--Chapter 3: I changed my mind!--
November 27, 2007
Tuesday
8:03 AM- Class 4-A's room- Haruno Sakura's desk
I looked at the wall clock. It's 8:03 in the morning. I looked at the mirror I'm holding and saw a very stressed face of a girl with wide forehead and big black panda eyes.
I sighed.
I think fate isn't on my favor.
"Okay class, I'll let you go outside with your partner and decide about the egg baby…" Tsunade-sensei flashed a triumphant smile while saying that. I guess she's tripping a lot again…
I sighed and grabbed the cursed-chicken-egg-on-a-box and stomped my feet while walking. I noticed that everyone has a pair to walk with so I looked for that richie-bastard and saw him reading a manga. What a lame boy… reading a manga during class hours?
I glared at him and sent some deadly aura in the air towards him…
He just stared at me blankly. "Hn."
"Hn your face…" I hissed and pretended to walk… he just continued to look at me lazily. I stepped my left foot and then the next and so on, not moving an inch on my place…
I looked at him at the corner of my eye. He continued reading the manga.
Grrr…. This boy is really pissing me!
"Oi, teme-chan!" oops… I don't mean it… I just heard it from Naruto…
I called him once more but did not react. Tsunade-sensei walked out of the room with a smirk on her lips, leaving me and Sasuke alone in the room.
"Tsunade-sensei wants us to fill up the form for the baby…" I said in a calm and collected voice... he raised his head and looked at me with a raised eyebrow…
SILENCE…
Blink…
Blink…
Is he a mute or it's just that he had his tongue cut?
I smiled to convince him that I am friendly… (Hey… I showed him my brightest smile… huh, lucky him!)
"Not in a million years that I'll pretend to be your husband…"
My 'brightest' smile is still plastered on my face. My veins started to twitch but I still try to maintain my smile to the extent that it hurts…
"Pardon?" I asked with a smile… but actually in the inside, I want to stab him by a knife and hung him upside down on a cross…
"Hn. Ugly."
Eh?
Could you please tell me that what I heard just now was the word LOVELY…
LOVELY isn't it?
He looked at me and repeated it once more… "I said you're ugly."
"Sou Daiyo…" I turned around, still smiling. When I reached the door and saw that he continued reading his manga, my eyes flashed and I smiled evilly… be thankful that he's a richie but if he's not, I'll pay a murderer to execute him and hang his dead body on our flag pole!!!
I pulled my shoe quickly and closed my left eye. I threw my shoe onto him with full force… (He must be thankful that I didn't see a rock or something heavy for it will be the last thing he'll saw aside from his perverted manga!
I ran as fast as I could and when I turned to look at him, the shoe left a red mark on his forehead! Haha! Bull's eye!
I stopped running upon reaching the bench under a cherry blossom tree. I sat there and looked at the egg. Poor thing… Sasuke is his earthly father! I then noticed the sheet of paper that Tsunade-sensei distributed and read the instructions.
I forgot to bring the coloring materials and marker from my bag! I tried to slap my forehead when a hand caught my wrist. I blinked at looked who it is and saw…
Whoah.
Handsome…
"Don't use your right hand, you're still holding the egg…" It's Hyuuga Neji. He smiled at me and of course I smiled at him… hmmm… now I know that he really is gentle and not all richies are bad.
I looked at my right hand and saw that I still have the egg on it. I laughed sheepishly realizing that if he hadn't stopped me, well I guess I broke the egg on my forehead and Sasuke will kill me for giving him a zero on RHGP…
"Anno… arigato…" I said and he smiled sweetly at me. Ooh! Does it mean that he…?
He…?
Oh God! He likes—
"Neji…" a voice from behind spoke. Neji moved a little so I saw who it is. It's Uchiha Sasuke. Tch, he ruined our moment!
"What are you doing here?" he asked in a monotone. Why is he that harsh to Neji? Neji is his best friend and then he's asking him that way?! What a delinquent!
"Just stopping your wife in killing your baby…" he answered with a smile and left. I blushed upon hearing the word "your wife…" I shook my head upon remembering what Sasuke said a while ago…
Ugly, huh?
So as he—and his attitude.
I flashed a sure-death glare at him but it doesn't seem to work. "Why are you here?!" I tried to make my voice bigger and sound terrifying but he just ignored it and sat next to me.
I moved quickly away from him and he looked at me with his usual blank expression. He looked away and lent something to me.
My pencil case.
