CHAPTER TWELVE. Angry Woman

When a person truly care for someone, their mistakes never change the feelings because it is the mind that gets angry but the heart still cares.

SCROLL DOWN

These past few days the life of our navigator suddenly turned into a nightmare. It was not actually a very spooky nightmare that haunt her down every single night but it was a little bit rough and tough because her nakama that was composed by the Pirate King Luffy, the Sniper King Usopp and the Soul King Brook began treating her like a real housemaid. They had totally forgotten the fact that she was still their nakama.

All she could hear from them was those words. "Nami there", "Nami that", "Nami, where are you?", "Nami clean this", "Nami food!", and many more commands and orders, with of course the accompany of her name.

Well, you could not blame them because they had their own reason why they were kept on treating her like a maid.

It was actually because of what our lovecook told them about the words of GAME and PRICE.

Sanji told them that it was all just a game why he had hired Nami as a maid. Every orders and commands they gave her was just a part of a game. Every hardship and difficulty she would face was equivalent to her level. When she successfully won every level or the game itself then she would definitely get her price. But he did not tell them about the price because it was still a surprise.

But actually it was just all a show just to make them believed that he was not doing it for his sake. He did assign Nami as a maid just to make her feel like she had no companion at all, that everyone did not really care about her that was why they were treating her like nothing.

But along the way of treating Nami as a real housemaid, her nakama suddenly changed their goal and totally forgot everything about the game, they did not care anymore about the game, because they just enjoyed kept ordering and commanding her around.

They really had fun of being a boss to a maid monstrous Nami.

When Nami was about to rest the stupid trio of Luffy, Brook and Usopp suddenly came out promptly from nowhere just to disturb and commanding her around. They kept on blabbering and blabbing about their orders.

Like…

"Oi Nami, stop idling here! There are still odd jobs for you to do!" Loud ordered coming from the Long nose Usopp, when Nami was about to take her nap.

Or…

"Nami-san, it is not yet clean, please you need to redo it again but first let me see your panties, yohohohoho." Stupid laugher coming from the Soul King Brook when Nami had done cleaning a certain area in the mansion.

Or…

"Naaami, I am so hungry start cooking now!" A boastful and selfish order coming from the Pirate King Luffy every ticking of the clock.

Every time she tried to argue and dispute with them, embarking and complaining about her right so ceaselessly. She even performed her annoyance by being a monster making a big rumpus. Immediately as quickly as possible, her nakama stopped her by saying. "If you don't want to work, talk to Sanji!"

Yawning

And

Stretching

Our navigator was up at five in the early morning to do her duty as the only housemaid in this huge mansion. She slowly crept out from her bed to stand in front of her mirror. She lifted her head to look at the clock that hung firmly on the wall and blowing her words. "It is already 5:15… I need to move faster before my stupid bosses wake up…"

She abruptly vaulted to the bathroom to take her bath, showering and splashing the cold water to all over her slender body. Couple of minutes passed when she took her steps outside the bathroom. She dried herself, put on a body lotion from all over her body, and lastly wore her worn-out outfit, her uniform.

Gosh, she really hated her rag uniform but she had no other choice but to wear it.

She stood back again right in front of her mirror just to examine and see her reflection. She dried up her long tangerine hair, combed and tied it in a cute bum before applying her simple makeup.

She was now ready, absolutely ready to begin her day.

She quickly headed to the kitchen that was located next beside her room.

She cooked for her breakfast and ate right away just to gain strength for this whole day, then she stepped in the living area where she could spend her entire whole day.

This day was not really unusual for her because it was always a hard and heavy works of cleaning, washing, ironing, dusting, mapping, putting to the right order of every furniture, taking care of every rooms, and many more.

It was a whole heavy tasks and she really felt so exhausted. She was also felt so bored of repeating same routine all over again every single day.

Right now, she was in the kitchen, busy running back and forth to the counter and to the huge table while she was preparing for the dinner.

She was so absorbed cooking, filling, and putting meat and various food to the huge table, setting them up just to complete the preparations for the dinner.

Yes, it was already a dinnertime my fellowship, as we all know that time moves really fast.

"Minna, your delicious food is ready!" Nami called out so cheerfully, poking her head to the door just to call them out.

"Oho! Meat! Meat! Meat! Mear! Meeeeeeeeeeeat!" Luffy cried, from the recreation room he extended and stretched his rubber hands to grip the door from the dinning room then he quickly flew just to get inside, passing our gapping navigator on the door.

"Luffy!" Nami screamed.

"Yosh, so quick!" Luffy cheered. He immediately sat on the chair and started gulping his meat.

Nami marched toward Luffy. She was so mad and annoyed then hit Luffy on his head. "Don't you dare do that again!"

Luffy did not care at all, as long as he could eat his meat.

"Nami, you… you cook again?" Chopper said, dripping sweat on his tiny forehead.

"Yes, don't forget that as a maid of this mansion, my other duty is to cook food for my bosses." Nami said in a sarcastic way, raising one of her eyebrows. "Don't tell me, you are not happy?"

"Ah… it is not like that… well you see…" Chopper affrighted, looking for a word to say.

"It is not like what? What is it?" Nami asked, stepping forward with her very scary aura. "You see, I am not really in a mood to hear any bad words or insults coming from you or to anyone!"

"I am… I am sorry… gwaaaaaaaah! I am sorry, forgive me!" Chopper begged, stream of massive tears flowed out from his eyes.

"Oh gosh Chopper, why are you crying and even apologizing when I haven't do anything yet?" Nami laughed, smacking Chopper's tiny back with her hand.

"You look so scary!" Chopper cried so loud.

"Nami you can't really blame Chopper." Usopp stated, stood behind Nami and Chopper.

"WHAT?" Nami huffed. She immediately turned around, gyrating so fast to look at the new arrived Usopp. "What do you mean?"

"Nami-dono, you cooked again this time, so it only means you are going to kill us again this time." Usopp explained, shaking his head in a way of disappointment, mocking Nami.

