Rendezvous: A Vocaloid Fanfiction (Chapter 9)
Written by Kairu Kobayashi
When my parents told me that my marriage partner was decided upon, I thought that I had no problems. Zero. With that, I left America and came back to Japan and continued my junior high.
"This is the son of the owner of ICL, Kamui Gakupo-sama, your marriage partner."
My eyes were not clear. At first I assumed that my eyes were at fault, so I excused myself for a while and took out my glasses.
"Uh—"
"Hey, Luka. Where's your greeting? You haven't said yours yet."
I was startled. Purple long hair tied up like a ponytail, violet eyes, thin eyebrows, punk fashion pieces. This doesn't seem to be a guy—this is a girl, right? Or not, maybe it's a yakuza guy pretending to be Kamui Gakupo! Gakupo doesn't look like this at all!
"T-this is…Gakupo?!"
My eyes became large white circles with a tiny dot in the middle of each. This wasn't the person I was expecting.
"From what I remember, you have short black hair, your eyebrows were thicker, and you wear coats, ties…those stuff!" I protested, but the person in question suddenly burst out laughing.
"Coats, ties, briefs?" he snorted. "I wear boxers now."
This guy here is my childhood friend. Well, I guess his personality hasn't changed at all, huh. Never seen him in years because of my stay in USA so probably that's the reason why I'm shocked to the bone. His appearance has changed 100%...minus the shape of his eyes (he can't change that unless he goes under plastic surgery). Well, besides the appearance, he's still 100% the person I know: arrogant, witty, and annoying.
"I'm not quite disappointed that you're my marriage partner, you know," he smiled.
"What I'm worrying about is…" I rushed to his side and whispered, "…if we DO get married, our children might be influenced by our bad personalities—kukuku!"
I laughed like a witched shortly after that.
Because my fiancée was a friend, I never thought twice agreeing but later on, one-by-one the disadvantages of this marriage crossed my mind.
"Sensei really is pretty," I smiled at Gakupo, who agreed with my statement. "Un, un! The other boys said so, too!"
"She's so pretty that I want to marry her~" I sighed as I closed my eyes.
"E-eh?! But sensei is a girl, you know! Two girls can't get married!" Gakupo rushed towards my seat and hit my head.
"One day, watch me Gakupo," I glared at him with a smirk, "I'll marry her one day!"
But Gakupo continued to hit my head. "NO! YOU CAN'T! IT'S STATED IN THE CONSTITUTION!"
It's back from our preschool days when I had a crush on our teacher.
Until now, I've always preferred women over men. And that's why I'm not protesting against this marriage because there are no strings attached. It's for the company; only that and that alone. After all, I can't marry anyone who's also a woman like me unless I go to a country that has legalized it already.
If there are no emotions involved, I can always have a love affair with consent from my spouse, and we can keep it from the outside world. That's it.
