It was almost 1:30 when we Eriol and I decided to have lunch together. So we went to our cars, Eriol's a Jaguar, mine a Mercedes. We decided to go to a new restaurant Eriol had found so he went in front and I followed. When we neared the restaurant he showed me the place and we went to park our cars and then went in.
The restaurant was packed with boys and girls!
We went and sat at a table for two when the waiter who knew Eriol came and started talking with us and gave us the menu.
Eriol-"Ba! The most expensive food in this place is 60 bucks! Where am I supposed to spend my father's fraud money?!
-"For God's sake, be quiet here! The hospital incident was enough!
We ordered and were waiting for our food when I saw a girl sitting behind Eriol in front of a whose back was to me. The thing that got my attention about the girl was that she was crying. Eriol heard them talking and stretched his neck a little to hear better. They were talking and he was confirming every word they said!
The girl-"Weren't you the one who told me you'd marry me no matter what?!"
The boy-"I didn't say that."
The girl-" Then how did you say it? What is the difference between 'saying' and' saying'?"
Eriol-"Hell, there is a big difference! We have Saying and we have saying! Totally different!"
-"Be quiet Eriol! They'll hear you!"
The boy-"Those things are in the past! Let go!"
The girl-"Now that you have ruined my life? I'm talking about that night! Remember?"
Eriol-"Oh God please!! Let him not remember so she would have to remind him!! Oh God, God…"
-"SHHH!! Shut up!"
The boy-"Yes I remember, but you wanted it too!"
Eriol-"ukhh you dope! Couldn't you have forgotten? You and your good memory! Who would have been hurt if you had forgotten and she would have to tell so we could hear! Stupid…"
-"Eriol!"
Eriol-"Heavens! I only have the audio! You have the whole video? Like, can you see the girl's face?"
-"Quiet! Ye I can see her."
The girl-"Your attitude was different that night."
The boy-" If you continue like this I'm going to leave!"
The girl-"I don't care! You've already ruined my life!"
The boy-"If that's all your problem…here."
Then he put his hand in his pocket and took out a cheque. The girl paused for a second, wiped her tears, took the cheque and got up. But before leaving she said:
-"Do you treat all girls like this?"
The boy-"That's none of you business!"
The girl- "That's fine. But at least you have a souvenir from me! A reminder. I know that you'll think of me soon enough."
I was looking at her eyes when she turned and looked at me. I slowly nodded my head in sympathy but all she did was smirk.
Eriol-"Do you still have the video? The audio is muted!"
-"Nope. I don't have it anymore. She went."
Eriol-"Now, there is something very fishy in this whole thing! Since I can remember, it was the girls that were given a souvenir by the boys! These days the world had turned so bad that guys are getting things from women! Dude, I think that the guy is pregnant and he doesn't know! I mean, since he has no experience and stuff! He won't be sure until he has given a test! Look at what he's eating, may be then we'll know if he's pregnant with a girl or a boy!"
-"Don't start blabbering again."
Eriol-"You don't believe me? See, these last days my dad was eating a lot of sour stuff! And you saw that in the hospital they said that he has a son! Oh wait, speaking of my dad, what was wrong with him again?
-"Zip it! Remind me to tell Tomoyo about this! If you care this much for your dad, how much do you think you'll care for your wife?"
Eriol-"So much for our 25 years of friendship! You won't even help me marry Tomoyo AND she is your SISTER!"
-"First of all, I won't give you my sister! Over my dead body! Second of all, she doesn't want to get married now! What can I do? She is not a kid and I can't force her! I mean I won't!"
Eriol-"What type of sister is she? You have to slap that little ugly spoiled brat! Don't even say her name in front of me! I hope she finds no suitors and stays with your parents and cause them shame!"
-"pff. Baka, you have no idea! Just last night, one of my mother's families called and set a date to come to her proposal!"
Eriol-"WHAT?? Those little pieces of…of…-ukh-. OVER MY DEAD BODY!!"
-"Oi!"
Just then, they brought our food and placed it on the table and went.
Eriol-"Man, I'm seriously pissed now! As if something ripped out my heart!"
-"Oh so you DO feel sad!"
Eriol-"What, you think I'm a potato! But, come on Syao, are you serious or are kidding?!"
-"I swear I'm serious! Plus, this is just one of her suitors!"
Eriol-"Oi! 'this is just one of her suitors!'. Pff. I said I'll marry your sister! Why are you making her so appealing!?"
-"Go kill yourself! Tomoyo won't marry you!
Eriol-"Please! When is the proposal?"
-"…"
Eriol-"Syao-kun!!"
-"Don't call me that!"
Eriol-"Ok. I'm soooory!! Now tell me!!"
-"Nope. You too temtatious!"
Eriol-"WHAT? Me? I'm always with you!"
-"Exactly!"
Eriol-"Not that you don't like it! Who was it last night that-"
I didn't let him finish.
-"Ye well, that's it! That is precisely why I won't tell you the day!"
Eriol-"kk! I swear! I promise I'll be a good boy!! You can even take me to someone and I'll repent!! But then don't come to me and tell me 'let's go sightseeing!'"
-"EE! You talk a lot! Friday night! FRIDAY NIGHT!"
Eriol-"What are you a matchstick over there? Why didn't you stop this?!"
-"I can't let go of my life and sit by the phone and wait and see who wants to propose so that I can cancel! Have the guts! Do something yourself!"
This time he was on the verge of tears!
Eriol-"What can I do? It's you stupid sister's fault! Oh MY GOD! WHAT IF SHE DOESN'T EVEN LIKE ME??"
-"Of course she loves you, you idiot! She just thinks that you're not ready!"
Eriol-" Can't we get married and THEN get ready?!"
-"…"
Eriol-"Ok, so tell me this! If she loves me, then why did she allow them to come to her proposal?!"
-"She doesn't even know! My mother set this up."
Eriol-"I hope she dies!"
-"Shut up! Your being really rude today!!"
Eriol-"Sorry! It's just…when they say 'Tomoyo's suitors' my backbone starts shaking!"
I laughed at him.
-"Don't worry, she'll marry you in the end! Now, if she finds out about this, she'll get mad."
Eriol-"If I ask you something, you promise not to say no?!"
-"Depends!"
Eriol-"Please say you'll not say no!!"
-"Fine, I wont say no!"
Eriol-"Can you do something so I can be there!!"
-"You want to crash it?"
Eriol-"ye."
-"Ok, but no fighting alright?!"
Eriol-"I promise!! "
-"Ok. Now eat!"
So we both started eating. We had both ordered stakes. But then, I started talking again.
-"Eriol, where does Kinomoto-san live?"
Eriol-"Exactly in front of our house. The huge mansion. Why?"
-"I really like her…."
Eriol-"The house?"
He started drinking coke after he said that.
-"SAKURA!"
And so he choked.
