Sera's POV:

At the moment Sera was having a storm of emotions that went from shock, happiness, embarrassment, and many others that she could not put into words.

In the first place, she liked Clara as a friend and had never seen her as anything more than that. The girl had a way of making her laugh and relax like no one else that she knew, her easygoing manner was a contrast to Sera's rigid upbringing and routine.

"Sera you have that look on your face which means you are thinking complicated things again. I don't pride myself on being the best kisser but I like to think I am not the worst"

Seeing Clara nervous and unable to read her mind for once brought a smile to her face.

"Hmmmm... sorry don't want to make you nervous I am just surprised. To me, this came out of nowhere and I don't know how to respond to it, also this was my first kiss ever so I can't really compare it to anything else"

"Wait I took your first kiss, really? But you are well... Sera I know you are a bit unaware of yourself but you are beautiful, that is really surprising, to be honest. I can try kissing you again if you want to compare it?"

She started to wiggle her eyebrows in an inquisitive way to see if I would approve of it

"No, one kiss is enough for today, let's sit down under the sun and try to dry off before we catch a cold"

After finding a clean enough patch of grass that was hidden enough from view so that others could not see us. The two of them lay down under the sun and finally, Sera was able to straighten her thoughts and come up with a question. Clara had been particularly patient with her at this point not pressuring her or asking any other questions. While looking at the sunny sky she was finally able to ask.

"Clara, do you like me and I mean in a romantic sense?"

"Well guessing from what I just did, yes I guess I do. To be honest Sera I didn't really like you all that much when I saw you in the kitchen for the first time. I just thought that you were just another rich girl coming to do her obligatory labor to help the poor people in the lower stratum"

Sera was about to protest at this, but Clara stopped her.

"I know now that it was a bigoted opinion so no need to defend yourself. I know that you don't have to come anymore to the kitchen, but you keep coming every week twice a week. You treat the other staff and even some of the regulars with respect and most of all it seems like you actually enjoy what you are doing"

Sera didn't really put that much thought into her actions, but when someone else put them out into the open like that she felt slightly embarrassed.

"Then after I met you I started to think more about you and at some point, you just would not leave my head. With all that said yes Sera I like you, romantically, as you say. I would like for you to reciprocate the feelings but I know that we live in two different worlds. I also like you as a friend and as a confidant so I don't want my feelings to put a crack in the middle of our friendship"

Sera listened to Clara's words and now looking back she could see how some of their conversations could indicate some of her feelings, but she being as dense as she could sometimes be, did not pay any particular attention to them.

"Sera I know that I caught you by surprise today so there is no need for you to answer back right now. I know that you like to think things thoroughly so let's just enjoy the sun, go back to your place and you can get back to me in a couple of days, sounds good?"

Once again Sera was impressed at how well this girl knew her.

After that, they just fell asleep next to each other in the park next to each other and after waking up they went back to her house where each of them took a shower and Clara left since she had some work to do that night.

"Well see you in a couple of days at the kitchen, we can talk there, okay?"

With that said Clara waved goodbye to her and walked down the street toward the middle stratum entrance as the orange dusk sky started turning dark.

Sera went back to her home and started to think about the events of the day, even before getting to bed she kept ruminating about her first kiss and then came to the conclusion that she really liked Clara that way. With a sense of excitement but also exhausted she went to bed looking forward to talking with Clara in the future.

But sadly that conversation would not happen.
