You know that feeling of being flustered in front of your crush?
"Congratulations,"
I whipped my head at that voice, so fast that the forest felt like a blur. But even if I didn't, I could no longer see anything else but the tall figure walking steadily toward me.
Ah...I couldn't even make any noise, feeling my limbs go limp. Jade flew away the moment I let go of it, probably feeling like I wouldn't give it any more attention right now. My eyes were fixed on Natha, and my mind half thought that he was just a forest illusion.
"Hmm," his voice sounded as sweet as it was in my dream. "It seems like I had gone too unreliable that you come to doubt my promise,"
"...ah," was the only dumb reaction I could muster. I wanted to see him so much every day, but when he actually appeared in front of me, my mind went blank. Perhaps because our last meeting was so...abrupt and confusing.
