03. Mikan is upset about the never-ending rain, but Koko manages to cheer her up after having succeeded to get into her head.

Third Tune: Lovers In Japan
"When is this rain going to stop?" Mikan complained. It had been pouring outside for over a week and Mikan was tired of staying indoors. "I don't even know what to do here."
"You don't know what to do?" Koko raised an eyebrow, "Or are you too shy to tell me what you really wanna do?" He winked.
Mikan blushed, "You have no idea how glad I am that you can't read my mind."
"I was talking about getting Howalons delivered here, but if that's what you were thinking, I honestly don't mind," Koko chuckled. Seconds later, he found a pillow flying, instantly hitting him straight on the face.
He was about to react, but before he could even take any air in, he noticed her staring out the window intently. Her eyes filled with hope for the sun to finally reveal itself again. Silence fell upon them.
"He stared dreamily at she who did so at the trees outside," Koko muttered to himself and smiled. He sat beside her and looked out the window like she did.
"One day, we'll both sit outside a café, talking about things that make us happy," Koko said, leaning back after receiving a confused look from the brunette. "We'll be out of the academy and we'll be traveling around the country. We'll go see the Tokyo Tower, and we'll visit Kyoto," he continued as she raised her eyebrows. "Then we'll be in Osaka. Watching the sunrise and the sunset."
"How…?" Mikan wondered, still so confused that she could hardly ask him a proper question of how he knew what she'd been thinking.
"Caught you off guard, didn't I?" He grinned at her. "When your mind drifts away, it gives me the chance to read your mind." He walked back to the couch. "It happens more than you think." He turned around to smile at her, and caught her blushing.
And another pillow came flying at him yet again.
End.
