Chapter 125:

Ask her out.

The Lifeless Supermoon: A Fateful Encounter


Eh? Hiko? Why are you here?" Kuze looked surprised. Hiko was the last person he expected to be at the rooftop here. Then why is he here, not to mention with Miko? They two have never met or talked to each other before. Such thoughts filled his minds. He closed his book, trying to evaluate the situation.

Miko inclined to the storage room wall, opened a book and started reading herself, being not interested in the conversation they are going to have.

Hiko grinned as he looked at Kuze's expression. "What? Is our dear Kuze jealous?" He whispered to his ear.

Kuze, who is usually calm, blushed. He had been caught red handed. "Anyways, why are you here? And why are you with her?"

"I will tell you why I am here, but I wont tell you why I came here with her."

"Eh?? Why??" Hiko could feel that his heart was exploding right now with anxiety. "Tell me!!"

"I will tell you if you complete the mission I give you." Hiko had an evil smile.

"What mission?" Kuze now had more questions than answers.

"Todays mission: ask her out one a date."

"What happens if I don't do it?" Kuze looked irritated. But Hiko didn't answer his question. He stood up.

"Then I will assume you are not interested in her and I will make my move. I already did it today but next time I will be serious." His eyes looked really evil. He walked away from the rooftop without awaiting his response.

"Hey Miko-san." Hiko murmured as he went close to Miko. "Kuze is a shy boy, you know?"

"That I asserted after spending time with him, yeah I know. He is curious too."

"He was trying to know how you buy random books from the bookstore without suggestions."

"Oh a blind reading? Where you go to a bookstore and pick a random book and read it? Yeah sometimes I do that."

"Yeah he is wondering how it is done and how to pick good books that way. I will be grateful as a friend if you could help him. He is kinda afraid because he thinks it sounds like a date."

"Well, I won't argue that it looks like a date." Miko looked at the sky. "But that kind of thing is kind of interesting, isn't it?" She smiled.

Hiko understood why Kuze fell for her that way. She was direct, bold and never hides her feelings. Hiko's work there was done so he went out of the rooftop and went to his classroom, grinning.

"Forgive me, Kuze. But if I didn't do that, you wouldn't have made your move." He questioned himself. "I know you wouldn't. You get a lot of confessions but are new to romance. You know how to reject confessions but don't know how to confess, do you?"
