Gumi realizes how she doesn't have any classes with Yukari the next day, and her mood is dampened instantly, resulting in her trudging through the day, looking forward to the following day when she'd be able to see her (not so) secret admirer again.

Gumi's anxious as she enters the classroom Wednesday morning, and smiles instantly when she sees that Yukari is already there – wearing a Vanoss Gaming hoodie (doesn't the girl own anything other than Vanoss Gaming merchandise?). She plops down in her usual seat and runs her hand along the edge of the desk. A smile makes its way on her face when it picks up a Rilakkuma-shaped sticky note this time.

Dear Gumi,

Friday. 6pm.

Date?

Sincerely,

Yukari

Gumi doesn't know how to not make her smile so obvious; so she just settles with trying not to giggle like a dork for the rest of the lecture.

Gumi notices how antsy Yukari is as soon as she enters the classroom. She takes her time making when making her way to hher usual seat, and swerves at the very last moment to plop down in the vacant chair next to Yukari. She hears Yukari's soft gasp, but all she can focus on is trying to steady her shaking hands as she slides his duck-shaped sticky note over before pulling out her notebook out of her bag and staring forward.

Out of the corner of her eye, she watches as Yukari grabs the note, noticing how deeply Yukari inhales. Gumi can almost hear Yukari screaming internally as well as she turns and flashes a goofy smile at Gumi.

Gumi smiles back before returning her attention to the front of the classroom where the professor has started lecturing. Her mind is so far elsewhere though. She's not sure if she ever really hears anything the professor is saying.

Dear Yukari,

Yes.

All Gumi can think about is how Friday is too far away.
