It's an early morning, just like the other day. Shizuru woke up lazily, heard a husky yell from the opening window.
"Oi, Shizuru, where's Duran?"
Oh, something was moving inside her blanket, something big indeed. In matter of seconds, a big bad dog the other girl's yelling about slipped out from her blanket to the window and jumped to her neighbor's roof and then into the other window that stood exactly as high as her window.
Shizuru rose from her bed, standing by her window.
"Next time close your window while you're sleeping, Shizzy-chan," the husky voice said in a lazy tone.
Shizuru hated that nickname. A nickname given by her eternal enemy, Kuga Natsuki, that neighbor.
"Next time wear something sexy so duran won't come here anymore, Kiki-chan."
"Don't call me Kiki, womanizer!"
"Ara," just when shizuru wanted to shout back, her phone's ringing.
"Tomoe-han?"
"Hi, honey, I'm waiting outside here."
"I'll be down in 15 minutes."
"Roger!"
Shizuru glanced at the other window where Natsuki's watching her. Shizuru smiled at her neighbor. Natsuki's face hardened, she slammed her window with a bang. Just when she tried to stand up straight, didn't aware that her pajama's stick on the closed window. In an angry state, the power she used to stand up straight was so strong that her button couldn't bear the stretch she made and the window opened again. Her pajama opened wide revealing her naked breast.
"Flat board!" Shizuru laughed crazily. Natsuki's face flushed in red.
-xoxo-
15 minutes later.
A red Ferrari waited in front of Shizuru's home. Shizuru pecked Tomoe's cheek then sat down beside her. She saw Natsuki's walking, and then saw a pond of rain water from last night on the street.
"Tomoe-han, I'm in hurry," she said with a smiling face.
"Roger!" Tomoe said excitedly.
The red Ferrari blasted through the street, gained more and more speed then went past Natsuki with a huge splash of water, leaving a wet Natsuki behind.
"Damn!" Natsuki groaned after her shock. She walked to the school with the water dripping from her clothes and hair.
-xoxo-
Natsuki sat in front of the president of Fuuka student council, Fujino Shizuru. Shizuru's smile widened.
"Ara, ara, Kiki-chan, what brings you here?"
"Don't call me Kiki!" Natsuki said with Pamela Anderson's Barb Wire tone.
"Natsuki's no fun. How about Kitty? That's so I can say 'hello Kitty' every morning to you."
"Shut up, womanizer!"
"Fujino! Why are you always here when this Kruga Natsuki misbehave? "
"We're friend since childhood. That makes her special," Shizuru smiled like Monalisa.
"Since childhood? I've never known that," Haruka commented.
"Me either," Natsuki said in a low voice.
"Did you say something?" Haruka asked Natsuki.
"Nope."
"Wearing non uniform clothes in the school day, are you asking for an attention, Kuga-san?" Haruka said it to Natsuki.
"Haruka-chan, it's okay, she got the attention from me," Shizuru smile widely. Gotcha.
"You said it many times before, but she keeps on coming back here every...Monday."
"I don't like Monday, " Natsuki sighed.
"Contrary from it, Kiki-chan, I DO love Monday."
-xoxo-
A lot of ah-uh sound could be heard by Natsuki in her room.
"Aren't they too loud? Oh, I see, Fujino's home is empty..." Natsuki talked to her Duran. The two fellow students in the Shizuru's room were making out soundly, that's where the noises came from.
"Damn!" Natsuki sighed. She couldn't concentrate. She was home alone, too. She wish she could study during her pop-mom's weekend date. She had a study tour to the Crystal Place Museum the next Sunday, so her time of study would be shortened. She got a test in two weeks.
She walked down stair, to her home's front door. She saw the red Ferrari.
Natsuki glanced at a bag full of rotten eggs. Her mother always bought eggs but they were left uncooked so often because she was too busy to cook.
An idea stroked her mind. She smirked evilly.
She then threw the eggs to that red Ferrari one by one.
-xoxo-
Sunday.
