Chapter 10 : Kevin's dilemma
Yoko was leading to her room when she noticed the familiar shadow at the balcony. She approached the door silently and rested back against the edge. "What you're doing there, big guy?" Kevin slowly turned around with the cigarette clipped between his fingers. "Don't bother me here; just go back to your room. You're going to start your first day tomorrow, right?" he replied casually.
She nodded slowly and then stepped toward the balcony fence beside him. She landed her butt on it and swung her slender legs over the floor. Kevin just only eyed at her immature behavior and said nothing. He continued smoking and then gazed toward the cold ocean in front them. "Just go to sleep, it's late now," he remarked without glancing at her. "No need to worry bout me. It has nothing to do with you," she replied and gazed away. "If you don't wanna me to worry bout you, why you came here, kiddo?" he frowned, slightly annoyed.
She hesitantly looked at his regret eyes; Kevin was rarely to be found like this. This almost surprising her "I-I'm just wanna to get some fresh air...like you," she stammered and looked away. He raised his eyebrow, thinking that must be her fraud to cover her curiousness about his currently feeling. "Don't pretending that I don't know what you're thinking about, kiddo. I know what you want of," he added and blew out the smoke from his mouth. She dodged her face, tried to avoid from sniffing the annoying scent. She coughed a bit and fanned it away "It wasn't the fresh air that you want, isn't it? So I gave you this," he giggled and then moved a bit from her, understood her uncomfortable situation.
Yoko snorted and then turned her body away from him 'Asshole!' "I hate guy who like to piss off everybody around him," she softly said, sarcastically. Kevin heard the sneered but he only kept silence. He still felt vexed with what happened between them in an hour ago but that was a silly fight. Somehow, he thought he was very childish at the moment; crazily fought with this petite young girl. The only choice left is he needs to forget everything happened before this; he didn't want this rivalry to be lasting.
Yoko kept silence to herself and slightly trembled from the coldness. She hugged herself and rubbed her thin arms. Kevin smirked toward her, as he gazed front "Its cold out here, shorty. Better go," he mumbled. "Mind your own business! I wasn't here because of you," she snorted. Her sweater was not sufficient to keep the warmness and she continued rubbing her arms. She shivered and her teeth slightly collided. Kevin shook his head, wondering the stupidity of her. He threw away the cigarette stump and then taken off his jacket.
She slightly stunned when he wore his leather jacket around her. Yoko quickly stared at him with a confusing look but his eyes didn't meet her. "Why you-" "Hm? What?" he looked up and she choked off. "What you're going to tell me?" he demanded but she only shook her head. "Nothing... thanks. I don't need this," she raised her hands between them. He shrugged off "You're wanted to stay outside so I let you wear this. I'm going in, don't be too long, k," said Kevin before he walked away. Yoko frowned and hesitantly to call back.
"Um...Kevin!" he turned back as he reached the doorway "Huh? What?" Yoko took a deep breath, collecting all of her courage to speak out her mind. "Do... Do you really happy with them? I-I mean George and Cindy," she stammered and then gazed away, ashamed with her sudden question. "That's the thing that distracting your mind?" he crossed his arms and leaned against the door's edge. "Sorry...I shouldn't asked you bout that. I'm not aiming to peep on you," she said and jumped down from the fence. The jacket falls down covering her petite body. "Hey, you aren't interrupting me anyway. Actually... I-"
"You like her, aren't you," Yoko snapped off. Kevin sighed and walked back to where he been. He silenced for a while, looked onward. She tried to read his mind accordance from his face expression. 'Don't even try to lie with me, Kevin.'
"That's the old story, Yoko," he muttered, almost to himself. "That... that's made you angry, right?" she carefully asked, worried that will hurting him. "I guess... perhaps, everyone ever to adoring someone. Don't you think?" he gave an insincerity smiled. She turned to get silenced and then she slightly shook her head. "Not all of us, I don't..." she exclaimed, almost whispering. He raised his eyebrow "Huh? What the hell with David?" She gave a quick glanced and then smiled slightly. Kevin frowned with her mysterious smiled. He was trying to figure out the meaning from it, could it be she was trying to keep the secret away from him.
"That may tell a thousand meanings...Don't say that you've freak out yourself, little girl," she looked confusedly at him. "Pardon?" Kevin crossed his cold arms and then rested back. "I meant, you've changed to someone abnormal like Les..." he replied without looking down at her. She chuckled and joined by his side. "Why you're laughing?" he demanded, their side arms touched but the twosome didn't ever think to separate the closeness.
