It's melting. Whenever you called out my name, in that very instant, my heart was melting. So nonchalantly, as if there's no intention at all, to make my heart fluttered. So cruel yet sweet, that's the effect your voice had on me, Yocchan.
Looking at you covered in sweat as you danced together with the others really put me at a trance. With body that looked so fragile you moved as if the steps were created just for a promotion of your gracious movement.
The gentle touch of yours always left a lingering warmth that tingled my heart a lot. Just a bit of the contact was enough to make me fantasized about so many situations that involved us doing something, well, maybe naughty? That's just show how much impact you had on me, Yocchan.

Riko, still in her second year of high school, eyes looking through the window of her class while her being was tightly sat down, pretending to be capable of following the lesson her teacher gave that day. Well, the cause for such good-natured girl like Riko to be diverting her attention where it doesn't belong was none other than her secret crush. Her junior. Her fellow member of Aqours. Her fellow mates of Guilty Kiss. The one who always flicked the love fire inside her heart. Didn't know why, she just loved it when it came to her little angel.
"You just can't wait till break, huh?" You-chan from behind her, surprised the long-haired girl as if she knew what was going on inside that head of her friend
"Y-Y-You-chan! I-I-I-It's not like that!" she stuttered
"Yeah, you can convince me like that all the time with no success at all. You've been staring at her whenever you had the chance, don't you?" playfully teased the brunette as she carefully keeping her attention to make sure the teacher in front of the class didn't notice Riko and herself
"So Riko-chan is at it again? You sure loves doing this the hard way, Riko-chan…" From beside the ash-haired girl, Chika spoke as her mind started to be unable to follow the boring lesson
"Not you too, Chika-chan!" and with that, Riko knew that from that time up until their break, she would be assaulted with questions and teasing from both of her close friends

"Just what is their intention? I know that it's too apparent that I love Yocchan, but it doens't mean I have to confess, right?" Riko mumbled to herself as she sat on the bench while enjoying her meal she brought from home
And not even a few seconds after Riko said those words, the woman she claimed she's in love with came up from behind her and tapped her shoulder, which of course, earned a big squeak from Riko herself.
"Y-Y-Y-Yocchan…,, w-w-w-w-w-what are y-y-you doing here?"
"Whoa, you stuttered too much, Riko-san." said Yoshiko as she sat beside the flustered senior of hers "By the way, what are you, talking to yourself like that? Is there something that's been bothering you? If it's so, tell me and maybe I can help you?"
"O-Oh, i-i-it's nothing, really. I-I-I was just confused about a book that I read earlier."
"Is that so? Well, if it's nothing… "
"Y-Y-Yeah, it's nothing. Don't worry, okay?"
"You're only making me curious if you kept on insisting it's nothing like that, you know? Well, let's just say I let you off the hook for now cause there's something important thing that I want to ask you."
"Ah, what is it Yocchan?" and Riko finally gained calm as the topic of her self-mumbling was ignored for the moment
"W-Well, I know it might sound crazy but I can't let myself got distracted anymore, so i must ask you this…" Yoshiko looked so determined and it made Riko skipped a beat "Riko-san, d-d-do you know a way to properly confess to someone?"
