Chapter 1: How to pick out a present
"Takuto, look! A new Amusement park! The grand opening is at Christmas. "Mitsuki tugged Takuto's sleeve and looked at the flier once more. Mitsuki just came back from work and Takuto was taking her home. She remembered just now that it was almost Christmas. This is her second time spending the Christmas with Takuto.
Takuto took the flier from Mitsuki and read it. "Hey, it seems that the tickets are expensive. I guess it's because it's just new."
Mitsuki sighed and threw the flier away. She walked down the street with a disappointed look. She really wanted to go to the Amusement park since amusement parks reminded her of Eichi when they went together.
Without looking where she was going, she wandered off to the streets while a car was running towards her. Takuto saw and pushed her away from the car. He then ran as fast as he could so the car wouldn't hit him. Luckily, he survived but his leg was broken. He crawled to Mitsuki and held her in his arms.
"YOU IDIOT! You could've died back there." He looked at her and she looked awful. Judging from the way her eyes looked, she was thinking of Eichi again. His free hand punched the ground and he knew that she still loved Eichi. Right now, the only thing he could do to cheer her up was hug her as tight as he could. "Don't do that again, Mitsuki. Please. You're going to make me worry to death."
Mitsuki cried. "I-I'm sorry, Takuto! You could've died saving me and it was all my fault! I'm sorry!" Mitsuki cried at the time that the ambulance delivered us home.
The doctor said that my foot needed to rest in two weeks and it will be healed. "Damn! Human bodies are so weak and what a fool I am… I made Mitsuki cry." Takuto looked over to Mitsuki who was still crying.
When they got home, Mitsuki went in her room and cried herself to sleep. Takuto peeked in and was relieved she was sleeping. He then found the perfect opportunity to think of her Christmas present. He knew that his leg was broken but the day before Christmas was the time when his leg would be healed. He sighed in relief left her room.
While he was in his bed, he thought about Mitsuki. He tried to remember all the thinks she loved and somehow, he thought about this morning. He knew what she wanted but it would take a lot of money. He then looked at his wallet and saw nothing.
"This means… that I have to look for work." These words made Takuto shiver. He forgot what it's like to work. He knew that he used to work for Route L. but he was doing something he had loved. He curled up on his bed and tried to think of a part time job that would be perfect for him.
Suddenly, an idea popped in his head. The most brilliant idea he's ever thought of. "That's it!" He grinned, rested his feet ona comfortable place,and fell asleep.
