***

Serena can't sit still on the sofa placed at the Pokémon Center. She groaning, frowning and radiating not so pleasant atmosphere. Or we can say that she is uncomfortable. That uncomfortable that she encountered is uncomfortable that every girl in love with the other often encountered. No one is comfortable when they are jealous, right?

Well yes, Serena is jealous.

The fact that Serena secretly likes Ash, no one can't know it... except for Ash! Gosh! So that whenever she thinks about it, she just wants to cry!

The thing is, yesterday they met Miette when they stopped in this city. At first, all of them are greeting Miette just like the other time, but the way that the blue-haired girl greet Serena is unexpectedly unique. She just provocative on Serena's smooth love story, but not long after that, Ash's thoughtful face appeared really clear in Serena's eyes. Ash ran up to Miette when Serena hasn't asked him yet. Surprisingly, he says something to Miette makes Clement, Bonnie, Serena and even the blue-haired – girl shocked:

- Miette! Please teach me how to make sweets!

After hearing Ash's suggestion, all of them are lagged, even Pikachu look at him with a face like: 'What? Master, what did you just said?'. And the most shocked person is her, Serena. Actually, the thing that Ash wants to learn how to make sweets is not all that shock, but... why did he want Miette to teach him? No one knows what he wants to do. Is Ash really thinks that his partner, Serena don't have enough level compare to Miette? Probably he doesn't have that thinking. Because he probably doesn't have that thinking so a girl is sad because of love like Serena can be really worried. From the very start to now, she didn't stop form thinking about it, but can't find a reason for that. And because of, the suggestion by Ash to Miette is from 'Please teach me how to make sweets!' change to 'I like you, I just want you to teach me. Then in the future, I can make so that you can it a lot of it!'.

Argh! Just let her bang her head to the pillow and die!

-Boohoo!

Serena prone down the table with the boredom, don't even notice her honey-colored – hair tangled.

"I'm sure that at this time, the two of them are in the Pokémon Center's kitchen and doing romantic things like the other couples right? Ugh!"

Even if she thought so, but Serena, will there coupe does things like that when they brought Slurpuff and Pikachu with them? Gosh. Girls when jealous can't think of anything than the romantic scenes between their crush with the other.

-Hey Serena! Today is 'the day'! Everyone in the city is hanging out uproarious out there! Will you go with me and big brother?

Outside of the Pokémon Center, Bonnie looks in and call her. But Serena doesn't have the mood to play for now. Now she is ore than discouraged!

-No, I won't. You and Clement can just go.

-Well, then we are hanging out! I will tell big brother to buy you some sweets or marshmallows for you!

-What?

Bonnie left when Serena was wondering what is she talking about, so she just ignores it. Serena is back to the bad mood again... A while later, a bad thought suddenly appears in her head:

-Oh yes! If I want to know what are they doing, then just stalk them!

Well, just because she is a gentle and modest girl so now she just thinks about the stalk. Yes, the stalk is bad! But now, just need to know what they are doing, then she doesn't need to know if she has any brazen left!

After all of the thought, Serena spring up. Her face now is serious than ever.

*

Reach the kitchen's door without making any noise!

Serena is secretly looking in the kitchen, carefully little by little. She even knows that she is sweating. Stalking like this is so tired with her!

Oh, but things that happened in the kitchen is not the same as her thought. It is really clear that Miette is teaching and Ash is learning really normal. There is no romantic action like the scenes that Serena build-up, right? Her soul is now worried less, but she notices at the same time that builds up those scenes are so crazy!

*

-Oh... I still just can't understand.

-Fenne.

Held her Pokémon, she can't stop lament. Fennekin is discouraged just like Serena and didn't respond to her master. It just says random words but doesn't have any meaning.

-But... Is there any festival or something?

Stop from thinking about Ash, Serena look around the street that she is walking. All the stores are decorated with hearts, sweets, presents and many things else. Not to fancy but really cute and quite romantic. All of the people are walking in pairs so a person like her, walking with a Pokémon is quite lonely.

Suddenly, a big title from the screen of a tower in front of her 'bang' to her eyes: "What do you want your boyfriend to give you in White Valentine's Day?"

-Oh right! Today is White Valentine's Day! So that is why Bonnie told me that she will tell Clement to buy some sweets for me!

-Fennekin!

- Oh... But...

Today is the day that the boys will give the girls a present to confess their feeling. Most of the presents will be chocolate, candy or cookies. A lot of sweets!

