Hikawa Shrine...

It was afternoon at the Shrine and the Priestess in charge of the same was performing her routine meditation. Lately, that was the only way she find peace and made her stop thinking about happy and sad memories with a certain idol. It was the only way her mind was freed from her presence. As days passed, it was harder to stop thinking about her, about her smile, her touch, her kisses...

"Priestess?"

Rei came out of her trance...

"Yes, Mimi"

"You have a phone call"

Rei stood up and walked pass her, "Thank You, Mimi. You are dismissed"

The young miko bowed in respect and made her way down the steps and headed home. The priestess made her way towards her quarters and picked up the phone.

"Hello?"

"Rei?" she herd that sweet voice say "How are you?"

"I'm ok, I guess" her voice betraying her "Why are you calling?"

Only silence could be herd on the line "I wanted to know how are you doing, that's all"

"How do you think I'm doing?" Rei asked sarcastically "One moment you are here with me, the other you said we had to part ways because...because...you never said why!"

Minako could only be in silence, she knew what she did was wrong. "But you told me to leave, Rei"

"I asked you to leave because your career was more important than us" she said in a low voice "And...it sounds to me that you're already forgetting about me"

Minako felt nauseous "What do you mean by that?"

"It's all over the media, you're dating some guy. Don't know who he is and I really don't care. Do you love him?" Rei asked swallowing the lump that was already forming in her throat.

"Not really" Minako whispered 'I keep thinking about you' the idol thought.

"Well, I in the other hand, don't know where to start forgetting about you as each day I realize I love you more and more" a tear trailed down her cheek "And I'm paying for the mistakes I made in the past. Maybe I deserve this"

Minako started to sob silently as she just wanted to go to Rei and forget this whole thing happened, start over. The words Rei just said hurt her more than anything else in the world "Rei, I..."

"I can't talk anymore Minako, please. Just don't call me again" Rei said hanging up.

Minako looked at the phone blankly "I love you Rei"
