“I still never told you if I liked Hatori or not,” I’m pretty stubborn about this issue I think.
“No matter what you say, I know you like him,” Akimoto insisted.
“Hmph. Well then I can’t give you girl advice since I don’t like Hatori,”
But somehow, I think I’m better at lying about Hatori than other things.
“You heartless woman.
Hmm, then I guess I should just do it.”
“You will?!” I said, really surprised.
“Yes?” he said, surprised that I was surprised.
I raised my hand, and patted his head.
He looked at me with an annoyed face,
and then he asked what I was doing.
“Our little Akimoto’s growing up!” I teased, but I was happy for him.
“Oh shut up. You should go tell Hatori you like him already,” Akimoto started to walk again.
I stopped, but then just decided to spill the beans. I know I can trust Akimoto.
“…I think I’ll wait. I like how we are now,” I followed behind him.
“HA! So you DO like him!” Akimoto seemed pretty excited.
“Yes, alright I like him! But don’t tell anyone,”
“About time you admitted it. You’re so stubborn,”
“Shut up. Go confess to Koharu-chan already, Mr. Lovestruck.”
