"Second year, 2-B," Toru read aloud once he picked up the parchment and leaves. That removed a lot of potential senders. Who was in 2-B? Maeko, Masami, Renju, Keiichi, Kouchisei, Toshimi... then there's that Kazuya guy and Noriko... From the earlier clue, Toshimi, Maeko, and Noriko were eliminated. This left him slightly flustered; only one of the remaining candidates was a girl. And unless Renju really was his secret admirer... well, Toru had to come to grips with this at some point or another. On a piece of notebook paper, he quickly scrawled out a response:

"So, now what? Should I just wait until Friday? I'll meet you here then, if that's what you want."

Like all the other replies, this one came with an almost unnerving amount of haste. Someone could have gone for a exodus to the nearest restroom and returned, to find a reply. And this time? There was not just a letter, but something else too! The person seemed obsessive with this gift business. Surely they must have some reserve of money for love-gifts. In any case:

This time there was a pristine gaming magazine, still in its plastic mint-condition wrap. It seemed to be the latest, in fact, and could have been bought this morning from the condition it was in. Attached to it, was yet another flower! This person surely liked to converse with flowers. Five petals of white adorned the tied five jonquils, the centerpiece of the flower was cups of golden, feathery soft hearts.

A map was also attached, stapled with the flowers to the magazine's plastic wrapping. The map seemed to be that of a nearby park, hand-drawn by the looks of it. A single bench was circled on the outskirts of the park, amongst a grove of trees. A private place? On the side of the map itself was written, 'Friday, I'll be there early. Bring the flower, I'll have one to match, so you'll know it's me. Do you know who I am?' A smiley face was drawn next to that. Ever one for the positive reinforcement.

- Your Secret Admirer

It really puzzled Toru that the reply came so quickly. Was his admirer lurking just out of sight or something? But the gift was quite a welcome one. Another magazine, this one in mint condition, along with more flowers and a note. He'd have to read it when he got back to the dorms. And the flowers...? If Toru remembered correctly from his research the previous day, they stood for returned affection.

Yet, neither of those gifts was the important part. The map was. Toru recognized the park indicated on it; the outskirts of it were visible from his dorm, after all. Toru privately vowed to be there as soon as possible.

On another piece of paper, he replied: "I'll meet you there, and bring the flowers, too. I think I may have some ideas of who you are," and placed it where the previous gift had been.

Another dazzling quick reply, this time with no more than a note. Perhaps the Secret Admirer was trying to space out his gifts? Either way, there it lay. The script left lying in its usual place, the ink still damp on the paper.

"Do you? I look forward to it. Our hearts will find each other when we meet for Love can guide its way blindfolded."

That Friday, Toru hurried to the park indicated on the map as fast as he could manage. His arms were full of the flowers collected from his shoebox over the week, and the latest note he carried in his pocket. His heart was pounding harder than ever before in his life; partly from running, partly from the the thrill of the whole situation. As he searched for the grove of trees and the bench among them, he began to wonder. Were they telling the truth? Is it really somebody in 2-B? Could it be Kouchisei-kun? And, as he ruminated further through the week's events, Are Kanaye-sempai and Tom-sempai around here? That one he tried to put out of his mind; it ruined the romanticism.

Finally, Toru found the bench. Nobody was in sight. Was he too early? Was this just a prank? Either way, he sat down and waited, nervously tapping one hand on his leg.

	Kanaye is a ninja. Stealthily, he followed, making sure neither Toru nor anyone else saw him. Well, Toru at least. Everyone else saw him, as he waved to them as he passed. He hid behind a tree, waving amicably to a rather shocked biker. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Yoshimi was next on the scene. How could she not be? The whole school was abuzz with rumors that forbidden love was about to bloom, and she didn't trust anyone's cell phone camera but her own to preserve the whole thing for posterity.

Settling in behind a suitable tree, she waved at - is that Satou-senpai? Well, she supposed he'd come in handy if the letters turned out to be an elaborate trap of some kind.

Tom was quite a bit more stealthy then Kanaye, certainly a surprising revelation to all.

He'd hidden himself nearby, the spot had been picked out so that no one could see him. Of course it was his second choice. Once he saw Satou there he moved spots so he could also keep an eye on the third year.

He'd gotten early hoping to catch Toru's would be assailant checking the place out, but that hadn't worked out.
