She's sitting at the bar having a drink to calm down a little, she just had a nasty fight with her girlfriend so she decided to go out to cool down. she wipe her eyes and sniffed. she sense a man sit near her,
" bad night? gorgeous babe? " asked the man sitting to her right, she look to her right and look at the man. he has blonde hair, violet eyes and a neat trimmed bear. she chug her beer before replying.
" a very bad night. i just had a fight with my girlfriend " she answered she didn't care if she's telling her problem to a stranger, she's a bit drunk. the man smirk
" oh.. why? by the way I'm Kenji " Kenji inched closer to her but she didn't notice, she just told him what happened
" well, it was mostly my fault, you see she's not the type to express what she's really feeling in public. I wanted to know if i can get her to get jealous and express it, i'm a possessive woman when it comes to her and i always get jealous when i saw her getting cozy with someone outside our friends circle. so I tried to get her jealous by flirting with some girl in front of her. that's where it started our fight. first its a small fight but it turn big when I lost my cool. "
Kenji pretended to listen, he took a sip to his whiskey, he turn his body facing her, he really don't care about her problem, he just want to have a touch this gorgeous lady. he lean closer wanting to score this lady.
she turn her head to look to kenji, she was startled when she saw how close their faces is. she open her mouth while backing away to say something when he suddenly thrust his face, kissing her roughly, he grab a hold on her back head to prevent her from breaking. because she's drunk she's can't think clearly how to escape. she put her left hand on his side and dig her nails hard. kenji wince in pain then let go, he back away then notice someone and left since he got what he wanted.
she was about to yell at him when she saw her girlfriend looking at her with a hurt expression. she stand to follow her girlfriend trying to catch on her who walk quickly to the exit.
" Natsuki, it's not what you think! " She grab her arm and pull her to the sidewalk away from prying eyes.
Natsuki turn around, her face is flush , tears streaming down her face. she hiccuped as she yanked her arm free from her grasp.
" I was worried when you didn't answer my call, you're gone for almost six hours, thinking that you might got in trouble so I went to the bar you always went to, to pick you up , but I found you kissing someone! I worry over nothing.! I'm tired of always trying to understand your flirty nature, I know its the way you are, but do you really need to always flirt with some girls like i'm not there.? Shizuru. "
Shizuru tried to calm down, it didn't help that she's drunk and couldn't think clearly. her anger earlier rise again.
" as if you didn't flirt in front of me! you're always with Kazuya when I'm not with you, getting all comfortable. and even if we're together he's always there draping his arm around your shoulder casually, as if you're with him instead of me. ! " Shizuru said while glaring at Natsuki who sighed tiredly while wiping her tears.
" him again? we talk this out already, didn't I say that he's my childhood friend and we're that comfortable with each other before we begin dating. I only saw him as a brother. but you.. " Natsuki point Shizuru with a raised eyebrow " you don't even know the girls name but you act around them as if you know them well. I endure all the caressing on the cheek and slyly groping you them but to kiss? its not only a girl bu a GUY? " Natsuki shake her head " I think we are better of apart. let's stop this game "
Shizuru look at Natsuki in disbelief , she grad Natsuki's hand roughly. Her crimson eyes blazing.
" you think this is a game to me ?! maybe you're taking this fight a chance to break away.. " stop., Please forgive me Natsuki I couldn't control myself. don't believe what I'm saying right now.. Shizuru beg inside trying to regain control of herself. " so you can rid of me and be with him and become his BITCH! "
her head snap to the side, a stinging sensation on her left cheek where Natsuki just slapped her. she was breathing heavily , she slowly look at Natsuki , the expression Natsuki's sporting torn her heart to peaces.
" I.. I'm sorry " Shizuru said she lift her right hand to touch Natsuki's crying face but Natsuki turn around and run to her bike , she strandle it , she didn't bother to put her helmet,
" we're done " said Natsuki without looking at Shizuru before reviving her engine and sped away.
Shizuru could only watch as the light of the bike fade away. She drop to the ground and broke down..
Sunlight touch her face, she turn on her side trying to avoid the light. she groan when her alarm clock ring indicating her time to get up and get ready for work. she sat up and rubbed her sleepy eyes, she get up as she yawn and make her way to her bathroom to start her morning routine. after putting her work clothes on she went to her kitchen to make breakfast. she quickly drink her tea and eat her toast, she have so many paper work waiting on her desk for sure since she take a day off yesterday.
