Aoko was really exited. She already could see that smile on his face, that she loved so much. Finally Kaito started his show and now eceryone was really excited.
“Go, Kaito!!”
Aoko shouted to him with a bright smile on her face, while waving to him.
A small wave of the hand and some cards appeared in Kaito’s hand. He showed them to the audience, revealing that all but one had a red rose on the faces, the lone one instead having a white rose.
“Now, you’ve all already seen one single-person performance today, so I hope you don’t mind if I choose an assistant for a bit of a change.”
He grinned and waved the cards a bit,
“And while I could just have everyone draw one of these, that wouldn’t be very magical, now would it? Instead…”
Kaito quickly hid the cards and crossed his arms. When he opened them, doves flew out, each carrying a rose.
“They will choose you! Whoever gets the white rose may join me in the show. Of course, if they’d rather not, that’s fine as well.”
The doves circled around the room a few times before finally landing in front of the women. When they had all delivered their roses, the birds returned to Kaito, lighting upon his arms and shoulders. The magician glanced around the room, laughing when he saw who had the white flower.
He walked up to said person, taking care not to jostle the birds too much, and extended a hand.
“Seems you’ve been chosen. So… do you mind taking a part in the show, Aoko?”
