You still waited for Y/O/N-kun’s
reply. You wondered why he wasn’t replying. It has been a month since you sent
him that last message. He was starting to be a stranger to you again. Of
course, you didn’t want that to happen. So you thought of sending him this
final message. Final message because you didn’t want to bother him anymore.
You decided to send this message to him:
“Listen, our friendship was one of the best things that happened to me. I
thought our friendship would last but I guess you don’t like people like me.
Maybe you really don’t like a girl for a friend. Well… uh... I understand. It
was nice talking to you, Y/O/N.”
Right before pressing the “send” button, a notification
popped up.
“You just received a
message from Y/O/N.”
“Wha-?” You said. “Wow, wrong timing” you said but
this time with a smile. You were half excited because long have you waited for
his message and half not excited because… well… you waited too long.
You then
pressed the notification which led you to Y/O/N-kun’s message.
It went like this:
Y/O/N: Uh… Hey Y/N-chan… Could we please meet up at the
Summer Festival tomorrow?
You: What? After you ignored me for a whole month you want
to meet up?
Y/O/N: Please…? I’ll explain
everything.
You: This better not be those pranks.
Y/O/N: No. Promise.
Y/O/N-kun said
what time and what place were you guys are going to meet up.
You still had second thoughts of showing up tomorrow but he
sounded serious so… you were like “why not?”
It was already 5:30 in the afternoon. You thought of buying
foods at a local convenience store so you asked your parents for permission and
went out. As you stepped out from the store, you saw Miya-chan.
“Oh hi, Miya-chan!” you said. Miya-chan responded “Hello.
What brings you here?”
“I was just buying some snacks.”
“Oh. Well, are you going to the Summer Festival?” she asked.
“Yeah… I guess… I’m not really sure. Y/O/N-kun
asked me to be there.” You said. Miya-chan looked at you with an excited face.
“OH MY GOODNESS RAI-CHAN AND SHIRA-CHAN MUST KNOW THIS!” she said. “No! Don’t
tell them. Because… uh… reasons… hehe” you said. “Can I help you with your yukata?” She asked. “No thanks. My mom
will help me.”
“Aw :< Okay… see you at the festival tomorrow then” she
said. “Yeah” you said with a forced smile. The two of you had gone home. You
were looking at your mother while she’s fixing/preparing your yukata for
tomorrow. The yukata was in your favorite color and had floral design patterns.
It looked simple yet beautiful.
((NEXT DAY))
You are now preparing your things before the festival later.
You’ll go alone because your parents said so. Yes, your final decision was…
you’re gonna meet up with Y/O/N-kun
in the festival because you needed to ask him why wasn’t he replying.
Since you have nothing to do, you went with your mom to the
grocery store and bought things that are needed inside the house. You also
looked for things that you’ll possibly need in the festival like alcohol,
perfume or band aids.
It was already 4:50 in the afternoon. Your mom did your
hair, helped you with your dress and applied light make up to your face.
“Wow! My daughter looks like a lady!” said your mom. “My
little one is now grown up” said your dad while fake sobbing. “Yeah right” you
said while you jokingly rolled your eyes. Your mom poked your side (to tickle
you) and said “Off with you then. Your dad will drop you off.”
You finally arrived at the festival. You saw colorful
yukatas and different stalls. You saw stalls that sell yakisoba, takoyaki and
stalls that has games. The food and game stalls caught your excited mood and
started wondering around like you don’t care. You were easily amazed about the
things you saw. You were like a kid. You started to forget why you went to the
festival.
You went and bought candy apples. While wondering around
while eating your candy apple, you saw Miya-chan, Rai-chan and Shira-chan. “Y/N-chan! We’re so sorry! We thought you
won’t go! Since you hate going to festivals.” Said Rai-chan. “Plus Miya-chan
said that you weren’t sure.” Shira-chan said. You just said “It’s ok. It was a
50/50 decision.”
“So… Did you guys already meet up?” Miya-chan said while
looking at you with a smug face. “OH MY GLOB!” you slightly shouted and almost
fling your candy apple in the air. “I forgot!” You said. You looked like you
were panicking. “Sorry, gotta go! Jaa
ne~!”
