Billy didn't want to lose someone he loved just because of this. It wasn't him who had feelings for Virly, but Virly himself who had feelings for him.

"Did you really forget or were you just pretending to forget?" Billy asked in a questioning tone.

"I really did forget, Riss. There's a lot you talk about, so I'm asking now. Which one?" Billy repeated the same question.

"About Virly, How? Have you investigated or perhaps asked the person directly how she feels about you?" Clarissa asked. There she waited anxiously for an answer from Billy.

"Oh that one, Yes, I remember that," said Billy with a small laugh to cover his nervousness.

"Then, how? Have you asked it or not? Remember, I don't want to be close to you again before we know for sure how Virly feels for you," Clarissa said.
