Hohoemu no Kawaii Akuma Episode 8
Bright? What happened?
Fine sobbed as she pulled out her black shoes from her locker. She scrubbed away her tears and sniffed as she lifelessly put on the shoes. She looked at her wristwatch and glanced at the GYM building then took a deep breath.
One minute
She whispered. One minute, if Bright arrives, she will confess. But if not, she will move on.
Her eyes fixed on the corridor, encouraging herself with some words such as everything will be okay.
30 seconds…
"I love you, Bright…please don't do this…don't be mad…"
Yes. Although Fine is somewhat dense when it comes to love, she knows what love is.
She knows the meaning of every fast heartbeat whenever he walks beside her. The way her eyes could see him and only him. The moment she gets jealous and envious when gorgeous women surrounds him. And the manner her heart broke when he got mad at her, whether it's a joke or not.
10 seconds
She pressed her eyes shut and began walking away. It's useless. How could Bright like her back? It's just too good to be true. He may have had showed some affection but those are just out of their little game of master and servant.
"Three, two, one…" She took a last glance at the place where she left him before running away, afraid that some of her sister and Shade's friends would see her crying. It would take a lot of explaining if that happens.
She rushed out of the campus and wiped her tears.
"Ahh, what have I done?" Bright wanted to punch his face, knowing that Fine is somewhere, still crying.
"Yah, Bright. What happened?" Auler and some other guys entered the GYM.
"I messed up…" Bright groaned, fisting his golden locks. "REAL BAD this time…" he hissed, slumping on a cleaner part of the building.
Auler looked at the miserable guy as if he grew five heads. Did Bright just admit his mistake?
After a minute, the green haired guy cleared his throat. "So, uh, what happened?" He said, repeating his previous question. Auler bit his lower lip and awkwardly scratched his nape, expecting the blond to snap at them, telling them to mind their own f-king businesses and he will throw them out of the GYM without warning. But none of those happened, which was, even weird. Auler felt goose bumps appear on his skin. Someone record this. This is so rare.
Bright looked up, doe-eyes filled with tears, like a child who lost his pet. "Auler…" he sniffed. "She hates me now…" He cried like a baby. The other guys fought hard not to coo. If Shade was here, he would have danced like a party animal already.
Okay, so, uh, something's wrong with my best friend. Auler felt like crying while the others slipped back their phone in their pockets, telling each other not to take pictures. Bright still deserves respect though he looks so CUTE right now, unbefitting of his cold/devil-like demeanor.
The green haired angel slumped beside his best friend and comforted him. "Who is she?" he carefully asked.
"Fine, Rein's twin. I yelled at her…s-she cried…I don't what happened…I-I want to die…" he bawled out.
Wow, just wow. Bright is having some women problems? On top of that HE'S CRYING?! Auler wanted to slap himself but realized not too because that would be too awkward.
Bright nestled his head on the guy's shoulder and clutched his fist on his (Auler's) sleeve.
"Why did you yell at her?" Auler finally asked.
"My parents are here today, that includes Altezza…" Auler's eyes lit up by the mention of the blonde brat. "…but don't party yet you rascal, I'm being emotional here," Bright growled. Auler gulped and nodded eagerly.
The gorgeous blond sighed, hugging his knees to his chest. "Fine said I have to go home and prepare because yehey! my parents' are finally home, after what, fifteen f—cking years?! Are you f—cking kidding me?!" Bright almost snapped, ALMOST. That's it, bipolar Bright Yasuhiro came out, in a matter of five freaking seconds from crying and acting like a baby. He kept cursing and muttering profanities.
Auler shuddered as well as the others. No one dared to say anything. They don't want to face the wrath yet.
"Okay so, uh, I think, you still haven't yelled at her…" Auler mumbled, rubbing the back of his best friend in soothing circles. The others were astounded at the green haired guy's courage.
"I am telling this as your friend who has known you for many years. I know you still want to see them. You love them, Bright. And Fine sees that. The way you think and talk about them, you still see them as your own parents," Auler explained.
There was a moment of silence and everyone felt like dying from suffocation.
Why? Did I say something wrong?
Auler gulped.
Bright finally looked up and sighed, a pout on his lips. "Your right…" he admits, still pouting his plump lips. If his fangirls are present at the moment, they would have died from heart attack.
Auler smiled and patted his best friend's shoulders affectionately. This is the difference between Shade and Auler, Bright's two best friends. Shade can be sympathetic and smart to handle situations but he is such a straightforward man who does not bother to sugarcoat his words. On one hand, Auler is so affectionate that you'll realize the goodness in life.
Bright returned the smile and hugged his best friend. He looked up and saw the other guys smiling at them.
"What are you idiots smiling at? Clean this shit because I have an apology to deliver," he instructed sternly. The guys gulped and bowed, obeying him. Auler just chuckled and waved at him.
"Thanks, sappy lover boy," Bright mumbled as he gave Auler a bro hug.
"Anytime, dumbass," Auler smirked, returning the hug.
With that, Bright hightailed out of there, practicing the apology in his head. But before that, he has to confront something else first.
A/N: Finished. Unedited. Heyyy! How are you, guys? I'm fine anyways. I hope I can update chapters as soon as possible. Thanks for reading!
