Chapter 11 "To plan a big Reunion, a very embarrassing Situation and a right Decision"
"... I congratulate the Class of 2004" With these words of the school director's the graduation party ended. Student and teacher applauded and stood up from their chairs.
One after another they have received their diplomas. Shin's mother had brought his diploma before the ceremony and was already gone.
Despite the exuberant mood around them it was more saddened by the four friends. Finally someone was missing.
"Kippei onii-chan !" Yuzuyu came into the garden and threw himself into Kippei's arms. Miyako and Yuzuyu had come over the weekend to celebrate Kippei's high school graduation and the admission to the university.
"Yuzuyu !" Kippei closed his cousin in his arms. The surprise was great to see them again. He had expected with her only in the summer .
"Aunt Miyako" He embraced his aunt. "Since when are you here?" "
"We arrived yesterday. It should be a surprise. We were also your graduation party" "Really? Where?" "The very back. Yuzuyu would have liked summoned to you when you got your diploma"
"Yuzuyu would immediately run dearest to you when you receive your diploma" Miyako smiled at her daughter which was in Kippei´s arms. "but it should be a surprise" "It is a big surprise, i thought i´m going to see you in July" Kippei released his cousins from his arms. "Yes, we are also here to talk about the holiday plans"
"But first we are going to celebrate the graduation of Kokoro" Misako came into the garden with a tablet full of glasses.
"You know it can bring us into big trouble?" Mai looked around nervously. Unusual for her.
"Shin's mother said that she and her husband go to eat in their favorite restaurant" said Kippei cool. "And if they do come back sooner?" Kokoro was also not sure about the plan.
"She says she can distract him until about 11 clock. And it's not as if we break in, we finally have a key" grinning Kippei held up the house key. Tomoe was worried about her son. She also wanted to how her son was.
"Good. But what about the neighbors? See you at times but the region" Mai pointed to the houses where they passed. Left and right, there were large houses.
Clearly the quarter of the Upper rich people Aki would like to say. "They immediately would hit the alarm if they see the light when no one should be home" "We just think about it why do we do this" Mai nooded. "Kokoro´s right. We have reunite two of our best friends. They can´t be seperate for the rest of their lives" "Don´t be a Drama Queen Mai. That´s Aki´s role" Kippei giggled. It was funny when Kokoro and Mai began to discuss. "I´m not a Drama Queen. I´m realistic" "You are gloomy"
"Okay girls! No cat fight" Mai and Kokoro looked at Kippei which grinned as he would be the rooster in basket. "Unbelievable that he is your fiancée" Mai shooked her head "Sometimes i think the same" Kokoro sighed. "You´re mean" Kippei pouted "But he looks cute when he pouts" The girls giggled.
"Well we have what we wanted" Kippei put the subject back to the desk. "We will rapidly disappear" Just had the three left the study room, they heard the opening of the front door. Shocked they stopped. "Oh damn!" Mai looked around "what now? It's only half-elf" "quickly into the living room from there we can go to the front door"
But they did not get far. Shin's parents walked into the living room, giggling. "Quickly behind the sofa" as fast as they could to hide it behind the large sofa.
"We could definitely still be able to eat a dessert" Shin's mother pulled her coat and threw it on the sofa. She wore a dark red evening dress. "Well they have really excellent patisserie but I thought rather to a different kind of dessert"
Tomoe took her husband on his suit jacket and pulled him close. "Really? And what would it be?" Yamato let his hands wander to the zipper of her dress. The dress fell rustling to the ground. Other clothes fell to. Tomoe pushed her husband on the sofa and followed the same
"Oh god no !" Mai whispered. Kippei while trying not to laugh Kokoro and Mai held their ears. This was clearly worse than being caught in the house.
With a soft click the door was shut. The three Slowly crawled behind out the sofa. There was dead silence.
"Okay ... that was unexpected," "Not bad for her age" Kippei caught from his girlfriend and Mai a sharp look one. "What?" "Your parents are in their age"
"Oh no this image I'll never go!" Mai smirked. "Okay lets go. We have the adress. On weekend we´ll visit Shin and talk" "What about Aki? Shoukd we tell her about that?" Silence "We`ll meet us tomorrow at my house and talk with her if she want to come with us" Kippei ans Kokoro nooded. "I will call her in the morning"
In cats paw, the three left the Upper rich quarters.
