Sea Side Breeze
Chapter Nine
Notes and disclaimers: Told you there would be updates! Ha ha, am I not the greatest? On with it! And here is the new formatted one of this chapter, I really don't know why it messed up. Anyway, sorry to people who read this: It must not have been fun. ******************************************************** I sat huddled on my bed letting the sea air bath me after Haruka had left. I kept wishing that she had stayed, that I had made her stay. I wanted her to hug, me I wanted someone.
Maybe I was fooling myself by saying Haruka would remain only my friend and ally during this whole ordeal. After all, that was what I most needed. Someone who I could count on and run to when I needed to. And so far Haruka had been all that and more.
I covered my earswhen the phone rang. I was getting so tired of the phone. I thought for a moment about running in there and ripping the cord out of the wall but I didn't. I let it ring a few more times then finally went picked it up.
"Michiru, darling." My aunt. "Jordan is over here with me and were making diner. I decided that it would be rude if we didn't invite you. So, I am. Are you busy?"
"No. I'll um, be right over." My hand was shaking as I hung the phone up. I shouldn't be so nervous. I was just going over for dinner and I was a big girl. I could manage and stick up for myself. After checking out my apperacnce I headed over to the big house.
As I walked in the back door and into the kitchen I instantly felt an air of hostility. Jordan turned from the pot she was stirring to give me a wicked grin. I wanted to leave. I walked through the kitchen and was surprised to see my mother sitting on the couch talking to my aunt. I stared for a moment until my mother told me to come sit by her. She gave me a hug.
"Michiru, it seems like such a long time since I saw you! But not that long was it. And not to worry, your father and I won't be here long. We were driving further up north and just decided to stop by."
I was relieved when she said that. The last thing I needed was her meddling with already tragic events. I smiled weakly and forced out a nice to see you. After some clattering in the kitchen Jordan called us into the dining area.
I sat down and looked around. I was so uncomfortable and scared. Jordan kept smiling in that way that made me want to hit her. Jordan carried out the plates and once she sat down everyone began to eat. I, on the other hand, barely touched my food.
"Michiru," Jordan said with too much sweetness. "Whatever is the matter? Is the something wrong with the food."
I struggled to make my voice just as sweet as hers. "No, of course not. I'm just not feeling well." I smiled a bit.
"What's the matter, are you feeling guilty?"
My mother looked at me. "Michiru, guiltily for what?"
"I don't know." I muttered and looked down at my plate.
"Did you have a fight with Haruka?" She gave me a wicked grin.
"Haruka," My mother said. "Who's Haruka?"
"Why," Jordan began. "Haruka is Michiru's.. well, actually I don't know what to call her, or is it him... It? Anyway, Haruka is Michiru *very* special someone."
My mother dropped her fork and I felt wave nausea. I started to breathe heavy and found I could barely breathe. I stood up and my plate fell to the floor. I called her some nasty things in Japanese liking the fact that she couldn't understand me then stormed out. I don't know how but when I woke up the next morning I was at Haruka's house, not mine. ******************************************************** La la.. Evilness! Now, if I can get the CD jacket out of the case I will give you a quote.
"And we stare each other down like victims in the grind. Probing all the weakness and hurt still left behind. And we cry the tears of pearls. We do it. Oh we do it." Savage Garden- Tears of Pearls
