Akiha spends a long while mulling on that. Too long. She doesn't even react to Nico squeezing her hand, as focused as she is on her words.
A date. She knows that's essentially what she wanted. She knows that's what her feelings are. But - she can't accept that. It isn't what the head of her family should be doing. More than that, it just isn't possible. She's never exactly been attracted to any man - her father had tried to arrange a marriage for her once and she'd found the whole thing utterly disgusting, as a matter of fact - but still, for her to be attracted to another woman?
It just shouldn't be happening. She chews on her cheek for a moment and very deliberately pulls away from Nico. She's stopped moving, one hand on her hip, the other, ridiculously, still holding her crepe. "Don't be stupid, Yazawa."