"YOU BIG IDIOT!" Nami howled. "Do you want me to kill you this time?" She extended her hands to gripped Usopp's hair, pulling it hardly.

"KWAAAAAAAH!" Usopp wailed, stepping back away from his scary nakama.

"Ah uh, oi… Na… Nami?" Chopper shuttered. He was thinking so hard if stopping Nami from her little uproar was really a good decision or a bad one.

"WHAT?" Nami scorned, quickly springing her head to give her glare to the frightening Chopper.

"I… I…" Chopper tried to speak but he ended up gulping, then in his second attempt. "I think, if we stay here any longer Luffy is going to eat all of the food you have prepared."

"Aahh! You are right! I totally forgot Luffy!" Nami cried, withdrawing Usopp from her painful grasp, then she immediately flew inside the dining area.

"Uhh…" Usopp moaned in a painful way. "Chopper, you save my life. Thank you!" He crawled so slowly beside Chopper.

"Uwaaaaah!" Chopper wailed, tears all over the place.

"What the heck! Why are you still crying?" Usopp snapped, raising one of his eyebrows in accordance with his bamboozlement.

"Because... because I am so scared! I thought she was going to kill us! Gowaaaaaah." Chopper cried.

"Oi oi oi, don't cry Chopper. I feel you. I do really feel you." Usopp comforted, rubbing Chopper's head.

While they were still grieving and mourning, Nami suddenly poked her head from the dinning room just to say. "You two, do you want to eat or not? If you don't want to eat then it's still okay."

"Oi, just wait up, I am going to eat but…" Usopp said. He bent down to meet Chopper's height, whispering. "Oi Chopper, don't forget your medicine if I suddenly suffer from food poisoning."

"I know. I'd already prepared." Chopper whispered back.

Then in a voyage of second, Usopp and Chopper met Nami's heated fists, whacking them hard on their heads. "What are you whispering for?"

"Gowaaaaah, that's hurt Nami!" Usopp cried.

"Uhuuuuuuuuh." Chopper just sobbed.

"Oh by the way, did you see Brook and Sanji-kun? Where are they?" Nami asked, swirling her head to seek for her two missing nakama.

"Yohohoho, Nami-san your Soul King in the shining armor is here!" Brook called out, prostrating in front of Nami. "You were looking for me, so it means… you are willing to show me your beautiful panties?"

"Don't be too stupid, so where is the pervert cook?" Nami said. She totally ignored Brook's stupidity, continued looking for her real prince in the shining armor.

"I am so hurt, but it is still okay because I don't really have a heart to feel hurt… but I can still feel it, yohohohoho." Brook laughed.

"Sanji?" Chopper asked.

"Yes, did you see him?" Nami queried.

"I think, I saw him in his office." Chopper replied.

"Usopp, will you call him for me?" Nami ordered.

"Huh? Why me? Come on Nami, I am too tired. Please ask someone else not me!" Usopp complained.

"Don't be stupid! Just go and call him." Nami commanded in a very furious way, making her companions jumped so high.

"Just go Usopp!" Chopper said, pushing Usopp forward.

"Now, Usopp-san!" Brook said.

"Okay fine! I will call him." Usopp huffed.

Just as Usopp was moving to call for Sanji. A loud yell suddenly rang around the place, making everyone stopped doing what they were currently doing.

The yell could be heard located right in the large central hallway of the mansion.

"What's that?" Usopp asked, looking at to each and everyone of his nakama.

"Don't know." Chopper replied. He stepped to hide behind Brook, frightening.

"Yohohoho, it sounds frightening." Brook added.

"Let's go and see." Nami suggested.

Due to their curiosity and confusion, they ran promptly toward the large central hallway just to look for the source of that certain yell.

The loud yell, it was coming from a woman.

When they finally arrived to their destination, they immediately saw a woman.

Yes, it was so perfectly clear to our navigator's sight that the yell was coming from a woman, who was now crying, talking, and yelling in front of her Sanji-kun.

That woman appearance, well, no doubt that she was really a perfect ideal woman of every man. She had her shapely figure, wasp-waisted and glossy skin, with a hair like an evening night that tumbled down her shoulders and saccharine sweet lips. She was wearing her gothic clothes in a bellious way.

'Who is she?' Nami asked underneath her voice. She wanted to ask her nakama but she ended up asking herself.

The woman was saying bunch of words, but no word passed through our navigator ears.

The woman clearly sounded like she was really in a big trouble, that she really needed Sanji in her life.

Nami could not stop from thinking. 'Who is she? What is she doing here? Why is she crying? Who is making her cry? Who is making her yell like that? Is it because of Sanji-kun? But why? Who is she from Sanji-kun's life? What is their relationship? What is really happening here?'

The woman tried to draw closer to Sanji, as a matter of fact, she was not approaching him in a seductive way or anything. However, when she went near him, he would say something quietly like a whispered, which caused her to cry again and pushed him away.

Nami could not actually see everything because Usopp and Brook were tall enough to block her view. She could not really catch every detail, but she could still see that Sanji and that woman continued a pattern of that woman was approaching him, her crying relating similar things, and her pushing him away.

Awful. Terrible. Devastating. Hurt.

Words failed to express the feelings our navigator felt right now.

Her Sanji-kun stood closer next to an unknown woman. They were kept on arguing like a sweet couple in their lover's quarrel.

It was one of the most painful scenes she had ever seen.

Wasn't it funny, the way her memory worked, there were things she could not quite remember and the things she could never forget. He was one such memory.

She and Sanji had used to talk, care, share, cry, hope, and even fight against from their enemies.

She never felt on giving up on him, even when he began shoving her away from his life, with each passing day, her love proliferated.

She thought that everything would slowly turn into perfect because they were living in the same house and he was so near like only an inch near to her.

But one day an unknown woman suddenly replaced her place. Her place next to him.

The woman continued crying right in front of Sanji. Her cry became louder and more intense. She even began pleading forcefully.

But Sanji just stood there.

There was no heart shape in his eyes.

There was no stupid goofy on his face.

There was no heart shapes circling around his head.

There was no blood on his nose.

