After some time spent crying, Sakura finally pulls away from Adam, wiping away her tears.
Embarrassment colors her face, her gaze lowered. She mumbles, "I've shown you such an ugly side of myself…."
Hearing this, Adam quickly shakes his head. "Ugly? I didn't see it that way at all," he replies with sincerity, his tone warm. "In fact, I think it was fantastic. I think I've just become your biggest fan."
Sakura glances up at him, a surprised laugh escaping her lips. For the first time, her laughter is genuine, lightening her expression as she smiles.
She jokes, "So… you're the same guy who was staring at me this morning?"
Adam chuckles, scratching his head. "I'm sorry about that. I… I was just lost in thought."
Sakura's smile lingers as she watches him, and a sudden impulse strikes her. "Would you mind… if we met again sometime like this?" she asks, her voice soft but hopeful.
