Kai would feel her head raise, but probably wouldn't be able to see how her eyes blinked wide. She... shouldn't read into that. Not even with how warmly his arms brought her closer--no, all of this was just Kaito being Kaito. That extra little jump in her chest was just extra silly.

Brushing it off was probably the correct course of action, but when Kyoko opened her mouth to scoff or joke, she found she could only let out a very soft, "Oh."

There was another pause, before she ducked her head again. "It... was kinda lonely. I don't think I said it properly, but... I was really happy when you messaged me."
