"I've never seen anyone more...amazingly insane than you. Other than Taito, I WOA-"
I am regretting it. I am now regretting every second of it. Every second of having to sit out in this roller coaster that turned a 360 every blasted minute.
The people behind me screamed in horror. The people in the front screamed in terror.
But the blonde girl beside myself screamed in pure delight.
She whooped as the roller coaster made another turn. Every turn it was taking, my stomach was taking the toll, but I well deserved it. After all, I was the one who suggested that we spend some 'sibling time' somewhere, and I suggested a theme park. I never knew how much tolerance Rin had accumulated for these things, until just now. We had been re-queueing for this particular ride for the past four times, and it was the most extreme ride in the park. And we had to queue up right after I ate a full meal.
"Len? What's wrong? Why are you being so silent? Oi, Len. Dashing young man. Slave driver. Shou-"
"I'm not a shout-" I cupped my hand over my mouth, feeling the sick bile crawling up my throat. Rin looked at me, worried, and she pointed to the hot dog stand and herself. I hastily nodded, hand still over mouth, and ran to the nearest washroom.
Thankfully, there weren't many people. I puked unrecognisable stuff out, and washed up, sighing, before turning up to the mirror to check myself. I can't help it. I had this habit ever since...Shit.
Then I spotted a familiar blue, along with his trademark sky-blue scarf.
Kaito.
He's at the other end of the washroom, where there were small tables to do who-knows-what. I was real lucky that he couldn't see me from where he was. I should just lead Rin and bail out of the park...
"Len!"
Okay, maybe not as lucky as I thought myself to be. I sighed, and turned around to face him, putting up the false grin, laughing, "Hey, Kaito, I never expected to meet you here."
He was a good teacher. He didn't force his opinions on us like most other teachers in school. He even hung out with students. I would've been on good terms with him, with him being an easy target for teasing and a person who easily takes those jokes and forgives in a heartbeat. But he was my enemy in the battle for love. For Rin's affections.
He smiled softly, and adjusted his long scarf, looking a little fidgety. His voice was a little soft when he spoke,"I never did too. Rin told me that she was spending some time with you, so I thought that I would probably spend some time with my family as well. I never imagined that we would end up meeting again."
I didn't want to, but being the nice and considerate person I am..."Do you want to join me and Rin for dinner later? She'll probably be totally ecstatic to see your face."
Kaito chuckled and shook his head, what looked like thoughtfulness plastered on his face,"She's spending too much time with me recently. It's better she gets some time to spread her wings and breath a little fresh air. You'll be inviting a crowd if you invite me anyway. Kaiko likes your company, and Akaito'll manage to somehow get the rest of my family into this."
Kaiko, the shy petite girl who looked so much alike her brother? I could deal.
Akaito, his party animal personality would end up with someone embarrassing themselves unintentionally, like getting drunk, or insane dares. I exhaled in relief quietly at Kaito's rejection.
Taito. I shuddered, and was very glad he did not accept it. Very, very glad.
I faked a disappointed smile, and waved as we parted at the door of the washroom.
I stared after the clumsy blue figure who disappeared further into the sea of humanity, feeling a little low. I spun around after I couldn't see him anymore, and bumped into a familiar female. A familiar blond. I looked up from the ground, and was about to happily address her, when I realised that I had been anticipating the wrong blond. The wrong girl.
I was sorely mistaken about who she was.
She was not Rin Kagamine.
She was Akita Neru.
...Damn.
The lopsided pigtail, the repetitive clicking of the phone keys. There was no mistake.
In addition, there was those brows furrowed in concentration. Neru then gave a final press on a button on the phone, and dropped her phone. The lanyard stopped the phone in mid-plunge, letting it hang safely, swinging like a pendulum, almost similar to bungee jumping. It was hypnotising, but her voice broke my trance. I knew that Akita Neru rarely stopped staring at her phone, and when she finally did, it was usually something serious.
...Or something bad.
"Leb Kagamine. Regarding your last sms, I want answers. Now."