I looked at him blankly with questioning eyes. He turned his head to face me. "You forgot to bring this stuff…" he said then looked away again, the pencil case still on his hand.
I smiled secretly.
So this delinquent and richie-bastard Uchiha Sasuke is a kind person somehow… I accepted the pencil case and smiled at him. He's not as bad as I thought.
I get my marker out of the pencil case and told him with a smile that I do prefer a girl so I'll draw a girl's face on the egg.
"Make it a boy." He said flatly.
A boy?
"But I do like a girl, Sasuke!" I insisted! I'm the mother so I'll be the one to choose… he looked at me and flashed a glare. "Make it a boy." It's a command.
The ever-kind angel-like Uchiha Sasuke 11.26 seconds ago became a monster in a matter of seconds! Now he's going to start the fight again.
"It will be great if it will be a girl… we can put some accessories and—"
"An egg doesn't need accessories. Make it a boy." My veins started to twitch but I came up with an idea. "Let's decide with the help of a coin…"
I pulled out a coin from my purse and talked. He just stared at me like a dumb old man. God! Let him eat grass!
"Okay. So if it's a head, I'll win. If it's a tail, then you've won." I said with a smile. I know a technique for me to win… I'll just throw it with the head on display without flipping it!
I threw it as high as I could and watched it land with a smile but on my surprise, I saw him stand and kicked the small helpless poor coin. My eyes grew wide and angrily shouted. "Hey! Why did you kick the coin?!"
He glared "Toss coin but you didn't even flip it." I moaned out an "Hmp!" and looked at the coin. Oh well guess what had happened.
"I won. It's a boy then." He said with a mocking smirk at me. I held the egg protectively in my hands and moved it away from him. "It's not valid!" I claimed.
I pulled out the Muchaha's Muumuu guide for boys pocket version and turned on page 16. "Women learn to talk earlier than men so it should be a girl!"
He raised an eyebrow and turned around for a while. When he faced me he smirked and said "Men are stronger than women. Nearly twice of our body is devoted to muscle tissues."
"Girls display better manual dexterity!"
"Boy's main internal organs are larger and their bone structure are more massive." He said. As if an egg baby will have a bone!
I look for more facts but ran out so I turned to page 32. "We have more acute verbal skills!" I said proudly.
He paused for a while and walked away a few steps. He turned to face me and said that "Men's brain is bigger by about 5oz."
I smirked. That's what I've been waiting for! It's written on page 33! I smirked and told him "That's why you find using the whole brain at any one time more exhausting!" then I laughed. Wow! This book is really great!
I saw him flinch. He probably ran out of words… "We can run faster." He said. "How come?" I asked.
He smirked. "We don't have airbags on the front seat." I didn't get it. What's the connection?!
"It should be a boy." He commanded. As if I'll listen.
I put the egg away and said that I must be a girl coz girls rock! (Yeah! We rock!!!)
He tried to get the egg from me. He's tall compared to me so everytime I'll try to put the egg up in my hand, close encounters happen that the nearly get it. When I can't think of anything to do, I dropped the egg on my blouse accidentally. (I mean inside my blouse…)
He put his hand inside my blouse and stopped.
SILENCE
I don't really know what had happened but let's see… I was sitting on a bench with my body slanted and my left hand supporting at the back, he's in front of me… slanted towards me.
His eyes were blank.
I trailed his right arm up to his hand then onto my…
Okay. That's it. His hand is inside my blouse holding something.
Chirp! Chirp!
I blinked.
He blinked and let his hand get the egg as quickly as he could and sat quietly with a straight body. "Hn." I heard him say. I grasped my blouse close to my body while liters of blood are rushing on my face!
I want to shout!!!
My virginity!!!
It's gone!!!!
It's gone!!!!!
He had just touched my… Oh God!!!! Just let a big fissure appear under this bench and let me fall into it! I looked at him with narrowed eyes and suddenly, when he looked back, I just want to disappear!!!
Grrrr!!!
But wait.
I think he didn't notice that he touched something because he didn't react so I regain my composure and pretended that nothing happened.
He started to draw a sleeping baby on the egg. By the mean time, I can't complain that he should make it a girl because I think I swallowed my tongue!
When he finished doing it, "His name will be Kouhei."
"What?" at last, I spoke after how many years of silence! Kouhei? Jeez… lame naming sense…! (but actually it's cute… but I do insist that it must be Shinn!!!)
"I insist it should be Shinn!" Hell yeah! My crush Shinn Asuka from the anime Gundam Seed Destiny! He's such a cool dude! I watch his show every weekend!