"Sometime, you're worrying something that impossible...Thanks for the attention, Kevin. I'm still the way I am, no worry," she stopped laughing but the sweet smile still created from her lips.
"I'm just felt curious. Since you smiled at me and didn't answer me, I'm started to think that you've became insane. Did he's the only guy that...," he silenced, unable to utter out the words. "Crush? Love? Did you mean that? In fact, I'm learning to forget my bad memories, Kevin. He's my past, Alyssa won and I'm lost," she explained and brokenly smiled. "Glad to hear that, you've changed...what the past can do with us? Am I right?" he looked intently on her and she slowly nodded to show her agreement. "We've done a good job, right?" he asked, gazed front. Yoko viewed peculiarly at him "What do you meant?" "Brought them back together like a cupid!" he exclaimed and changed his glanced to her. "Yeah...maybe we can open this service for anyone out there. Outbreak cupid, sounds nice hm?" She chuckled and Kevin joined her. "You could be kidding right? I'm not going to open this stupid service in my house," he laughed almost to himself. "Hey, I'm just kidding! There's no way we get involve with this because we hate each other," she added.
"Yep, that's right. But bear in mind that we need to keep in touch all the time. Would you?" he demanded, wanted the reply from her. "Okay, we deal. Just hoping everything will be always fine. Gambatte! Gambatte!" she raised her knuckle. "Huh? What's that mean?" He asked stupidly. "Just some sort of motivation word, like do your best!" she smiled childishly and then turned away.
They stayed in uneasiness silenced for a moment and looked away from each other. Kevin coughed out a little bit and sometimes he glanced hesitantly on her. Yoko was still in her own position, she shuddered and the cold breath continuously blew out from her mouth. "Kevin, do you mind if I ask you?" He immediately stared on her "No, what is it, Yoko?"
"W-Why you're always flirting?" she asked, the shakiness inside her soft voice. He only gazed away from her and said nothing. She can scent the restless from him and she tried to correcting the mistake from the sudden question "Actually...I'm asking bout your life's aim. Why you don't stop flirting? Aren't you do have any feeling to think seriously bout companionship? I-I mean get marry." "None your business, kiddo" he lazily replied, bored. "I didn't mean to hurt your feeling. I'm just asking you, just a stupid question. Hope you don't bother with that," she exclaimed. "I choose to be like that, more independent and safe," he retorted and moved away.
"B-But have you ever feeling bout that? Even once? George, Cindy even David, they-" He snapped her "Too much question! Frankly speaking I hate that, Yoko Suzuki." "I'm sorry if I'm messing up your brain but... If me, I would like to find someone who can truly love me and look after me. Knowing someone out there misses you and loves you, Isn't its sweet? Maybe you don't understand this cause you're flirty," she replied and then held her hands together.
He only tended to give a slightly smiled and gazed back toward her. Yoko frowned and then took a several steps ahead "Why you smiling?" "That's really cute, Yoko," he retorted and grinned. "Are you taunting on me?" she growled, started to get angry with his unserious manner. She snorted and turned away from him, crossed her arms. "Nop! Hey, I'm just kidding. Don't be mad," he said and rubbed the top of her head. Yoko shoved his hands and tried to walk out from there.
Kevin quickly caught her wrist and dragged her toward him. Yoko slightly yelped and found his arm landed on her shoulder. He grinned as he gazed on her face. She blinked weirdly, wondering the craziness of his mind. "Since you've forgotten David and being a virginal girl for 23 years, would you like to marry me? In case I don't have anyone to ask for," he teased and winked once. Yoko shivered and rolled her eyes "You? Eww...You make me wanna puke! Get off me! You're out of my list," she struggled herself escaping from him but Kevin still gripped her. "Hey! I'll take charge on you. I promise to be a nice hubby, will you?" he added and laughed. "No way! I said no way! You might be have STD. He's mustn't you," she shrieked and then taken off his jacket and put it on his face. She quickly rushed out from there to her room while he grabbed down the jacket from his face "Damn it!"

