Chapter 11: Reunion (part 2)
"Roxas, do you want to go somewhere?" the girl with black long hair asked the blonde beside him as they were walking to the convention.
"The bookstore. But Cloud said not to leave you so maybe I'll be going there later. I don't want to leave my responsibilities." The blonde kindly said and gave the girl a warming smile.
This made the girl stopped and chuckled.
The blonde stopped too and wondered by the girl's expression. "Hmm?"
"You sound like your big brother."
This made Roxas blushed and scratched his head.
"That's the bookstore you mentioned, right?" The girl pointed the store across them. "It seems like you want to go there now, the convention will be starting within an hour, we can go and check the bookstore if you like."
"Are you sure?"
"Anything for my future husband's little brother." The girl smiled to Roxas and this made the blonde smiled shyly. Roxas idolized the humbleness of this girl. It's no wonder that Cloud was deeply in love with her. He liked her for his big brother. He knew that Cloud wouldn't fail in choosing the right girl, in choosing Tifa Lockhart.
^O^
"I can't see! Hayner lower your head!" Riku shouted to Hayner and they were pushing with each other.
"Hey! No pushing!" Sora irritably said.
"They're going inside the bookstore! Move faster!" Riku commanded and they followed Roxas and Tifa.
^O^
They're going into the bookstore. The auburn thought as she was following (too) with Tifa. Nam, Selph… I'm sorry. The auburn sincerely apologized to her two best friends in her thoughts for she left them when she saw Tifa without telling.
^O^
"After we attend the convention, we'll check the bookstore." Namine said to Selph as they were walking to the event.
"And then we'll eat! Right Kai?" the brunette smiled behind and then was surprised when Kairi wasn't there. "Kai?"
"Where's Kairi?" the blonde said and they got rattled.
"Oh my gosh! Someone took her! Help! He-!" the brunette started to shout worriedly and then Namine covered her mouth.
"Selph! Calm down. You're overreacting too much."
Selphie calmed down. "Sorry…"
"Let's find her. Let's split up."
^O^
When Roxas and Tifa got inside the bookstore. The blonde immediately went to check some books there. Tifa on the other hand was scanning some books too when suddenly her phone rang. She took her phone and answered it.
"Hello?" Tifa answered.
"Tifa. Sweetie." A male voice said over the phone and this made Tifa smiled for she recognized the voice.
"Cloud."
"How are you? I miss you."
"I'm doing fine. I miss you too." Tifa chuckled and continued talking to Cloud over the phone.
Roxas noticed Tifa talking to someone on the phone and was heading outside the bookstore. He knew she was talking with Cloud so he doesn't have to worry and the blonde continued researching in the bookstore.
^O^
"She's outside." Hayner said as he noticed Tifa went outside the bookstore. "She's talking to someone over the phone."
"Watch closely guys it might be a stranger talking to her." Riku said.
"Yeah, I wonder who'd be talking happily to a stranger on the phone." Sora corrected Riku. And they started to notice too that Tifa was having fun talking on the phone.
"Hehe, you're right." Riku shyly said.
^O^
"I'll pick you up after the convention."
"Okay."
"Have fun and take care. I love you."
"I love you too Cloud." Tifa then hanged up and their conversation was ended. Suddenly a voice came in from behind.
"Tifa-neesan?"
^O^
Namine looked everywhere, turning left and right looking for her best friend, Kairi. She then had this idea that Kairi might be in the bookstore that they were talking about earlier. She then headed to the bookstore immediately.
^O^
"This is getting boring." Hayner said as he looked back and squatted down.
"Yeah." Sora followed. And as for Riku he didn't took his eyes off from the Tifa who was still talking on the phone. Riku's sure behaving seriously on what they're doing.
"Man, I'm getting hungry." Hayner blurted out and touched his stomach. "This stalking thingy is not feeding us!"
"She's done talking on the phone!" Riku said to the two boys behind him.
"What now?" The brunette said and let a big sighed.
"Someone appeared!"
"You seriously thought that were an agents or something, do you Ri—"
"It's a girl with a long auburn hair!"
