Chapter 11
My heart jumped. She agreed with me. I gushed.
"OH Tenten-kun! I'm so excited! Please explain, yeah!"
She looked at me those beautiful brown eyes reading my face, the small smile that sat at the corners of her mouth lifted into a full out grin.
"Well,"
She said
"When I summon my weapons they are truly at their peak for a few fleeting seconds before they come crashing down."
She was so exuberant to be given the opportunity to talk about the things that brought her joy in life. Her luminescent expression made me feel warmer and I found myself never wanting to see that look fall from her face.
"So, um, Tenten-kun what else do you like, un?"
Her stunning smile never faltered but her eyes shot up to the ceiling in a thoughtful manner. She pulled her gaze back to me and said.
"I really like dandelions."
She paused examining the inquisitive expression I had set on my countenance. She continued.
"Dandelions are truly underappreciated. They grow in such an ugly place yet manage to maintain some form of beauty."
My eyes widened with surprise. She spoke like a true artist. She was listening to me. Answering back. AGREEING for Kami's sake. I took a deep breath as I felt the empty space deep in my chest fill. I think she'd be what other people call a friend.
