The Complications
Chapter 01
"What took you so long, Mikan?" Hotaru asked, not noticing that I had to walk up five stair cases to get here, not to mention I had to carry her stuff! "How—did you get here―so fast?" I panted, trying to catch my breath. In response, she pointed her index finger at the elevator next to her.
She didn't even have to say it, I could already see it her dull amethyst eyes that she was calling me an idiot.
Though, I wouldn't blame her.
She took her suit cases from me and simply said, "Goodbye." before shutting the door on me. "Wait, I'll see you tomorrow at class, right?" I asked lamely. "I would like it if you would not socialize with me anymore." she replied, from behind the door.
My heart felt as if it was being plunged with knives, as her harsh words echoed in my head. Is this what a broken heart feels like? "Wh-what do you m-mean Hotaru?" I was finally able to ask in a pathetic whimper. "Don't take this personally Mikan, but since we're entering high school, I need to focus more on my studies." she explained, without the least bit of sincerity in her voice! As if our five years of precious friendship was absolutely nothing!
"I hope you understand." She told me. "I understand." I lied, I wanted to tell her the truth, but for some reason I couldn't say anything...I was completely silent. I sat there next to her door, for about an hour. Until I forced myself to get up when I started to feel hungry and for some reason I was craving for ice cream. Luckily, there was a little convenient store, where I bought rocky road.
I pushed the elevator button and inside there was a creepy dude passed out. Though I was too lazy to wait for the next elevator so I was like, "What the hell?" and I walked inside. I mean what could get worse?
And that's when the elevator stopped. Though I just sat down a ways from the raven haired guy, waiting patiently for someone to fix the elevator. I looked at the guy and wondered what he looked like, so I reached for the manga covering his face, but before I could he woke up and he twisted my wrist, which made me wince, in pain.
"Trying to do something pervy to me while I was sleeping?" he asked as he curled his lips to form a smirk, while releasing his painful grip. My blood started to boil, "I HAVE HAD A PRETTY CRAPPY DAY AND I DON'T NEED SOME CREEPY ASSHOLE ACCUSING ME OF BEING A PERVERT!" I exploded and all of a sudden I gushed into tears. He just blinked and looked at me like I was insane.
And for some reason, I just poured out all my problems to him. He didn't even once interrupt me, he just listened to what I had to say, though he could of been ignoring me the whole time, but I didn't really care. It felt good letting it all out to someone, even though it was a complete stranger who I found passed out on the elevator floor.
When I was finished he handed me his handkerchief, "Women make a big deal out of nothing." he stated "Everyone has problems. Just eat some damn ice cream and move on." I blew my nose into it and handed it back to him "Keep it." he replied as he looked disgustingly at the snotty handkerchief.
Suddenly the elevator door opened and my face brightened. Before leaving I smiled at him "Here." I said as I handed him the rocky road ice cream and said "I don't need it anymore."
