Hey minna-san. I'm so sorry to make you wait for this chapter. Oh I would like to thank for all your reviews. ^^ Anyway, enjoy the chapter!
After her club activities (Sket Club) that day, Himeko waits for Bossun outside the school gate. She didn't tells Kato about her assignment. If she does, Kato would probably murder him or worse. Stupid Yamanobe sensei!, she thought gritting her teeth. Why does he have to pair her with Bossun? Doesn't he knows that her relationship with Bossun is not and will never be the same EVER again? Seriously! Old people are so so slow.
About 5 minutes later, Bossun finally showed up. " Haha..summimasen! ( I'm sorry) I help Chuma sensei for clean up just now,"he said with a laugh walking towards Himeko. She gives him a sharp lightning glare. " Grrrrr….," she growls. " Let's just go and get this stupid assignment over it!," she said scornfully and starts walking leaving him behind.
Bossun sighs and follows her from behind. 'Yosh….I finally get a chance to talk to Himeko. But what should I said to her?' Bossun gulps nervously as they walk towards Bossun's apartment. It was nearly evening about 5 p.m. Bossun suggested they could finish the assignment the next day but Himeko strongly insisted that they need to start early.
They both go to the elevator in silence. There's no way Bossun can start a conversation with her when she keeps ignoring him and keeps her distance. "Tadaima! (I'm back)," Bossun called when he unlocks his apartment door. But there's no reply from his mother or Remi. The room is in complete darkness.
" That's strange," Bossun said aloud. " Where could they be at this hour," Bossun said to himself. " Oi Bossun!," Himeko called. " They left a note for you," she said handing a small piece of paper to him.
Bossun takes the note and reads it. It says :
Ne Oni-chan, I'm sleeping over at my friend's house. Oh Oka-san said she have meetings to attend and probably come home late in morning.
From Rumi
Bossun heart skips a beat when he finish reading the note. ' Does that mean, me and Himeko are alone,' he thought. Himeko piles all her books on the table in the living room. She wouldn't dare to go to Bossun's room since Saaya's is his girlfriend. They probably spend their time there when she's gone to Osaka.
" Alright Beagle let's start," she called and start writing. Bossun's face turns red with anger when she called him beagle. " Yeah..yeah..let's just start," he said annoyingly and sits beside Himeko. Both of them start doing their assignment about the China landscape thing. ( Boring!) They didn't talk much after 20 minutes have pass. They only talk when they exchange their idea and correcting each other mistakes.
Tired of the moment of silence, Bossun bangs his fist on the table, " What's the matter with you?!," Bossun roars as Himeko stared at him clearly surprise. "What do you mean what's wrong?," Himeko snaps harshly. Bossun grits his teeth and gives her a murderous glare. Himeko gulps because she never seen Bossun acts like this.
"You're dating Kato now huh," Bossun said bitterly. Himeko could feel a little bit of sadness in his voice. For a second there, she felt pity for him but when she thought better of it, he deserves it for cheating on her with Saaya. " Huh yeah," she sneered. " Why do you care? You have Saaya now aren't ya? You love her more until you decided to cheat on me ."
Himeko's words stab him like a knife. Yes he have Saaya. He loves her too and willing to do anything for her. But seeing Himeko with another person, especially when that person is Kato, is just too much from him to bear. " Yes I do love her," he admitted. " But my feelings for you…."he pause and hesitate. Himeko could see him gripping his mechanical pencil tightly.
'What does he feel about me? He loves Saaya right? Not me?,' Himeko wondered. Her questions answered when Bossun jumps on her and pins her on the floor. " I realise that I still loved you," he admitted looking down to her. Himeko is clearly surprise. She could feel her tears flowing out from her eyes like waterfall. " Liar!," she screamed as she struggles but Bossun's strength is just too much. " You traitor!,"she accused in her tears. " I won't believe any more of you lies you….."
Before Himeko finishes her sentences, Bossun kisses her softly stopping her from talking. Himeko's sobs even more. Is this a dream?,' she thought. ' It must be. I could feel Bossun's lips. It's the same lip I've kissed when we got warm and so soft. I really miss those lips.'
" No!," Himeko said between the kiss and pushed Bossun away after gathering her strength. " We shouldn't do this," she sobs. " You have Saaya and I have Kato. And I…I…I hate you!," she yelled. Bossun could feel his heart filled with guilt.
'What have I done,'he thought as he crawls towards Himeko. He tries to rub her hair but Himeko slaps his hands away. " Bossun…,"she sobbed. " Why don't I gather the information on the assignment while you do the writing," she suggested and starts packing her stuff slowly.
" Ah..yeah..," Bossun said looking away. He can't blame her. He feels awkward as she is after what he did. Himeko gives him a little smile and heads for the door leaving him there cursing himself.
" Daaammmmittt!," he screamed realising all his feelings.
