1. "Hey serena, is this a hoary stock flower engraved on the nib?"
1. "Why do you ask?"
1. "Aren't the flowers and the pen from the same person? That's why I assumed that they were both..."
1. "No. The one on the pen is a roseleaf bramble."
1. "How'd you know?"
1. "Because I'm the one who got you that pen."
1. "Oh, then the flowers..."
2. "The flowers are from avery"
1. "From avery?"
2. "Huh? Why would avery send me flowers? Shouldn't he be sending them to you instead?"
1. "The one who chatted with him all night..."
1. "Wasn't that you?"
1. Her pheromones turned sour again... Was it because of avery?
2. No, that doesn't make sense. I didn't even give them the opportunity to look at each other that night...
1. Wait a second... Could it be, she wasn't jealous of me, but...
2. "Avery?"
1. "Why don't you try out the pen and see if you like it first?"
1. She really does love roseleaf brambles, huh.
1. "Brambles, huh..."
1. "Huh? There doesn't seem to be any ink in the cartridge..."
2. "Hey serena, could you fill this up with ink for me?"
1. "Sure."
1. "Here, pass it to me."
1. "There, all done."
2. "Oh... Thanks."
1. "Here, why don't you try writing something with it?"
1. "Okay..."
1. "Oh my god, it's hideous, isn't it... I'm worse than a child!"
1. "It looks fine. Much better than a kid's writing."
2. "You don't have to rush it. It's your first day practicing, after all."
1. "But it really looks terrible..."
1. *sigh* if I'd started practicing earlier, I wouldn't be embarrassing myself in front of her now.
2. "Here."
1. "I'll guide you."
1. Like
1. It's as if a string of "Likes" is guiding me forward.
1. Like
2. Like
3. I like serena
1. "Serena"
1. "What's wrong?"
1. "Wh-why did you teach me this of all things?"
3. "Well, I was a leftie when I was younger. Unfortunately, just when I learned how to write my name, I was asked to switch to"
1. "Writing with my right."
2. "That's the one word I'm best at. Have you forgotten?"
1. "Forgotten?"
2. "That way, the first name you learn to write would be mine, not someone else's."
1. "I don't remember too clearly anymore..."
1. It's been less than a year since I came to this world.
2. Nothing in this world actually belongs to me...
1. Even if I worked hard to score an a in biology...
2. The one who serena spent her past with will always be a different person.
1. Do I...
1. Really have the right to harbor these feelings for her?
