Chapter 2
BLIND DATES
O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O
"Sakura, those cheeks are as pale as every. You want me to put some color to it?" asked their gayish friend, Narumi.
"Okay then Narumi. But while you're at it, let Yuka tell you about her child." Sakura said excitedly as Yuka entered the house. Narumi suddenly screamed.
"Narumi, what's wrong with you now?" asked Yuka exasperatedly.
"Who's the father!?" gasped Narumi. Yuka and Sakura sweatdropped.
"There's no father. Ji-chan said it was abandoned so we took her in. Relax Narumi." explained Yuka slowly so Narumi could calm down.
"But wait there dearest. You know how hard it is to raise a child. I'm sure Ji-chan would help you but you can't always be dependent on him." said Narumi sadly. Suddenly, his lips formed a sweet smile. "Dearies, have you ever heard of a 'blind date'?" he asked.
"Oh! I've heard about those! Come one Yuka, try it with me please?" asked Sakura with cute puppy eyes. Yuka hesitated but then gave in.
"Alright. I'll come with you. But Narumi, be sure I'll like this guy or else!" Yuka said threateningly which made Narumi sweatdropped.
-O-O-
"Come on Yuka. How do I look?" asked Sakura as she showed Yuka the dress she wore that night.
"You still look like the same person who asked me that about a minute ago." sighed Yuka. She wasn't really enjoying this, waiting for the guys to come. What she feared most was what if the guys were those bad ones? What would happen to them then?
"Yuka, you still there?" Sakura asked as she waved her hand on Yuka's face. She was snapped out of her daydream.
"Yeah. Sorry." Yuka replied. Suddenly Sakura squealed, "What!?" asked Yuka worriedly.
"Look over there Yuka." said Sakura as she pointed at the restaurants door. Two young handsome men came in, "Do you think they're ours Yuka?" Yuka didn't reply. She didn't like this at all. Sakura started waving at them then they appeared to be waving back.
Those two weren't for them. It was for the young girls right next to them. Sakura sighed.
"Told you this was a bad idea." said Yuka as she sipped some juice. Another one came in. He was sorta bald but he was handsome. Sakura shook her head, wishing THIS wasn't for her. Suddenly, the guy approached her and asked,
"Is Ms. Sakura here?" Sakura shook her head and Yuka saw this. "Sakura stop lying." Yuka said. Sakura gave her a glare then looked sweetly at the guy.
"You must be my blind date?" Sakura sighed in defeat. The man sat down eagerly and said,
"My name is Ryuu. My friend is still outside. I'm very pleased to meet you Ms. Sakura." then the doors revealed another man. He wore a blue polo with black pants and leather shoes. Also, he had shades.
"That's him. His name is Hiro. He may be blind but his a really nice person." introduced Ryuu. Yuka smiled at him and went back to sipping her juice.
Fast Forward
"So Hiro, what happened? What caused you to get blind." asked Yuka as they were taking a stroll down at the park. Hiro did not reply. "I'm sorry. I know it's not my business or anything…" she said but then trailed off.
"Don't worry. I got blinded because of a car accident a year ago." he explained.
Suddenly, slow music played.
"Hey, I know this song. It's my favorite!" exclaimed Yuka and Hiro together. Their cheeks both showed a tint of pink. Then rain poured. They quickly ran to the nearest shelter they could find, just across the street. Yuka had to guide Hiro carefully so they both won't get too much rain.
As the rain made pitter-patter sounds and the slow music played. Yuka and Hiro suddenly just fell into each others arms and danced in a slow rocking movement. Yuka decided to ask Hiro something.
"Hey Hiro. Are you free this Saturday?"
"Yes. Why'd you ask?" replied Hiro.
"You see, my child's baptism is on Saturday and I was wondering if you might come." Yuka mumbled as her head was supported on Hiro's shoulders.
"You have a child?" asked Hiro, surprised.
"Hn. My Ji-chan found her abandoned so we took her in. So will you come?" Yuka said, not realizing the surprise in his tone.
"Okay then." Hiro said gently as they continued to dance as the rain started to stop.
This isn't even the second surprise
