I'm sorry, Yata-kun. This is Celty. Would you like me to forward this message to Kusanagi-san? If it is an emergency, I can tell him to contact you immediately. Or if there is anything I can do to help, please let me know.

Please, don't worry about it. Technology can be fickle at times. And yes, last I checked, I am a woman. I promise I will keep this between the two of us.
[ it takes a little bit for her to answer this because wow how... does she even... answer this??? but wow this is really cute and she sees yata as a little brother anyway so. here. goes nothing. ]
I can't say I've had much experience in this area, but I think it is safe to say that she is fond of your friend. Perhaps she did not expect him to give her a gift, which may have made her embarrassed and caused her to run? In this situation, I believe she may have been very pleasantly surprised, however. When she ran off, was she blushing? Did she seem upset at all?
I see. Yes, it is normal for friends to give gifts to each other. Even friends of opposite genders, obviously.
[ just. putting that distinction there. for his benefit. ]
I believe there is a possibility that she likes him in a romantic sense, yes. However, I'm not entirely certain since I do not know her. If your friend really wants to know, perhaps it is better for him to ask her directly? If he feels the same way. Opposing feelings and assumptions may cause complications in good friendships.
[ He finds himself focusing on the words "romantic" "ask her directly" and "feels the same way" and it's hard to think of a reply when that's all on his mind right now. No one's ever told him they've liked him that way before. He doesn't even want to talk to the girl in question now—he's scared, because what if Celty's wrong? What if Celty's right? But, in the end, there's friendship, and keeping that bond is more important to him than taking a chance, really?
Ah. If that's the case, I think your friend should take some time to think on how he feels about her, whether he likes her romantically or just as a friend. Of course, if your friend feels more comfortable to just remain friends with her, that's perfectly fine. But he may have to be prepared to tell her that if she wishes to pursue a more romantic relationship.
