Episode 131
It wasn't that Naru didn't appreciate Usagi, she just didn't think she could handle her and her questions any more today. She politely excused herself, feigning tiredness after the day's events (well it wasn't exactly feigning) and made her way home, alone.
How was she supposed to explain something she couldn't explain to herself?
Naru was a smart girl and had a good head on her shoulders. Her mother and teachers practically swore by it.
Why? It was all Usagi wanted to know. After all the drama, so much of it so easily avoidable, she still didn't know.
A simple "no" like her brain was shouting would've ended it.
She found herself saying "maybe", saying "I have a boyfriend, but", saying "I'll have to think about it".
And why?
(he didn't look like him not really. it was the hair maybe, or that smirk. but not really him)
She knew what that guy wanted was bad, knew that guy was bad. She knew it.
(he was bad too)
She didn't say "no".
(maybe all he needs is a chance)
She nearly lost everything.
(there will never be another like him)
That night she cried, and still never understood why.
