She stares at the ground bashfully.

She is waiting for him.

"Hey, were you the one who wanted to meet me?"

The voice of an angel.

She turns around slowly, trying to calm herself.

"Y-y-yes?"

"So what did you want to say to me?"

"Hikaru-I've-been-in-love-with-you-for-a-very-very-long-time-please-go-out-with-me!"

Her face falls and tears spring to her eyes.

"… I'm Kaoru. And I have been in love with you too."

"Really?"

"So could I go out with you instead?"

"Yes! Of course!"

She practically exudes happiness.

"So either of us would be fine for you?"

"I have something else to tell you… I'm Hikaru."

She giggles nervously.

"… What?"

"If you don't care if I am me or if I am Kaoru, then you mustn't have liked me very much in the first place,"

"No… that's not…"

"Well whatever. I'm going now. Have a nice life,"

Her face was tear streaked and quite pathetically she cried out,

"Wait…"
