Chapter 4: Change of mind
"Michi…ru?" The brown-eyed person softly said, enough for the two occupants to hear. Haruka recognized the person at the doorway and she just smiled at her.
"Hey, Kaoru what's wrong? You look like you've seen a ghost or something," Michiru teased.
"Uh...errmm... C-can I talk to you for a minute?" Kaoru did not bother to wait for Michiru's reply and pull her outside the room immediately.
Once they were outside, Kaoru could not contain her excitement anymore, she let out a suppressed shriek and giggle like a crazy lunatic in which Michiru finds amusing and scary at the same time. This craziness has to stop, she thought.
"Okay, okay now you're freaking me out with this crazy little act" she said as she grabs Kaoru's shoulders, "What's wrong with you, girl?"
"Who's that? Is she your roommate? What's her name?" the brunette bombarded Michiru with questions.
Michiru is confused for a moment and when her friend's questions sink in her jaw dropped "Don't tell me…"
-Flashback-
A few hours ago, after Michiru's third subject ended she decided to head to the cafeteria to grab something to eat when she bumped into her ex-roommate, Takenaga Kaoru, together with their two other friends.
"Hi Michiru!" a bubbly chubby woman greeted her
"Hey Shiori, how are you?" Michiru greeted back
"Still sexy and gorgeous!" Shiori said, posing like a sexy model in which Michiru and the other girl named, Maki, just laugh at their friend's antics.
"Oh by the way, I'm heading off to the cafeteria do you guys want to come?" she asked and gets a confirmation nod from the other two then she glanced at her ex-roommate whose mind seems to be in a faraway land.
[At the cafeteria]
"Say, Kaoru who have you met this time?" Maki asked sipping on her juice while, Shiori who is still munching on her sandwich just nod her head at the brunette's direction.
"I don't know but…" Still with a dreamy look on her face while holding a white hanky, sniffing it in the process and a small smile graced her face "I think she's the one and I feel like I won the lottery and hit the jackpot"
The three other girls in that table looked at each other with eyebrows raised.
"Hmm how so?" Michiru asked, propping her hand on the table.
"I don't know I feel like she understands me in a way that nobody can."
"What? Did I hear that right? Understand your blind side that nobody can see? Shiori said that surely earned a giggle and a laugh from Michiru, Kaoru and Maki.
"But how about that senior you cried for?" Michiru asked
"Don't dare talk about that person ever again, please! God, you sure know how to ruin my mood, Michiru" Kaoru sighed and give Michiru an annoying look.
The aquanette chuckled at the brunette's annoying face and decided to change the topic for her friend's sake and continued their chat about fashion and other girly stuffs.
-End of Flashback-
"Yes! She is the one I'm talking about earlier!" the brunette said as if Michiru just said the right answer to the million dollar question and continues "Do you think she's handsome?"
"Eeeh?" Michiru said, her face screaming 'are you kidding me?'
"uhmm I think we should exchange rooms what do you think?" Kaoru said still trying to convice Michiru that it is a good idea "Oh and my roommate is so quiet you'll think you're the only one in the room, you like quiet place right? She is the perfect roommate you want, Michiru!"
'Is she for real?' Michiru could not believe what she is hearing from her ex-roommate.
"By the way, what is her name?" the brunette said shaking her from her reverie.
"Huh? I-I don't know"
"What? Why didn't you ask her? Hurry up and ask her." Kaoru could not believe that her friend didn't bother to ask for her roommate's name but she's so persistent to know it so she pushed Michiru inside the room and finding the blonde on her table working on something.
"Hey" Kaoru sounding a bit nervous called the blonde's attention "Thank you about earlier"
Haruka stopped what she was doing and faced her roommate and the girl she met in her class "So, did you blow your nose on my hanky?" She asked grinning at the blushing brunette.
"O-of course I didn't!" Kaoru said nervously blushing and still fiddling with Michiru's hair "but I washed it already so I'll give it back to you tomorrow. By the way, I'm Kaoru" the aquanette rolls her eyes at her ex-roommate.
"Haruka"
"I'm Michiru" She said then she removed Kaoru's hand on her hair "and I'm not a matchmaking service" She flashed Haruka a fake smile and went back to her side of the room. The blonde just smirk to herself.
"So, what are you doing?" The tall brunette asked, looking at the scattered paper on Haruka's desk.
"Nothing, just composing some lyrics." Haruka pulls a sheet from her folder and gave it to the confused looking brunette. "Here you can have this"
"Really? For me?" The blonde just nod in confirmation then Kaoru read the lyrics "Wow, it's beautiful. What's the title for this one?"
"Oh that? It's called 'Ready to love you'."
Kaoru's jaw dropped and her face is blushing heavily, "You're ready to love me?" she said before her brain even processes it.
"No, silly that's the title I came up with" The tall blonde chuckled at the blushing brunette.
Michiru broke the sudden silence in the room, looked at her obviously love-struck ex-roommate, and popped her fantasy bubble, "Can you find your way to your room, Kao-ru-chan?" She said playfully and winking at her friend.
Kaoru shakes her head as if she was awaken from her beautiful nightmare, "I-I guess I should go now. Thanks for this, Haruka" she then slowly retreated to the door. Once outside, the brunette jumped for joy and hugged the poor paper.
==============O~O==============
Haruka just came back from her morning run with Aya. The two runners instantly clicked. They have talked about everything about themselves; they get to know each other and then eventually became close mostly because they have a lot in common. She found out that Aya is a year older than she is and that she is the eldest among her three siblings. She is taking up Education course because she likes Physical Education and wanting to become a teacher someday.
After cleaning up from their morning practice and a little detour to the nearby café, the two part ways.
When she reached her room, she found out that her 'evil landlady' roommate is still there and sleeping so soundly. She placed her take-outs on her table quietly, grabbed her towel, and laid out her uniform on her bed then head off to the bathroom to freshen up before going to her class.
Haruka took only a good 10-minute shower since she already took one earlier after her morning run with Aya. After changing clothes and preparing all her stuffs, she started to eat her breakfast that consists of a cup of hot coffee, three coffee buns and two chicken sandwiches.
Michiru's eyes slowly opened when she suddenly smelled an aroma of a coffee that wafted around the room, her stomach silently grumble. She rose from the bed and found the blonde culprit that is making her hungry that moment, bitting a huge piece of sandwich. She glared at the blonde who is obviously enjoying at her little torture of making her even more hungry and drool over the food. Instead, she grabs her towel on a nearby chair, immediately went to the bathroom, and then slammed the door.
She was annoyed to the blonde. She doesn't know but there is something with the blonde that's making her pissed and annoyed to say the least. Instead of thinking about that roommate of hers and making herself more annoyed, she then decided to end her shower and start preparing for her morning class. But as soon as she reached her bed, something in the middle of the room that divided hers and Haruka's space caught her attention, there laid on a book that serves as a tray, an uneaten piece of coffee bun, chicken sandwich and a surprisingly still full cup of hot coffee. Michiru noticed a little handwritten note under the coffee saying:
"The coffee bun and the sandwich are delicious, you should try it and I haven't drink the coffee yet ^_^"
A small smile crept to Michiru's face, the annoyance dissipate into thin air. Maybe the blonde isn't that bad at all she thought, 'I guess I should be a little kind and act civil towards her', she said to herself and started eating the food the blonde left for her.