The expression on his face was plain.

No happiness. No loneliness. No emotions at all. No. Nothing.

But suddenly, his plain eyes met our navigator eyes.

His eyes kept locking at her big chocolate eyes, like he was planning not to avert his eyes away from her.

Nami just stopped moving, speechless, emotionless, shock and very surprise. She did not really expect that he would look at her when there was a beautiful woman right in front of him.

She just loved the way his eyes focused on her, only to her, not to his nakama and not to the woman stood in his front.

They felt like the world suddenly stopped from moving, that the two of them were the only exist in this big world. No one else except them.

Then their own world abruptly collapsed when the woman spoke.

"Hey, Sanji speak up!" The woman spouted, using her smooth hand to push Sanji. She had totally broken the imagination world of Sanji and his beautiful goddess.

"Just not here, let's go outside." Sanji said, his mouth placed near on the woman ear like he was whispering something that only the two of them could hear.

Nami watched every movement they made, and watching him with someone else killed her slowly inside. It was crushing and ruining everything in her.

It was also like having a huge part of her hopes for the future died in a swift death.

It was perhaps she was too confident that he would eventually love her again, and when the timing was better he would take her seriously.

But.

'Yes, people do change while I am still hoping and waiting for him to discover how perfect I will be for him, he meets someone else and got serious.' Nami thought.

She could not really see them much because Usopp and Brook still blocked her. But when she leaped just to see them more clearly that when she saw that Sanji was definitely grabbing the woman by her hand so intensely and he started pulling her closer toward him while they were moving to where she could not see them.

It was too hard for her but it was already happening.

It hurt.

She was left with excruciating pain.

Then a fragment of the past suddenly passed through her mind, it was the day they were meant to see each other in the floating restaurant of Baratie.

Then the fragments kept on coming and passing through her, they were the the memories of how they spent their time just to be with each other, giving her everything, saving her and pampering her every second of his life. They had both been happy as friends.

It could have been three years ago but her mind took her back there every minute of every day.

She had never thought that she would like him this much. She never either planned to have him on her mind this often.

"Why do you want to go outside? Oh do you now feel ashamed and scared because your nakama are watching us, don't you Sanji?" The woman bragged, exchanging her sarcastic glare to Sanji and his nakama.

"It is not like that…" Sanji said.

"I don't want to go outside. I want us to talk in front of your nakama. I want them to hear everything I am going to tell you!" The woman insisted, slapping Sanji's hand away because he was still gripping her.

"Don't make a scene, let's go!" Sanji said. He kept tightening his grip to the woman.

"I don't!" The woman shouted.

'What did I do to feel this way? Where did it go wrong? Where did it fail to go right? What should I have done that I didn't? What did I do that I shouldn't have? Am I deserving this feeling? Am I lacking something? Am I too stupid to let my hope? Is this woman better than me?' Nami asked desperately within her mind.

"That woman again?" Chopper whispered to no one in particular.

"You know her, Chopper?" Nami whispered back to Chopper. She was taken aback when she heard what Chopper had said.

"Not really." Chopper said.

"It is definitely Chopper-san, because I sometimes tried to ask her if she would let me see her panties though she always screamed every time she saw me." Brook added.

"Well, she is really beautiful, so there's no doubt that Sanji-kun will not resist a beauty just like her. I know it, I definitely know it because it is so obvious." Nami remarked, her mouth spoke something that actually killed her inside.

"Are you sure?" Usopp asked. He raised one of his eyebrows.

"Yes. I am absolutely sure." Nami dotted.

"Though our Sanji is now a so-called Man of Cruelty?" Usopp asked. He then crossed his arms above his chest.

"Yes, because no matter what he tried to do, he can't really hide the fact that he is still a lovecook, and ignoring this woman is absolutely impossible, a big miracle!" Nami dotted again. She had marked her own words. 'He can easily ignore me because I am not really that special because I am just his nakama. '

Usopp chuckled mockingly. "I thought you are smart Nami, but I am wrong, you disappoint me. Just watch and learn." He pointed Sanji and the woman using his big lips, spouted.

"I am smart, you are just an idiot!" Nami said, relocating her eyes to her Sanji-kun.

"Sanji… I am asking for your forgiveness, as you see, I am regretting everything… everything I have done. I didn't not even say my reason why I left you but please… please, believe me when I say I love you. Yes, I mean it, I really love you…" The woman confessed. She said it with all her dramatic voice, expression and teary eyes.

'Whaaaaaaaaaat? She just confessed! Oh no!' Nami cried.

"I am now here, standing right in front of you to prove myself and to tell you what I really feel. I do deserve a second chance. I deserve to be your girlfriend, to be with you always and forever. I swear that I will never ever leave you again. I will be by your side to love you." The woman continued, begging with all her effort, kept holding Sanji's hand tightly using her hand.

Nami suddenly felt a blend of emotions right in her chest when she was still watching them. Muscle tightened. Heart rate increased. Abnormal activities in her stomach. Shortness of breath.

'Sanji is going to accept her. I know it.' Nami thought, forcing herself to remain calm and ignoring what she really felt though she could not take it anymore and any longer. It hurt her.

She was in the verge of massive tears, her eyes could not prevent the tears from coming, then her eyes quickly caught Sanji's mouth, oh no, he was going to say his answer to the woman confession.

'NOOOOOOOOO! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR IT! NOOOOOOOOOOO. I AM GOING TO DIE. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO! PLEASE SANJI-KUN! NOOOOOOOOOOOOO!'

"Please you need to forgive me if I may sound rude but… who might you be?" Sanji just asked, raising one of his curlybrows just to show he really meant what he said.

'NOOOOOOOOOO… EH. WHAT? Did I hear him right?'

HUH?

SHOCK!

"Told yah." Usopp smirked, feeling so proud of himself. "Nami, meet the MAN OF CRUELTY not the LOVECOOK SANJI."

"Bu… but… where is the heart shape? The… the snake dance, the nosebleed…?" Nami asked frantically, exchanging her gaze rapidly between Sanji and Usopp.