-Fen—Fennekin!!

-Oh, sorry little girl!

Serena startle, notice that because of the stress, her arms wrapped Fennekin tightly so she is hurt.

-I really want to know... Let's get back to the Pokémon Center!

Fennekin just surprises that Serena is really 'stick' to the one her master have crushed that much. It sighed, express an annoyance with Serena and just secretly cry as an agreement.

-Fennekin...

Just like that, Serena runs back to the Pokémon Center with a target: Find out the one that Ash wants to give presentations on Valentine's Day.

*

- You really want to learn huh?

-Well, yeah!

Miette giggled, but Ash is really into with the ingredients and cooking. She is really serious just like when he is training with his Pokémon.

-Pika Pika!

-Slurpuff Puff!

-Hey! You two shouldn't eat that much!

Even Miette scold at them, they just laugh a little. They didn't listen to her and eat sweets as nothing happens.

"Oh... Please change the subject to the target of Ash in White Valentine's Day."

Once again, Serena secretly looks in the kitchen.

"Or maybe it is me?"

-Ah... No, I don't think so!

Just like that, Serena cheeks' are hotter and red as a tomato. If it is a gift for Serena, then the thing that Ash asked Miette to teach him in the morning is not that hard to understand. No boys will ask a girl to teach them making sweets if they want to give sweets to her.

Ugh... Just pretend that she is in an ambiguous dream. So what? That is how the girls secretly love the other!

So... she doesn't need to break the dream that fast.

-Hey Miette! This is for you!

"What?"

-For... For me?

When she was immersed in her imagination, the kitchen work was done. By her blue eyes now, Ash raises a small bag full of marshmallow in front of Miette.

-Well, you teach me, right? Because of you, I ... [...]

Ash's voice lower and lower, because of the distance so Serena doesn't know what he said later. His face is confused a little red. Serena is really sure that Ash gives Miette sweets on Valentine's Day not only because she teaches him. Really sure that it is because of his feeling for Miette...

She doesn't care if she is stalking them, she doesn't care if she is making noticeable noise. She runs away with her eyes are fading...

-?!

-Serena? Oh, wait Serena! SERENA!

Heard the call but she did not bother to return.

*

Serena is sitting under a tree at a corner of a park in the city. A romantic day like this is hard to find a peaceful and quiet, no people pass. But now, she fins a place where she can 'relax'.

Facedown on two knees, her eyes can't stop from running down, make two of her knees wet. Maybe Ash likes Miette... It seems to be quite inconsequential when they just meet each other several times, not too friendly. But Serena secretly agrees that Miette is cute in her own way, she bakes so well. Serena also scared that Miette is up above her. If Ash likes 'her', Serena can't comment anything. Oh, she doesn't have any permission to comment. She just whimpering over and over.

-Oh! There you are!

Serena heard a familiar voice, make her startled. She turns away, wipes all the tears but she knows that even she wipe it cleanest, everyone could know very easily. So she just stops.

-What happened to you?

Ash approaches Serena and sits next to her. The more she turned away, the more she doesn't want him to look at her face is so wet. But he didn't leave it alone. He grabs her cheeks and turns it to him, face to face with him. She was surprised because of the action. Ash looks straight to Serena's eyes. Her eyes are always as blue as the sky, but now it is red. It just makes her heart pounding really crazy.

-Is it because I gave Miette a gift back there?

Serena is speechless and doesn't know what to say next. But in fact, she got nothing to say. Serena just shifts the iris from the observing eye. Ash suddenly free her cheeks from his hands. A few seconds late, a not so small bag is in front of her.

-This is for you!

-What?!

It is a bag of marshmallows, bigger than Miette's. Not only that, but this bag is also decorated with a ribbon with dark chocolate color and overall, it is super cute. She still doesn't know what is going on.

-I cannot tell you to teach me making sweets to give it to you, so I ask Miette as a favor.

-But... Did you give one to her?

-Because Miette spends her time to teach me. Because of her, I can make a Valentine's Present for you by myself.

Ash's cheeks are hot and a little confused. Oh, so those are the sentences that she can't hear. If she had heard it, it wouldn't have been this way.

-Pfft! Haha!

-What are you laughing about?

-No! Nothing! Thank you so much, Ash!

Lightly received his present, she smiles brightly. It is uncomfortable with the outside, but really comfortable inside.

Secretly like the other, girls have wild thoughts or enraged even they don't have any permission. That's how!