"What!" Flashed as the lightning the brunette stood up and joined Riku, and so Hayner. "Where?"
As they were watching closely, Hayner observed the auburn girl and remembered something. Long hair, auburn, skinny & blue eyes. Hayner called Sora and want to confirm if he was right on what he thought. "Hey Sora…"
"It's her." Sora said and smirked.
^O^
"Tifa-neesan?" the auburn called from behind.
Tifa turned to know who it was and she got an extreme familiar feeling when she saw the auburn girl.
Kairi got delighted when she knew it was really Tifa and she ran to her and held her hands. "It's really you Tifa-neesan!"
Tifa got surprised by the girl's approached and got froze for a minute.
"It's me, Kairi!" Kairi excitingly said. Tifa then remembered her and got delighted.
"Kairi!" Tifa shouted and hugged the auburn. "Oh my gosh, it's you!"
"Whoa!" The three boys said in unison as they were watching the two ladies far from behind.
"Tifa knows her?" Sora shockingly said.
"The auburn knows her?" Riku who was also shocked and confused asked.
"They know each other!" Hayner shouted. Sora and Riku both covered Hayner's mouth. "Shhhh!"
"Oh my! You've bloomed into a beautiful lady!" Tifa gladly said to the auburn.
"Thank you Neesan. You're beautiful as ever too." Kairi said and smiled.
"Let's go and talk somewhere." Tifa invitingly said.
"Mhmm." Kairi nodded and accepted Tifa's invitation. With this excitement, Tifa forgot Roxas and left with the auburn.
^O^
"I finally found it." The blonde got exhausted in looking for the bookstore. "I hope Kairi's here." She went inside the bookstore and while she was looking around she suddenly bumped someone.
"Oops!" and a book fell in the ground. "I'm sorry" she sincerely apologized and picked up the book. She didn't look who it was and continued to search for her friend.
"Namine?" the guy called her and this made Namine stopped and got surprised.
"Roxas..?"
^O^
"Seriously! Where did that girl ran off to!" Selphie said as she was looking for the auburn worriedly.
^O^
"How did they know each other?" Hayner asked Sora as they were covering their selves by the menu card. And yeah, they went into the restaurant that Tifa and Kairi went in. Still stalking.
"Don't ask me! I don't know either." Sora answered. He too got curious why Kairi and Tifa knew each other. Are they relatives? Friends? Or maybe they're just acquainted? These questions and confusions were running through Sora's mind.
"Shh guys! You're blowing up our cover." Riku warned them. His phone suddenly rang. "Shoot, I got a call. Be right back." He then rushed outside the restaurant and left the two.
"Hey Sora. Is it just me, or Riku's acting seriously like a real stalker..?" Hayner whispered to Sora.
"I think he sees himself like a detective who's in a tough case." Sora said and they both laughed. "You know Sherlock Holmes?"
"Yeah, the detective kid who lives in Japan? The one that became an elementary kid?" Hayner answered and this made Sora laughed. "I'm right, right?" Hayner laughed proudly. Sora then hit Hayner with the menu card.
"Stupid. That's Conan from the anime called Detective Conan."
"Oh." Hayner embarrassingly said.
"You should read literature books." Sora suggested.
"Right."
^O^
"So Kairi, how are you?" the lady with black long hair, who was sitting in front of the auburn, asked.
"I'm doing fine Tifa-neesan. How about you?" The auburn asked back.
"I'm doing fine too. How about Axel?"
"Well… he's not as jolly like before. He became more serious and… protective. Other than that he's doing great." Kairi grinned.
"I see. It looks like he changed after that happened." Tifa said gloomly.
"I guess it did." The auburn looked down.
"It changed me as well." Tifa said and gave Kairi a warm smile. "Your big brother changed me so much."
This made Kairi smiled. "Big brother never fails to smile. He can always make your gloom day into a bright one. I miss him… so much."
"That's why I loved your big brother so much." Tifa looked down and remembered everything back in the past. Every single moment was flashing back to her. She can never forget the guy that made her heart keep beating up until now. And as long as she lives, she would always keep those memories she had with him. She will never forget her first love. Genesis.
