... she's sort of hard to miss, yeah. And no, she didn't. She... knows I might be interested. [Cough] She knows I was thinking about it, trying to figure out my feelings. And she told me she'd think about if I asked. She definitely didn't say no, but she also definitely didn't say yes.

Ngh... but this stupid disease is forcing my hand a bit. [Hack] It doesn't do me any good to tell yo this. I told, like, four people besides her. My possible interest is not a secret, which means if I have something to confess...

I have to decide, and I think I know what that is, and I have to tell her. Because of course I do.
