Chapter five- when a good day becomes bad.
Storyline by Jump Kids
Yuna thought that she escape from the night spent with Marutan, Was the problem over or it the other string attach on it. Who know? And who is Mutsuki anyway. Strange character that popping out from my head
"Randoh, wake up" A soft whispers on Randoh ear. Randoh turned away from the whispering voice as he tried to get more sleep. Then a soft gentle breeze blows behind his ear, trying to call him to wake up.
"Not now, I am too tired. Marutan" Randoh asked. As he begin fall again in deep slumber, suddenly he felt something is wrong. He spoke his voice like a man at the moment ago, not female voice. He opened his eyes wide and body feel cold in all the sudden. Has the identity exposed to Marutan?
His cover is perfect sealed for so long and plus that he managed to escape the yesterday night. But why his voice changed in all the sudden.
"Honey, Are you okay" The soft gentle voice appears again, calling him to wake up. Then gentle pushes on Randoh's back that cause his body to rock front and back,
"Honey?" Randoh puzzled with that word and turn his back as he sees Rina sitting beside with a smile on her face. Randoh stunned for a moment, as he could not understand what is happening now.
"Morning." Rina greeted as she waiting him to greet her back. But what she sees is Randoh staring at her with his wide-open mouth, looking confuse. "Are you okay?" Rina looked a bit concern.
Randoh quickly check his body and noticed that he is in true form. A real man body and he quickly touched his face and being to rub it. He hoped that he is not a dream. He could not find anything attach in his face as he pressed both side of his cheek with his both hands. "I am back. A guy again." Randoh smiled and felt lucky that his true form return.
Rina begins to giggle as she wondered what is sweet Randoh doing. Making funny face in front of her. " Ah, sorry…" Randoh stopped his silly act but inside in his heart with joy right now. He returned his calm posture and greeted Rina.
"You going to late for work." Rina said with her gentle voice. "Work, what work?" Randoh confused. He really felt something is amiss
"Yes, today is the big for you. About the promotion that you say for a week now" Rina reminded him, shook her head as she wondered how he could forget about. Randoh has been excited for a week.
"Huh?" Randoh said as he realized it is a dream. He is sitting beside with Rina now and able talk to her in true guy form. It is the only time he has, even it is a dream. He prepared to tell about his love deepest feeling to her.
"Rina, I love you." That is the word that Randoh wanted to say one more time. He could not say it clearly when he met Rina in the school entrance in his true form. Randoh looked at Rina with muster all his gut to blurt his word.
"Rina, I wanted to say something." Randoh holding his sweetheart hand, he moves closer to Rina. ""Yes? Honey." Rina sit there, waiting for Randoh to say something.
"I am hungry. Rina" Randoh said it out.
"I forgot, I left your breakfast on the table. I will get it right away." Rina blushed as she entirely forgot about the breakfast. "Sorry," Rina quickly leave the room before Randoh could say anything.
"What the…Why did I say that?" Randoh made a big mistake. He wanted that three word. "I love you" but what he said is "I am hungry, Rina." He covered his head with a blanket as he letting his frustration. "Baka, Baka, Baka." He scolded himself to be such a coward, unable to say that three word. "Don't worry, cool down." Randoh closed his eyes, taking a big breath as he waiting Rina to come back.
"Honey, are you okay?" Rina asking as she pulled the blanket that covering Randoh head, wondering what is going on him. Rina looked a bit worry about strange Randoh behavior.
"Huh, nothing." Quickly Randoh returned his calm posture as he give another tries. Rina place the tray on the bed, just on top on Randoh's lap. "Eat before it become cold." Rina asked.
A steak for breakfast, inappropriate meal but Randoh seem don't has a fuss about as long that Rina cook it. Rina cuts the meat in piece and poke the meat with fork. She seem doing something that Randoh would embarrass later. Rina going to feed him as she lift the fork up and point on Randoh mouth.
"You don't have to it." Randoh felt a little blush
"Let me serve you. I know that it is being tough to support the family and the only thing I could is cooking and cleaning." Rina looked at him with a passionate look on her face.
"But… it is not that tough…"Randoh laughed silly as he begin scratching his head.
"Please…" Rina asked, as she wanted to do it.
Randoh had no choice but to give in Rina wishes. Randoh open his mouth.
"Why the meat taste so weird?" Yuna asked. Yuna opened her eyes and saw a young man with white apron uniform standing in front of her. Yuna noticed that her teeth sunk on the man arm. She accidentally bit that guy arm as she was dreaming of eating a steak.
"Sorry Miss, for disturbing" The man looked a bit shy.
"Who are you?" Yuna asked with a muffle voice.
"Ahh. I am the delivery guy from Akabane restaurant."
"Delivery guy…Akabane restaurant…" Yuna looked confused a bit, she didn't recall about ordering food in the morning. The man clearing his throat as letting his eyes signal to Yuna, to release his arm.
"Sorry, I am really sorry." Yuna apologies. The man nodded his head as he slowly pulls back his arm.
"I guess that you too hungry." The young man laughed a bit, covering his pain expression. "I am really sorry." Yuna grabbed his arm and looked the guy wound. There is a bite mark.
