Chapter 35 The Absolute NightSky

Start from the beginning
                                    

Zora: Asuna, it's called a confession for a reason. It's risky, and it takes courage. Unless, you're waiting for him to make the first move, then be my guest. But I'll tell you one thing, he likes you as well.

Asuna looked at Zora surprised and Zora just leaned back on the tree and look towards the sky.

Zora: You don't want to know how much he talks about you when I made dinner. Honestly, sometimes I wonder if I only exist to him for a conversation about you. But I guess, that's the kind of strength you have, that got him to notice you.

Asuna: Strength?

Zora: Yeah, you have the strength that inspire others, including me. It's the hope that you give other players when we get to the next floor. A lot of players look up to you. You got strength, Asuna.

Asuna looked at Zora surprised and shocked by his words and smiled at him.

Zora: Listen, this strength you had, will always be inside of you. Even if when you started to stumble on the road, thinking probably that you couldn't walk anymore, I'll be there behind you and push you forwards.

Zora gave Asuna a heart warming smile and she couldn't help but let down a drop of tear and smile at him.

Asuna: Thank you, Zora! Even though you are in pain right now, after losing your sister, you continue to cheer me up!

Zora: So hit me up if you need a talk about your problem. I'll be there.

(Present)

Asuna then opened her eyes and saw that she was still in her bed.

Asuna: It was just a dream...

Asuna couldn't help but smile and she search through her call history and dialed Sora's number and after a few minutes, Sora picked up.

Sora(on phone): *Yawn* Hello!

Asuna: Sora!

Sora(on phone): Asuna? Isn't this a bit late to be calling me?

Asuna: Sorry. I should have guessed you'd be asleep.

Sora(on phone): It's fine. Do you need something?

Asuna: I just need someone to talk to about my problems.

Sora(on phone): Sure... go on ahead...

(Timeskip)

It's the next day, and Zora had logged into ALO and on his way towards the 24th floor and Asuna called out to him.

Asuna: Zora!

Zora: Hey Asuna, are you feeling better?

Asuna: Yeah...thank you, for listening to me.

Zora: No problem. I used to butted head with my dad a few times. I may not know exactly where your coming from, but at least I could help you out.

Asuna: Heh, thanks.

The two of them smile at one another and as they continue to made their way towards the 24th floor and they saw Kirito sleeping on the grass and they approached him.

Zora: Yo!

Kirito: Hey!

Asuna: It's so unusual for you to be here first.

Kirito: It happens sometimes.

Both Zora and Asuna then sat next to Kirito, and Asuna laid her head on his shoulder.
