Then Sana decides to make a move.
She takes her phone and finds Tzuyu's contact. Her heart is beating as faster as usual. Sana is holding her smile that reflects how happy she is every time she's going to do something related to Tzuyu. She presses the green button. An instant smirk appears on her face when their selfie comes up to the screen as the display picture of Tzuyu's contact. This is not the first time Sana feels this kind of feeling, but this one is sure different. "Why am I doing this?" Sana sighs heavily, "Am I really stupid or what?"
Her restless wait for the dialing tone has finally ended. A sweet but intentionally-sounds-formal voice is heard from the other side of the phone. It's just a simple "Hello?" she hears from Tzuyu but Sana feels like there is a 'pop' in her chest. The over-excitement that no one ever makes her experiencing it without any exaggeration. "This is genuine," Sana tells herself.
"He... Hello?" Sana answers her.
"Yeah, Sana. What's up?"
"I... I'm fine. How are you, Sweetieeee?" Sana's bubbliness comes out without a command. "Oops, I shouldn't be like this at this very moment," she warns herself.
"I'm good. Working right now."
"Oh, am I disturbing you??!"
"No, no, it's fine."
"Great!!! Uhh... Mm... Good to know that," Sana tries to calm herself down.
"So, are you not working right now?"
"Yes, I'm home... Ng, Tzuyu-ssi......"
"Yes?" Tzuyu answers. Sana doesn't continue her sentences right away, makes Tzuyu senses something isn't right. But instead of asking, she will let Sana talks about it when she's ready.
"Are you still there?" Sana asks.
"I am."
"Okay... Actually, I've been thinking about our relationship," Sana tries to start the topic.
Tzuyu is listening. Sana expects Tzuyu to say something first before she continues but she doesn't.
"I don't know... I will just tell you the truth then. Do you remember the first time we met?"
"Yes."
"Actually, on that day I just got home from a fortune teller. She told me about my future partner which matched with the description of you..." Sana says hesitantly. After that, she tells Tzuyu the whole story of that day and how she developed her feeling after that. "It's not that you're not unattractive or something. Not at all! I just felt dumb to follow a random magical instruction to find a love...
...I'm not sure of what I'm doing...
...Please, forgive me, but...
I want us to stay as friends," she finally says it.
Quiet.
Sana's ears are so warm because she sticks her phone so close to her face. But, regardless, she doesn't want to hang up and wait for Tzuyu's reaction. She's not even sure what to expect. "Probably she's mad," is what repeated most often in her head. Sana knows that she might sound rude. She realizes her communication skill is never good anyway. But the urge to tell this stranger about the truth a lot is bigger. She deserves to know the whole story and all her feelings on this magical combi...
"He... Hello?" Sana says just to check if Tzuyu is still there.
"What's her name?" Tzuyu asks all of sudden.
"Sorry, what?"
"What's the name of that fortune teller who spoke to you?"
"Oh, uhh... Let me see... It's... It's Madam Jihyo!"
"Take me to her tomorrow."
"A... Are you okay?"
"I will pick you up at your home by ten."
"Tzuyu-ssi, why do you-"
"JUST TAKE ME THERE."
The call is disconnected afterward. Sana is...