"The lovecook Sanji is already dead years ago, you are now looking at the Man of Cruelty, my poor Nami." Usopp said.

"You are kidding, right? That's impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Nami fired back.

"Possible, Nami-dono."

"I'm Georgina, one of your girlfriends, who loves you so much." The woman said. She was still gripping Sanji's hand as she was staring right at his eye.

"Georgina…?" Sanji repeated, thinking for a while. "I've never heard that name before, have I?"

"You have heard my name because we used to love each other. You used to love me so much. I know that you are just lying, right? Sanji, please don't joke around." Georgina said, pleading as much as she could.

'We used to love each other?' Sanji thought. He moved his gaze to look at his goddess, who was still in the middle of argument with Ussop. 'We used to love each other… but she never used to love me and I never used to love her because I still love her. I love her before and until now. My love for her will never change, it keeps growing.'

"Sanji, just admit that you know me and until now you still love me." Georgina said, doing all her might to get Sanji's attention, when all his attention abruptly caught by the tangerine hair woman who wore her worn-out uniform.

'Yes, I really love her more than anything in this world. She is now my own world.' Sanji thought, while he was looking at his goddess, but when he moved back his eyes to the woman stood right in front of him. "Sorry Miss, but I haven't really heard your name."

On the other hand.

"Oh my god Usopp, is this real, this particular scene in my eyes!" Nami whispered, asking Usopp ceaselessly.

"Yes, yes I am a god, thank you for your compliment." Ussop just said.

"Sanji-kun…? The lovecook…? I can't believe!" Nami added.

"Just believe, and believe in me too, my follower!" Usopp replied, feeling so mighty.

"The world is definitely going to an end if Sanji-kun kept ignoring her." Nami exclaimed, exchanging her gaze between Sanji and the woman.

"Well, I really understand you because I thought the same too when he first ignored his wooers." Usopp said. He was kind of bored.

"So, there's so many of her?" Nami cried, her chocolate eyes grew wilder, gapping incessantly.

"Yes, so many as you think." Usopp replied.

"Unbelievable." Nami astounded.

"Believable." Usopp said.

"Sanji-san, I am sorry for the sudden interruption but I think she is telling the truth because she did really become your girlfriend, your twenty-fifth girlfriend, who had broken your heart terribly." Brook mentioned.

'Twenty-fifth? Seriously?' Nami cried.

"Oh really? But I don't really remember." Sanji knotted. He was not really that convinced. He was frowning, his way of thinking.

"No. No. No. You are wrong! I am not his twenty-fifth girlfriend but I am his twenty-seventh girlfriend, the most brilliant and beautiful, Georgina." Georgina corrected so proudly, standing so gracefully and beautifully.

"I want to remind you, it is not girlfriend but ex-girlfriend." Usopp added.

Whisper. Whisper. Whisper. Whisper. Whisper.

"Twenty-seventh? Wait… really? Are you sure? No lie?" Nami bolted, gaping incessantly, mouth hung widely, jaw automatically dropped down, and eyes stretched open.

"Yes, no lie at all." Usopp said.

"Hey aside from being Sanji-kun twenty-seventh ex-girlfriend, what else? Can you guys tell me?" Nami whispered. She wanted to know it too damn eagerly. She was even trying her best to stay cool, calm and relax.

She needed to act like this news could not actually affect her, like it was just a trivial news. She needed to pretend too that she did not really care about them, the relationship of this Georgina and her Sanji-kun.

Calm. Relax. Cool. Chill.

"I don't really know her… but I still remember her." Chopper said.

"You already said it, Chopper! Please tell me everything you know." Nami pleaded.

Why were you pleading Nami?

"I smell something fishy." Usopp simpered.

"A smell of JEALOUSY?" Brook added.

"SHUT UP!" Nami snapped.

"I will try to remember." Chopper said, thinking and thinking.

"Try to remember!" Nami commanded.

"Well, I only remember is when they started become a lover because Georgina was always in the All Blue Restaurant just to get Sanji's attention. Every single day she was always there to see him…" Chopper explained.

"Seducing him? Is that what you mean? I know right, I know that kind of harassment." Nami said, interrupting Chopper.

"Harassment? Are you kidding?" Usopp asked.

"I don't know, but it is not really harassment because Sanji did enjoy her company. Every time they were each other, Sanji was happy. They were happy and always together, laughing together, embracing each other…" Chopper continued.

"Sexing every single hour." Usopp interrupted.

"Wha… what?" Nami cried.

"Yohohohoho, you see it too Usopp-san? I often watched them. You know, it is better than any porn clips." Brook said.

"Chopper watched it too, right Chopper?" Usopp grinned, looking at the super blushing Chopper.

"NO. I DIDN'T! I SWEAR IT!" Chopper cried, doing his best to hide and cover his reddening face using his tiny hands.

"STOP IT! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR ANY DIRTY WORDS. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?" Nami huffed, glaring angrily toward Usopp and Brook. "Now, go on Chopper."

"Well, you don't understand us because you are still inexperience…" Usopp mocked, but in a second a punch launched on his nose. "Gwaack!"

"Shut up!" Nami spited, punching Usopp's face again and again like it was a punching bag. "Chopper continue!"

'Scary!' Chopper wept. "Couple of days, I think it is just a week when they officially became in a relationship when we found out that they broke up because she suddenly left him after she had stolen money, any important documents, and every expensive things, without any explanation." Chopper stated.

"Now, she is here, she comes back again." Usopp added.

"Oh my god!" Nami astonished, her hands unconsciously lifted just to hide her mouth. She could not believe of what she had heard.

"Ah yeah I think, I remember you now." Sanji said. He slid his hand unto his pocket to get a cigarette. "Now just tell me, how much do you want this time?" He clicked his lighter and had never bothered to look at the beautiful Georgina.

HOW MUCH DO YOU WANT THIS TIME?

WHAT?

Did he really ask her that way?

Did our navigator hear him right?

Was she just dreaming?

Was the world going to an end?

Did the lovecook Sanji actually turn down this beautiful woman?

