She laughed, holy crap she laughed at that super lame joke. Her laughing was actually making Kyle beam a bit brighter, it seemed like his message of kindness might have gotten through. She thanked him and bowed, he scratched his head and laughed sheepishly. Now actually standing upright before this girl, he realized she didn't have just a small frame, but she was really super short too, like he was a giant in comparison. Thinking on that, he actually found that kind of adorable, just first impressions he found her to be a sweet girl, if not a bit innocent and very honest, her face showed more emotion than anyone he had known.

 "I'm sorry I ran away Senpai. I didn't expect you to notice me and I got scared. It's just when I saw you there... under the tree... you looked so... serene. I wanted to capture that moment. I hope you're not angry."

Serene was not exactly what he was feeling at the time she took his photo, so that was the last thing he expected to hear. As for the anger part, no he wasn't, he was more intrigued since this girl viewed him as serene, but before reassure her she continued.

"Do you want to... um..." Her face was pretty flushed...was she? "...maybe I can make it up to you?... I can make lunch."

[i]"Did she just ask-"[/i]

"Not like a date or anything! I just want to apologize!"

Kyle couldn't help but burst into laughter after she blurted that out, "you know," he said after calming down, "people who usually say stuff like that, mean the exact opposite, but I'll take your word for it," he smiled brightly at her.

In all seriousness though he was honestly pretty tired of the cafe food, so getting his hands on some real food was a great treat The fact that a cute girl was making the food for him too actually sweetened the deal. He nodded his head in a determined affirmation, "but yea, you can definitely make it up to me with some lunch." Almost as an afterthought he was compelled to say to her, "Hey, about that Senpai thing, I think that might be a little too stuffy for me, just call me Kyle."