Natsuki and her classmates went to the museum. A guide called Fumi leading their way.
Shizuru and her group met Natsuki in the museum, in front of Mashiro Hime statue.
"Kiki-chan, didn't I tell you to apologize to Tomoe-han after what you did last week?"
"Don't call me Kiki, womanizer!"
"Ara, ara, should I say it to Tomoe-han so you can face her divine punishment?"
Natsuki's face twitched, she heard a lot about the sado-Tomoe-ism.
"How can I forgive what you both did to me that Monday?"
"What did we do, Kiki-chan?"
"You're acting innocent."
"But I am innocent."
"Liar!"
"Excuse me?"
"You lied openly, acting like an innocent girl. What kind of life do you live?"
"Are you concern about it?"
"Nope. At all. I don't wanna live a life like yours."
"Neither do I, with your boring life."
"From now onward, I don't wanna know anything about you."
"Agreed."
Suddenly the Mashiro Hime statue glowed brightly.
-xoxo-
Shizuru woke up like the usual morning before. She saw her room weirdly. Wait a minute, it's not her room!
Shizuru walked down stair awkwardly. She found Mr. and Mrs. smith, no, Mr. and Mrs. Kuga in the dining room.
"Natsuki, honey, you wake up late. How's the study tour yesterday?"
Natsuki? Wait, I'm Shizuru. Study tour yesterday? But I'm still in the museum!
Shizuru sat quietly on the chair, saw her self reflection on the plate.
"My gosh, it's Natsuki's face there," Shizuru shocked. Suddenly there was a yell from the neighbor's home.
"Isn't it Fujino kid's voice? So uncommon of her, yelling in the morning. Usually you're the one who did that, honey," Mrs. Kuga Saeko said that after chewing her food.
Shizuru rose and ran upstair.
"Honey, I told you 'no running in the house'," she could hear Mrs. Kuga voice but ignored her. She opened the window of Natsuki's room just in time when the other window opened.
"My God!" they screamed in unison.
Duran looked at Natsuki in Shizuru's body and Shizuru in Natsuki's body with a puzzled look.
Natsuki, in Shizuru's body, looked back at Duran. "Hey, boy, it's me. You recognize me, don't you?" duran barked softly. " Good boy, good boy."
"Hey, Kiki-chan, don't let Duran stretch my night gown!"
"Your night gown? What?! How can I wear this...what is this...you called it a night gown? This is indecent!"
"Your pajama's so uncomfortable."
"Shut up! That's my favorite one."
"Thank God you're not wearing my night gown while you're in your own body. It'll stretch a lot."
"What? Do you think I am that fat?" Natsuki felt dizzy after shouting back.
"Thanks to the mayo."
"No wonder you always stay calm and looked so fine. In fact, you're not calm nor fine, you're weak coz you're suffering from anemia. Thanks to the tea."
"Excuse me?"
Suddenly Shizuru's phone was ringing.
"Don't you ever dare to pic... "
"Hello?"
"Hi, honey, I'm waiting outside here."
"Who's this?"
"Roger!" Tomoe hanged up the phone.
"Roger? Who's Roger, Shizzy?"
"Tomoe-han."
"I don't know that her name is Roger Tomoe."
"Because it's not her name."
"I see. Oh, you better hurry up, Shizzy. Time's ticking. You'll be late if you don't hurry. See you in the student council, it's Monday by the way ", Natsuki said with a wink.
-xoxo-
"It's Kruga Natsuki, again," Haruka said.
"True. She's late," Natsuki in Shizuru's body nodding her head. Shizuru in Natsuki's body glared at Natsuki.
"This time, I will let you decide what kind of punishment she deserves, Haruka-chan," Natsuki said while leaving. "Make sure that she will not want to return here anymore."
-xoxo-
Tuesday.
It's Kuga Natsuki again in the student council. It's not her usual day here.
"Fujino! It's your childhood friend again! What went through her mind? Wasn't she shame using a very short skirt in the school?"
