"Wherever you will go"
CHAPTER 1
THE NEWS
***"Kaede, you should be early tomorrow. Just forget about basketball just for a minute. It's really urgent dear. There will be visitors coming here. I've bought you clothes to wear. It will fit you so much darling!" Mrs. Rukawa said to Kaede who was waiting for his mum to finish. "What for?" he asked coldly. "I won't tell you anything until tomorrow! Just be early Rukawa-kun." Her mother said with a grin. ***
He thought as he walks towards the house. Rukawa's hands on his pocket walking coolly in the street until he arrived at their front porch. Kaede opened the door slowly and poked his head. He saw no one so he entered and proceeded to the stairs to his room but suddenly his mum called him down.
"Kaede, your clothes are ready in your room. You're a good looking man and you should be good in your dress dear!" Mrs. Rukawa said urgently.
Then Kaede noticed something in his surroundings. The place was so clean and he could see his reflection in the floor. Everything seemed so clean and well arranged. And the food, it smelled so damn good! That makes him want to go in the kitchen and eat. He also noticed that every time he looks at his dad he always gave him a grin. ***Is there something wrong in this house???????*** He thought asking himself. Then for a while he went up stairs and took a shower and got dressed.
***What's with this people here.????*** He thought again as he stepped slowly down onto the stairs. Kaede could still smell the aroma of the food. His stomach was aching to death.
"Kaede, come and sit here." Said a large voice.
He glanced at him and saw his father in one of the sofa then he sat down. Mrs. Rukawa looks much alike like his son, Kaede except that Mr. Rukawa had eyeglasses. Then a figure of a woman appeared in the room. It was her mother. She was very beautiful. Kaede got his mother's eyes. His mother had hazel eyes and pale skin like him.
"How do I look?" she asked, her eye twinkling like a star.
"You look very beautiful with your dress honey!" Mr. Rukawa said sweetly as he looked at his wife.
"Yeah..." said Kaede coldly not looking at his mum.
Then Mrs. Rukawa sat on the couch beside Kaede and said, "Everything is ready!!! I'm so excited!!!!!!!!!"
***What is she excited about??? BAKAS!!!*** Kaede thought hoarsely.
He got the pillow beside him and cuddled it and fell asleep. Not knowing that he was the topic of his parents.
"Darling, you know what... Kaede's growing handsome. Like you. I can't imagine his reaction if he meets his fiancée." his mum said.
"I know that Otaka. Now that he had grown matured he will meet his future wife. They really look good as a couple!" Mr. Rukawa said while holding Otaka's hands and kissing it.
They talked and talked to each other about their son and the girl that he was about to marry. Until they realized that their visitors had not yet arrived. They both looked at each other confused. ***They were late!! What happened to them?!?!?!?!?!? Words running through their minds.
Then the phone rang. RING! RING! RING! RING! Mrs. Rukawa got to her feet and picked it directly and said, "Hello, Rukawa's Residence! Kunbanwa!" The voice in the phone answered.
"Oh. Hello! This is Mrs. Yoy. Is this Otaka?"
"Well, yes! Ohhhhh! Kauro!!! Why didn't you come?!?!?! What happened?!?! Is there anything wrong?!?!?!" asked Otaka in a panicked way.
"Calm down Otaka! We are very sorry for the inconvenience! We are here in the hospital right now. Jaede got a heart attack when we told her that she is going to be married." Kauro said with sympathy.
They talked and talked and she hangs it up. He went to Kaede and woke him.
"Huh.!!! Whadaaappeennn..." he mattered like a whisper.
Kaede saw his father and mother faces like hell. Their faces looked like so worried that something has happened. Inspite of all he was still sleepy.
"Mum. whaHAAAPPEeen.?" Kaede said between yawns.
Mrs. Rukawa slapped his face and said, "Come on Kaede wake up!!! You need to go to the hospital right now!!"
His mother slipped a note in his chest pocket.
"But-"
Before he could protest he was already dragged by his parents outside the house. They know that they can't easily make their son agree with it.
***What's wrong with them?!?!*** He thought. He checked for his chest pocket to see what his mother slipped into it. Then he started to walk not knowing what hospital he is going to go. ***They said. a hospital.a hospital.? But why? *** Thoughts were running through his mind.
And then he saw a small paper from his chest pocket. Rukawa saw handwriting. He recognized it because it's his mum. Rukawa saw "Gensing Hospital". ***May be this is it***.
Then he stopped he stopped in the garage and glance at his bike. May be he should ride the bike or not but he decided to walk because he realized that the paper was letter. He just has to walk here to the hospital so he could have time to read the letter. So he started to walk again and read it. No problem because the hospital was just a block away from his house. By the time he arrives there the letter is finish.
Dear Son Kaede, My dearest son has grown up now. Like a little rose that had already bloomed. I and your father had decided to let you be with your own.
"Huh. what do they mean about this.??" ***Mother has a neat writing, but. about the letter. This is so confusing.*** He could already see the hospitals figure. So he ran fast as he could to reach it. And then he stopped and continued to read the letter. ***Where was I?***
To be with your family. To have your own.
***HUH?!?!?!?!?!?! MY FAMILYYY????? TO HAVE ONE?!?!?!?!?!?! Are they out of their minds!!!!!!!!!!*** He thought as he screamed his heart out.
Rukawa could no longer afford to read the letter because he already knows where it was going. They mean of getting him married and may be that's why their home was so clean, well arrange the food and the visitors. Kaede gathered all his strength to continue to read the letter.
I know it is very hard for you to accept it but you need to because our business had been bankrupt and we need money to regain it. Your grandfather had a legal testament stating all his wealth and mine that I didn't have will be yours if you are going to marry before your 17th birthday. That is the reason Kaede. I'm really sorry darling! I know this is such a big problem to you but I hope you can understand. You're our only hope darling. The girl you are about to marry is Ms. Jaede Yoy the daughter of Mr. Hirohiko Yoy and Mrs. Kauroyoshi Yoy. They came from a very wealthy family son. Jaede is a very simple girl. I know you'll like her. We agreed in it already. And you can't say "NO" to this matter because of what I've told you, you're our only hope. Thank you son!
Love you always, Mum and Dad