Impatiently they waited for Aki. They had two hours to be at the airport . With or without Aki. "Where is she?" Kokoro looked at the clock on the wall. for half an hour they were waiting for her friend. "I told her that we plan to go to Okinawa and we would meet here" "Did she say something? Maybe her parents didn´t allowed it" Kippei asked bewildered. "It can´t be. Her parents traveld yesterday evening to South Korea. She is home alone" Mai looked at her friends.
Frantic knock on the door ripped the three from their considerations. "Maybe it´s Aki" Kokoro opend the frontdoor to welcome her friend. Aki breathed hectic and leaning on her knees from. "Am I too late? I did not know what to pack" Kokoro's glance fell on the huge suitcase "For how many days have you packed?" Kokoro closed behind Aki and went with her to the living room to Mai and Kippei "about a week" "We have planned to stay the weekend and talk about how it should go further" said Kippei and stood up from the sofa " I´ll call a taxi and then lets go to Okinawa"
After a two and a half hour flight the airplane landed on the Naha Airport Base at Naha Airport. From the baggage claim they four brought their luggage and took a taxi which they took to the hotel in Nishihara.
"The hotel is only 4 minutes away from the University Hospital" said Kippei as they entered the hotel lobby. "We bring our luggage to the room and then we are looking for Shin" "It´s only 10 a.m. Where do you think Shin could be at this time?" "I´m sure he is at the hospital" Mai pushed the button to call the elevator.
"WOW! That´s what i call a big building" amazement were the four in front of the entrance of the hospital. "How can we find Shin here?" Aki looked around hopelessly. "There are so many people. I mean who are the patient and who are the students" "Aki calm down" Kokoro put her hand on Aki´s shoulder. "Maybe we should go to the University and ask for him. I´m sure we can find him there"
Aki nodded thankfully.
"There are more people than at the hospital" noticed Kippei.
"We simply ask by ourselves" Some students later a student turned to Kippei. "You're looking for Tabata Shin? The son of Dr. Tabata" Kippei turned around and looked at a young handsome guy. He looks like a Hawaii Surfer guy. "Yes, you know him?" "Yeah, I am his tutor. To get used to. I thought it was really unusual to switch to the university even before High School Graduation"
"Yes, his father made sure he disappears without a trace here. Shin's mother has enabled us to come here. She do not even have to contact her own son"
"So you are his best friend Kippei Katakura. He talks about you. And his girlfriend Maki or Saki…"
"Aki" "Right. Dr. Tabata has cut all contacts to Tokyo. I heard them talk about it. Shin was not happy about it. " Kippei nodded. He could believe it.
"By the way i´m Matsugami Katsumi. Plastic and Aesthetic Surgery in 2nd Year"
Katsumi gave him a charming smile. ´Is he flirting with me?´
"You know me" Kippei looked around for his fianceé and her friends and saw them standing a few meters away from him and this Hawaii Surfer guy "HEY! KOKORO!"
Frightened Kokoro drove around. WTF! Mai groaned. "Typical Kippei. Who´s that guy?" "That´s one of Kippei´s features. Making new friends" said Aki. "Let´s go to them before Kippei kills someone by waving like this" Kokoro and her friends looked at her fianceé and smiled.
"Katsumi this are Mai, Aki, Shin´s girlfriend" Kippei points to the two girls "and that´s my fianceé Kokoro. Girls, this is Matsugami Katsumi, Shin´s tutor.
"Hey!" Katsumi winks at the three girls and smiled at Kippei. ´He´s doing it again!´
"Are you sure you want to separate?" Depressed mood filled the room. "Yes, it's better that way. We both have different goals and notions of live" Right, sometimes the so called "true love" was not enough to pursue both aims.
That was the end of a love.
The two weeks until the first semester went by flight. Mai went a few days ago to Osaka to set up in her student apartment. Aki was already gone a week ago to Shibuya-ku.
Kippei and Kokoro enjoyed the last free days.
