Chapter Two: My Old Friend
"What? Is that why you did all of that? That reason is unacceptable!" she spat. "Do you think it was my choice to love you? Didn't you know it was hard for me too? We're too different from each other and I stayed by your side all the time. I know you love me back, I can feel it...and everyone can see it" Natsume said. Mikan's eyes widened. Was I too obvious? she thought.
"Don't act like you know everything about me. Because I never...said...that I love you" what she had said broke his heart but he tried to be understanding, in exchange of Mikan's patience of his attitude. "I understand if you don't admit it now.
I will wait for you but by the time you're ready, I'll be there," he said.
END OF FLASHBACK
"Hn. How childish. And I even expected him to wait for me? How was he supposed to remember his promise when he doesn't even remember me anymore" she said while she looked outside the car window. It's still raining. Fortunately,the jam slowly moved and she went straight to her office.
When she was outside her office, it was still raining and she forgot to bring an umbrella. ⌠Oh.my.gosh. I left my umbrella in my apartment!" she screamed inside her car. So she had no choice but to walk in the rain. She loved the rain, but not this time. As she entered the office lobby, she was soaking wet and everyone in the room stared at her. She hated to be the center of attention, and embarrassment.
"Excuse me miss, I'm Ms. Sakura, the new--" she was about to say she's the new secretary but she was cut off by the girl behind the information desk. "I know a lot about you...Mikan-chan" the way the girl said her nickname was different,
as if they knew each other a few years ago. When she stared at the girl, her face was really familiar, and it struck her. It turned out to be her long-lost bestfriend from high-school.
"Anna-chan!" she screamed on top of her lungs. "Mikan-chan!" the girl behind the desk said and they both embraced which caught the attention of the people in the lobby. The two girls giggled like high-school girls. "You've gotta tell me what happened to you" the brunette's friend whispered and dragged her to the girls' comfort room.
"What happened to your life? Look at you...you look like fish out of water, literally!"Anna asked when she noticed that Mikan was soaking wet.
"(laughs) Oh, I'm just a little bit out in the rain today"
"So you still like the rain until now? Makes you remember of him?" her friend playfully nudged her in the sides. The tangerine-named girl blushed. HIM? she thought. If you're thinking HE is Natsume, well, you're wrong.
"S-sh-shut up! I said I already forgot about h-him" she stuttered. She remembered that she told Anna about her crush on this guy in high-school. But she never knew if he liked her too...she was out of confidence...and he was a heartthrob. She thought she will never have a chance on him. One thing that's also interesting≈she and that boy were once bestfriends!
"How could you forget about him? He was your first love, first heartbreak, and first kiss!" her friend blurted out. Mikan blushed harder. Her first kiss... A stabbing pain in her heart came back to her. It wasn't so long ago so her memories with HIM still seem like yesterday.
"Oh no! I forgot, the president of the company wants to see you as soon as you arrive" Anna said and dragged her outside without giving the blushing girl a chance to speak. "By the way, what was HIS name again?" her old friend asked while walking to the elevator. She hesitated a bit but managed to say his name when they were waiting for the elevator.
"Ruka Nogi" she shortly replied.
Anna's eyes widened. "What?!"
Sorry to make it so short, I had some trouble setting up the plot because some characters maybe too OOC and I'm afraid you will hate me for that. But anyways, at least I updated! Thank you for the huge response once again...really,
I was thinking that I won't continue it but because of your reviews I decided to go for it! And hey, I changed the title 'coz of some reason. Don't worry, you'll find out soon!
