Chapter 3: The Phone Call
Yumi was still sleeping soundly when two knocks on the door woke her up.
-Knock, knock-
Yumi's eyes opened groggily, as she was slowly getting herself to a sitting position. She looked around and quickly realized that she was not in her bedroom.
'Wait, this isn't my room. Where am I?' she wondered to herself when she suddenly remembered what occurred last night.
'Oh, I remember a guy about my age hearing my shouts for help, then knocked some sense to those two men. He introduced himself after, and so did I. That's all I remember.' Yumi remembered now.
"Oh I'm sorry, did I wake you up?" A guy's voice asked, startling Yumi's train of thoughts.
Yumi recognized that voice! It belongs to her rescuer. Turning her head to the door, she answered.
"Yeah, I'm awake. You can come in now if you want …Sakomoto-san right?" Yumi replied.
"That's right. I just need to check up on you today and give you breakfast"
The door creaked open, and a teenage boy came in with a breakfast tray held in his hands.
A delicious aroma swiftly filled the entire room. And then a stomach grumbling was heard after.
"Looks like oka-san made breakfast just in time." Kaoru chuckled as he walked to Yumi and gave her the breakfast tray.
On the breakfast tray, were foods fit for a king, or in this case a princess. Steamed rice with grilled fish, miso soup and ice-cold barley tea was laid out before the mocha-eyed girl.
"Yum, these look delicious! Tell your mom thank you for cooking such a mouth-watering breakfast. Itadakimasu!" the now awake-and-hungry girl responded.
"Sure, and don't eat too fast even though you're hungry, you might get indigestion."
"I'll keep that in mind".
As soon as Yumi finished eating, she questioned the man with curiosity of what happened after she introduced herself.
"Well let me see, after telling me your name, you collapsed and good thing I caught you before you bruised yourself" Kaoru narrated; eyes closed, trying to refresh his memory.
'Oh, guess that's why my mind was blank and black after I told him my name.' Yumi exclaimed to herself.
"So I carried you to my house, and boy you should've seen my mom's expression!" Kaoru concluded," Her face was of complete astonishment and surprise!"
"I see, well I'm just wondering, how on earth did you kick a can with amazing accuracy? Better yet, how did you even manage to hurt a man probably twice as big as you to the point where he couldn't stand up?" Yumi's curiosity reaching its peak.
"Ok I'll tell you two things that will clear those questions of yours."
So he started telling Yumi that he, in fact is the captain of the Hanedara's elite soccer team and that he practices Aikido, a type of Japanese martial arts.
"Now I understand how you managed to do all of those things to those men!" Yumi exclaimed. Then she realized she's still not in her own bedroom.
"…OMG what time is it Kaoru-kun?"
Of course with this, dear Yumi started to panic, knowing that her parents were probably worried for her obviously, especially her twin brother Yuuki.
"Um, I believe it's around 10 am right now" Kaoru answered while looking at a wall clock behind Yumi.
"Arigatou for everything you've done to me Kaoru-kun. I can't thank you enough! If it weren't for you who knows what could've happen to me, probably worse."
Yumi bowed with gratitude, and asked him where her clothes and stopped half-way when she realized something.
She was drenched to the bone last night. And now she's dry and wearing someone else's t-shirt and shorts.
This only meant one thing.
'A person undressed me last night and in all likelihood saw me nude!' Yumi thought to herself horrified.
Kaoru seeing Yumi's sudden distressed plastered to her face immediately figured it out. He defended himself quickly.
"Oh, if you meant that, my mom dried you up and everything, so no need to panic" Kaoru reassured.
"Oh I understand…."
Then the atmosphere in the room completely changed.
"Ano… you can find your clothes neatly folded on the coffee table downstairs"
"H-hai"
So she went downstairs and got her clothes and changed in the washroom. After she was finished, she thanked the boy and told him goodbye, she went to the front door and as she was about to open it, the guy stopped her and suddenly asked her.
"Yumi-chan, your last name is Fukuzawa right? Then that means that you're the student council president's-"
"Twin sister? that is correct." The brunette finished his question.
The two shared a time of silence when the young man broke it.
"Since you're going home, mind if I can accompany you? It'll calm my mind if I know you went to your house safe and sound"
"Ok then, shall we go Kaoru-kun?"
In the Fukuzawa household…
-Ring, ring-
Fukuzawa Miki was washing dishes when the phone rang. She wiped her hands dry on her beige apron and picked up the phone, not knowing that Yuuki also picked up the second headset but he didn't say anything. He just listened.
"Hello, this is Fukuzawa Miki speaking."
"Gokigenyou Miki oba-sama, may I please talk to Yumi?" Ogasawara Sachiko spoke.
"Ah, Sachiko-san, Yumi isn't here. I thought she was with you?"
"Ie, Yumi isn't here with me, she walked all the way home and arrived there last night, correct?"
Sachiko started walking back and forth, the phone practically glued on her ears.
"No she isn't here! Last night's rain was too hard, so I thought Yumi had a sleepover there with you." The kind woman suddenly replied with anxiousness in her voice.
"She didn't sleep over here; she left as soon the rain started to pour" The young heiress lied with perfect ease, yet regretting her actions last night.
"I see, I'll try and find her using our family car then." Sachiko offered help.
"No, I have this feeling that she's alright and besides, she is a part of me because she is my daughter. Thank you very much Sachiko-chan but that is not necessary."
"I understand. Please do tell me when you and the others find her. Gokigenyou"
"I will Sachiko-chan, goodbye and have a good day."
-Click-
Putting the phone down, Yumi's dad told his wife that he assumed that the person she was on the phone with was Yumi's onee-sama. And with that she told him the whole conversation.
"So Yumi's not with Sachiko-chan or with us? Where is she honey and why aren't you upset?" The man suddenly became anxious, not knowing where her daughter was.
"I know that deep in my soul, that Yumi is fine. I can feel her ok? Trust me on this darling. I know our Yumi is strong and a big girl now" Miki-san replied.
"But if she's still not here by lunch, we will call the police agreed?"
"Agreed"
Both parents didn't know that Yuuki eavesdropped on the conversation on the phone. Yuuki remembered his chat with Yumi last night.
-Flashback-
"Yumi please, you don't have to confront her right now, this can wait tomorrow when there is light OUTSIDE?"
Yuuki was standing, blocking the front door. It was cold and dark outside and spring nights were still cold, according to him. Her sister Yumi was going to meet her souer, Sachiko-san.
"You don't understand Yuuki, I need answers to this question of mine that's haunting my mind for days." Yumi retorted.
Hearing this made Yumi's twin stop protesting, him knowing what the question was.
"Will onee-sama choose me instead of her family's wishes?"
"Besides, I already got permission to go outside from mom."
"Ok, but promise me you'll come back home safe and sound ok? Not to mention alive."
Yumi's right eyebrow met her hairline.
"I promise Yuuki, and you worry too much. I'll be fine and back before you know it ok? "
"Don't talk to strangers and do not take anything from them. Especially candy."
Yumi started giggling, and then burst out laughing while trying to reply back to her brother's statement.
"Hey, I'm no kid you know!" She playfully punched Yuuki's arm as she opened the door and closed it.
"Yeah, since when did you start growing up without me Yumi?"
Whispered Yuuki to the closed door and just anticipated by the time their "meeting" was over, her sister's heart will still be in one piece hopefully.
-End of flashback-
Then after that trip from memory lane, the doorbell rang…
