I do not own: Miss Komi Is Bad At Communication

-x-

A slightly different evening.

(Two-shot, I guess...)

Due to her communication disorder, Komi always overthinks things before or after doing them. For example, after leaving her crush standing outside her house, she could not stop thinking about what she had just done. Did I do it right and what if he doesn't feel the same way and did I just ruin our friendship are some of the many things going through her mind.

After a while of kicking her legs and tossing herself around her bed, she stopped only to hear the sounds of people talking outside her window. Peeking through the shutters of her bedroom window she spots here mother talking very excitedly to Tadano, her crush.

Why did I leave him there, what if he hates me for ditching him and he doesn't want to be with me, what will my mother say? Komi's thoughts start flooding back as she stares at his face. After a couple minutes of talking, her mother waves off Tadano and heads back inside the household, but Komi continues to watch Tadano walk away. Infact, she was so busy staring she didn't see her over-enthusiastic mother creep up to Komi's door.

"Eeeek! My precious little daughter got herself a booooy-frieeeend!" Komi's eyes widened as she spun around to see her mother, hands closed and pressed against her jaw, squealing into her room. Komi quickly started waving her hands around signalling her to stop. "And you didn't tell me," she added with a dark gaze.

Tadano breathed out a sigh of relief. He finally managed to escape Komi's mother and was making his way home. She had pummeled him with questions like how's my daughter and what do you like about her so Tadano had to wait until the first chance he got to escape.

But still that was not the part he was thinking of. All the way along the worn-down concrete pathway his thoughts were entirely occupied by Komi. He never admitted to himself that he had feelings for her, nor did he know if she had anything for him besides friendship. Now he knows. Now he has realised why he still struggles to say her name without blushing or why she always goes red in the face when caught staring at him.

Wait, did she plan all that? Thats very unlike her. I wonder if Najimi had anything to do with it? Tadano walked into his house and flopped down straight onto his bed. He has had one very eventful afternoon, not to mention his best afternoon.

BUZZZZZ

Tadano's phone buzzed next to him from a text message sent by Najimi. "Speak of the literal devil..." He muttered as he unlocked his phone to see the whole message.

Hey hey hey, you best and favourite childhood friend here! How was you afternoon Tadano ;) ? Was you walk with Komi very Romantic? I totally was not associated with it what so ever-

"As if I'd believe that"

-so please tell me how it went. :P

Too tired to think straight, Tadano briefly replied with: It was nice. and sent it. Besides, he still has unfinished business to take care of tomorrow.

Komi lay in her bed awake with the whole afternoon's scene going through her head. She could hear her mother downstairs excitedly telling her brother and her dad about Komi's new 'boy-friend'. That most certainly made her smile, even if it was just a little bit. She started to hope that the next day wouldn't be awkward for them but considering that Najimi was involved with the afternoon plan, it didn't seem likely to be that way.

Maybe he had liked it. Maybe things might work out.

After wondering if the one-shot was a bit too short, I had the idea of maybe I should make a 'shot' for the evening/night and morning that follows so here you are ;)
