*Iofi POV*

I decided what I should do almost immediately. I went up to Reine and pulled her into a hug. She seemed a little surprised but also happy.

"I apologize for breaking down." She said

"No, don't apologize!!!" I told her.

Reine sniffled, and she leaned in almost as if she were going to kiss me, but she didn't. My heart skipped a beat when I realized how close we were to kissing.

"Reine, were you trying to, uh, kiss me?" I asked her a moment later, and she looked at me shocked.

"Kiss you!?" Reine said loudly, "I'm not ready to even try to be in a relationship yet!" She told me

"I'm sorry!!!" I cry I didn't mean to assume she would be making an advance on me so soon after what happened with her.

"Iofi, don't worry. I think I've been too clingy," Reine said.

She pulled away from me and walked forward. I stood there silently. What just happened?

"Are you alright?" Zeta asked me

"Yeah..." I softly said.

"You don't look alright!" Anya told me

I thought about what to say and took a deep breath, deciding how I'm going to explain this. I have to figure something out here.

"I feel a little bit odd. For some reason, I thought Reine was making an advance on me, and she also said she shouldn't be clingy with me anymore, but I don't know."

"Oh, are you a little skeptical about whether you should let her cling to you or not?" Anya asks

"Yes, I'm a little worried about what would happen if I made her a little too dependent on me, but I am also really sorry for her. I want to help her!" I said

"Maybe you shouldn't pity her." Anya said

"Pity her." Am I pitying her?

Reine was stumbling and having trouble walking a bit. Mumei grabbed onto her and began to lead her so she wouldn't fall.

"Be careful!" Mumei said

"I'm fine..." Reine mumbled

"Am I really pitying her?" I ask out loud.

"Do you think you are?" Zeta asked

"Maybe I am, but I can't help but be worried she is hurting herself, and I don't want to see her suffer like this!" I said

"So, what are you going to do?" Anya asked

She said she didn't want to rely on me, but I think I should still help her because I'm so worried about her. I don't want her to get hurt, and I want her to recover.

"I want to help her!" I said

"But she said she shouldn't be clingy." Anya claimed

That is true; she shouldn't be clingy, but I don't think that means I can't be clingy. She really wants to move forward.

"Should I help her?" I ask

"Do whatever you want!" Zeta said

I want Reine to have fun today, so I need to pick the right thing-something that I think will make her happy-but what is that?

What should I do?