"It is okay, it is a small bite mark." The young man said coolly as if the pain didn't bother him at all. Then he used the injury arm to swipe gently his brown hair and smile at Yuna.
"Yeah, right. Acting cool or something." Yuna thought, knowing that most of the guy act cool in front of girl, even they had bear the pain. But she pretended not to know it, looked around to check on Marutan.
She spotted Marutan sitting alone on dining hall, busy eating her meal. "Maybe is Marutan did it. I promise her yesterday" Yuna shake her head silly as she forgets about it.
"Are you okay? Miss." The guy asked.
"Yeah, I am fine, sorry about the bite mark." Yuna apologies.
"There is nothing to it." The guy said it with his ego voice.
"I should pay the medical for you." Yuna busy search the money where she places it.
"Nothing to worry about it. Just forget the bill" The guy refused to accept Yuna money for the medical.
"Okay," Yuna stop her search, stopping her pretend act to look for the money. She was waiting for his answer. "Yup, as I predicted." Yuna said to her thought. The move is…
"My name is Mutsuki." The guy said his name as he tried to get acquaintance with Yuna. But in Yuna's response, she did said "Ah" as Yuna focus on Marutan for a while.
"Well, I didn't get your name. Except that your name is Ah?" Mutsuki joked around, tried to get some attention. Yuna shook her head with a little disappointed with lame joke as the guy pull.
"Yuna! And your name is Mutsuki. Right" Yuna gave her name as she tried to cut short the conversation. Mutsuki kept quiet for a moment, more toward on a stun mode. After Yuna answer that moment, he probably guessed that Yuna had no interest on him.
"Okay, nice to meet you." Mutsuki could say. Yuna nodded her head without answering him. "This will work." Yuna thought a perfect plan to make Mutsuki leave uncomfortable. Yuna showed a bit of sad and yet displeasure looks at him.
"I think that I have to leave." Mutsuki felt an unwelcome presence.
"Sure, Thanks for the delivering" Yuna politely said.
"See you around." Mutsuki make his move to the door.
"Okay, maybe" Yuna watched that guy leave the house.
Yuna lied on the sofa, thinking about new trouble coming in if Mutsuki didn't leave as sooner. Maybe she stuck in date with him or pestering with question about her. She knew this would come by looking Mutsuki act like a normal guy do, trying to make a friendship with a girl.
Marutan move toward Yuna and asking Yuna to join breakfast with her. Yuna sat up and wanted to ask her about yesterday incident. Probably she thinking about Marutan is still mad at Yuna. It is another problem that she needed to clear it out.
"Marutan, I am sorry. Leaving you alone in so sudden." Yuna explained to her.
"There is no need to. I was a little bit of pushy." Marutan replied with a smile. Yuna returned back with a smile, nothing to worry about anymore. She thought would hate Yuna but she seems okay by now."Come, let's eat together." Marutan asked.
"You go first, I will going you in a couple of minutes." Yuna said in her tired voice. She refused to leave the sofa. She hardly sleeps yesterday night because excitement and worry she had, plus she had to sleep on uncomfortable sofa for a night without a pillow.
"Come, is getting cold already." Marutan pulled Yuna arms to join her for breakfast. Yuna took her time a bit to leave her sleep area. She is dragging herself to the dining table. She looked surprise as she saw the food in the table.
There is sushi and two Unagi sets place on the table. "Wow, I never thought about these dish." Yuna gave a surprise answer, looking Marutan with an impress expression on her face
"Maybe, I am letting her in charge with food order." Yuna started to give a thought about it. It really helps her out with some burden. Maybe she could lazy around in the house and waiting patiently for the four days to over.
"Yuna, the food is cold now. Better start eating." Marutan asked
"Okay, By the way, it is look delicious." Yuna praised.
Marutan give a smile at for a moment only and return back on her expressionless face. She cut the eel meat in half and turn the meat around on her plate as if she playing with it. "What is it? Marutan, Are you okay." Yuna noticed.
"Really, I miss the old time with you." Marutan sighed. "The time we spent together even it a short while in school holiday"
"Then you disappear for a long time and without saying anything back when you return back." Marutan continued. Yuna stopped her meal, she knew as what she going to say but got it all wrong about not telling about Yuna return. How she know about Marutan existence as she is not the real Yuna.
"Well, we have time! Four days left, I bet we can have more fun." Yuna cheers up. "Doing some activity together, hang out around the town." Yuna said without any plan she planned so far but as long she didn't want see Marutan looking sad all the time.
"Really?" Marutan asked, return a smile.
"Yes" Yuna nodded.
"Can we start today?" Marutan came out a plan.
"What is it that you want today?"
"Cooking together, I miss your cooking. Remember the time we…" Marutan continues about the past.
Yuna froze for a moment as she heard Marutan mention about cooking. Yuna can't cook, she never hold a wok or a fry pan before. This is disastrous for her. "I don't have a ingredient to cook a dish. Maybe we made take away order for the time being " Yuna gave excuse, covering her weakness or her cover blow out.
"But I did some grocery in this morning." Marutan said, she show a white piece of paper. Yuna took the paper with a tremble hand and read the content and hoping this is not nightmare for her.
Then aloud scream echoing the house, a new problem appear into Yuna life. What kind of problem she facing now?