Nami's hands lifted to rub her eyes, rubbing them hardly just to see if she had seen it right, clearing her ears if she had heard him right. But, everything was clear, her sight and her ears.

She even pinched her skin just to wake her up if she was dreaming, but the sore in her skin made her realize that she was not dreaming. She was in reality.

"Oh well, you slighted me, so I'd like you to pay me an appropriate compensation." Georgina said, grinning so devilishly like she had won in a bloody fight.

"Chopper, can you please get my checkbook in my office?" Sanji asked, shifting his gaze to look at Chopper.

"Okay." Chopper obeyed. It was like this kind of scene was not really unusual to him. He just immediately ran so fast just to comply Sanji.

HUH?

WHAT?

What was exactly happening?

'I thought you love him but why are you asking him for his money? Why?' Nami asked within her. She was so damn shocked because for her the word love was precious, it could not be ignored and it could not buy by anything even money.

So why this woman wanted to exchange her love for money?

Yes, no doubt that Nami loved money. Fact from fact, she would do anything and everything just to get her precious money, but when she had met this man, the curly brow man who stood distance away from her, everything suddenly changed because money itself became useless, it was not anymore important.

Right now, the most important for her was to be with him, to see him every passing time of her life, to love him without any condition, and any price tag.

She had realized it when she got her part in the treasure One Piece, though she was so rich, she was not really that happy, she had still lacked of joy and happiness because Sanji was not with her.

Money could not actually make her happy. It was just a temporary happiness.

Chopper finally arrived in a couple of minutes. He immediately gave Sanji his checkbook.

Sanji extended his arm to get the checkbook, then ripped one of the page before he said. "Write the amount you want on this blank check, and put an end to this for me."

"It can't be helped, then." Georgina said, immediately took the check out from Sanji's hand.

DAMN.

Nami really hated it, this stupid scene. She cursed this kind of scene that involved with a woman who would do anything just to have the money she wanted.

She used to be in this exact scene and this woman was her splitting image when she was still in the cruelty hand of Arlong Park. The shit merman she really hated and despise more, who took her foster mother, her childhood life and everything in her.

In point of view, this woman used to be just like her. Nami used to be engaged in a scene like this, many times in a row.

It was all involved with money.

She could not blame this woman if she was too addicted to money, being hypnotized by its price and worth because she used to feel it too.

But now that she finally reached him, this man, who could possibly make her life happy, he had completely turned into a stranger because of money.

This damn money was involved again.

This time she would never ever let that money corrupt anyone's life. Over her dead body.

'Just for you to have your damn money, you don't care who is going to be hurt.' Nami huffed.

ANGRY WOMAN?

Well, fellowship, as you see, our navigator was really in a great rage.

Fire over here. Fire over there. Massive fire everywhere.

Her eyes were burning with hot rage with an incredible steam that kept coming from her both ears, nose and mouth. She gripped her hands into very tight fists, readily enough to kill this bitch who tried to steal money from her Sanji-kun again.

She was very angry because this man was now a stranger to her.

She was very angry because all she did was to stand there right in the corner, watching them without doing anything just to stop this scene from coming.

She was very angry because she used to be exactly like her.

'I am sure it is really hurt for Sanji-kun. I know it because I feel it too. How many times did this scene happen? How many times did he try to act and pretend like he doesn't feel anything? How many times did his heart break for too many failure relationships? How many times did he cry, his heart cry?' Nami grieved. 'It is all money's fault that's why he is always suffering. Damn, I hate money. I really hate money! Why did money even create? Who stupid hell created this damn money? Money used to manipulate and control my life, now it is trying to control Sanji-kun's life and I will not let it happen.'

She was in a great need to do something just to stop this pathetic scene.

She was obliged to destroy this scene.

'I hate those bitches who hurt Sanji-kun. I curse them, hate them, I want to kill them. They are all bullshit.'

Her anger was overwhelming that created a very scary and alarming atmosphere to her nakama that stood near beside her.

'What the heck? What is wrong with her?' Usopp freaked, stepping away from Nami.

'Yohohoho, I smell something trouble.' Brook laughed.

'Graaaaaaaaah. She is scary!' Chopper cried, leaping behind Usopp just to get away from Nami.

'I need to do something to get rid of this scene…' Nami thought. She was fuming so excessively like she was a volcano readily to burst its magma and larva. Her eyes kept on rotating everywhere, so eager to look around, looking for something. She spotted something on the table, then she abruptly hopped to snatch it.

"Oi, Nami what are you doing?" Usopp cried.

"Nami-san, wa… wait up!" Brook cried.

'Gaaaaaaaaaaaaah!' Chopper cried.

Her anger was so overwhelming that made her blind and did a thing she should not do. She was not aware and did not actually care what she would do next.

SPLASH!

It was a water with the convoy of flowers that came flying and hitting both Sanji and Georgina. It was totally making them stop from their current transaction due to too much shocked and surprised. They were absolutely gasping and gaping incessantly.

Forsooth, Nami got the flower vase on the table and used it to wet them, spattering and splashing it just to completely stop them from what they were doing.

"Gwaaaaaaah!" Chopper screamed, running so frantically back and forth.

'Gaaaaaaaaaaah!' Usopp screamed too but no sound at all.

"Woaaah! I didn't see it, just do it again Nami. Just do it again. Do it again!" Luffy cheered. He just arrived after eating every food he saw in the dining area.

"Nami-san, you are so harsh, yohoohoho." Brook just laughed.

"Aaaaaaaaaaah, you bitch!" Georgina yelled so loud. "Just look what you have done! You ruined everything, the check and my expensive outfit!" She was looking so desperately on her outfit while using her expensive high heels to tramp nonstop. It was her own way of showing her irritation.

Sanji quickly laid his ire eyes to his nakama, particularly to Usopp, telling him with his glare why he did not do something to stop Nami.

"Usopp!" Sanji huffed. He was removing the petals from his head.

"Sanji, believe me… I tried really hard to stop her but she kept on punching at me." Usopp explained.

"How can you pay me when you are just a stupid maid! Even if you pay me with your life you can't even afford this clothes of mine!" Georgina yelled.