10 January 2002
Dear diary,
Yawn... I'm too exhausted since I ran away from the pervert cop. I wasn't aiming to confront him bout his marital status but... I'm just lil' bit considering bout his life. How he'll be going through this alone? I knew he doesn't have anyone except us, his outbreak friends. His family, has been died in Raccoon City, such an ironically tragedy. Sometimes, I think there's no way to live without somebody by your side even I'm usually trying to fake it out, maybe...Kevin too. Could it be his bitches like to gain some fun from his wealthy, I doubt they don't take seriously involve in the relationship. Should I fine someone that matches him? Damn! What craziness thought! I'm not going to be his wedding planner! I should stop thinking bout this...but why I care so much? Me? Oh God! There's no way I can be his...ah! This really nuts! Whatever it is, I'll be always be average for this whole year and keep my own problem away from Kevin. I'll be starting my new class tomorrow, need to go sleep. Ok Bye!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kevin was dealing with the cards in front him. He grabbed the bottle of the half beer and sipped from it, his eyes never broke the focused on the cards. After successfully accomplished the murdered case, his chief has prized him with a ten days break. He had been waiting for so long to get this long relaxing break but now... he felt bored, actually too bore. He didn't know how to reduce the boredom inside him except playing poker himself alone in the big house.
Should I go to Claudia's house? No! She will chase me out. Kevin reminded the third night before Christmas, they had been fighting at each other. She accused him by trying to abandon her. Actually, she was still mad with the call accident. She always threatened him to ambush Yoko but... the more he tried to stop her; the revenge and jealousy became stronger. So? The conclusion is forgetting it!
Sometime, he thought that he lost everyone that he loves. There's no one desire to share his happiness since his family's death even his girlfriend. Normally, he pretended to be cool and jovial but somehow, he miss something that he can't describe... that's doesn't mean he is a sentimental man but every human needs it. Something that makes him complete... something but what it is? Weirdo... Kevin used to be known as a less care type guy, but since after the years... might be he changed a little bit to someone with a full responsibility, not solely for him but everyone around him. Will he care?
He stretched his neck and arms, gazed exhaustedly on the cards. Kevin unthinkably tossed away the cards and rested back. "Shit! What is it now?" he muttered under his breathe and slowly turned his viewed to the large window near him. It still winter at the outside, in the early of January. He wondered how he could spend the rest of his break in the cold weather like this instead of go to the bar and have some fun with a hot chick.
Yoko wasn't there. She was busily having her college time with her friends. That's all that he knew about her daily routine...who's her friends? That nerdy girl is very secretive plus he never cares of what she's up to. Heck if he knew everything bout her. Seemed that girl don't have many close friend except Mimiko, the very trustworthy one. Maybe she trusts her more than her outbreak friends.
Sometimes, he felt lonely without her...Arrgh... what a damn feeling! Could it be if she was around, he would ask her having a basketball match or playing poker together? But Yoko hate playing card even to sit closely near him. "Sorta like an allergy, hm?"
"Damn! This suck! What should I do?" Kevin cursed, almost whispering. He gazed front and widened his arms against the couch. "Should I sing a merry go around here? Huh...I'm getting nuts," he exclaimed and then rose up from there. He traveled up stair to lead himself to his room. Kevin turned his doorknob with his eyes glanced hesitantly at Yoko's door back him. He suddenly turned back, ignored his previous action and gave a full attention at the girl's bedroom in front him. "It'll be more fun in there... sorry little girl, I may break my promise," he creased his eyebrow and evilly smirked.
He walked toward her room, impatiently to see the treasure inside. The door is unlocked as he turned the knob and he poked in his head. "Hello... anybody home... you there, miss shorty? I'm having a short visit here, helloooo..." he crazily said he stepped into the room. Grinning like a birthday boy, Kevin immediately plunged himself onto her bed and laid comfortably "Whoops!". "I'm not thinking to seduce you little girl but I'm only wanna to feel your bed. ...emmm...Whatta fresh scent!" he exclaimed and sniffed deeply her fragrance that sticks on it.
'This makes me feel younger... reminds me in my high school. Always dreaming to get nakedly on virgin's bed but I'm not planning to get nude here. Don't want to scare her,' he grabbed her second pillow and hugged it against his chest. "Since you're not here... I could do anything or explore anything that I want, honey!" Kevin announced and raised a bit his body toward the bookshelf near the bed.
He randomly chosen the books and brought them onto the bed. Kevin opened the book and read down the contents "Sorta like a biology things...George might understand this. Boring stuff!" he bored and tossed it away. He reached another one "Not my taste!" Kevin reached back the shelf and took out several comics. "I used to love this," he remarked as he reminded his childhood days.
He laid back and opened each of the pages "Japanese girl's comic...holy shit! Is there any English comic, anyway?" he threw it away and grabbed another comic. "What's this? Hmm.. . Death note, interesting! Great! It's in English," he read the comic enthusiastically and laid calmly on the bed.
After a moment, Kevin felt a slight slumbered and covered the comic on his face. He never knew how long he got sleep but hopefully Yoko wouldn't figure him out in there.
