4. I Like You, I Love You
Rin swallows hard. This is it- she's going to do it! She's going to tell the boy on the other side of the screen she loves him! She can do it!
She hides in the corner of his screen, watching him scroll through something called 'Vocabook'. He's got a small, bored expression on his face, sighing every once in awhile and occasionally exhaling hard at some pictures. Ah… he's so cute when he smiles.
She takes a deep breath. "I- I- I-" she tries practicing, but the words get stuck in her throat. At this rate, she'll never get it out!
Steeling her courage, Rin makes her decision- now or never! Jumping out from behind his opened tab, she watches his eyes go wide at her appearance.
"I- I- I- um, I l-l-like y-y-y-y-y-" C'mon, Rin, get it out there! Making eye contact with the boy in front of her, the words finally, finally, surface.
"I- I like you, Len! Please accept my confession!" Rin stares at him pleadingly. After being with her so long, he has to accept!
Len looks fairly taken aback at the sight in front of him. Rin's cheeks are a bright pink, and she yelps out loud when his cursor scrolls over and picks her up, his face nearing the monitor to gaze into her eyes. Her heart soars high as he utters a response-
"What is this thing? A weird virus?"
-and then crashes to the ground.
