Chapter: Of Secrets or Hiding the Truth
xXx
I woke up with puffy red eyes. I had been crying the whole night that I didn't realize I cried myself to sleep. I looked at the calendar. Today is the 16th of May, meaning I still have two more days left to sort things out.
I got out of bed and headed for the bathroom to take a shower while mentally thinking of a plan I'm setting up.
First priority: to tell Jun and Ryuu. I asked my father not to tell Jun as he would surely freak out and would even tell it to Ryuu. They will be extremely worried and would even force me not to go. They have been constantly looking out for me and demanding a report about my life ESPECIALLY now that I'm going out with Yahiro.
I turned the knob on and let some hot water run down my body.
I could clearly remember the look on their faces when they caught me sneaking behind their back the very first day I went out with Yahiro. Sheer horror and worry were painted in their faces. Becauseduringthattime,theyhaven'tseenwhoYahiroreallyis, the voice in my back said. His honesty and his heart together with his courage and cowardice too. Going to the extent of playing the bad guy and not thinking of his own self, he really do care about other people, especially to the people he loves. That is the Yahiro I have come to know and love, and probably the only person I will ever come to love.
I let out a sigh, turned off the knob, dried myself and changed to my uniform. Then I went on to my musings.
Second priority is of course, telling Yahiro. I don't even know how am I going to break this news to him. He would be mad, that's given, but most of all, he will surely be hurt and that is the very last thing that I wanted to do at him. True enough, we've been dating for over four months already and I have been the only one who's quite passionate about declaring my love for him. He never told me that he loved me yet I know, deep in his heart, he cares. So how on earth will I tell him that I needed to attend a marriage interview? And that… That I needed to accept it?
I glanced at the clock and realized I was running late. Jun was nowhere to be found so I'm guessing he went ahead of me… Oh,that'sright.Hedidn'tsleepheretonight.HewasatRyuu'splace.
I frantically grabbed my backpack and quickly headed for the man door, the car already waiting for me. Before I could reach the car, I saw someone in my peripheral vision watching me intently behind the gate. Lavender-hairedguy. Initially, I thought it was Yahiro. But closer inspection and staring at him made me realized that it wasn't Yahiro at all. Surely the guards would let him in, knowing he has been visiting me here. But in this case, it is different. The guards didn't recognize him at all. Immediately, I chucked my bag inside the car and ran towards the gate but before I can finally reached it, the guy smiled, went back to his silver sleek car and drove off.
'Who was that?' I asked myself, making my way back to the car. Then it finally hit me.
"Oh no," I squeaked.
It was Kuniyoshi Alexander.
