled slightly as she saw Mei giving her a death glare telling to back off from her Yuzu
"Alright" Yuzu said and spotted Matsuri's friends
"Huh? Where's Matsuri?" Yuzu asked as she stood up from her seat
"Hey you guys! Where's Matsuri?" Yuzu asked
"Oh Matsuri told us that her grandmother called her to go back home" Furto said
"Oh she did?" Yuzu asked
"Yeah...I know it sucks" Sakira said. Harumin took a sip of her drink until someone came in startling her a bit
"Mind if we talk somewhere private?" Lina asked
"Hm? Why?" Harumin asked
"You know why..." Lina said glaring at her. Harumin sighed and stood up
"Fine..." Harumin said
"Where are you two going?" Asher asked
"We're just going somewhere" Lina said. Harumin followed Lina someplace empty where no one would hear them
"Please tell me this isn't about Matsuri..." Harumin said
"It is" Lina said
"Oh great...why do you want to talk about her?" Harumin asked
"Because I'm her best friend and I know you did something to her..." Lina said
"I know I hurted her but...I couldn't accept her confession" Harumin said
"You could've given her a chance" Lina said
"Why would I given her a chance? Besides she'd done many uncomfortable things to me. I don't feel safe when I'm alone with her. She's going to violate me or something..." Harumin said and shivered getting the chills
"But she loves you" Lina said
"It wouldn't work out" Harumin said
"How do you know it won't work out if you haven't tried giving her a chance?" Lina asked
"I just know it won't work out now stop wasting my time. I don't want to talk about it anymore..." Harumin said and turned to leave but Lina grabbed her wrist tightly and glared at her
"Hurt her like that again and you'll see what I'll do to you..." Lina said
"I didn't mean to hurt her like that. I was only telling her the truth..." Harumin said
"You'll regret it..." Lina growled
"Let me go" Harumin said getting out of her grip. Lina clenched her fists tightly and pulled out her phone

Matsuri
L- Hey...I talked with Harumi
M- Why?
L- Because...I wanted to try and convince her to give you a chance
M- Just forget it...
L- But you're my best friend and I'm worried about you
M- You don't have to worry about me. I'm fine
L- You say you're fine but you're not! I know you Matsuri!
M- Stop worrying about me. I'm okay
L- Are you still going after her?
M- What do you think?
L- Maybe you should give it up...
L- You can't keep going after someone who'll never love you back...
L- Matsuri?
L- Answer me!
L- If you don't answer I'm immediately coming to your place

Lina sighed and leaned against the wall. She looked at her phone to check if Matsuri answered but nothing.
Why did you have to fall for someone like her? What do you see in her? What makes her so special? Why do you love her?

Matsuri read the message and turned her phone off. She laid down on the bed and looked at the ceiling
"I'm not giving up. I'm going to make her mine" Matsuri said and closed her eyes.
How can I make her mine? Should I buy her gifts and chocolate? How can I win her heart?
Matsuri groaned and rolled around her bed. She pulled her phone out and looked at Harumin's number.

Senpai
M- Taniguchi-senpai...are you there?
M- I just wanted to apologize for everything I did...
M- Please answer...
M- Can we see each other tomorrow at the cafe after school?
M- Please...we need to talk
H- I don't think we should talk about it
M- Please...
H- No and I accept your apology but I don't want to talk about it
M- Senpai! I love you! Why don't you give me a chance?
H- Matsuri...I only love you as a friend. We will be nothing more than just friends...
M- But if you give me a chance you'll see that you love me more than a friend
H- Matsuri please...just stop
M- Why don't you want to talk about it? Is it because you love me too?
H- No I don't
M- But can we meet up at the cafe tomorrow?
H- I already made plans with Yuzucchi
