❝ Impress me, empress.❞
The words had been said.
A demand?
Or simply, a request?
One treasured love
and thought of it as a strength.
The other loathed love
and thought of it as a weakness.
Then later, he knew.
But he just smiled
as a part of him die...

"...Get ready at 9 tomorrow?" I whispered in confusion as I recalled the scene that happened at the school hallway not too long ago where he left me puzzled by his odd 'favor'. ㅤ
I nervously hugged my bolster while rolling on my bed from side to side. ㅤ
My phone's flat-screen remained pitch black, not showing any sign of new notifications I had been waiting to pop up. I kept thinking these the moment I went home from school, is he serious? No tricks? No traps? No lies? No fantasies? ㅤ
Life was probably joking with me. What was that again, Akashi Seijuurouㅡout of all peopleㅡwanted me to get ready at 9 tomorrow? ㅤ
What a joke! I wanted to laugh, I just needed to!!! ㅤ
But I couldn't. And this couldn't be true. ㅤ
Why does he ask me such a favor to do on the weekend? I thought he would have a strict weekly practice for the Interhigh? But on top of them all, would it be at 9 AM or 9 PM?! ㅤ
My gaze shifted towards the black screen on my phone, having this huge urge to directly ask him for the exact time. I kept staring while biting my lower lip. ㅤ
Should I ask him? But Akashi doesn't even notify me anything... ㅤ
Should I not? But if he truly comes, I'll be so screwed up and of course, I'll need time to prepare myself...
ㅤ And that's only if he comes...
ㅤ But WHAT IF HE DOESN'T COME AT ALL AND I MISHEARD EVERYTHING? ㅤ
My own assumptions hushed me in silence. I hurriedly pulled my blanket over my head and made it cover my whole body so that I could hide and curl up into a ball to get rid of my inner thoughts. But it didn't work, it got worse instead. ㅤ
After arguing here and there with my own mind, a final decision was made. I decided not to ask him and assume all of this wasn't real since I got zero notification along with no specific time and place. Geez, that genius is really something!
