"No. This is impossible."
"What is, _____-san?"
You could hear the smug undertone in his words as you buried your face in your hands, racking your brain for any valid answers as to how your Japanese friend had pulled it off.
It truly was impossible – at least, that was what you thought – for Kiku to do it.
Staring at the intimidating Jenga tower, your eyes focused on the very bottom layer, in which Kiku had somehow managed to take out two of the blocks; the middle block and the block to the right, leaving the tower to balance precariously on the block to the left.
You didn't have a PhD in Physics or whatever subject it was that dealt with gravity, but it was safe to say that you probably had an imaginary Master's Degree in Common Sense, and what you were seeing right now defied every aspect of it.
"Why did this thing not fall!?" you exclaimed, thrusting a finger at the stack of wooden blocks. "Kiku, did you tamper with my Jenga pieces or something!?"
"I don't really understand how one can tamper with Jenga pieces, _____-san." A light chuckle bubbled up from his throat. "I do believe that it was merely my own luck that prevented the tower from falling."
"You're trying to tell me that this is luck? Kiku, do you have some gigantic collection of four leaf clovers that I should know about? Because I'm pretty sure that pulling a trick like this requires a ton of luck!" you whined. "This is so impossible! This tower is defying gravity, Kiku! It's defying gravity! Isn't that a law of nature of something!? That means this Jenga tower is breaking a law of nature, and therefore it is an illegal Jenga tower!"
"I think you're over-exaggerating this, _____-san." Picking up the piece that he had successfully managed to take away from the tower without having it collapse, he glanced at the printed words on it.
Staring intensely at the Jenga block Kiku was reading, you hoped he'd gotten one of the bad questions for going against gravity (because honestly, you thought it was a bit unfair). On each Jenga block was written a question, either good or bad; whenever someone took out a block, they must read the question and answer it truthfully, making the game more fun than it already is.
"Well?" you prompted him. "What does it say, Kiku?"
He let out a somewhat awkward cough.
Oh.
Oh yes.
You couldn't suppress your smirk.
He'd probably gotten one of the embarrassing questions!
"Um... 'When and where was your first kiss, and who was it with?'" Kiku recited, just barely loud enough for you to hear.
Arching an eyebrow, you crossed your arms and leaned against the table, careful not to move it so that the Jenga blocks wouldn't fall down. Knowing your Japanese friend, he probably didn't have his first kiss yet – the man was really protective when it came to his personal space – so you didn't really expect much of an answer.
"Have you even had your first kiss yet, Kiku?" you questioned, voicing your thoughts. "Or are your lips still a virgin?"
"You have a really strange way of wording things, _____-san."
"Don't avoid the question."
"I, um..." Kiku started to squirm around in his seat, becoming flustered beneath your gaze. "Ah... yes, I have had my first kiss."
