Bad Time - Population: You

Love at Wrong Sight


Don't be so cynical: love at first sight definitely exists. What also exists is love at wrong sight. Both of you feel a spark, hearts a-flutter, magnetism in full force, all the tell-tale signs of an instant pull, so what's the problem?

Well, there are some big problems. One of you could be taken, you could be on opposites sides of a battle or movement, you have a duty that conflicts with romance, this could be the wrong place at the absolute wrong time, the attraction could be forbidden, or any litany of pitfalls you can imagine could exist. Oh why oh why are you having this sudden swooning now? Here? It's no use denying you're in a pickle.

The quandary is...will you avoid this flight of fancy or will affairs of the heart hit you square in the chest?

"And what do I want?"

It bothered her how determined he was at her staying. Was he using her? Did he honestly want her to stay?

What she wanted? Was immaterial, irrelevant, in the end. But he couldn't pass up a chance to tease her:

"Oh? You're asking me to tell you that after all?"

"Yes. Because you don't know."

"Then tell me," he said, with an air of simply humoring her. "When you look in the years ahead, what do you see?"

A pause.

"Me with those I love"

"Your sultana?" The question was pointed. He'd gone to great trouble to make Makoto believe she had been left here alone... by the sultana.

"My friends."

He did and she made it a point that no matter what, even if they forgot about her, that she wouldn't forget them.