"I will pay you, so please just calm down." Sanji blustered. He looked at Georgina so annoyingly, then he slowly moved his gaze to look at his goddess. "What are you doing? Who told you to do that?"

"Well, it is fine for me, you should say so." Georgina said, flicking her wet hair.

"What the hell are you trying to do?" Sanji said, asking Nami. His eyes glued on hers.

"Why don't you feel satisfy?" Nami suddenly asked.

HUH?

WHAT?

"What..." Sanji said. He was about to say his next words but stop in midair and chose to shut his mouth when Nami spoke again.

"ANSWER ME BITCH!" Nami shouted. She did not really care if her shout continued ringing all over the place, because all she knew right at this moment was to defend the right of her lovecook.

BITCH!

BIIIIIIIIIIIIIITCH.

'Bitch?' Sanji, Usopp, Brook and Chopper thought.

"You, please answer me?" Nami pleaded. Yes, her voice sounded low and pleading. It was also obviously shaking terribly.

"Who do you think you are to boss me around?" Georgina ranted.

"Did money satisfy you?" Nami asked, stepping little by little toward Georgina.

"Hey you… bitch… bitch, don't you dare come near me…" Georgina frightened. She tried to drive away Nami but she was promptly cut off when she had came to realize that Nami was now stood right directly in her front.

They were inches apart.

GULP. GULP. GULP. GULP. GULP.

Usopp ended up gulping really hard. 'If I am this woman I would run quickly away from Nami.'

Brook swallowed his saliva though he did not have one. "Oh no, I better ask Georgina-san if I can see her panties before Nami-san kill her. Yohohoho'

Chopper was gulping. He was still hiding behind Usopp. 'I must call a doctor, doctor… doctor… but wait, I am a doctor. Georgina needs a medical treatment after facing Nami's wrath.'

Our lovecook, all he did was to gulp hard, swallowing everything on his throat while watching them. In a point of fact, he did not really know what to do, on how to act and what to say.

Yes, he was planning to stop his goddess but part of him told him not to participate and let her handle everything because he trusted her.

"Did your stupid money satisfy you? Huh, tell me?!" Nami huffed.

STUPID MONEY?

HUH?

'Wooaaah? Did she really say STUPID MONEY? Oh my, Nami is right because the world is really going to an end.' Usopp thought.

'Am I hearing it wrong? Nami-san just added the word stupid to her precious money?' Brook thought.

'Eeeeh! Is this really a reality? I want to wake up!' Chopper thought, slapping his face.

STUPID MONEY

'What the heck? What's happening? Stupid money? Did she really say it?' Sanji thought.

'Stupid money? I don't think so because money don't have face like Usopp.' Luffy thought.

"Did money satisfy you and give you everything you want?" Nami chided.

"Yes…" Georgina said. She was about to say when Nami immediately interrupted her.

"Is your money more important than someone else, that's why you have to choose money over the man who used to love you? Did Sanji-kun hurt you that bad just for you to treat him like nothing? Did he do something awful, unpleasant, harmful? Please, tell me?!" Nami asked. It was in a way of pleading while she kept on gripping Georgina's hand so tightly.

WHAT?

Chopper, Brook, Usopp, Georgina and Sanji were all frozen in shock, astounded enough to speak and for our Pirate King, he was jumping excitedly, cheering his navigator.

"Go Nami. Fight Nami. Beat her up to the pulp."

"You can't even answer my question because he never hurt you. He would never ever think of hurting you. You have came back again to tell him you still love him, right? But if you do really love him, you would never ever think of accepting his money even he insisted. But in the end you quickly accepted it and showed your real identity and your stupid intention." Nami snapped. "I don't understand why you keep on hurting him when all he wanted is to love you and you will love him back." She grieved, her tears began falling from her beautiful eyes but she just wiped them immediately.

"I left him because… because he was too kind, too nice, too perfect for me as my boyfriend… and he didn't really deserve a woman like me." Georgina explained, trying to avert her eyes from Nami's chocolate eyes. She was kind of guilty.

"So now, you are trying to tell me that he deserved to be broken, that's why you suddenly left him behind or in the first place you had shown up just to get his attention and seduce him because of his title as one of the billionaire, who has so many money in his pocket?" Nami pointed out.

BULL'S-EYE

Georgina quickly lowered her head, feeling so shamed, embarrassed and humiliated. She did not know what to say and did not even know how to defend herself, when it was all the truth.

"Uwaaaaaaaaah!" Chopper wept so loud.

"Chopper, why are you crying? Oi idiot, stop crying." Usopp hushed.

"Waaaaaaaaaah!" Luffy cried too.

"Oi oi oi, Luffy you too?" Usopp asked, shifting his head to look at Luffy.

"Because Chopper is crying, I am just mimicking him." Luffy said.

"Oi, you are not funny at all!" Usopp yelled, slapping Luffy on his head.

"Usopp-san, you are crying too." Brook said, pointing his finger to Usopp tears that kept streaming down on his cheeks.

"No… I am not… really…" Usopp sobbed, wiping away his own tears.

"I am going to cry too, though I don't feel like crying." Brook said.

They were crying in sympathy of what their nakama Sanji had gone through in the whole three years, though he did not say anything at all because he was pretending okay and always trying to hide his own tears, but they knew it. They knew and felt what he really felt, that he was hurting, that a great pain kept tormenting him.

Sanji just stood there gaping. He was absolutely paralyzed by his goddess sudden statement. 'Nami-san…' He did not really expect in a billion percent that his goddess would understand him, especially his new personality. He did not expect that she would fight for him in his behalf. He did not know that she would become his own voice to provoke his right.

"Sanji-kun didn't deserve to be alone and to be broken. He deserves everything, to be happy and to be loved. So, why didn't you love him just like what he did? Yes, he was always acting like a puppy when it came to those pretty women, just like you, but he just did it just to show how much he respected them. That's why I really hate you… all of you… all of the stupid bitches who have made him cry. I freaking hate you!"

