The next day at school, Jun was still feeling the afterglow of his date with Yuki. He couldn't stop thinking about her, about her smile, about the way she had looked at him.23Please respect copyright.PENANA1mqxo5Ptg9

He was walking through the hallway when he saw Hana. She was standing by her locker, talking to a group of friends.23Please respect copyright.PENANA1fPbXFd1d3
23Please respect copyright.PENANAU5cVcrCbJz
"Hey, Hana," Jun said, approaching her.23Please respect copyright.PENANAK01r9NwPNG

Hana smiled. "Hey, Jun. How was your date with Yuki?"23Please respect copyright.PENANAflZ7a9zRtI

Jun blushed. "It was... it was great," he mumbled.23Please respect copyright.PENANAhfWRqNtDDx

Hana grinned. "I knew you two would hit it off."23Please respect copyright.PENANAPnF56Ty7zG
23Please respect copyright.PENANAgg6GbTCYy5
Jun looked at her, his eyes filled with curiosity. "How did you know?" he asked.
Hana grinned mischievously. "Oh, I have my ways," she said, winking. "But seriously, you two are perfect for each other. You just need to let your feelings show a little more."23Please respect copyright.PENANAyTLZsogUQc
23Please respect copyright.PENANAyd6DHzAKor
Jun blushed even harder. He still couldn't believe how easily Yuki had made him feel comfortable. He was starting to realize that maybe he wasn't as hopeless as he thought.23Please respect copyright.PENANAXoLoPASzMW

"I... I don't know," he mumbled. "I'm still scared of messing things up."23Please respect copyright.PENANA9vgcIJYMoy
23Please respect copyright.PENANA99LJknGI7H
Hana patted his shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry," she said. "Just be yourself. Yuki likes you for who you are."23Please respect copyright.PENANAIck7mlDEFz
23Please respect copyright.PENANAyRjWWHO2Tv
Just then, Yuki appeared at the end of the hallway, her eyes searching for Jun. When she saw him, a smile spread across her face.23Please respect copyright.PENANAICvzCHLv9G
23Please respect copyright.PENANAaf5rq6tnHN
"Jun," she called out, her voice bright. "I need to talk to you about something."23Please respect copyright.PENANAz6d3mCo5Q0
23Please respect copyright.PENANAEIL41XZm7v
Jun's heart skipped a beat. He felt a mixture of excitement and nervousness. What could she want to talk about?23Please respect copyright.PENANAVokRIEVDMi
23Please respect copyright.PENANAhrZTSaG2zM
"Okay," he said, his voice barely a whisper.23Please respect copyright.PENANARRgUlGaZkj
23Please respect copyright.PENANAVr1Y0an4Xs
Yuki joined them, her smile growing wider as she looked at Jun. "I had a really great time on our date," she said, her voice soft. "I was thinking maybe we could do something else together this weekend?"23Please respect copyright.PENANArx0Gpqd9e8
23Please respect copyright.PENANAPpab0Ajicx
Jun's eyes widened. He couldn't believe she was asking him out again.23Please respect copyright.PENANAwIUfgoiSKE
23Please respect copyright.PENANAoTLDCkF1Of
"I... I would love to," he stammered, his cheeks flushing red.23Please respect copyright.PENANAo7EWFDy9Nf
23Please respect copyright.PENANAP1yVKJbSlj
Yuki's smile widened even further. "Great!" she said. "I'll pick you up at seven on Saturday."23Please respect copyright.PENANAPAcUaAlWk0
23Please respect copyright.PENANAcPlVRXnlLN
Jun nodded, his heart pounding in his chest. He was starting to realize that maybe, just maybe, he was falling for Yuki.
