I woke up in a jolt. I looked around my surroundings as memories of previous occurrence played back in my head.
// Where am l//
I picked up the jacket on my lap that had previously wrapped around my body. I took in the name on the jacket.
// Rukawa Kaede//
I fingered the letters on the jacket unconsciously and smile.
// his jacket… //
'Click'
I heard one of the doors opened and quickly stood up and turn toward the direction of the sound. // Oh my…//
There he is looking more beautiful than before. I stared agape as he walk towards me half-naked. I felt blood rushing to my face as he touch my forehead. "Daijoubu?" he asked. I were about to faint again, fortunately, he remove his hand fast enough for me to breathe.
I do not know what came over me. A sudden wave of emotion flowed through me. I don't know whether its happiness or exhaustion. I cried. For the first time since my mother died seven years ago. I watch his slit-like eyes widen a little, and then he frown.
Flashback
I was only ten when mother died. It was excruciating for me. I saw dad cried for the first time on the day of the funeral. All dressed in white, I stood in front of my mother's coffin crying softly, bowing down looking intently on her. I will not be afraid…if …if she opens her eyes and speaks to me, I definitely won't.
Two small hands reached out and wrapped around me, trying to console me.
"Daijoubu?" he cooed. I turned around and saw his blue eyes staring benevolently at me. I cried harder.
// who is he again//
After the funeral, my dad made plans for me and my brother to migrate to
America to study. He wanted to forget everything thing here and start anew, just like he wanted us too. I was not given the time to contemplate nor protest. I did not say good bye to him. I have not spoken since the incident...
End of flashback
My crying subsided. I gradually looked up and met a a pair of icy blue eyes. I felt something sway in my gut.
// Strange, those were familiar… //
Then I realized he was pointing to the other room. "Go change" At once I looked down, my ears became hot. I am in a messy situation. My sleeves are torn with the first few button left unbuttoned. He motioned to me again to the toilet again. Without hesitation, I made my way there briskly, I thought I was about to faint from embarrassment. He roughly shoved me into the toilet with a set of clothes and towel in my arms.
I locked the door and pressed my back against the door as I slide down it. I breathed in deeply. It was all too much for me. Too much for a girl like me.
