"Y-Yes... It's just-"
"I only needed to hear your answer. No need to say anything else." She says, smiling.
She lets me go, holding my hand instead. Her eyes only on me.
'She's scary...' I say to myself. Most degenerates I know would love to have her but... if you actually have a yandere. It's absolutely terrifying, how? One moment you step out of turn, they might just kill you and keep your head as a sign of 'love'. I have watched a lot of dark stories, sometimes that happens.
"Let's meet again... tomorrow. I still have a hangout to do with my friends." I say hesitantly.
"...Okay. Just don't leave me." She caresses my face.
Instead of being happy or flustered, I'm just terrified. She looks at my eyes with love, I look at hers with fear. She lets go of my hand.
"See you tomorrow, dear~." She waves before leaving the aquarium.
"S-See you." I head back to Carla and the others.
"Come with me." Yuki says. She walks away from the group, expecting me to follow her.
"Alright..." I say.
I follow her to an area where Carla and Yui cannot hear us converse.
"You're disgusting." Yuki says.
"Jeez, you're mean... but I had to do it." I reply.
"You just made up an excuse to flirt with that girl didn't you."
"No, I promise. She was stalking Yui."
"I don't believe you" Yuki says.
I breathe a deep sigh, I expected this response. Seems like I'm the one who's getting misunderstood right now. I just have to fix it. It'll be hard since Yuki is very stubborn.
"Im telling you the truth, she was stalking Yui, I just transferred her obsession to me."
"Why would you do that though? It'd be a lot easier if you made her love someone else, you must have at least one other friend."
"..." I stay silent.
"Wait, you dont have any other-"
"Yes... you three are the only ones I have." I say, embarrassed by the fact I had to admit I have basically no friends.
"Still... why would you do that, you clearly like Carla so why?"
"I do... but she clearly likes Yui. She always looks so happy around him." I say looking down.
"Really? From what I see, she enjoys being around you more. From my perspective, I think she likes you." She responds.
"Then you're wrong, I'm not good enough, she would never like me..."
"Are you dense? If she didn't like you, why would she spend more time with you than us this past week."
"I dont know? Maybe because we just became friends and she wanted to know more about me?"
"If that's the case, there'd be no reason for her inviting you here. I can't with you. You can't read any emotions. Go talk to Carla, she's probably still shocked by the scene she had just witnessed." She says.
I found it ironic, the 'kuudere' is talking to me about 'love'.
"Okay..." I say. I start walking towards Carla, approaching her slowly. Hesitant due to what Yuki had said, 'does she really like me?',
"Carla... want to talk?" I ask her.
"Sure! Let's talk!" She says brightly, although there is a slight crack in her voice.
"Privately though..." I look at Yui.
"Oh! Okay, Yui could you leave us for a second?" Carla asks Yui.
Yui nods and backs off, giving us some space.
"So... what do you want to talk about?" Carla asks me.
"I'll keep it straightforward. What do you think about me?" I ask her.
Carla just looks at me, hesitating to answer.
"I think you're a wonderful person!" She answers.
"So... do you like me?" I ask her.
"..." Carla takes a while to respond, her eyes looking around frantically, before finally answering,