Natsuki's -in Shizuru's body- eyes widened. A very short skirt? Damn that anemic girl. She went face to face with her body. She almost fainted when she found out what made Haruka yelled to her. Shizuru's using a very short school uniform's skirt, and stilettos, revealing her beautiful legs.
"What the hell?"
"Fujino? You're... cursing?" Haruka jerked her head at Natsuki.
Natsuki didn't give Haruka a damn. She reached for Shizuru's hand and led her to an empty classroom so they both could talk privately.
"What the hell are you doing?"
"I'm doing fine, Kiki-chan."
"Not how, but what! This is..." Natsuki glared at the short skirt.
"This? Oh, this skirt. It is a revenge, Natsuki. You broke up with Tomoe-han."
"She has no worth. She's through with you just because I didn't give her a peck when she picked me up yesterday. That's a simple reason, and she wanted to break up? God, what kind of relationship you had with her?"
"Ara, you have no right to judge us, Kiki-chan."
"How can you stand with her everyday? Do you happy with that kind of relationship? She's only into your body not who you really are. It's like a fake relationship, Shizzy."
"It didn't concern you before."
"Nope. But I'm in your body right now. I don't know for how long, but I don't wanna get involve with a person like that. What if she wanted to make out with you, in this case with me, I had no interest with her at all. She didn't even realize that you are not you are right now."
"Kiki-chan, you're in my body just one day and you're judging me like you knew me."
"I knew you, Shizzy. You're in the spotlight like everyday."
"You think you knew me."
Natsuki couldn't argue.
"Tomoe-han is a good pet."
"A pet? Duran is a pet! Tomoe is..."
"Is...?"
"Is...A Roger?"
Shizuru laughed softly.
"I hear you slept all the meeting long."
"I hate meetings."
"You have to do it. It's a part of my life, Kiki-chan. I need it for college."
"Damn. Think I'm gonna go home after this and sleep like a log."
"Then I'll go to Takeda to have a kiki with this virgin body."
"What? Over my dead body!"
"Bear with the meeting, Kiki-chan."
"Damn!"
-xoxo-
A month later.
"Shizzy, I think I can't be the chairman of the festival."
"Ara, ara, Kiki-chan. I helped you this far, you can't just give up. You are me, right now."
"But I don't know how to handle it. You seem alright handling my problems."
"Then I shall meet this Takeda..."
"Oh, crap."
"Yes, crap," Shizuru said in her mind. She couldn't stand either even just to imagined herself making out with Takeda. To gave Natsuki's virginity to that jerk.
This week was the peak of a festival called the Fuuka Carnival. It was an annual festival. The preparation drew Natsuki and Shizuru close to each other, something that their neighborhood-ness couldn't do. This whole month made Shizuru see Natsuki more than meet the eyes, and vice versa. Shizuru learned that Natsuki's into science so much just like her mother and Natsuki learned how hard Shizuru's life was, the aura of competency around her and how she managed to handle her fans and how hard she tried to find someone who see her as she was. There was something, one particular feeling that changed from time to time, they hid it from each other.
"Shizzy, do you have any idea why am I becoming you?"
Shizuru shook her head no.
-xoxo-
Monday.
"So, you don't have a date, Shizuru-oneesama?"
Natsuki in Shizuru's body looked at the girl who's talking to her. Tomoe.
"What do you want?"
"Huh! I just want you to know that Miya's better."
"So you can make a sado-masochist couple, right?"
Tomoe's eyes widened.
"You can play the dominant one with Miya, right Tomoe-han?" A husky voice behind Tomoe asked. Tomoe looked at Shizuru in Natsuki's body.
"Kuga Natsuki? What the hell..."
"I finally know who you really are, Tomoe-han," Shizuru said in a low tone.
"What are you talking about, Kuga?"
"Do you want me to spread your secret? Your 'ba-bu' secret?"
Tomoe's face paled.
"Shizuru-oneesama, did you tell her...?" Tomoe turned her head.