You rushed to the place where Y/O/N-kun told you to meet up. You looked at the time if it’s
already the designated time that he said to you.
“6:55pm”
You sighed in relief because you’re five minutes early. The
place where he said to meet up was very quiet, away from people. The place has
lots of plants and has a few seats. Traditional lamps lighted the place up. It
looked like a mini garden and the aura there was super calm. You sat at one of
the seats there and waited.
Waited….
Waited….
Waited until a few people were left in the festival. You
looked at the time and it was already getting late. You waited for hours. You
thought it was one of his jokes again. You were so mad that you cried. You were
mad because you hate waiting so long and you hate being tricked. You looked
very angry while tears streamed down your face.
You said bad stuff about him out loud (though you were the
only one who can hear you). You were so mad that you stood up and repeatedly
punched the bamboo beside the seat that you sat on. You kept on punching the
bamboo while crying and while saying bad stuff about Y/O/N-kun like how he’s a joke and others.
Not long, Y/O/N-kun
appeared out of nowhere and saw you punching the bamboo. He hugged you to stop
you from what you were doing and said “stop that! You’re just hurting
yourself!”
You pushed him away and looked at him with an angry face and
with teary eyes. “Why do I always have to wait?! I have been patient for so
long! I waited for your stupid reply but you just made me wait for nothing! And
now you made me wait for hours! You know I panicked when I thought I was late!”
You said.
He brought out his handkerchief and wiped away your tears. “You
look beautiful” he said, looking like he’s joking you or something. “Stop it! I’m
still mad at you!” You said then pushed him away again. He still went up to you
to wipe your tears. “Listen, okay, I’m sorry that you had to wait so long tonight. I needed to work out my
nerves.” “Why didn’t you reply to my message a month ago? I also waited, you baka! You also made me worried sick.”
You said while sobbing. Your face looked red from all that crying. Y/O/N-kun continued to wipe off your
tears gently. ‘’I also needed to work out my nerves that time.” He said.
Then you stepped back and slightly shouted at him “NERVES?!
WHAT NERVES?! WHY IS IT ALWAYS NERVES?!”
He held the both of your hand and said
“Y/N-chan, I’ve been
waiting for this moment, this right time.
At school, I don’t have the guts to talk to you because I think about negative
things that will happen when I’ll go close to you and start talking to you. I always
thought that you would say I’m weird and awkward and you’d probably say that ‘why
did he suddenly approach me?’ and other impressions but my day was always
complete because of you.
I don’t know but you just have this special thing that would make me feel
complicated… When I look at you, it’s just so hard to breathe… I can’t explain
this feeling… b-b-but… please get my point.
You make my heart beat fast… you inspire me every single day.
I-I-I know... I’m bad at these things but I just need to express my feelings
because I can’t hide it anymore.
All these feelings started when I met you. The first time I
saw you.”
You were speechless at the time. You just looked at him with
a shocked face. You didn’t know what to do or what to tell him.
He tucked the strand of your hair that was hanging in your
face in your ear, smiled at you and said, “Thank you for waiting for my reply, Y/N-chan. My reply for your message is… I don’t want to be just a brother or a friend to you. I
want to be more than that…
Daisuki, Y/N-chan.”

Arissaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa desuuuuuuuuu! Just finished celebrating my fangirl
anniversary ;u; I’m so happy~! I wish that you, reader, will also be loyal to
M!LK.
Oh and, Ta..da..? xD Just finished my story (fangirl service) “Reply-short
story”. Neeeeee…? What do you think? Is it ok? Was it boring or a little to
fast or…? I’ll hear you out! Just leave a comment down! Oh, and I’m also
thinking of doing separate fangirl service of M!LK stories.
It’s like “Reply” but shorter and
separated. One story for Jinto-san, one story for Daichi-san, one story for
Haruki-san, one story for Hayato-san and one story for Mizuki-san.
Is it a great idea? :3 I know, I know this blog is becoming a story thing but…
I’ll still try to update you about M!LK.
Jaa neeeeeee~!
