"she's probably gone home already", thought Enn. looking at the time, it was already half past two. school had long closed.
Where the hell are they?? I've been waiting for so long!!
"well, it's whatever", continued Enn, "she's better off going with anyone else other than me".
Oh, is that-?
"ENN!!!!"
"wuh — kel?? what are you doing here??"
"I've been waiting for you! Come on, let's go!"
Kel hurriedly pulls Enn by their arm.

"... um... why were you waiting for me? i'd assumed you had friends to walk home with"
"I did! But I wanted to walk home with you!"
"..? why me??"
"Mmm... No reason."
(Lie.)
...
"What were you doing so late at school anyways?"
"oh, i was helping mr. loary organize his files"
"Ooh. You're so helpful."
...
"Say... Are you doing anything today?"
"not that i know of, no"
"Um... So... Like... I... Do you want to... Um..."
"..."
My heart is going to burst out of my chest. This is the end of me. I am going to die right now. I would be okay dying right now if they're the last thing I see. They are looking at me with their droopy eyes. They have eyebags. Probably from lack of sleep. They seem like they stay awake all night playing games. Or reading. Gosh, I want to hold them so badly. And not let go. Ever. For ev
"kel?? ke—el?? are you there??? earth to kel??"
"Wha."
"you were saying something and then just. dozed off. are you alright?"
"Oh I'm fine it was probably nothing haha I mean I'm sure if what I was going to say was important I would remember it but I don't so it wasn't something important at all don't worry about it. Haha."
