"I'm so happy for Hideyoshi, but I'm jealous of them." Aki admitted to Yuuji.
"Why?" He asked sun bathing.
"Because, I really do like Minami, I want to be with her. Do you think I blew it?"
"Nope, she's loved you for the longest time; I doubt one joke will ruin that. She loves you more than you love food."
"That's strong love." Voyeur commented.
"Hideyoshi really likes your sister huh?" Yuuji asked.
"Yeah," I responded watching her as she wrapped her hand around his. They walked across the shoreline while she rested her head on his shoulder.
"He'll be good to her, you know that right?" Himeji startled us.
"I hope so. I want the best for my sister."
"I want the best for her too. I also want the best for you, that's why I'm telling you to go after Minami before someone else takes her."
The way Himeji acted about this was amazing. I knew she liked me… a lot. I never expected her to be encouraging me to go after another girl.
"Thank you Himeji." I smiled.
"You're welcome."
"Why are you taking this so well?" I had to ask.
"If you truly love something, set it free. If it's truly yours, it'll come back." And with that she got up and joined Shouko, Yuko, and Minami in the water. Moments later we all joined in.
Minami slapped my face with water then dove under, appearing in front of me moments later. I looked at her deeply in the eyes.
"Beautiful." I whispered. She blushed and looked down. I placed my index finger under her chin and lifted her face. Slowly I moved closer, until I felt her breath on my lips. I paused, unsure if I should go on. She closed the space. Connecting our lips, hers were smooth.
NARRATORS POV
The gang cooed as Minami and Aki kissed. Akemi smiled and looked at Hideyoshi as their lips slowly touched.