"Yes, why not?" Natsuki in Shizuru body said.
Tomoe looked at her in disbelief. "Shizuru...oneesama?" Then she ran crying.
-xoxo-
"Tomorrow is the closing day of the festival."
"Yes. And you will receive an award for your hard work as the chairman, Kiki-chan."
"I don't deserve it. You do."
"Ara, Kiki-chan, there were times where I couldn't help you but you could handle it well. You deserve it."
"It's complicated."
"Excuse me?"
"Your life. Mine's simple as 123."
Shizuru chuckled.
"You had an ordinary high schooler life and I enjoyed it, indeed, but every life is extraordinary, Natsuki. Though the science and track and field part stressed me out a little bit."
"I want to become a scientist, just like mother. But I love to run, too."
"Said, Natsuki, what if we can never back to our bodies anymore? What if we stay forever this way?"
Natsuki stayed still and silent.
-xoxo-
Monday afternoon.
Natsuki -in shizuru's body- walked along the school pathway alone. The dusk fell on the Fuuka.
"Shizuru-oneesama."
She knew that voice.
"How dare you tell her about my secrets?"
Natsuki faced Tomoe.
"You said she was just a funny toy on Monday morning. You said you hated her Duran, it was annoying just like Kuga Natsuki was. You said she wasted her time being an old-cold-hearted virgin that buried herself under a pile of textbooks."
"Did she say something like that? Damn," she said to herself, she ran to her own home, compeletely ignored Tomoe's presence.
Her home was empty like usual, she found Fujino Shizuru in her room.
"So, I was just a funny toy on Monday morning?"
Shizuru face hardened.
"You hated Duran and me? An old-cold-hearted virgin buried herself under a pile of textbooks?"
"Kiki-chan, that's..."
"Don't Kiki me!"
Shizuru stood in silence.
"They were true. Until I got to know you."
"You're judging me all this time."
"Yes. That's the difference between you and me. You tell the truth about what's on your mind while I keep it just in my mind. We're both judging each other."
"Not just keep it in your mind," Natsuki pouted. "I'm not an old-cold-hearted virgin. I'm just waiting for the right person."
Shizuru smiled. "I must confess that I said many bad things about you. But what I feel now is, it's an honor to know the real you, Kuga Natsuki."
"Yeah, me too."
There was a glow surrounded them just like in the museum.
-xoxo-
Shizuru woke up just like the other morning. Just like the other morning more than a month ago. She felt weird but it's her own room.
She jumped out her bed, and opened her window.
"Kiki-chan, we're back!", Shizuru yelled to the other window. She found Duran by her feet. She kissed him then hugged him close.
"Duran, I love you."
"Shizzy, we're back. God, finally!" Natsuki jumped to the tree then to Shizuru's window, they both hugged each other.
"Shizzy, hurry, it's the day you receive the award."
-xoxo-
In the school.
The jaded moment of speeches had been passed. Now's the time for Shizuru to receive her prize. She's standing on the stage.
"I'd like to dedicate this award for Kuga Natsuki. And thank you for all the staff's hard work," instead of a long, polite speech, Shizuru delivered a short speech.
She couldn't find Natsuki after the closing ceremony of the festival. She then walked along the school pathway that lead her to the school garden, there she found her Natsuki.
"Nana-chan."
"Shizzy? Why are you doing here? Who is Nana-chan?"
"It's you. It's my new nickname for you, I thought you hated Kiki," Shizuru smiled. "I was looking for you."
Natsuki smiled with a mild enthusiasm.
"This is for you," Shizuru handed her award.
"Keep it for me," Natsuki said in a low tone. "We're back, Shizuru. You can go back to your group."
"A month ago I didn't think we'll understand each other, but you became the person I've been dying to look for. I told you before, it's an honor to know you. I don't wanna act like we're strangers. I want Duran to sleep with me every night, I want to hear you shout every morning calling Duran."
"How about me sleeping with you every night?" Natsuki said with a wink. A face Shizuru made as a response was priceless.
