Damn, was that really true? Kyoka tried to convince herself that it was just a feeling of friendly comfort that she felt being with you. Well, maybe her heart really beats like crazy when you talk to her, maybe she stutters when she talks to you, maybe she stares at your body when you change clothes, maybe she stares at you during lessons, maybe she doesn't sleep at night thinking about you, but that's how all girls behave with their best girl-friends, right? She hoped so.
After telling her parents about her strange feelings, they both said that Kyoka is head over heels in love with you. How it infuriated her when her dad teased her about it, almost every time he saw his daughter.
And today, you were assigned to patrol the same street together. She periodically looked at you, and then looking back at the road, afraid that you would catch her staring. Oh my God, how divine she is.. Wait, what?! She tried to say something, but she was afraid of screwing up. The silence between you was weighing on her.
"Listen.." she cleared her throat, looking down at her walking feet. "What kind of cheese do you like?" God, she sounded so dumb. Now you one hundred percent won't want to communicate with her and she won't have a chance with you at all. Although she had no hope, she considered you to be above her level.