"Lame…" he hissed. What's lame about Shinn?! "It can be Athrun if you like…" I suggested.
"It will be Kouhei." He insisted. He's really pissing me. My eyes flashed once more and I walked several meters away from him and wrote something. He just stared at me blankly. I smirked when I went back and proudly showed him that I already wrote the name Shinn on the form.
Hahahahahahaha!!!!
I laughed triumphantly.
"Hn." He said and put the egg back on the box. "I'll be leaving then…" he said then he turned around. His back facing me. I'm going to get the egg when I heard him say something.
"Your airbag is flat dear."
I flinched. Steam came out from my ears and I pulled my shoe and threw it to him. he started to run and caught my shoe and disappeared in my sight so quickly.
I looked at my feet. I have no shoes at all. How can I walk now?
I sighed and grasped my blouse. Is it my fault that I was asleep when God showered some blessings for the so-called "Airbags?!!!"
I blushed. It isn't my fault.
It really is not.
I looked at Shinn (referring the egg)
I think it will be better if it was named after him or after me. Saskura? Saksuke? Cute. What a combination but it's such a shame to have my name with his name! I don't want to be the mother of his child!
He harassed me!!!!
Tch. I looked at then egg once more and I'm going to crush it but when I saw Shinn's sleeping cute face… the egg's eyes were closed and he put a pair of blush on the cheeks…
I can't crush a helpless egg like that!
I sat on the bench and closed my eyes.
Let me eat grass…
I touched Shinn and sighed.
It is really the egg to blame.

Wednesday
I walked home yesterday in just socks on my feet! Believe that?! That Uchiha-teme offered me to have a ride on his Ferrari or I'll be walking home in just my socks. I chose to walk home than thank him for bullying me after a ride home.
Jeez… just wait and I'll make sure, I'll hang him upside down on the school's rooftop.
I came to school today in rubber shoes… you know, sneakers. I don't have enough money to buy a pair of school shoes so I'll just wait for him to return it today. I hope he'll remember.
I looked at my chest and noticed that it's swelling!!! Whaaaaaa!!!! Uchiha-teme's cursed hand had touched it so it swelled!!!!
I tried to confront him and let him 'baby-sit' Shinn but when I stood in front of him, he just snubbed me and pretended not to hear me!
I yelled at him and he just stared at my chest. What a perv! I wish his hand that touched my chest will swell too! (as well as his brain!)
Shinn still sleeping. No sign of any attempt to wake up. (As if he will)

Thursday
Came to school late so I was sent at the Guidance councilor's office... (Not because of tardiness but because I am wearing a sneakers!)
Uchiha-teme, unfortunately, the assumed-father of my egg child, just stared at me blankly (and on my sneakers) when I entered the classroom.
What the hell is he staring at? He's the main reason why I was sent on the guidance office!!!! I sat on my chair with poise so that it will not be too obvious that I'm embarrassed but I'll make sure that one day, I'll make my revenge on that richie-bastard!
I'll make him wear high heels on school!!!!
But a good thing had happened today! His hand is swelling! Hahahaha!!!! What a victory! That serves you right, perv chicken!
Shinn still sleeping, no cries, no wails. Good baby!
November 30, 2007
Friday
We had an arrangement that if he'll not bring my shoes back, I'll rip Shinn! But the threat didn't affect him he said "Okay, rip him and make him a scrambled egg and your grades will turn upside down." Believe that?! He's a merciless, heartless father!!!! It's okay for him to make his son a scrambled egg!
Something horrible had reached my ears! Guess what? The first summative exam will be this December 6, 7, and 8!!! I can't believe it! Oh God!!! Grass! Grass! Let me eat grass than to take exam on math and physics!!!!
I asked Tenten if she could teach me but she said that for this grading, there will be a tutor assigned to each one of us. It will be done by draw lots. I smiled. At least the teachers are concerned about student's welfare!
I hope it will be Tenten or Neji-kun. Eh?
Neji-kun? (As if we're close…) but you know, since that last encounter with him, I find him charming and kind. I looked at the Chicken, not like him.
It's my turn to pick one and when everybody is finished, we opened the small piece of paper and my eyes grew wide.
What?!
Grass!! Grass!!! Let me eat grass!!!!
Oh c'mon! Fate must be kidding!
I looked at the person who will be my tutor for the remaining grading…
That perverted chicken!
