"I try," he answers. "To listen and to avoid disappointing a friend." And no sooner does he say that does he strike. It's close, but not close enough.

It normally would have been easily dodged by Ryuha; in fact, she was ready to evade the strike. Until she registered what Kobushi had said. The word he had used. Friend.
The tap connects, the Mirumoto girl being caught up in the distraction of her thoughts. That much would be obvious to the Daidoji.
"....."
"....."
She places her hand where Kobsuhi had connected.

"Hey, senpai. You okay? You seemed distracted there."

"I'm fine, really," she blusters dismissively, blushing heavily. Ryuha had tried to avoid that word. The vulnerability of it, the pain it could lead to. She acted aloof with everyone else, but Kobushi was a nice enough guy to look past the facade so far.
She was excited and afraid all at once. Like the climb that lead to the top of a roller coaster. "Let's just keep going, yeah? You wanna try jiujutsu now?"

Rodrigo clapped as the other two finished their bout.
"Bravo, you two! Good bout."
Then he noticed they were having a moment and blinked.
"Oh, uh, sorry, I interrupted."

"Well, if you're sure."
And then Rodrigo speaks up.
"Huh? What moment?"
Poor, oblivious Daidoji Kobushi.

Rodrigo looked from Kobushi to Ryuha, then back to Kobushi, his expression perplexed.
"...Daidoji-san, pardon my rudeness, but how blind must you be to not see when a girl likes you?"

"What? That's…we only just met. We're friends. Just that."
He turns to Ryuha, checking if she's alright. And not buying into what the gaijin is saying.

For a moment Ryuha was silent. Silent, and afraid.
"What? No, that's silly! Completely silly, Rodurigo-san!" Ryuha continues to bluster, waving her bokken in his direction. "Daidoji-san has the right of it, naturally! Ah... friends. That's all!"

Rodrigo shrugged nonchalantly and grinned.
"Very well then, apparently I was mistaken. My apologies."
