Chapter 6 - An Unexpected Movie Night

It's a Saturday evening, and Kyle's friends suggest going to the movies. Although he isn't too excited, Kyle decides to join them when he hears Mayu will be there too. They end up sitting next to each other, their arms almost touching in the dimly lit theater.

The movie starts, a romantic drama with quiet, emotional moments that stir an unspoken tension between them. Halfway through the movie, their hands brush as they both reach for popcorn at the same time. Kyle's heart skips, and Mayu quickly pulls her hand away, a flush rising to her cheeks. Kyle pretends to focus on the movie, but the closeness lingers in the air, making him more aware of her presence.

As they leave the theater, their friends laugh and chat about the film, but Kyle and Mayu walk quietly beside each other. Mayu feels flustered, and Kyle can't stop thinking about how close they were. The silence between them is comfortable yet heavy with things left unsaid. At the end of the night, they say goodbye with a shared look that says more than words.
