Chapter Ten: Kai's Problem
Disclaimer: I do not own the Vocaloids. But only the characters I create within the story.
Kai's P.O.V.
"What? You're a model now?" I asked Niki. She nodded slowly.
"Yeah, this old lady just walked up to me and gave me the card for the company." When she finished, she pulled a card out from her pocket. I took it and examined it from top to bottom.
"Seriously? You could do better." I said.
"Told ya." said Piku. She continued to drink her soda. I tossed the card back to Niki.
"Okay, you weren't forced to do this right?" She nodded. I nodded back. "I understand. You have my support." Suddenly, Piku slammed down her glass.
"WHAT? You actually approve of her becoming a model?!" she shouted loudly at me. Everyone around us stopped and stared. I shrugged in response. She sighed and drank the rest of the soda, not caring that people were watching her and giving her strange looks.
"Thanks guys. Sorry Piku." Piku turned away, not listening. Niki's face fell. Then, she got up and grabbed her bag. "Bye, I gotta head home." She waved good-bye and I waved back. Then she walked away. It became immediately silent when only me and Piku were alone.
"So," she suddenly said. "When are you going to ask her out?" I almost fell out of my seat when she said that. I looked at her, flabbergasted.
"What do you mean?" I exclaimed. And again, people stared at us. She looked at me directly in the eye.
"You know what I'm talking about. So who are you going to ask out? Niki or that girl you're always with when Niki isn't around." I stared at her. I blushed deep red and then looked down at my lap.
"How did you know? About Meika and Niki?" She nodded.
"So that's her name. And I know about you and Niki because you tend to stare at her when she isn't looking. And I also stalk you a lot?" I scooted away from her. "Oh don't worry, I haven't invaded your privacy." I sighed. "Yet." She finished with a devious grin and looked at my scarred face. She may be a bit younger than me, but younger kids can be scary. I just sighed, got up, and walked home with a good-bye to Piku. She didn't even bother to wave back, just a tiny nod. Typical Piku.
When I finally reached home, I just slumped on the couch. I closed my eyes and rested for a while. But then, the doorbell rang and I sprung up to my feet. I opened the door and almost gasped. Meika was standing right in front of me. I welcomed her in and she sat on my couch. "Why is Meika here? In my house?" I closed the door shut and sat down next to her. A few minutes passed without a sound. And then suddenly, Meika turned towards me and shouted, "I'm too addicted to drugs!" I gasped, because I didn't know Meika did drugs and because Meika didn't seem like a drug addict. And then, she started to cry, possibly ashamed of herself. I patted her back, thinking it would soothe her. I even tried to hug her, but she wouldn't stop.
Suddenly, I heard a soft clicking sound from outside my window. My eyes bulged wide as I saw who it was. Piku was right outside of my window. Taking pictures of me hugging Meika. To avoid further humiliation, I pushed Meika away and steadied her on the other side of the couch. She was snoring softly. "So she fell asleep. Oh good." More snapping of pictures from Piku's phone. When I looked out the window again, she had another grin on her face. She showed me her phone and I saw that it was sending. "The pictures." Then, she took off, running and laughing at her success. I chased after her, but she was too fast for me. She dodged into an intersection and when I was just about to follow her, a car appeared in front of me. And that was the end.
I woke up weakly from the loud beeping song next to me. I scanned the room I was in. "The hospital? Why the hospital?" I looked up when the door clicked open, in walked Niki. She looked at me once, and then ran over and embraced me. "I heard from Piku, she said she was sorry." She let go and I noticed she had a sad look in her eyes. For a moment there, I thought she was caring for me way too much for a friend caring for their best friend. But then, Meika walked into the room. "Oh shit." I gripped the sides of the hospital sheets. Meika walked over to me and planted a kiss on my forehead and asked if I was okay. I nodded. She smiled and stroked my head.
Suddenly, Niki cleared her throat, catching orur attention. For a second there, she seemed mad. "Ahem but there is no PDA allowed whenever I'm in a room." she said. "I'm too young." Meika looked at Niki and then she clasped her hands together!
"Oh my gosh! You're the upcoming model, Niki right? It's so great to meet you!" She shook Niki's tiny hands. Niki was shocked and frozen. She didn't move at all until Piku came in and scarred her by throwing her hands on Niki's shoulders. Niki shrieked and then rubbed her shoulders, with an evil little silver haired girl smiling innocently behind her. I smiled bit. Remember the old days when we were all like this, having fun. Meika held me close again and explained that I'll be in the hospital for quite a while so I'll have to wait a few days. I nodded and she gave me another kiss and walked out. When Niki was talking me, I noticed Piku shaking her head and sticking her tongue out at me. Somehow, that look made my heart ache.
I was finally out of the hospital. The doctors said I was fine and I could return home, but I must stay there for a few days. Meika promised to bring food and help out in my house for me. Piku secretly promised that she'll delete the images unless I let her treat me like a servant. Niki said that she'll bring the homework from school to me. I sighed as I lay back onto my bed. "I'm so happy I have such great friends." I closed my eyes and drifted into sleep.
The next day was Sunday so I walked out to get the mail. Along the way, I saw a black raven perching on my fence. I just ignored it went to get the mail. I took the mail out, but then suddenly, a biker came by and ran me over. My mail flying all over the place.
"Your second time in the hospital within a week." The doctor winced. "But you're lucky that your body is strong." But then his face fell. "But it won't be for so long. If you keep getting into these accidents, your bones will soon be crushed and maybe your muscles too." He sighed sadly. "And worst case scenario, you might die." I gasped, I didn't want to die. I still have a life to live! I shook my head but the winced in agony at the pain of sudden movement. The doctor shook his head. "Just stay home for a while. Never walk out until you have fully recovered." He left and I walked the same people, Meika, Niki, and my creepy friend Piku. They did the same hing as last time, embracing, weeping, and in Piku's case, taking pictures of Meiko and Niki hugging me. I have already gotten used to it so it didn't bother me so much.
But something has been bothering me ever since. "Why did I end up in the hospital twice? Is God punishing me? Maybe because of being a two-timer? Hell no, Piku couldn't have been right…Right?" I cupped my forehead in my hands, hoping I don't end up here again.
"I'm so sorry for you Mr. Kai. It's only been three weeks and you're here for your fourth time already. You're going to be broke soon. Money and bones." I didn't even dare to move, I was so broken that moving may break me down more. When the doctor left, I started crying. First, I crashed into a car, second, I got ran over by a biker, third, I got hit on the head by the heavy vase in my living room, and fourth, I fell of my wheelchair when I was on my way back home from the hospital. I cried and sobbed. "I'm going to die soon. I'm doomed to die. God, please spare me! Please….." I closed my eyes and slept, comforted by the sound of the heart monitor beeping.
A.N. Now this is a sad problem. Dying and feeling pain over and over. But I think that Kai is already used to the pain because he felt it too much times. That's bad. And sorry for not updating yesterday. I was busy with my other fan fic. But please review!
