"Isn't that the chance you're waiting for? He finally wants to talk to you."
After replying like this to Hina's message, I observed her reaction from where I was.
As expected, the girl bit her lips and turned her head to me. Perhaps, she's trying to see if I was serious with my answer.
"What if he tells me that he accepts my feelings? What will you do?"
"Hina, like I said before. The choice is all yours. If this is before, I will say I am going to steal you back if that's what he will say… However, on the off chance that he truly changed after a day and you choose to be with him, I won't stop you. Isn't this what we talked about this Tuesday?"
Right. This was how it went back then. If she would really choose him after everything that happened between us, I wouldn't blame her and I would give up.
But that didn't mean I would stop caring for her.
"Don't worry, I will be there. So that if something unexpected happens, I will be able to reach you in time."
