Summers mystery kiss, chapter four
"Stupid kid…" I mumbled to myself, grabbing the bathroom towel and rubbing it violently over my own long ash blond hair. Being back inside the hotel room calmed me slightly, feeling a little more comfortable…but with the acknowledge that that strange boy, Morinaga, is still out there, chatting to my mum as if they were best friends…creeps me out!
I made my way into the living room and slumped down on the sofa with a loud sigh,
"What is taking that woman so long…?" I mumbled to myself, curling my damp hair with my fingers in anticipation, when abruptly the door from one of the bedrooms creaked open, and Tomoe came trudging unenthusiastically out from the room, rubbing the tiredness out of his yellow eyes.
I managed to mumble a simple 'hello' which suddenly set Tomoe out of his sleepy daze, and into a hyper happy mood—completely the opposite to what I'm feeling at this moment in time.
Tomoe abruptly rushed over to me, his tiny arms wide open and legs moving at a fast pace; ready to pace into a big hug…and that's exactly what he did. The petite body of my little bro jumped up into the air and fell straight onto me on the sofa. I yelped out from the sharp pain of his bony elbow stabbing straight into my stomach,
"Tomoe! Watch it!" I groaned in pain, quickly moving his elbow,
"Oh…sorry Souichi Nii-san…have you got the food for me and Kanako?" Tomoe asked, his big girly eyes gleaming prettily,
"Erm…no, something came up, and I couldn't get the food…" I mumbled, grabbing back the towel which was knocked off by Tomoe's hug. All of a suddenly, out of the blue Tomoe's eyes became watery, and tears began to flow down his beautiful little face, "Tomoe?" I gasped, quickly wiping away is streaming tears, "Why are you crying you BAKA?" I yelled,
"B-but the food…I'm hungry…!" Tomoe cried. I face palmed myself,
"You're an idiot you know that." I moaned, patting the silly boy crying on my lap.
A couple of moments later the boy finally calmed down, and stood back up, allowing me to move around once more. Tomoe perked his head up and looked around worriedly,
"Where's mommy?" Tomoe asked,
"The last time I saw her, was outside just now, she was talking to—" I stopped. My mother was talking to…Morinaga.
I made my way over to the hotel window, and peered down to the entrance of the hotel. My mother and that weird boy Morinaga was still standing down there chatting. Not only chatting, but laughing, and smiling…mum hasn't looked that happy with someone before, and especially with Morinaga being a stranger! I guess I have to give that Morinaga credit for making my mum smile…because I tell you; it is pretty hard making her to smile. She's like me, cruel, selfish, nasty when needs to be, tough on love and gives dad a right old beating when he's done something wrong. Even though she doesn't show it in front of Morinaga, she is truly me at heart…well I say she's like me, what I'm meant to say is I'm her. But I don't act all nice in front of people though, I'm not that strange.
Finally it looked as if Mum was saying her goodbyes, and turned into the hotel entrance. As Morinaga walked away into the distance, he stopped suddenly and turned around and scanned the hotel windows…when abruptly stopped when seeing my face peering at him. The happy sod waved cheerfully with a big grin of his silly little face. And in a huff I closed the curtains and turned around, arms crossed in a tantrum matter.
Moments later, mum came through the door with a sparkle in her big yellow eyes,
"That Morinaga is one adorable kid." She sighed, putting her umbrella down by the door with a grin still glued on her pretty face,
"Not really…" I huffed. My mother, Hana Tatsumi, turned to me with sharp eyes,
"Yes he is, and how rude were you to storm off like you did! Huh Souichi!" snapped Hana,
"Hey it wasn't my fault that you were going to invite a random stranger inside! It's weird—"
"You're weird." Hana moaned, half laughing. I crossed my arms, knowing a fight was going to rise between both the Tatsumi relatives…
"Look Souichi, I seriously want you to understand that Morinaga is a great start for you getting friends for once in your life." She said enthusiastically,
"What if I don't want a friend?" I groaned,
"Everybody needs a friend baka." She groaned back,
"No not me."
"Well…if not a friend then…how about a boyfriend…?" Hana asked, her shifty eyes locked straight on mine, as I froze intensely,
"WHAT!" I roared, causing Tomoe to cry in the other room from the fright, but none of us really took notice since that kid is always fricking crying.
Hana nodded, looking purely serious,
"Yes, how about thinking about going out with Morinaga…you know, once you get to know him of course." She sighed, giving up and storming off into the living room to take care of the crying child. I followed her straight into the living room, anger rising,
"Mum I'm not a fricking fag!" I shouted,
"Language, fucking hell…" Hana moaned,
"Language? Talk about yourself! You swear like a sailor." I hissed,
"And so what if I do?" Hana placed Tomoe down on the couch and turned around to face me again,
"Look Souichi…I know your against homosexuality and is a right old arse when point blankly I can't understand how you'll get someone with a personality like this—"
"I get my personality from you." I groaned,
"Well what ever…but take this opportunity for once in your life to find someone—"
"Mum I'm only ten!" I hissed,
"Could you stop interrupting me?" when she saw me look away in annoyance she took it as a chance to carry on, "But tomorrow me and Morinaga-kun have arranged a play date for you too." I went to argue but she quickly carried on, "you two have more things in common than you think…and I don't want any word that is bad coming out of your mouth of yours, you got it?"
"…fine…"
"Good! Glad to hear it….now go out and get the kids some food, they seem to be hungry." She sighed, laughing evilly when she heard my curses as she walked away,
"REALLY?"
Sorry it was a little short, but I just had to have that chapter were Souichi is so powerless towards his mum :')
ahah thank you for telling Hana's real name...I felt a little silly in forgotting her name. As yes her wonderful personality is where the tyrant son gets his haha :3 His dad is completely the opposite to Souichi dont you think? (from the manga) So where else would our Tyrant get his personality :3
Please review :D since the next chapter is gonna be cute... :D :3
