“What did you say?” Manjoume stared at Junko and Momoe. Had he really heard what he just thought he had? “What was that about Tenjoin-kun?”
Momoe and Junko exchanged curious looks, then Momoe looked back at him. “She didn’t tell Juudai that she likes him.”
She opened her mouth to keep talking, but Manjoume turned on his heel and was gone a moment later, heading to where he knew Asuka would be at that time of day. He could’ve heard it from them. He wanted to hear it from her. Excitement thrummed along his veins with every step he took. Could it be…could it be…
“Tenjoin-kun!” He called out as soon as he saw her and she turned to look at him. She’d been going over her deck, he saw. He grabbed mentally for what to say and hoped she wouldn’t be offended. “I heard about what you didn’t do with Juudai.”
Asuka tilted her head and blinked at him. “What are you talking about?”
Worse than offended. She was confused. “I heard from Momoe and Junko that you didn’t tell him how you feel.” He had to just plunge ahead now and hope that this conversation didn’t end with her yelling at him or worse, smacking him around.
Instead, she smiled. “He doesn’t need to know.” She glanced at her deck then toward him for a moment, curiosity written in her features. “Would you care for a duel, Manjoume-kun? I’ve added some new cards and I want to test them out.”
All she had ever had to do was ask. “It would be my pleasure, Tenjoin-kun.” He could tell there was so much more she hadn’t yet said about her reasons, but he would let those words come in their own time.
For now, it was time to duel.
The End
