She stared out of her dorm window.
How do you confess your love to someone? She thought.
She was in love with a boy who wasn't the brightest of her friends, but she liked him because of his attitude, not his grades.
She wondered why her friends always fell for her brother, and why they never had trouble showing their love.
Her brother had been helping another boy win her heart, but she was his friend, nothing more.
Sometimes, he can be a little rude to her crush, and he actually forced her into a duel. If she lost, he would be her boyfriend.
Why did she have to be the one with relationship problems? Why didn't she have the courage to go up to him and say what she wants?
She sighed, and decided to go visit him.
At his dorm, no one was there, except for him.
It was mid-afternoon, and most people were off the chat with their friends.
Why is he here, alone? It's as if he was waiting for me to come…
"Hey, Asuka!" he called, interrupting her train of thought.
"Hi, Judai."
"So… what's up?"
She ignored his question. "Why aren't you with Sho and the others?"
"Oh, that? Hane Kuriboh and I had a feeling that you were going to come see me."
Hane Kuriboh? He can sense it too? She thought.
"So… what did you want to talk about?"
"Judai, I-I." she sighed. "I kinda like you. A lot."
"Really? Wait, you mean 'like' like?" he asked, blushing.
"Y-yes." She blushed too.
"Remember what I said during our first duel?"
"Oh, that little comment to Sho. I thought you were joking."
Flashback
(I don't really know how this episode went, and I'm too lazy to check it. This how I think the dub of episode 3 went.)
"Now are you scared?" Asuka cried.
"Scared? I think I'm in love…" Judai said.
End Flashback
"Heehee, I wasn't joking…" Judai said.
"Really?" her eyes widened.
"Yeah, I kinda 'like' like you too."
"You're not kidding?"
"No. Why, you don't trust me?"
"No! It's not that, it's…"
"It's what?"
"Oh, nevermind."
She sighed. "I guess I've been thinking. This has been one heck of a year, don't you think? Seven Star Assassins, spirit keys and sacred beasts? I mean, come on, if we told that to anybody, they might think we were crazy!"
"Yeah, but we know that it's true, and you never know, it might happen again, even tomorrow. Just remember, never give up if that happens. Tomorrow is always a new day…"
That was one of the rare occasions when Judai actually said something intelligent.
"Judai?"
"Yeah?"
She laughed. "That was probably the first time I heard you say something smart."
"Hey!" he cried jokingly.
You'll search for your own place
Which is still invisible, and keep walking
The heartbeats in your chest
The upsurge echoing so strongly that it can't be hidden
Let's believe in the future (tomorrow) more than the past (yesterday)
And live in the present (today)
Don't be hanging your head, spread your wings and soar up
Wake up your heart! On any day, always! The sun rises
If you believe in your hot feelings
Stand Up! If you start running Non Stop! Without stopping
You'll aim for the world that you dream of
And run along as you have strength
The great endless insecurity that awaits ahead of this path
Searching your future
If your grip onto your dreams and hopes and advance forward,
Then you won't be afraid
Let's face forward, believe in our friends, and depart on a journey together
We'll aim for a new world, and now, start running from here
Jump out, jump up! Run through, Go way! You'll advance
Keep engraving the thoughts from back then in your chest
Shake Up! Without giving up, Do it! let's believe
Let's grasp it; someday
You'll be fulfilled, Wake up your heart
Wake up your Heart! On any day, Always! The sun rises
If you believe in your hot feelings,
Stand up! If you start running, Non Stop! Without stopping
You'll aim for the world that you dream of
And run along as long as you have strength…
