After he had finished his conversation on the phone he looks to me.
"K-Koujaku... about what I wanted to say earlier..." he looks down and again turns red.
"I uh... I... Would you be disgusted if I were to say..."
He twiddled his thumbs around and fidgets a lot.
"Would... You hate me if I said 'I like you?'" His face was completely red and he looked up at me waiting for an answer.
His words had caught me by surprise and I clasp my hand over my mouth.
"A-Aoba." I call out to him but before he could register what had happened I pulled him close to me and indulged in our embrace.
"Hey, Aoba."
"Hm?"
"Would it be okay if I kissed you?"
"Wah! uh..."
He turned his face away and looked down.
"Y-yeah okay."
Hearing this I pushed some hair behind his ear, pull his head close to mine, and connect us into a tender kiss.
Just as our lips touched, something had to interrupt the moment I have been longing for.
"Wah!!!"
"Ew ew ew!!!"
"Gross they're both guys!!!"
Three small brats stand in the entryway of the shop thoroughly disgusted. "Wah!"
Aoba pulled out of our kiss to face the kids.
The girl sat behind the boys contemplating on the sight she had seen and the boys stood with confused yet disgusted faces.
"Why were you guys kissing?" One asked.
"Yea you're both guys, that's weird."
I walk up to stand in front of them bend down to look them in the eyes and smile.
"Because, Aoba and I like each other."
"Wah! K-Koujaku!"
I stand up straight and look back at him over my shoulder.
"Hm, is something wrong?"
"Well... uh... don't say it that bluntly... it's embarrassing."
"What we like each other don't we or, did you lie to me?"
"Well no." He looks down still embarrassed.
"Well... okay it is true after all."
I look back over to the brats and again smile.
"See? just because he's a guy doesn't mean I can't love him."
I look over my shoulder to smile at Aoba, and his eyes were fixed on me tearing up a bit.
"Koajaku." he called my name before hugging me.
"I'm so glad you feel that way too." He cries out and wraps his arms around my neck.
At that moment Haga walked in and saw the sight of a happy crying Aoba clinging onto a an even happier me.
"Haga-san, sorry I'll get back to work." Aoba quickly smiled while wiping his tears away.
"No Aoba-kun I can handle the shop from here onto closing."
"Thank you, Haga-san." Aoba smiled brightly again and grabbed a hold of my hand. "Let's go to your place okay? Koujaku." His fingers entangled with mine as his face blushed and his eyelashes flutter.
Easily catching his drift I smile at him this time a little more determined. "Yeah."
And at that moment we left the shop.
