CHAPTER II ~ MOMENTS TO MEMORIES

Start from the beginning
                                    

"I d-don't k-know a-about this..." Amajiki stuttered shyly.




"I've n-never tasted t-this before.."



"It's good, I promise!" I reassured him, the takoyaki still dangling between my chopsticks near his mouth.




"N-No... thank y-you..." He pushed my hands back towards me.





I frowned.





'I don't take no as an answer.'





"Okay, then."




I pretended to put the takoyaki back into my bento box.





"But I bet you can't breathe with your mouth open, sticking your tongue out!"




He looked at me, deeply confused at my sudden challenge.





"No one in HISTORY has ever been able to do it." I continued as I dramatically brought the back of my hand to my forehead.





Amajiki stared at the ground now, in deep thought.





"B-Breathe with your m-mouth opened...?" He tilted his head like a confused puppy.





"With your tongue sticking out!" I pretended to fail at attempting it.




"Legend has it, the person who can achieve that act will be given a great reward instantly!" I look up to the sky, acting like I were telling a great folktale.







"Like..."






Amajiki opened his mouth, and slowly,






"...t-this?" he stuck his tongue out.








Quickly, I shoved the takoyaki in his mouth.





"You have been rewarded, oh brave warrior!" I used my other hand to push his chin up, forcing him to keep the food in his mouth.





"Y-Yume-!" The indigonet's face suddenly turned into a shade that could compete with the takoyaki's pink.





"Yummy?" I laughed, letting go of his chin as he chewed in defeat.




He swallowed before talking again.





"Uh..." he looked down bashfully.






"Y-Yeah, it is y-yummy..."





"Told you so." I messed his already messy indigo hair.







"You'll never know unless you try."







"T-Thanks..." He shyly brought his face up to meet my smiling one.




"U-Um..."




"Say no more, I've packed plenty!" I already knew he would want more.





"Y-You know me so well..." Amajiki scratched the back of his head.






"But fiiiirst."





I lay my head on my palm lazily, my (H/C) bangs bouncing on my forehead.




"Work your majic!"
