"Six years," I whispered as I hopped off the train
car before it stopped at the Nerima station.
That's how long it 's been. Six long,
hard years, but the only good thing to come from
it was I now know who I loved. Loved more than anything
in the world.
Akane Tendo.
I wonder if her cooking has been declared a chemical
weapon yet? Then I chuckled. Even her cooking would be
better than some of the slop I've had to eat.
A quick sprint takes me away from the tracks before anyone
can notice how I left the train. It would definately be
a bad thing if I got thrown in jail on my first day
back. I smiled slightly as a vision of her filled my
mind.
My heart started to race and I decide that I have to
see her now. Hold her in my arms and tell her that I
love her before something else keeps us apart.
So I begin to hop the roofs. Some people actually see
me and I hear snippets of their reaction.
"Who is that?!?"
"Aw man, I wish I could do that!"
"That sure looked like Ranma Saotome but that's impossible. I
heard he's ..."
"I don't know who he is but he sure is cute!"
A part of me wants to shout out 'Sorry, I' m spoken for!' but
it dies when I see my destination. The front gate of the dojo.
I land on the last roof and almost start down when the gate
opens and..I see her.
Her hair is longer and she looks older but it's her. It's
amazing how even when she wears something as simple as
jeans and a T-shirt can make her look so good.
God, she's more beautiful than ever.
I watch her as she looked back to the house and shouted:
"You'd better hurry up! You're running late!"
"I know! I know!"
The male voice that called back took me by surprise. The man
that comes out a few seconds later I don't recognize at
all. Must be Kasumi's husband or something.
He began to run down the street at full speed.
"Hey idiot! Aren't you forgetting something?"
Her yell brings him to an instant stop then he turned around
and ran back to her.
"Sorry, " I heard him say, "Sigh, what would I ever do
without you?"
"What indeed?" Akane replied, cocking an eyebrow that
reminded me of Nabiki.
"Probably be a complete moron. Well, bye honey."
What did he call her?!??!
My jaw dropped as I watched them move closer then they
kissed....
and my world shattered.
Why didn't you wait?
