Heh…This is a weird piece…Like it, review. Don't like it, don't review. And if you flame me, I'll just laugh. In fact, I dare you to flame me!
Little Chat
PLUNK

The blue-haired boy sighed, staring at
the ripples his pebbles had caused in the still lake.
If I look hard enough, I can
see her face in the water…
"Hey, man."
The young man whirled around to be
confronted by…his best friend. He
greeted the red head with a noncommittal "Hey."
"What's up?"
"Nothing much."
"Don't give me that. You're thinking of her, aren't you?"
"How'd you guess?"
"What else could make you so
depressed?"
"Not much. And nothing here in the real world is on that list."
"Except her."
"Yeah."
The red head walked over to his
friend and sat down next to him on the pier.
"Want to talk about it?"
"Why should I? She's in love with Blond-boy."
"How do you know that?"
"I have eyes, you know."
"So? I've talked to them about it. They both claimed they were just friends."
"Uh-huh."
"Hey, it had the ring of truth."
"Suuuure it did."
The red head looked at his friend
for a moment. Although he knew his
friend was given to periodic bouts of depression, this was a bit extreme.
"Listen up, man. Tell her. You have nothing to lose, and maybe something to gain."
"Hmmm…Didn't you use to have a crush
on her?"
"I got a good thing going with
Miyako now. And I never liked pink all
that much, ya know?"
"You and Miyako?"
"Yep. Nothing all that serious, ya know. Just friends. Anyway, talk
to her. How do you know unless you
observe for yourself?"
"I'll…have to think about it. Thanks, Daisuke. See ya later."
"Yeah, see ya, Ken. Good luck with Hikari."
