Enjoy and review!
"You've got to be kidding me," she muttered under her breath, sipping on the ruby liquid that was in the cup. She took a strand of her chocolate brown hair and pulled it away from her heart-shaped face. She shuffled in her mini red dress uncomfortably. It had been lent by her friend, Tsubaki, for the date and needless to say, she didn't really like it nor did she feel comfortable in it.
"I'm sorry?" asked the blonde man in confusion, sitting in front of her. He's quite pleasing to look at, she mused.
To say that she was surprised when he had asked her out was an understatement. She was going to decline politely but to her great dismay, he pestered her stubbornly until she accepted. She had forgotten to ask for roguishly handsome man's name and she only just asked for it. The answer surprised the hell out of her and she hated it.
Two words made connections in everything she thought to be bizarre. Two words brought her whole world crashing down. She doesn't think she'll ever feel the same. How could she not notice? The Yakuza, the Vongolo, the Flames. God, the Flames. How did she not notice? And she's a fucking Yakuza boss. How on earth could she not notice?! She had the tempting urge to bash her head against the table for her utter stupidity but rationally, decided to do it later. She'd rather not look like a crazy fool.
The pair were in a restaurant and she wasn't sure whether she should go ahead with the date or just leave. Should she decide on the latter, she's sure Tsubaki was going to kill her. Her head felt slightly dizzy and the feeling of nausea haunted her.
She pulled on a smile like always and beamed, "I've decided to become a nun."
Of course, she isn't actually going to be one, but she just really wants to get out and she's recently been fond of the phrase. She was sure that she was going to kill someone if she stays any longer there.
"What?" blurted out her date and she felt slightly sorry for him. Had he been a normal average (quite handsome, she added as a side-thought as she eyed his sharp jaw and dark green eyes) man, perhaps they would've had a normal evening.
Patting his head, she walked away and said, "You'll find someone better."
She leans against the wall and pulls out a cigarette. She searches her bag for a lighter until she feels her phone vibrating. Although it wasn't like the smartphones she was so fond of and so used to, it was alright, but she doesn't think she could stand the sight of a brick phone any longer. The 1990s did suck a lot. She flipped the phone open and she contemplated on whether she should answer Tsubaki. Pro- it's better to get it done with. Con- there's a chance that she'd probably go deaf.
Decline it was then. She'd rather have her ears intact.
When she heard someone call her name, she turned around and saw the very same man, whom she ditched. Admittedly, she feels guilt lingering back in her mind but it's the revelations that she's focused on. The annoyance of seeing him again catches onto her. She ignored the burning in her chest.
"What?" she snapped. Perhaps it would some good if she played offensive. The canon version of her was apparently a naïve young woman, a bit knocked in the head according to previous life's brother. She scowled as she thinks of the characteristics her character held. She's got none of it. Wait. They did have one thing in common. The obliviousness.
And she has absolutely no idea how everything's going to end up now. If there was one thing that good about this era, it was that she knew what was gonna happen. But now? Because of this one man, everything went up in ashes. She has no idea of the future at all and she hated it.
"I don't understand," he said, lips pursed, as he loosened his red tie.
"Of course, you wouldn't, Sawada Iemitsu."
So this is like a drabble series and I really really couldn't help but post it. I know really shouldn't do it, considering how I have other stories that are incomplete. But still.
Chapters will usually be short and feel free to criticise (as long as it's constructive)- I welcome it. Since chapters will be short, it will mean more updates I guess?
