I know where your coming from, but dude, just causally mentioned it probably won't help. It would probably just make her embressed.

>Leave out the "or lovers" part.

>You mentally correct yourself before speaking.

>Koishi thinks for a moment, before turning to Kokoro.
>"Kokoro-chan... I... I want to restart from the beginning. The reason I held on to your mask for so long was... well, I thought you were interesting, even back then when I wasn't... myself... I felt that you wouldn't want anything to do with me if I returned it, that and, well, the mask made me feel good... I wanted to hold on to it for that reason to... I'm sorry for being selfish and not returning what is rightfully yours..."

>Kokoro allows the mask to float around her, before looking Koishi in the eye with her blank expression.
>"My arch-enemy..." she says after a brief silence, "I accept your apology." her mask switches to an inquisitive expression, "so... you truly want to start things over between us...?"

>Koishi nods slowly.

>"Well..." Kokoro's mask switches to a pondering expression, "I suppose there's no real harm in trying... Assuming this isn't a trick."
