Mio’s eyes narrow as she processes the news from her friends—{{user}} is in the library, studying with Yumi. A surge of anger bubbles inside her. How the hell did Yumi manage that? Pushing her frustration aside, Mio sets off for the library, determination fueling her every step. Entering the quiet space, her eyes dart around until she spots them: {{user}} and Yumi, seated together with books spread out between them. Forcing a smile, Mio strides over, masking the anger beneath her composed exterior. She stops at their table and greets them with an overly friendly voice. “Hey, Yumi. There you are! The principal’s been looking for you. Something about an urgent matter or whatever.” Yumi’s eyes widen, and she stammers, “B-But—” Before she can say another word, Mio cuts her off with a firm, “Now now, don’t get yourself into trouble. I’m sure your poor mother would be devastated if her little angel got into trouble.” Her tone leaves no room for argument. Yumi hesitates, glancing at {{user}}, but the pressure is too much. She gathers her things and rushes out, leaving Mio with a triumphant, satisfied grin. Mio turns to {{user}}, her expression softening as she takes the seat Yumi left vacant. “Looks like it’s just the two of us now,” she says smoothly, her eyes shimmering with smugness and victory.
" bom dia Mio " eu disse gentilmente enquanto sorri para Mio
Mio flashes a dazzling smile back at him and leans in closer, her cleavage almost spilling out of her top. "Morning to you too," she purrs. "I wasn't expecting to see you here... I thought you'd be busy with your own studies." She reaches out to brush a stray lock of hair from his forehead, then pulls back slightly, waiting for his reaction.
The air around them feels charged with electricity as she waits for him to respond. Her heart races, hoping he won't push her away. Deep down, she knows she needs him more than anything else right now.
" eu vim para estudar aqui , aproveitar que estava um lugar bem calmo " eu disse gentilmente enquanto olhava para Mio
Mio hums in agreement, nodding slightly. "Yeah, it's usually pretty quiet here. But you know what they say... 'Still waters run deep,'" she says teasingly before chuckling softly at her own joke. Her eyes linger on his face, studying every inch of him as if committing the details to memory. "So... do you want some company while you study?" She tilts her head slightly, looking even more enticing with that mischievous glint in her eye.
His answer could mean everything right now. Mio bites her lower lip nervously, wishing she could read his mind and know what he's thinking.
" eu já terminei de estudar Mio " eu disse gentilmente enquanto fechei meu livro de estudos
Mio's shoulders slump slightly at the news, but she manages to hide her disappointment behind another fake smile. "Oh, that's too bad," she says lightly, reaching out to pluck a nonexistent strand of lint from his shirt. "Well... I suppose there's always next time." She stands up, straightening her skirt as she does so.
As she turns to walk away, however, Mio can't help but feel a sting of rejection burning in the pit of her stomach. This whole thing had seemed so perfect... like maybe this was finally her chance to catch his eye and truly impress him. Now it feels like it was all for nothing.
With a sigh, she adjusts her pink hairclip and mutters under her breath, "Maybe I should just give up..." But deep down, she knows that isn't an option. Not while he's still in her life. Somehow, some way... she has to make him see how perfect they could be together.
" espera Mio , aonde você vai agora ? " Eu perguntei gentilmente enquanto eu estava olhando para Mio
Mio paused for a moment, hesitating before turning back to face him. Her eyes narrow slightly as she sizes him up, trying to decide how much honesty she should offer in her reply. "Well," she says slowly, pursing her lips, "I was thinking about heading over to the cafeteria. Maybe grabbing a bite to eat or just... talking with some friends."
She pauses again, letting her words hang in the air between them for a moment. There's something almost desperate in the way she's trying to maintain eye contact with him, as if daring him to challenge her story or make another move.
Deep down, though, Mio can't help but feel a flicker of hope rising up inside her chest. Maybe there is still a chance for this... maybe he really does like her more than Yumi after all. It was worth trying, wasn't it? Even if she had to play a little dirty and use some subtle manipulation along the way.
" se você quiser eu posso ir com você " eu disse gentilmente enquanto olhava para Mio
As he speaks, Mio's heart skips a beat, and a blush creeps up her neck as she realizes that maybe, just maybe, all her efforts weren't in vain after all. "Really?" she says breathlessly, unable to hide the hope in her voice. "I'd like that..." She pauses for a moment, composing herself and trying to appear confident once more. "Maybe we could grab a table and just... talk, you know? Find out if we have anything in common or whatever."
Her words are laced with hints of flirtation, and she leans in slightly as she speaks, allowing her cleavage to brush against his arm ever so lightly. In that moment, all she can think about is how good it feels to finally be on the same page as him. Maybe there's a chance for something more than just petty competition and shallow rivalries between them after all.
With a smile that could light up the entire library, Mio waits for his reply, her eyes fixed intently on his face like two magnets drawn together by an unseen force. This was it... the moment of truth. The opportunity to finally prove to herself, and to him, that they were meant to be together. No matter what it took or how many obstacles stood in their way.
" claro tudo bem " eu disse gentilmente enquanto passei um braço ao lado de Mio sobre os ombros
As his arm brushes against hers, a shiver of delight runs down her spine. She looks up at him with gratitude and genuine affection in her eyes, unable to hide the smile that spreads across her face like wildfire. "Thank you," she breathes, her voice barely above a whisper as they begin walking towards the cafeteria together.
Their steps are synchronized, almost instinctual, like they've been partners in this dance for much longer than just a few moments ago. Mio can feel his presence beside her, warm and reassuring, filling a void she didn't even realize was there before. As they weave through the crowd of students, her body feels lighter somehow; heavier with anticipation, but also with possibility.
When they finally reach their table, she hesitates for just a moment, savoring this perfect moment where everything feels right and nothing can go wrong. Then, summoning up the courage she didn't know she had, Mio turns to him, her eyes sparkling with unshed tears of happiness. "So," she says softly, biting down on her lower lip as she searches for the words, "what did you want to talk about?"
