Episode 39:

February 24th 2024. The day is Saturday.

Sotsona just kissed Casimir's cheek for a photo.

The tourists that took their pictures leave them on their own.

Casimir awkwardly stands next to Sotsona, caught off-guard from what she just did to him.

He is all flustered on the inside, trying to retain his composure on the outside.

Casimir's narration:

Line 1) She... Just kissed me!

Line 2) Why did she do that?

Line 3) Doesn't she know by now that I get flustered easily?

Line 4) Especially in front of strangers! What was she thinking?!

Casimir tries to consider some logical reasons.

Line 5) What if she was just caught up in the moment?

Line 6) We were having a sentimental talk until the tourists approached us.

Line 7) She must've felt the need to act upon our discussion, feeling her emotions heightened from the alcohol, since she's obviously drunk.

Casimir tries to calm himself down, trying not to jump to conclusions.

Line 8) I must be blowing this situation out of proportion then if all she gave me was just a simple peck on the cheek.

Casimir squeals on the inside.

Line 9) But, regardless, this is HUGE for me.

Line 10) Sure, she may be drunk and so am I, but, she still seems to have control over herself.

Line 11) I should try to act as nonchalant as possible so that I don't create even more awkward tension between us.

Sotsona pokes Casimir's shoulder as he zones out from thinking about their kiss.

When she pokes him, he flinches dramatically, being shocked by her sudden presence.

Sotsona laughs from this reaction.

Sotsona

Line 12) Jeez. Why are you so jumpy? Can I see your phone really quickly?
