The Fateful True or Dare Game:
As soon as he was inside, Takanosuke mentally kicked himself for getting away so quickly. What the heck is wrong with you?! every inch of him screamed. He pushed himself against the wall, eyes slammed close. he stayed like that until Sakyo came home.
They had rented a house instead of always staying in a hotel.
"What's wrong with you?" asked Sakyo, looking at his friend with concern.
Takanosuke sighed. "I made a mistake. And I'm not sure if I can fix it," he answered the tall boy.
"Well, what'd you do?" was all Sakyo said.
Takanosuke replied, "I think I may have left Ren with the impression that I don't like her. I just don't know how to prove to her that she's wrong. It just kills me that she thinks that I hate her!"
Sakyo gave the most unexpected response. He laughed. It was loud, uproarious. "I think you may have a crush on your rival, Takanosuke. It's very common in someone to develope feelings after spending a lot of time with them. You're just doing what's in human nature."
Takanosuke did his best to take comfort from his friend's words.
"Thanks, Sakyo. I think I know what to do."
