Chapter 1 : My Kind of Boy : Good looking
Mikan's POV
And so hey, let's dance the night away
And bang, bang the boogie like Kid Rock said
I don't know who you are
You dance just like a star in a video show
I wonder who you are, do you hear me though?
Here we are,in my Porsche, on our way to the mall. I wonder what Hotaru would want me to buy her? She like, has everything already! She's stinking rich because of her inventions (I'm richer . ) But I can't wait to buy my new strings though and I think I might buy a new guitar even! Well, that is if I still have enough money. . .
End of POV
A shiny yellow Porsche parked smoothly on the parking space next to a hot red convertible. And out of this fine car, two lovely ladies stepped out. One with long auburn hair locks tied in a high pony tail with Gucci sunglasses was wearing a BNY white shirt with an overalls style added up with a cute necktie plus black shorts and checkered high-cuts. Accessorized with metallic chains called bangles and rings. She also had her Dolce & Gabana black bag. This chic was obviously going for the rebel hot chic style.
The other one rather, was wearing a green sleeveless blouse with silver buttons adorning its upper front side with white shorts that had two black buttons on the side and flats. With her shoulder length raven hair clipped at one side, she now wore her aviator shades. In her hands lie her blackberry and white clutch.
These two lovely ladies are Mikan Sakura and Hotaru Imai making their way to HM, the largest and most popular mall in the whole of Japan.
The two friends separated once they got in the mall with Mikan arguing Hotaru to not leave her, but Hotaru being Hotaru didn't listen to her and asked for the money to buy what she needed instead. And now she's alone in a Music Store called "Symphony".And by alone, I really mean alone.Asides the shopkeeper, she's the only one in there .So she went on with her business and approached the shopkeeper.
"Uhmm, excuse me. Do you have guitar strings here?" she asked the shopkeeper with the nail file and bubble gum.
"Yeah.chew.What string.chew.do you.chew.want?"Mikan was getting irritated with the bubble gum chewing shopkeeper and couldn't help but stare at the wretched woman in front of her.
"Hey. I said what string?blow.pop." Startled by the popping of the bubble gum, she got out of her trance and smiled apologetically.
"Uhmm. . one set please." The gum-chewing-nail-filing-shopkeeper went off to the storage room to get her strings, while waiting she decided to roam around the shop.
Mikan's POV
I got to the musical instruments station and saw the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.A Yamaha fg-200 Red level Nippon Gakki. It's glowing in my eyes !
I went and strummed the strings with a G-chord. It was heaven to my ears. I have to buy this ! so I looked at the price tag. "Holy ! It costs 5 000 yen ?Rats ! I gave Hotaru 10 000, and so all that's left of me now is 3 000. I should have brought more money." I really want to buy this.I really really REALLY want to buy this guitar ! Wait, maybe I can ask for a discount ! Yeah, maybe I can. So with that in my mind, I went off to the shopkeeper again to ask for a discount.
End of POV
When Mikan went back to the counter where the shopkeeper was supposed to be, she was shocked to see a good-looking young man that looked to be around 19 or 20 instead of the gum-chewing-nail-filing-shopkeeper she encountered moments ago.
"Uhmm, excuse me but where's the gum-chew-uh, I mean the lady shopkeeper here ?" asked Mikan politely to the young man in front of her. sadly the young man didn't even bother to answer her or to acknowledge her existence !
And so, Mikan poked him in the cheek thinking that this man was in a trance.
"Hey, mister, are you deaf ? I said where's the gum-chewing-nail-filing-shopkeeper?" she said in between pokes.
The young man getting irritated, glared at her. "How should I know where that old hag is? And do you mind ? Normal people don't capture someone's attention by poking their goddamned cheeks !" the man said furiously.
"Well, it's not my fault that you were ignoring me while I was asking a question. You should've just answered you know !" and with that she walked away from the store and forgot to ask for a discount AND buy her strings.
Mikan's POV.
Oooh. The nerve of that guy ! It's not my fault that he wasn't answering that simple question ! Just because he's handsome and all, he doesn't need to treat me like trash! I swear if I ever saw his face again I'll rip him to pieces and poke his bloody red eyes out and feed it to hi- !
End of POV
Because of her continuous ranting and cursing she bumped into someone. It was another young man, a blonde with shining blue eyes. He was a good looking fella, I'll tell you that.
" butt hurts !" she said as she rubbed her butt. "Hey you ! Aren't you looking you stupid little- -Ruka ? Ruka, is that you ?"
