Chapter 12: Kyoko? Part 1
The next day, Kyoko came to school without her glasses. Everyone was whispering who Kyoko was. Kaidoh saw Kyoko and came up to her.
Kyoko said, "Ohiyogozaimas (Good morning), Kaidoh-kun."
Kaidoh replied, "Ohiyogozaimas (Good morning), Kyoko-chan."
People that were nearby were shocked to find out that the girl was Kyoko.
Kaidoh ignored their reaction and asked, "Kyoko-chan, do you feel all right?"
Kyoko nodded and smiled, "Hai (Yes), thank you for your concern."
Kaidoh blushed feeling happy that Kyoko was all right. Kyoko sneezed.
Kyoko said smiling, "It seems I caught a cold from splashing water yesterday."
Kaidoh was a bit annoyed, "Why are you smiling for, that's not a good thing."
They went to the tennis courts finding out that Tezuka had came back from Germany. The regulars including Kyoko happily play tennis. Due to the cold, Kyoko was playing poorly than usual, so she was beaten in all the games that she played. After that they attended to their classes.
After school it started raining. Kyoko stood near the school entrance for shelter.
Kyoko said, "Oh no, it's raining and I didn't bring an umbrella. I even forgot to bring my cell phone to call anyone to pick me up."
Fuji overheard her and said, "Do you want me to walk you home?"
Kyoko answered, "Hai (Yes), you're the best Fuji-senpai."
Fuji laughed, "Let's just say this is a thank you for letting us use your summerhouse."
Fuji and Kyoko conversed happily as they walk Kyoko home. As they walk, a car stopped beside them. A good-looking lady stepped out the car and walk up to Kyoko and slapped her. Fuji was shocked; Kyoko didn't show any emotion at all. Instead she walks up to the lady.
Kyoko said in a low voice, "Goumen (Sorry), Okaa-san (Mother). Please don't be mad at me. Let's go home."
Kyoko bow to Fuji.
Kyoko said, "Arigatou (Thank you), Fuji-senpai."
Kyoko walk with her mother to the car and the car drive away.
The next day, Kyoko looks a bit different than usual. She wasn't as cheerful as before. Momoshiro seeing this, walk up to Kyoko.
Momoshiro said, "Ohiyogozaimas (Good morning), Kyoko-chan."
Kyoko look at Momoshiro as if he was annoying.
Kyoko asked, "Who are you, and why are you calling me with familiarity? You're to call me by last name."
Momoshiro look confused and said, "I'm Momo-chan, remember? And you let me call you, Kyoko-chan."
Kyoko snickered, "Momo-chan sounds like a girl's name."
Momoshiro was irritated, "What did you say?"
Kyoko said, "What is it, you want to pick a fight?"
Momoshiro clenched his fist. Kyoko walks away.
Kyoko went to her class and sat down at a random seat. The bell rang and the students came in. A boy walks up to Kyoko.
The boy said, "Ah, Kyoko-chan, this is my seat. Can you get out?"
Kyoko replied, "I'm sorry, but I don't answer to Kyoko-chan to people I don't really know. You're to call me by my last name."
The boy got impatient and said, "Hirugashi, this is my seat. Get out of it." (A/N)
Kyoko stood up and went to the empty seat. While she stood up she looks at the boy.
Kyoko said, "Next time you say my name I should hear an honorific in it."
Kaidoh seeing the commotion, said, "You shouldn't talk to your senpai that way."
Kyoko replied, "How I talk doesn't apply to you, so I suggest you to mind your own business."
Kaidoh got irritated and was about to tell Kyoko something but the teacher came in. School proceeds and by the end of the day, everyone in class hated her.
In tennis practice, Kyoko had picked a fight with Arai. Kyoko was winning. Everyone tried to grab Kyoko and Arai apart. When Tezuka saw this he told her and Arai to run laps, but she refused. Ryuzaki-sensei mad came to pinch her cheeks.
Ryuzaki-sensei said, "You know how hard it was for me to let you in the tennis club? You're to train them, not picking fights. If you continue, I will kick you out of the tennis club."
Kyoko replied, "Fine, I quit."
Kyoko walks away from the tennis club. Then she calls for a driver to pick her up.
After practice, the regulars ask Ryuzaki-sensei for the address of Kyoko. They felt like there's something going wrong with Kyoko.
Kyoko arrived to a baby blue house. The house was really big, but smaller than a mansion. Kyoko came in, the maids and butlers welcome her and took her stuff. She went upstairs and went into a room. She sat down on the bed. Beside her was a girl that looks exactly like her, panting. The girl was red and was in pain, due to a fever.
Kyoko said smiling, "You know what Kyoko-chan? All your dear friends believe I'm you. And guess what? They all hate you. You have a happy life because of your easy-going personality; now let's see if you have a perfect life from being easy-going."
The sister continued wanting to burst into tears, "When we were little, you were mother's favorite and I was father's favorite. After the divorce, I have no one to care for me anymore. It also seems that Okaa-san (Mother) concentrate on you even more. Then because of your talents and photographic memory, Otou-san (Father) thinks you're the best, and abandoned me. I even heard that you might have a chance to be heir of the Hirugashi's fortune. Why? Even though we're twins, you have everything and I have nothing. Why? I am the oldest. I'm the one who suppose to have the most chance to gain the fortune. I hate you, Kyoko! I hate you for having everything!"
Then the sister left shutting the door, leaving Kyoko in bed panting. Kyoko had heard everything from her older sister.
Kyoko whispered, "You have it all wrong, onee-chan (Older sister). It's not pleasant being heir, you have to be perfect in everything, no mistakes at all. To be perfect, you can't have fun, you can't have freedom, and your life is being controlled. And there's nothing great about me. All I have now is through hard work. Photographic memory, everyone says photographic memory is a great ability to have. It is not a great ability at all. Every painful experience is stuck in my head and I can never get rid of it. You, on the other hand, can forget about it. I have always wanted to have your life, so you shouldn't; you shouldn't be envious about my life at all."
Then Kyoko groaned from the pain of the fever.
Saying names without honorific is really rude. The only time it is not rude, is when you use it to a person that is really close to you. (I think)