GULP. GULP. GULP. GULP. GULP.

Her nakama could not stop from gulping.

"You will pay for it! I swear, you will pay for it!" Georgina cursed. She ran so fast away from them, outside the mansion. She did not care what was her look, as long as she was distance away from Nami.

Nami moved to stand right in front of Sanji.

Sanji, on the other hand, was still in the process of great shock. He could not even face her, his goddess.

"Sanji-kun, look at me!" Nami commanded. She raised her hand and launched her punch to Sanji on his head.

Sanji lifted his gaze to see her. He was not really that aware of their closeness. In fact, Nami was standing in her tiptoe just to meet his height. They were so close enough like kissing.

GULP.

Sanji forced all his strength and might to control everything in him, his desire, lust, devotion, love, addiction, and everything in him just to prevent himself from wanting her more, now that they were so close enough.

"I am so angry on what you did. You never really failed to disappoint me, do you?" Nami chided.

Sanji did not say anything. He really did feel ashamed because she was right. He was really a big disappointment.

"Why do you always try to solve everything with money? Can't you see anything but money? Aren't you the same as those people you scorn? Why did you have to change so much? You are not anymore the Sanji-kun I knew, the Sanji-kun I want to meet… because you are just a big stranger." Nami exhorted, looking at him so sincerely before she turned away from him, leaving him behind.

While she was walking away from them, from her nakama's sight she suddenly lost her consciousness and totally falling to the floor. She had collapsed on the floor.

"NAMI!" Her nakama frighteningly cried. They were ran immediately so fast just to get her.

"Nami-san!" Sanji cried. He immediately sprung to hold her, calling her name while touching her face so gently. "CHOPPER! HURRY!"

Petals continuously fell down on her head. She was really so curious about it, so she looked above to see it.

There he was seating on the branch of a very old rotten tree. He was holding a beautiful bouquet of roses on his hand.

"Sanji-kun, what are you doing?" Nami asked happily.

"I'm just giving you a flower." Sanji just said, plucking the petals and throwing them to her.

"What a beautiful flower!" Nami awed.

"Do you want it? Then, here…" Sanji said, offering and extending his hand to give Nami the bouquet.

Nami attempted to stand by her tiptoe just to get it but dismay and disappointment engulfed her because she could not even reach it.

"What? You can't reach it? Then try harder." Sanji said.

"I will never give up, Sanji-kun!" Nami cried, jumping so high just to get it.

"Give up!" Sanji said.

"No, I will never ever give up!" Nami huffed. She really wanted to get it, to smell it, and to touch it.

While she was reaching for the bouquet, her hands unconsciously tried to reach the man who was holding it not really the bouquet. She then finally came to realize that she was not really reaching for the bouquet because she was reaching for him, to get him, to touch him and to feel him.

"Give up?" Sanji asked. He loosely sat on the branch of the rotten tree

"No. I will just climb for it!" Nami said. She started to climb on the rotten tree.

"Then climb!" Sanji just said.

"Yes, here I am!" Nami cried, but when she was about to hold the other branch of the tree, the branch suddenly broke and she fell. "Kyaaaaaaaaaa!"

"Nami-san!" Sanji called out for her.

She could not get enough of him calling her name that way. It was so soft, so beautiful and so warm. It definitely soothed her soul, but she was absolutely falling.

NAMI-SAN!

It was so sweet, soft, full of worry and love. She really loved it.

FALLING.

NONSTOP FALLING.

She was still falling until he was faded away from her sight along with the rotten tree and totally replaced by the blackness and darkness.

She was being completely swallowed by the darkness.

"SANJI-KUN!" Nami cried, but no matter how many times she had cried for his name there was no response.

She was still falling and kept swallowing by darkness.

"SANJI-KUN! SANJI-KUN! SANJI-KUN! SANJI-KUN! SANJI-KUN!" Nami cried. She kept calling for his name, but there was no response coming from him.

FALLING.

Her eyes met his eyes.

"Are you okay?" Sanji asked. He was staring right directly at her big chocolate eyes. His eyes full of excessive worry.

"Where am I? Where is the tree? The flowers?" Nami asked him.

"You are in my room and there is no tree nor flowers. You are just dreaming." Sanji said. He was kind of wondering about the tree and the flowers, but he immediately shoved them out from his mind. "Are you okay?"

"I think… I am." Nami said. She was still gasping for an air because of her dream.

Sanji sat down near beside her, on his bed. He was breathing in too much relief because his goddess finally woke up, but he made sure that she did not have noticed him. "I tried to wake you up because you were dreaming, a very awful dream."

"I thought I am falling… I thought it was true." Nami exhaled.

"It's okay. You are okay now." Sanji soothed.

Suddenly, out of the very blue, Nami came to find out that she was lying on a dainty soft king-size bed. Oh my gosh, so the scent like a rose things she had smelled on her dream was this room, because everything in this room smelled like a rose.

'Waaaah! He is telling the truth that we are right now his bedroom?' Nami cried within her head. 'Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! I can't really believe it.' She started looking so eagerly and desperately around, then right away her eyes came in contact to Sanji's bare skin, his upper nude body.

Yes, he was not actually wearing any upper cloths. He was definitely showing his perfect upper body, those perfect abs and those perfect muscles that stored his powerful strength.

Nami was too eager to watch him than anything else, such a perfect body for a man just like him.

"Do you want me to catch a cold or what?" Sanji said. He absolutely broke the awkward silence. He even asked it because he did really notice that his goddess was looking at him, particularly on his upper bare skin.

He was actually about to wear another cloth, owing to his goddess recent rumpus, but immediately stopped because of his goddess loud moans. He was automatically got alarm when she kept on moaning because she was having a nightmare.

Nami blushed. 'OMG! He might think that I am pervert for stealing a glance on his body.' Then she shook her head. "You really deserve it!" But then headache struck her. "Ouch, my head hurts." She touched her head and gently rubbed it.

Sanji stood up to get something then came back instantly and sat back on the bed. "Here, just take this medicine." He offered, giving her the medicine along with the water.