The blonde man that was named Ruka looked at the woman he bumped into. "Mi-Mikan ? woah. It really is you ! I see you haven't changed at all ! You're still as clumsy as I remember." Ruka said sheepishly while helping her out.
"Mou. What does that mean Ruka ? I'm not clumsy. I just trip and fall most of the time you see me.I think you're the jinx here Ruka." Mikan said jokingly while she accepted the helping hand of Ruka.
" Whatever you say Mikan. Anyways, what are you doing here ? I didn't know that THE Mikan Sakura likes to shop"
"I don't. My guitar needs new strings and- oh crud. I forgot to buy the damned strings ! I gotta go Ruka ! It's nice to see you again ! Go to my place later, I'll call Hotaru over, too. Bye!" with that she ran off to the music store to retrieve her strings.
At the Music Store
"Hey, sorry. I forgot to get my strings, how much is it?" she said while getting her purse without even bothering to check the shopkeeper.
"Tch. It's the weirdo again. Took you long enough to barge back in here to get your strings." With the sound of his voice, Mikan looked back and snapped.
"YOU !" she pointed an accusing finger on him
"Yeah, me. Now here. Get your strings already so that you can leave with your germs." He said nonchalantly while handing out her strings.
"How much ?" she said with an irritated voice whilst ignoring his comment. She, too wanted to go home already and end this bad day.
"500 yen" with that she gave him the 500 yen and walked off but then stopped to a halt and went back to the shopkeeper. Sensing her presence, the young man brought down his manga and asked "What now, freak?"
Trying to ignore the comment and putting up her most angelic smile albeit the irritation she is feeling, she said in her sweetest voice, wait, I mean pleaded in her sweetest voice : "Can I please have a discount on the Yamaha fg-200 Red level Nippon Gakki over there?" she pleaded with the batting of her lashes and pout.
"No"
"Oh c'mon, 50%"
"No"
"34%"
"No"
"25%"
"No"
"15%"
"No"
"5%"
"No"
"1%"
"No"
"How about this, I'll pay you 2 500 today then pay you another 2 500 tomorrow"
"sure"
"really?"
"No"
"Pft. Oh I give up. C'mon please ! I really WANT that guitar !"
"Then buy it, it's 5 000 yen"
"That's the problem ! I don't have 5 000 best friend took 10 000 and I just brought 13 000 yen!"
"Look here, kid. I don't care about your problems, if you don't have the money then you better le—"
"Natsume !" someone that just came in broke off the conversation or rather the argumentation of the two.
"Oi, Ruka, what are you doing here ?" with the sound of Ruka's name, Mikan snapped her head to the direction of the person."
"Ruka-pyon !" She unconsciously ran and bear hugged Ruka.
"Uhmm. . what's the matter Mikan ?" Ruka asked while trying to take off Mikan's death grip on him.
"It's this arrogant bastard ! he doesn't want to give me a discount on the guitar I really wanna have and he's really mean to me !
WAAAAAAAA !" Mikan complained. Natsume twitched in annoyance and just wanted to strangle her to death.
"How much is it?" Ruka asked, pointing the question to Natsume.
"5 000"
"5 000 only ? Mikan you're rich, you can afford 5 000." He replied, somewhat not believing his ears.
"I can afford it but your girlfriend stole my 10 000 and I only brought 13 000 yen.I know ! why won't you pay for the other 2 500 ? I promise I'll pay you once we get home!PLEASE" feeling half guilty for the wrong doing of his girlfriend, and unable to resist the pleading face of Mikan, he gave up and paid for the other half of the guitar.
"Thanks Ruka-pyon ! I owe you" and with that she ran off to the food court, Hotaru and Mikan's meeting place, carrying a new guitar and her new set of strings.
Meanwhile on Ruka and Natsume's side
"So how do you know that loud weirdo ?" Natsume asked his best friend, Ruka.
"She's my cousin and my girlfriend's best the way, why are you in here anyway ? Better yet, why are you taking care of this shop?" asked Ruka to his perplexed best friend.
"I got bored. And since this store had the least costumers here in our mall, I decided to hang around here. To have peace and quiet. Turns out, it's really noisy , stupid girl." Natsume said nonchalantly.
"Haha. Well, that's Mikan for you, wanna get something to eat ? I'm starving !"
"Hn." And off they went to the food court.
And that ends chapter 1 :D