I dropped my head on my desk that made a loud thud. I wish that loud thud will shake my head so that my math skills will improve and I'll be in no need for a tutor!
"Okay so I know each of you has a specialty subject where you excel so that will be the one you'll teach to your partner." Tsunade-sensei said. I like to pull a knife from the school kitchen and stab Sasuke! he glared at me as if saying "Hn, you don't have any specialty subject."
I glared at him. "Hn your face!" I hissed.
Grrrrrrrrawl! This is what you call bad luck!!!!
During dismissal, while cleaning the classroom, I asked him for my shoes. He just stared at me and pretended that he has no idea about it!!!
"Oi, I'm serious, I'll rip your spine out if you will not give me my shoes!" I said with a serious expression and big terrifying voice. I sent him deadly aura so that it will match my threat.
He packed his things and started to walk towards the door. He turned to face me with a smirk. I hate that smirk.
"Get it on my house tomorrow." He said. What?! On his house?! Not in a million years! "No. Bring it here on Monday." I said.
"Study sessions will start tomorrow at nine. See you there." With that, he left. I just stared at nowhere.
Grass! Grass! Let me eat grass!
He'll teach me about algebra, statistics and physics so if I'll not come, I'll flunk my exam. I packed my things hurriedly and lamely walked down the hallway… life sucks.
I looked at my purse. I sighed. After the weeklong fasting and abstinence for chocolates, it will only be wasted in commuting tomorrow.
I was the only one walking down the hallway so I talked to my son. "Nee, Shinn, isn't your father that rude to me?" I asked him, as if he'll answer.
I smiled bitterly. I have some plans on telling him that I like him but based on his attitudes towards me, the infatuation was sealed with hatred and irritation.
I saw someone leaning on the wall but I can't tell who it is so walked nearer. I stopped upon seeing who it is.
(Sakura Biyori- Mai Hoshimura)
juuroku de kimi to ai
hyakunen no koi wo shita ne
hirahira to maiochiru
sakura no hanabira no shita de
I cringed upon hearing the song play. Where the heck did that background song came from?! The boy opened his eyes and looked at me in slow motion. Whoah. I raised an eyebrow. What's happening?!
aitakute kakenuketa
hi no ataru kyuu na sakamichi ya
kouen no sumi futari no kage wa
ima mo kawaranu mama
"H-Hi Ne-Neji-ku-Neji-san!" I can say it straightly! I was supposed to say Neji-kun but I think he'll punch me if I did that… he'll think that I was 'feeling close' to him.
"Hello…" he said with a smile. The sunset's orange light passed through the glass window that made the ambience ethereal… I still hear the song play… I wonder where that song came from…
kimi to boku to "sakura biyori"
kaze ni yurete maimodoru
"Why are you walking alone? Going home now?" he asked. He looked at me straight to the eyes for 34.52 seconds! Time stopped that moment…
I want to melt!
Like a Double Dutch ice cream exposed to the afternoon sun!
I was cut off on my musing when I saw pink petals falling all around.
EH??!!
Where did those pink petals came from?! Hello?! It's late November and its WINTER!
Maybe it is what they call "The illusion of love!!!!" waaaah! really? sugoi! sugoi!
"Anno…" I felt blood rushing on my face… "Uhm…" speechless. Pink petals everywhere… the song continued to play… it's exactly what I have watched on films!
"I'll give you a ride home…" he said then started walking.
I froze. What?! Is this for real?!!!
Oh please, pinch me on my cheek! I must be dreaming!!!
Pink petals everywhere…
He is the school heartthrob Hyuuga Neji, son of one of the richest CEOs in Japan…
Handsome…
Almost perfect.
He, Hyuuga Neji...
...will give me a ride home.
Wow.
marude nagai yume kara sameta you ni
miageta saki wa momo-iro no sora
I watched his back as he walked.
I blushed.
Pink petals everywhere…
The song's melody echoed through my head.
I changed my mind.
"Arigato!" I said while I chased his pace.
I saw the last petal of cherry blossom fell.
Goodbye, chicken-teme!
He's much more a gentleman than you…
He'll not keep my black shoes.
He'll not touch my… never mind…
I changed my mind.
I like Hyuuga Neji now.
Notes: Nee… tsk! Tsk! Sasuke's loss is Neji's gain. What do you think will happen next?! I smell TROUBLE… really… hehehe…
If you want something to ask or say, you can type it with in your review or you can send a private message to me. I'll be glad to hear it from you!
Thanks for reading!
Ja ne!
