[Junkos gasps at Kotarou’s admission. She was kept so far from everyone as an idol that she’s never had a boy tell her he likes her before. She’s had fans say that, but they didn’t really know her, not like Kotarou did. He’d seen her at her most shy, he’d seen her breakdown over rehearsal, he’d even seen her scarred body and he still liked her. How was Junko supposed to resist that? She spoke meekly and quietly to him.]

I… I think I’d like that. I think I like you too. You promise you really like me right?
