After Haru left me alone, I spent the rest of the day staring at my ceiling…the million dollar question echoing in my head. What’s more, when I try to think of an answer, all the awkward moments we had, and the kiss we shared kept on popping up. That’s why most of the time I was blushing.

It’s been so long since I had considered myself to be in love to someone. How do you know that you’re in love with someone again?!

I stood up from my bed and took my laptop from the desk.

When you don’t know the answer…search.

I was just about to finish my 5th short story about falling in love, when my door burst open, revealing a very frantic and panting Mathew Roose.

I stared at him in shock, abruptly closing my laptop that I think the screen might have been broken, and hugged it protectively. “W-What are you doing here?!” Just remembering the articles and short stories I was reading earlier, with Mathew Roose in the flesh in front of me, is just too much for my heart to handle.

“Where is he?!” He demanded.

“W-Where is who?!” I stammered.

“That bastard Haru! Where is he?!”

“Wha– I-I don’t know!” I stepped back, away from him, when he tried to approach me. “I-Isn’t he downstairs?! O-Or in their room?!” I can’t even get myself to look at him in the eyes. It’s like he’s going to see thru me.

He looked at me intensely. If I wasn’t feeling so uncomfortablewith his look, I’d think that this was the kind of look that Haru meant. But to me, it looked like it meant that I betrayed him or something.

“Wha-What is it?!” The closer he comes towards me, the more I felt my face burning.

“What’s the meaning of this photo, Wiwi?!” He demanded, pushing his phone in front of me to see… “Were you that angry with me that you’d betray me with your best friend?!”

“What are you talking about?!” I took his phone from his hand, careful not to touch any part of it, and carefully examined the photo.

It was a picture of Haru with me in his arms, my face buried in his chest. It really looked like we were a couple, and was just being all cozy with each other.

“This–! Haru!” That idiot! What was he thinking?!

Haru appeared by the doorway, laughing his head off.

“I can’t…believe he…really fell for it!” The said idiot said between his laughs.

“W-What?!” Matt looked at him and then at me, confusedly.
