Wow.. I can't believe Hao said that in front of his fangirls!
Chapter 7: Anna? A Guidance Counselor? Since When?
At lunch, Yoh and the gang confronted the ever grinning Hao. They performed a, what seemingly is, CSI-like investigation. Of course, the venue was their faithful cafeteria table. "Hao.." Yoh said with a smile on his face. "We know this topic is completely private but, all of us noticed a change in your behavior. Tell us the truth ok?". "Sure thing, dear brother.." Hao said with a wicked smile on his face. "Are you in love?" Horo asked innocently.Hao's eyes widened as the gang moved closer to him. He looked at them, side by side. They were fervently waiting for his answer. Sadly, none came out. "Are you mute?" Ren asked " You heard Horo right? Now speak...". "Guys.. if ever I am.. as you say, in love... why would i tell you?" Hao said, a bead of sweatdrop hanging from his face. "Well... you know the reason why we're asking you this?" Lyserg said "It's because it's so obvious, Hao. The great Asakura Hao. Beaten by the love bug syndrome...".
" If I tell you will you all listen?" Hao said, with a serious look on his face.Everybody nodded. hao told them all about Jeanne. He knew to himself that he loved Jeanne. They were once great rivals but that changed due to their constant togetherness. "JEANNE!" Horo exclaimed. "SHUT UP YOU IDIOT!" ren retoreted. He covered Horo's mouth and punched him across the head.Lyserg looked at them as if they were children and looked back at Hao. "Continue.." he calmly said. " Well.. I think that's just about it..." Hao said. "My problem is.. when will i tell her? Im gonna explode if I don't tell her...". "Yeah.." Yoh said "It's bad keeping things inside...". "Well idiot.." a voice said " Why don't you just tell her?".
Everybody knew that voice. Even Hao, Lyserg and Ren acquired a bead of sweatdrop in their faces. All of them slowly turned their heads. They were right. It was Yoh's insufferable fiancee, Anna. Anna sat beside them, not minding their horrified looks. "If you really feel sincerely about that, then tell her you stupid excuse for a human.." Anna said in an emotionless tone. "But how?" Hao asked "She might reject me.. or even worse.. our friendship might never stay the same again..." Hao looked away seriously. Anna slapped him which made them all gasp. Hao's face was aching. Anna's slap was a strength to be reckoned with. It's as if she intentionally slapped hishead off. " You are such an idiot!" Anna said "You won't know if you don't try...". "When will i tell her, then?" Hao said. Yoh was watching very closely, as if watching a soap opera. Ren was drinking his milk, afraid of moving, even breathing. Horo almost peed on his pants due to the high tension. Lyserg felt his body numb. He confirmed he had a stiff neck. "Tonight you are gonna tell her that" Anna said firmly "If you don't, you aren't allowed to enter the house.." At that, she went away...
