On the Move
Assassin GirlKey’s whole world stopped in that moment. His eyes were as wide as saucers and his jaw hung in disbelief.
“I like you too, oppa …”
Wait. What? … WHAT?!?!? Did she just …
Did Shiko just accept him??
Shiko stood awkwardly in front of Key, shifting uncomfortably in her spot.
“This is it, Shiko Yuki. You’ve done it now. There’s no turning back … There’s no other way around. You have to keep going … and throw everything away now …” she kept chanting in her brain as if to hypnotize herself.
“N-No. Wait …” Key spoke, making Shiko snap out of it and look toward him. “D-Did you just …? … Did I-I hear that right? … W-What …?” he stuttered lamely; unable to collect his thoughts, much more, his feelings.

What was this?

“This isn’t a dream, right?” Key spoke gently “I can’t possibly be dreaming right now … right?” he tightened his hold. Shiko gulped and dared not to move. She was still very flustered by everything.

“Hmmm?”
“Do you really think Miss Yuki sees us as her friends? … I mean, yeah, she accepted us and all that but … she still feels a bit distant to me …”
