Her eyes widen and her face turns red.
"W-what?"
She doesn't believe me so I pull her into a hug. She's so small and fragile. Her hair smells like flowers.
"Koichi."
She wraps her arms around me.
"To be honest I didn't really like Hikari anyways. I just wanted to make you jealous. I'm sorry."
"Well it worked", she says.
We both laugh.
"Hey", I say,"does this mean I have a girlfriend now?"
She looks up at me and smiles.
"I guess it does."
...
As we're eating dinner I realize I have to tell my parents the big news.
Honestly I'm a little scared.
"So Koichi how was you day?" Says my mom.
"It was good."
"How about you Eiji?" (That's my older brother).
"Eh eh same old, same old. I saw a hot girl today if that's any news", he smirks a little.
I reply back mocking him,"I got a girlfriend today if that's any news."
"Haha that's funny", he laughs.
"No I'm telling the truth."
Everyone at the table literally freezes, well except for Eiji he's laughing his head off.
"Koichi", says mom,"are you serious?"
"Yes I am."
"Well who is it?" Says my dad.
"Mitzuko."
...
My dad literally chokes on his food, and my mom almost spits out her drink.
In sync they say,"Mitzuko?!?"
"Yeah. Why? What's.. wrong?"
They both look at each other. I look over at Eiji to see his reaction but he looks as clueless as me.
"Mom? Dad?"