"Huh?" Nami taken aback. She lifted her gaze to look at him, really confused.

"Your head hurts, so you need to drink this, that's what Chopper told me." Sanji said.

"Ah… thank you…" Nami thanked. She got the medicine from Sanji's hand, then drank it immediately without any hesitation.

This was the very first time that she was admittedly allowed to enter his bedroom.

When she became a housemaid, she was prohibited to enter. Sanji always reminded her to stay away from his bedroom. She was not even allowed to take a peak because he told so.

So now that she was finally here, lying right on his bed, this was her big chance to explore it.

Her eyes hungrily and desperately looked all around, wandering and searching everything, not really planning to skip even a tiny bit of details.

Eyes there.

Eyes here.

Eyes everywhere.

'Even though he is a man, his room is really clean, so beautiful and it smells so good. It is also huge but simple just like him.' Nami thought.

"Chopper has also told me that you need to rest. You suddenly lost your consciousness because of your daily strain." Sanji explained.

"Ah… um… well, I often feel dizzy, so no wonder." Nami replied.

"You should tell Chopper about it. If I know that this would happen, I shouldn't make you a maid."

"It's already happen, so we better move on."

"I didn't say that you would clean everything. In fact, I tried to stop and even prevent you to do anything that can harm you. Your only job is to watch my place for me, that's all."

"But I am a maid, Sanji-kun!"

"I know… but you should better stay in your room to relax, sleeping, playing, watching, or sketching some unfinished maps…"

"Sanji-kun, I am a maid, it is my job to clean not to act like a queen!"

SILENCE

AWKWARD

THE LONG AWKWARD STAYED FOR ABOUT A FEW MINUTES.

"Nami…" Sanji muttered. He spoke her name so softly and out of the blue, but then quickly shutting his mouth, gulping so hard. "Nami-san, how took you so long?"

"Huh?" Nami gaped. She was completely astounded. Her eyes kept expanding even larger while she was looking at him. It was like the air suddenly choke from her lungs.

WHAT?

WHAT DID HE SAY?

Sanji lowered his head, looking at to his shoes, his hands rested on his knees. "I have been waiting for you in the past three years but you never came back into my life."

WHAT?

'Wa... waiting for… who…? Me...?'

"When we accomplished our dreams, all of us, the Mugiwara Pirates that I finally found this beautiful wonder of All Blue and you nearly drew the entire world map, that was the time, I definitely wanted, to damn in a great need, tell you what I really felt, not just as nakama or as a family, but someone who could complete my life. But then, I realized that I needed to steadfast and wait because you didn't yet done your world map…"

Nami could not stop from blinking and gulping several times while she was listening to his confession or revelation. Her heart kept on throbbing so rapidly. She was dying enough to hear him.

"I decided to hide everything again particularly my undying love for you and just wait for you until you would draw all your world map, but when you finally done your world map, that I already planned my moves to tell you everything, then you just disappeared. I tried so really hard to find you, to search for you, and to seek for you, in your village and all over this damn big wold. I even started paying and begging everyone to look for you… but I didn't find you. I even waited patiently that someday you would come back, that I could see you one last time but you didn't still show up. You were… you are too far away from my reach. Until one day a thought suddenly crept into my mind that I better moved on and completely erased you in my life, as someone I badly need, then I began dating every woman I met in a hope but in a hopeless way that one of them could replace you, but I was totally wrong because they could not. They could not replace because my soul would not let it happen." Sanji revealed.

Nami was speechless. She was just staring at him, no words came through her mouth, so really speechless.

"I tried to feel that they were important as you. I tried to understand them and even wanted that our feelings would be mutual, but to my painful expectation, my relationships just ended up with that shitty sentimental scene of they had stolen my money and left without saying anything. If only they knew the respect, the trust, the loyalty, and the support just to make them felt special and make them stay and never wanting to be with another guy, but I think, they all just left me because they knew that even though I was with them it was just my physical appearance because everything in me, emotionally and mentally, just everything, was always with you, and no matter how much they tried to please me, they could replace you… no one could replace you… here in my heart. Your perfection was still buried inside my head and my soul."

'Through this sheet… I can feel him, his sadness.'

"All my goal, ambition, and dream… I already accomplished them but there was only one remaining and that was to find that certain someone who could complete me. Someone really special that I could lavish her with my devotion, my love. Someone who would love to create a family with me. I wanted nothing more than to find her, to give her with everything she could ever think. I could be her knight in the shining armor, a provider, a shelter, and her own confident. I was really hoping that it would be you."

'Sanji-kun…?' Nami thought. She wanted to say something, wanting to say something so badly just to pull away the sadness in his face. If only her mouth would allow her to say even a single word just to tell and prove him that it was not too late for him to find that someone because she now came here, returning back to his life even though it took her there years.

She was here, lying next to him. She was willing to be his someone, as long as he would allow her.

Sanji's lips curved slightly upward. He was trying to put a smile on his mouth. "But that dream faded away and there was nothing left. My reason I was chasing every woman was not because I was a big pervert but because I needed a woman for companionship and for those moments when I wanted someone to hold when loneliness crept on my nerves, to share my happiness and success, and to comfort me in my failures…"

'Why can't I say something? I want to hold him right at this moment but… my body prevents me to do it. I don't know why…'

"Three years of crushing loneliness had turned me into a man like this, bitter and hateful, a man of cruelty to others and a stranger to you Nami-san. Woman gave me the hard feelings I could ever feel, that's why I have grown to view them as an entirely separate species, one who is not to be worth of my trust for my own selfish reason." Sanji continued. "Can you blame me Nami-san, if I turned like this?"

'I can't blame you but I am different Sanji-kun. Why can't I say it out loud? I want to tell him what I really feel for him, that I love him.'

She needed to do anything just to extract the images of those women who had broken his heart and those painful memories he had experienced.

She needed to fetch the loneliness from his face, especially from his eyes because she really hated to see it.

She needed to do anything to see the smile on his face, most importantly to see her lovecook Sanji, pronto without even a tiny bit of thought.

She pressed her lips against him without thinking.
