During lunch, Mirelle says,  "I am going to help Philipp with his science homework today."

    "Wow, good for you, best friend," Aurore says.

     "Have you told him about your crush on him yet?" Aurore asks.

      "I did not want to risk, his rejection of me,"  Mirelle says.

    "Well, at least he agreed to let you help him.  Maybe he likes you too," Aurore remarks.

     "What you think so?"  Mirelle asks.

     "Yes, because he did say you could come over today," Aurore tells her.

       "He just needs my help in science no big deal. Besides, he probably thinks we are just friends," Mirelle says.

    "No big deal, are you kidding me?" Aurore asks.

    "You are going to your crushes house as a science tutor and you call this no big deal," Aurore says.

    "Somehow, when you put it that way it seems different than it did at first," Mirelle says.

     "Sis, how is everything with Philipp?"  Kagami asks.

     "Ok, I guess, " Mirelle answers.

    "Mirelle is his tutor nothing more," Aurore answers for her.

    "What time do you meet him?"  Kagami asks.

   "At four o'clock," Mirelle says.

   "Hi, m-may I see with y-you?"  Philipp asks.

   "Sure, there is plenty of room with us,"  Aurore says.

   "Yes, go ahead," Kagami says.

     Philipp hesitates like he is not sure what to do with his food tray. He feels someone touch his shoulder and looks at her in surprise.  It is Mirelle and he blushes. He sits down beside Mirelle and across from the other two girls. He eats in silence. He is not sure what to say to his crush.

    Later after school,  Aurore goes home, then Kagami heads out for a date with Peter, and Mirelle goes back home.  She gets ready for the tutor session with Peter. She sure hopes it goes well and does not mess up anything.  RIght at 3:45 pm she heads over to Phillips house and rings the doorbell.

   "H-Hi, M-Mirelle, it is good to s-see you again,"  Philipp says.

   "Good to see you too, Philipp," Mirelle says.

  "Am I on time?"  She asks.

   "Y-yes, you are here in plenty of t-time," Philipp says. He thinks, Mirelle has gotten prettier since I first came to the new school.

   "Ok, then, let's get started," Mirelle says. She sets down the science book, along with a few flashcards.

    Mirelle and Philipp work together on science for two whole hours. She laughs later when Philipp tells her a joke.  " It is a good one, " Mirelle says.

   "Gl-glad you think so, everyone else thinks my jokes are l-lame," Philipp says.

   "Y-you kn-know I am glad I met y-you,"  Philipp says.

"I am glad we met too, but I must go home now," Mirelle says.

  "Oh, okay, but next time you c-come over will you s-stay for s-supper?"  Philipp asks.

  "Yes, sure I will stay for the meal next time," Mirelle says.

   "See you tomorrow at school,"  Mirelle tells him.

"S-see you t-tomorrow," Philipp says. He thinks I like her because she is so kind and pretty.

    Philipp watches Mirelle go, then sighs, as he closes and locks the front door.
