Ch. 5: Symbol of Wife! (SUN)
Randa: "You, my bride!"
Randa held me tightly with his powerful arms.
My heart started pounding loudly.
OO: "U-um…Randa?"
Randa: "What taking flower mean!"
OO: "What it means?"
Randa: "Symbol of proposal!"
OO: "Eh!?"
Randa: "You take it!"
I-it had that kind of meaning…
Confused, I looked down at the white flowers I had taken.
At that time…-
OO: "…!"
Randa moved his face in close and our noses touched.
Randa: "No?"
OO: "That's…we've only just met and all."
Randa: "OO!"
His serious eyes pierced right through me.
My heart started pounding even louder.
OO: "Randa…"
Randa moved his face even closer and I reflexively drew back.
OO: "W-wait!"
Randa: "What?"
OO: "C-can you give me a little time?"
Randa: "Time?"
OO: "We still don't know each other that well. I'd like you to know more about me. How about we spend more time together, a-
and then we can think about marriage?"
Randa: "…"
Randa stared at me.
Then…-
Randa: "OK!!"
He responded with a smile as bright as the sun.
OO: "Thank you."
Randa: "You know me! After, you be wife!"
…I wonder if he actually gets it.
Randa: "It promise!"
I felt a brief moment of relief when…-
Suddenly, Randa's face came in closer and I felt something soft on my forehead.
OO: "…!"
That was…
In a panic, I checked my forehead.
The sensation still lingered.
A kiss…?
Randa: "Symbol of wife!"
Randa grinned and once again moved in close.
OO: "…!"
He grabbed my hand as I moved it to cover my forehead.
Then, after he moved my hand away, he kissed my forehead again.
Randa: "Symbol!"
His smile was like the sun.
As that smile shone on me, I felt my heart leap as my chest heated up.
