Cloud Prince 「雲の王子」[Cell Phone Novel]

Fated Meeting (vi)

"Really?" I asked,
staring at him to try to see if he was joking or not.

I must have looked more serious than I thought, 

because I could see the boy hiding a grin with his hand.

After a minute or so,

he spoke. 

       "Say,

        what's your name?"

The question caught me off guard. 

It took another minute for me to come up with a reply. 

"Asami. Hoshii Asami...

What about you?"

The boy's expression was a mixture of intrigue and wonder 

--as if he hadn't expected me to actually respond.
A cheerful smile grew on his face before
he decided to answer my question.
