ONE
Each individual have their own perception and definition for a perfect life. For Asako, perfect life is what shes living in now. A perfect and lovely husband, an interesting job, a comfortable workplace, nice friends, and a cute and bullyable best friend, Iku.
"Shes lovely inst she?"
Asako look at the picture Akane's sent to Iku. It was Dojou family picture took like 20 years ago. Akane look very pretty with her red mini dress while Dojou hug her from behind, using a short jean and normal green clothes. Theyre standing between their parent, infront of a christmas tree.
Iku didnt response and so Asako look at her whos frozen while reading the letter from Akane.
"Whats written there?" she jump to Iku's bed then snatch the letter from her. "Let me see it!"
"Wha?! Wait! Dont!"
Iku nee! How are you? My brother really mad at me when he finds out I give a condom to you :P. Hes realy entertaining just like you. Anyway, congratulations for your engagement! I didnt expect him to propose to you hat fast! Hope you wont be that distance and nervous with my brother again and will be married to him soon? Did u use that condom? my family and me are fine right now and my work started already. If you come to Tokyo, dont forget to visit us. Love and miss you lot nee.
Love, Akane
P.S. you can always share to me if you have problem with my brother
Asako mouth opened in shock.
"Give it back to me!"
Iku snatch it back immediately while her face still as red as the boiled lobster.
"Oh God. I never expect her to be that scary." She blink in disbelieved. Iku didnt say a thing. She fol the letter. "Anyway, do you use it?" Asako crawl, get her face closer to Iku's face.
"Wha, what do you mean?"
She stuttered.
"Cmon dummy. You know what I mean."
She lay her body while Iku stare at her.
"No. I dont even ever saw that thing."
Asako jumped.
"What?!" Asako get her face nearer to Iku's face again. "Wait, seriously?!" Iku avoid her eyes. "Hey, look at me!" she hold Iku's face to face her but Iku close shut her eyes thightly. "Are you serious?! So you always do it without using protection?! So youve been thinking of having kids without telling me?!"
"What?!" Iku's eyes open widely. "No!"
Asako let go of her head and stood up from Iku's bed.
"I didnt know you will hide such important thing from me."
She sigh while Iku stood up too.
"No!" she paused awhile before saying the embarassing words that shocked Asako. "I never do it!"
Asako turn her head in shock and find Iku's red face. After a minute after a silence between them, for the very first time the dorm heard Asako's loud shout instead of Iku's.