She now own the Fujino corp. after her father died last year because of illness she work hard to make sure the Fujino corp. stay high in the industry. she won't waste her father's hard work. her father is such a good man, he didn't make marriage arrangement like other rich man just to expand their company. he accepted her being lesbian and he love his Family more than his Company.
she grab her keys and purse and walk to her Boxster S Dark Blue Metallic , she get in and revive the machine and sped up to the Fujino corp. she park her car to her spot and walk in to the building.
Her secretary with teal hair and grey eye greeted her " Good morning Shizuru-san "
Shizuru smile " Good morning Tomoe-han. what's my schedule today? " she open her office door while her secretary check her schedule.
" good news, no meetings today, all you got to do is to sign the papers on your desk. "
Shizuru sit behind her desk , she lean back and sigh " that's good, I'm not in the mood to attend any boring meeting. " she look to the papers on her desk " so many papers to sign. my butt will surely glued on my chair all day. "
Tomoe giggled " so want me to get you a tea since you're stuck there? "
Shizuru pick her pen and stated to read the papers and sign " yes please.. "
Tomoe walk out to prefer her hard working boss .
once the door close, she put her pen down and stared at the picture on the right side of her desk. On the picture is she and Natsuki, Natsuki's right eye is close as she kissed her right cheek as Natsuki smile.
It's been 3 years since she last saw Natsuki, when she got to the apartment they shared after their fight , she saw the closet open and all Natsuki's clothes are gone . she asked their friends if they know where Natsuki is, they don't know where she is only Mai, Mai said next week Natsuki would leave the country because she would be transfer there for work if she accepted the offer and Natsuki just call her recently to say she accepted the offer and Natsuki told about their break up . even if she went to the airport the day Natsuki's departure to stop her and apologize to her. she didn't make it 'cause the plane Natsuki went on just leave 5 minutes ago.
Shizuru sigh and blink a couple of times to stop her tears from falling. Even after all these years, she still love her. The door open and she sit straight and resume to signing the papers. Tomoe woke in with a tray a kettle of tea a a cup on it. she push the tray on Shizuru's left side and pour her a cup of tea. she then give it to Shizuru who accepted it with a thank you and sip her tea. Tomoe look at Shizuru's face and said
" You missed her . " its a statement than a question. Shizuru put her cup down and sigh.
" Everyday. " Shizuru felt her eyes sting so she took a deep breath and close her eyes .
Tomoe keep looking at her with a sad look. it hurts her too to see her friend like this.
" why don't you search for her, its not that hard for you to pay people to find her. " Tomoe suggested.
Shizuru shook her head " I'm scared.. I'm scared that even if I find her, she won't feel the same. like she do before. "
Tomoe just patted her shoulder and decided to change the topic.
" oh! before I forget , you're mother called earlier, saying that your cousin Reito will be arriving next month here. she said to call her after you receive her message. "
Shizuru stop signing and look up to Tomoe. " Reito huh. well I better call my mother now.. "
Tomoe nodded then walk out to start working. Shizuru dialed a number, it rings 3 times before a kyoto accented voice answered.
" Hello Mother " Shizuru greeted, as she leaned back
" Hello Kitsune. "
" So what are you gonna talk about Reito mother? "
" oh! about that, I was wondering if you're fine to let your cousin Reito with her Girlfriend to live with you temporary. He said he couldn't make a call to you because of her busy schedule and ask me this favor. his house is still not complete so he's asking if its okay to stay with your house for a while with her Girlfriend . "
Shizuru tapped her chin as she think " sure, why not. I have only one spare room, since its her Girlfriend they can share one bed. "
" he will be grateful, he will be arriving next month. I'll live a message to him saying you agreed. anyway, I gotta go dear, I have a tea ceremony . always take care of yourself, "
" alright., I'll call him if I have a spare time. Its been a long time since I saw him. take care yourself too, don't tire yourself to much. bye mother " Shizuru hang up and sigh, she's been sighing a lot today. she thought about Reito, its been years since she last saw him. he just went to state and live there without saying his reason.
She missed him and can't wait to see him next month, they have a lot of catching to do. She wonder what his girlfriend is like. but she's happy that he have settle to one girl and even live together. She turn her attention to her work and began reading to finish early. she and the gang always have a reunion day every Friday. they build a house for them to meet and hang out. she sigh again and stop thinking.
