[There could be a lot wrong here actually...]

Well... I'm not sure what I can do. I've never felt like this before and... Well, no one ever encouraged or talked to me about this if it did happen back home...

It's no one's fault really! I was thinking of saying something to you, but I in the end I was just trying to sort out how I really felt by myself.

[psycholawgy]

It's a strange feeling, isn't it?

But you know you can talk to me about anything, Ai.

[emotive]

Do... Do you know Hiro?

[A beat.]

Hiro Kageyama?

[psycholawgy]

[ she suddenly looks a bit concerned. ]

Isn't he a pervert?

[emotive]

T-That's...!

[She wants to defend him, but...!! LOOK SHE LIKES HIM OKAY]

I-I can't say anything against that, but I've talked to him! A lot! We even played video games and had snacks together! We've been through a lot!!

[psycholawgy]

[ dsasdkh AI... ]

Well, if he makes you happy, then I think your heart's made the right choice!

[emotive]

[COVERING HER FACE...]

Is it though...? Is it really okay? I don't know there's just so many things I don't know about even though I want to act on my feelings, but if I act on them, it feels so selfish and he probably doesn't feel the same way and...!

[psycholawgy]

That's what I thought with Merlin, too! But I just wanted to be friends with him.

But then we started holding hands, and even then, I didn't want to read into things, you know? Does he ever hold your hand?

[Peeks through her fingers...]

. . .

[emotive]

[COVERS FACE AGAIN.]

We've... We've held hands a lot...!

[psycholawgy]

[ she's at the edge of her seat now. ]

And? And?

[emotive]

Like I said though, I don't think he feels the same way...

But Hiro's a very warmhearted person. [She sets her hands down in her lap.] He's a very good person.

[psycholawgy]

[ hm... she strokes her chin. ]

Should I ask him?

[emotive]

N-No! Absolutely not!

[Wow, Ai's feeling pretty strongly about this]

I... I'm actually going to figure out a way to convey my feelings! Somehow! I need to do this on my own!

[psycholawgy]

Oh! Well then, that's even better!

I don't have any advice to give, because I never wanted to tell Merlin anything, but I wish you all the best.

[emotive]

[GONNA NIBBLE ON HER TOAST LIKE A CHILD, sob]

Thank you... I hope I'm not way in over my head...

[Ai takes a poke at her CEREvice to check the time and date and realizes...]

... Oh. It's June already...

[psycholawgy]

[ she cants her head slowly, a hand making way for her glass. ]

What happens in June?

1/3

[emotive]

My birthday's near the end of the month...

Ah, you know what's interesting? Hiro and I share the same month for our birth...

[emotive]

... Days...

[emotive]

[Gonna check the calendar again and...]







HIS BIRTHDAY'S NEXT WEEK!!!

[psycholawgy]

Don't panic! [ even though athena herself is panicking. ] There's still time for a party or something!

[emotive]

[FLAILING]

W-Wait a party?! Are we allowed to do that?!

[uh, ai no one said it's a bad thing...]

[psycholawgy]

Why not?

Or if it's not a party, then we can host a small dinner for him and his friends.

[emotive]

D-Do you know who he knows? I'll definitely help out with this!

[Ai only knows Otome for sure.]

[psycholawgy]

Not a clue!
