But suddenly someone opened the door. Both of them were shocked and embarrassed when they saw Zuta with a blushing face looking at them.
Her face turned even redder. "I'm really sorry, I forgot my pouch." And then she hurried away, closing the door heavily.
The atmosphere became more awkward.
Alice hesitated to move away from him, but Sana didn't let go. He pulled her down and hugged her tightly instead.
Alice was shocked by his action, and so was he.
Right now, he could feel her whole body against him. His face turned red. They could both hear each other's heartbeat.
Alice hid her face on his chest, remembering what she had done when she lost control earlier.
Sana stroked her hair.
Alice loved his touch; it made her feel better.
Sana broke the silence. "You're the best actress, Alice."
Her heart hurt a little, but she didn't want to show her dark side anymore. She was scared she might lose him, or that he might get afraid of her obsession.
Alice curiously asked, "Why are you hugging me? Is this just a pretend lovers thing?"
Sana didn't look at her face, but he knew she was blushing.
Sana said, "I can feel it. You lost control earlier, so I think this is the best way to calm your mind."
Alice smiled and hugged him even tighter. "You're so warm… you make me feel safe. You always understand me very well."
[If I show my love too much, maybe that will be a bad case. It would be more interesting if I make him say it himself… that he loves me so badly he can't live without me. I need to make sure the success rate is 100%.]
She quietly hid her laugh on his chest.
Sana's voice trembled. "Do you have feelings for me?"
His heart beat faster, waiting for her answer.
Alice hesitated, then asked, "But I want to ask something before I answer you."
Sana stroked her hair while she hugged him tighter. "What is your question, my shy girl?"
Alice looked at him, her voice trembling and a little scared. "Just… if it's okay… if someone loves you like a yandere, do you hate it? Are you scared of it?"
[You need to confess your feelings to me. Probability: 100%]
Her lips curved slightly.
Sana smiled. "I don't really like yanderes."
Alice's face darkened, her hope shattered—his words felt like a knife stabbing her heart.
Then Sana looked at her with calm eyes. "But if the person I love becomes a yandere, or anything else… I would still love her. Because that is part of who she is."
Alice was taken aback. Suddenly her heart felt warm.
She became curious. "Even if it's dangerous for your life?"
Sana shook his head. "No. Living without your love is worse than dying."
[I've fallen so deeply for him now… everything he says is true. He's not afraid of me. His heart only beats for me. So I will take his heart from now on… and claim it as mine.]
Alice couldn't hold back anymore and kissed him.
