Kiss by Mistake
T.K went out his school at the end of the day. Lately, things didn't go well for him. He and Kari broke up and even they started fighting a lot, he felt lonely and missed her. At the entrance of the school he saw a blond girl, that girl was his cousin.
"Tomoko, what a surprise" T.K said and hugged her "What is bringing you here?"
"I just wanted to see you. You know I missed you so much" Tomoko said "So how is life?"
"Everything is just sucks" T.K said.
"You and Kari broke up?" Tomoko asked.
"So Matt already told you" T.K said.
"No, Matt didn't tell me a thing, I just know you" Tomoko said "Won't you invite your cousin for a milkshake?"
"Oh, sorry, let's go" T.K said and they went to a café, they sat at the table and both of them order a milkshake. T.K took out a package of cigarettes, lit one cigarette and put the rest of the pack on the table.
"I see you haven't quit" Tomoko said.
"How can I quit if I'm always stressed and depressed?" T.K asked.
"I just worry about you, smoking is bad for you" Tomoko said.
"You sound just like my mother" T.K said.
"Because we both care about you" Tomoko said "You know, Kari is nice but she is not the girl for you"
"Maybe you are right" T.K said and took a drag of his cigarette "It because unbearable for us to be together. She started finding faults in me and we fought unnecessary"
"Everything happens for good, I think she just doesn't deserve a guy like you" Tomoko said.
Yolei met her boyfriend, Ken after school.
"Hello, my love" Ken said and kissed her.
"Hello, Ken, how was your day?" Yolei asked.
"It was fine, but I missed you so much" Ken said.
"Me too" Yolei said, but she was unsure she really feels like that.
"Yolei, I thought a lot about this and I think we should move in together, what do you think?" Ken asked.
"I don't know, Ken. I really don't want any commitment between us" Yolei said.
"But Yolei, it's not like we are getting married" Ken said.
"I know, but I think this step is too big for now" Yolei said.
"I'll let you think about it and you know I won't force you to do something you don't want" Ken said and then approached to kiss her, but she moved away, not letting him kiss her.
"Ken, I'm sorry. I'm really not in the mood today" Yolei said and walked away.
Yolei didn't know what is happening to her. She knew Ken really loved her and she thought she loved him, too. However, everything became so usual, not like it was when she and Ken started dating, and then she counted the minutes until their meeting, now she searches for reasons not to go to meet him. Yolei wanted to talk to someone about that, but she knew that Cody who doesn't like Ken much probably would say "Dump him, you should've done this long time ago" and Kari would probably say "Come on! Don't you see how much he loves you? I don't think you'll find another guy like that. So stop with all your doubts and tell him that you agree to move in with him". She really didn't know who she can talk about it. She decided to go to the café to drink something and relax. She entered the café and saw there T.K sitting with a girl she didn't know. She came to their table.
"Hello, T.K" Yolei said.
"Hello, Yolei, good to see you" T.K said "This is Tomoko and Tomoko, this is Yolei, my friend"
"Good to meet you, Yolei" Tomoko said and shook Yolei's hand "Well, T.K, I need to go, I'll talk to you later"
"Bye, Tomoko" T.K said and Yolei sat at her chair. Yolei looked worried at the cigarettes package at the table and at the ashtray with three cigarette butts. T.K really smoked quite a lot like Kari used to tell her.
"I'm sorry" T.K said and took the package inside his pocket.
"It's okay" Yolei said "I see you are quick"
"What do you mean?" T.K asked.
"You already have another girlfriend and you know she seems nice" Yolei said and T.K's face fell down.
"She is my cousin" T.K said.
"Oh, I'm sorry. Actually when I think of it, she really looks a bit like you" Yolei said.
"It's okay, Yolei. Tomoko and I were very close since we were children. Actually everybody thought we are twins and she is like an older sister for me" T.K said.
"That's nice you have someone like that" Yolei said even she knew that T.K is very depressed, he probably feels better than her since he can speak to Tomoko about his pain. That time the waitress brought a juice for Yolei.
"So how are you doing, T.K? It's so hard for me to see you like that" Yolei said.
"I'm trying to be fine and not to think of Kari" T.K said, he wanted to reach out for a cigarette, but he thought he shouldn't smoke next to Yolei "I think I'm going to get over her, it became impossible for us to be together anyway" Then there was silence between them and then T.K spoke up again.
"Yolei, you look like something bothering you. Is something wrong?" T.K asked.
Yolei didn't know if she should tell T.K about it, she really trusted him, but she was unsure if he is that one person she should speak up to. She decided she would tell him everything.
"Ken suggested we move in together" Yolei said.
"But that's great, Yolei" T.K said.
"Well, I'm confused. I don't even know if Ken and I are meant to be together. I know Ken really loves me, but I'm very unsure of my feelings towards him" Yolei said "I used to think that I love him, but now I don't really know"
"Yolei, you shouldn't do anything that you don't want or you are not sure. I think you should wait until your feelings are clear to you. Then you would know if you should be with Ken or not" T.K said.
"Do you really think so? I shouldn't do anything for now?" Yolei asked.
"Yes, once your feelings would be clear to you, you shall know what to do" T.K said.
"Thank you, T.K. You don't know how much this means to me" Yolei said, she really felt better after speaking to T.K.
"You know I'm always here for you" T.K said.
"Yeah, if you have a problem you always can count on me, too" Yolei said.
"Thanks, Yolei" T.K said "Let's go home"
They walked home together as they lived at the same building. They arrived to Yolei's apartment.
"I guess that's it" T.K said.
"T.K, thanks for everything. You helped me a lot" Yolei said.
"Thanks you, too, Yolei. It was great to speak to you" T.K said.
"Good bye, T.K" Yolei said.
"Good bye, Yolei" T.K said.
Then they hugged. When they hugged their eyes met and then their faces got closer and then their lips met, too. Yolei realized what she is doing and stopped kissing T.K.
"T.K, this is wrong" Yolei said.
"Why, Yolei?" T.K asked.
"You are Kari's ex-boyfriend" Yolei said.
"That's right, Yolei. I'm Kari's ex-boyfriend. This means we are not together so I'm absolutely single" T.K said.
"You are also Cody's friend. Cody hates all the guys that like me" Yolei said.
"Do you think Cody is going to hate me? I think I can bear that" T.K said.
"You are also my friend. You are like a brother to me, I don't want to lose you" Yolei said.
"But you are not going to lose me. You know that first of all, I'm your friend" T.K said.
"T.K, I have a boyfriend and I can't believe I've just cheated on him" Yolei said.
"But you've said that you are unsure of your feelings towards him" T.K said.
"Now I'm even more confused, leave me alone, T.K" Yolei said and entered her apartment.
