In a room you could only describe as normal, two people sat on a bed, discussing. The two looked a bit awkward by the situation but tried to endure it. The boy seemed like he was daydreaming as the girl spoke to distract herself from the surroundings.
The two were Vel and Tia, talking about something inside Tia's room. Earlier, the two were going on with their daily lives with the new friend of theirs, Kazuki. But after their daily quota had been met without Tia helping since she left, they went back to their homes, with Vel being called by Tia to her own home.
"..el, Vel!"
The boy snapped out of his daze and immediately focused himself on Tia. He was too distracted by the fact that he was in the room of the girl he likes and was unable to control his perverted fantasies.
"Y-yes?"
"You weren't even listening!" She pouted, placing her hands on her waist as she sat.
"S-sorry…"
"No worries!" She smiled. "Now tell me!"
"Tell you what?" Vel asked in confusion as he was still not used to understanding verbal cues due to him not receiving any in the past.
"Tell me what happened!" Tia's eyes shined in curiosity, and she unconsciously neared her face with Vel's.
The two noticed, especially Vel, and both felt embarrassed and looked away from each other to hide their reddened faces.
That was so close!
Ahh!! What am I doing?!?!
They both had their own monologues in their brains and the room fell silent immediately. Both felt more awkward than ever, with Vel thinking about things totally appropriate for their age and Tia thinking about things she should only think about when she's of legal age, to be exact, marriage.
"I'm so sorry about that…"
"D-don't worry about it…"
The silence returned once more, but for an unusual amount of time. Eventually, Tia had enough of the awkward silence and yelled.
"Just tell me what happened earlier!"
Vel, who was deep in thought was startled as the girl exclaimed.
"O-okay!"
So, Vel narrated what happened a few hours ago to Tia. She looked quite interested and wore a cheerful grin while she heard Vel speak for an extended period of time.
The things that happened earlier wasn't much, but Tia felt like it's a big step in Vel's goal(which was imposed by Tia herself) to acquire friends and get over his slight fear of other people.
"...and that's basically it." Vel shyly looked at Tia as she stared at him with a smile on her face.
"This is great!!" She loudly announced, excited by the new things starting to happen in Vel's life. "If we both work hard enough, you'll surely get over your fears!!!"
Tia squealed in excitement, then spoke quicker than she usually would. The newly discovered behavior of Tia surprised Vel for a bit but he then smiled while Tia spoke about many things. Until a jaw dropping statement was dropped…
"...and when you have a lot of friends, we'd be able to invite them to our wedd-" Tia abruptly stopped before she could speak of her fantasies.
The two processed what was about to be said, and had their faces painted red. The tension in the room skyrocketed along with the awkwardness and embarrassment the two felt.
