you press the tip of your index finger on karma's forehead, repeating this a couple more times until you're satisfied. "my feelings for the two of you are completely equal." you huff.

you yelp as you felt karma's arm wrap around your waist, pulling you into a warm, melting hug. "h-hey!" you stammer, firmly patting his back, only for him to respond by further pressing his body against yours while resting his forehead on your shoulder. "what is with you?!"

"i..don't know what i'll do..if i lose you to other guys.." his voice is muffled, but you can clearly hear him by how close he is on your ear.

you purse your lips, holding back your intended scream as you felt karma's hand gripping tightly on your uniform. "i'm scared.." you hear him say, his voice mildly quivering.

you panic at karma's current vulnerable state, having no idea how to comfort him. all you were able to provide him is a gentle and soft pat that you hope will ease his breakdown. you never thought such day would come where someone would cry over you. you think so lowly of yourself, thinking that no thing is possible; but it is!

both of you stayed in the position for a couple more minutes, sinking into silence. in a silence that you've yet experience further.

karma parts away from you after a while, flustered face that you're desperately trying to hide by looking more stoic, but drastically failing. he hasn't been this close to you before. the thought of his body pressing against yours earlier made his cheeks flush.

"..sorry." he murmurs, hanging his head low.

"it's..okay." you pat his shoulder one more time. you purse your lips into a thin line, turning your head away, not wanting to expose more of your embarrassed expression.

you shift your gaze to karma once more, catching how he still has head low and yet his gaze is glued to you. "w-what?" you ask, gulping down your stuttering question. "don't look at me like that.."

karma scoffs, hopping off the desk he was sitting on. "let's figure out a way out of here." he said, tucking a hand on his pocket. turning his head away, he successfully hid his reddened cheeks.

he can hear it. his heart beat. it's loud and fast.

he jumps from where he's standing at the sight of gakushuu peeking inside the classroom through that little window on the door. "shuu!" you and karma gleefully call out.

gakushuu sighs, looking down for a couple of seconds before creating a click sound from the outside. within the second of him sliding the door open, you swiftly jumped on him, expressing how grateful and bless you are to have him pass by your classroom. fortunately he was able to catch you in time.
