"Good game, Lillian."

"I didn't do a good job on it, though."

Ash sat down next to Lillian and had his hand on her head. He ruffled her neat bun until it became messy.

"Don't worry. I know you try your best," He smiled.

"Hey! You're messing up my hair," Lillian said as she tried to readjust her bun. "Great, I have to do it again. Thanks." She let her long brown hair down her shoulder and gently ran her fingers through it.

"I sometimes forget how long your hair is," Cam said. He grabbed a portion of Lillian's hair and waited for it to slowly slide down his hand.

"Is that so? Do you want me to put my hair down more often so I can remind you?" Lillian's lip curved up into a teasing smile.

Yes. That was Cam's answer. He loved to stand by his window where the view took place in his garden and secretly watching Lillian playing with her long hair. He loved the way her hair rolled down her back as she took the pen out. He loved the way her hair swayed aside when the wind blew. Cam forced himself to snap out the thought of 'love'. To his belief, everything he once loved disappeared in a short time. He shrugged his shoulder and replied, "No."

"Oh… I see."

Ina stood in the center of the court with her hands on her waist.

"Break's over! This final game will determine the winner. It is dodge-ball. You will have five minutes to play this game. When time's up, the team with most members left standing will win. Got it?"

"Yes!" The competitors replied.

"Great! Let's head to the gym!"

Ash gave Lillian a soft punch on her shoulder and smiled.

"Dodge-ball is your talent, right?"

"Yes!"

They headed to the gym where rubber balls were placed in the center. Team BlueBell was facing toward Team Konoha as they waited for the bell to ring.

"We're going against each other again, Lillian! I still won't go easy on you," Kana said.

"You make the right choice," Lillian replied with a smirk.

When the bell finally rang, each member rushed to the center to get the ball and began throwing it. Lillian dodged most of the powerful throw. Times seemed to go by fast but no one had been eliminated yet.

"Three more minutes!" Rutger announced.

Ash handed Lillian a ball and smiled at her. He mouthed, "Do it!" She inhaled and exhaled as she positioned herself. The ball smacked one of the Konoha's member with a loud thump.

"Ouch," Cam said.

"Good job, Lillian!" Ash cheered.

"Thanks!"

They turned back to face their enemies again. As times goes on, Georgia, Nancy, David, and one other member from Konoha were taking out.

"Thirty seconds!"

Lillian looked at Kana who was smiling at her. She knew he was muscular and athletic. Yet, he was her goal of target. She once positioned herself again and created an unexpected throw to Kana. Thump. It hit. He stared at her in disbelief and put his hand on his shoulder where the ball touched and mouthed, "Ow." Then a kind smile appeared on his face.

Nori was shocked as much as everyone else did. Cam unexpectedly threw another ball at her while she was distracted.

"Time's up! BlueBell end up with three members as Konoha end up with two members. BlueBell win!" The coach announced.

The crowd from BlueBell cheered. Rutger was laughing at Ina and admired his school's victory.

"I told you so! We've won!"

"Just watch when we win the next festival!"

"We did it!" Lillian jumped up and smiled. She ran up to Ash and Cam and hugged them in joy.

"Good job! We won because of you," Ash said as he ruffled Lillian's hair.

"You did a great job, Lillian." Cam muttered.

"Thank you!"

At the end of the game, Nori went up to Lillian and patted her back.

"Great job! I can't believe you hit Kana. That's awesome!"

"Thanks, Nori. I was shocked, too."

Nori smiled and pulled Lillian close to her. She pointed at a boy with short brown hair who was talking in the crowd.

"You see that guy over there, right?" Nori whispered.

"What's about him?"

"His name is Hiro. He's my boyfriend."

Lillian grinned and replied, "Is that so? Why didn't he join the game with you?"

"He's not into sport that much but he's super good at English and math. Hiro is the number one student in Konoha."

"That's great. He looks very kind and sweet."

"He is!"

Hiro smiled at Nori and gestured her to come over.

"I gotta go. See you at work, Lillian!"

"Bye!"


Lillian sat on the ground, admiring the beautiful flowers in the garden of the mansion.

"I smell bacon."

Cam looked around the area and leaned next to Lillian. He pretended to make a sniffing sound.

"Yup, definitely bacon," Cam confirmed.

"What's that suppose to mean?!" Lillian pouted up her cheeks that made Cam smiled.

"Well, bacon is made from pork. You're sitting in the heating sun. What do you think it means?"

"I'm leaving! I don't want to talk to you!"

Lillian stood up and left but Cam grabbed her wrist and pulled her to the spot next to him.

"I like bacon," Cam muttered.

"That's nice but don't eat me."

Cam chuckled and set his eyes on Lillian's hair that followed the movement of a fresh breeze. He held a section of her brown hair and let it slid off smoothly on his skin.

"Liar," Lillian said.

"What do you mean?"

"Your answer to my question before the last game was a lie."

Cam hesitated at her words. He remembered that a 'no' slipped out of his mouth when Lillian asked about letting down her long hair. It was a lie but was that the reason why she didn't make her hair into a bun?

"Were you expecting a 'yes'?" Cam asked.

"No, but your eyes told me so." Lillian said as she gazed at the colorful flower bed. "Then again, maybe I am wrong."

"What would you've done if I told you 'yes'? Would you let your hair down every day?"

"Would you notice me more?"

Cam once again hesitated at her question. Was there a tease in her voice? He couldn't tell. Was this just a trick question she gave him to begin her judgments? He couldn't tell.

"I already did," Cam said.

Lillian giggled and replied, "Is that so?" She stared at the blue Periwinkles that danced to the motion of a soft wind.

"Periwinkle," Cam said.

"Do you what it means?"

"Periwinkle means a pleasure of memories or sweet memories."

Lillian smiled at Cam and whispered, "This moment is our Periwinkle."
