Chapter Two

Yumi sat outside the famous coffee shop, Starbucks. During her travel, Yumi was amazed how Westerners were so into this café; whenever she would see anyone with white complexion, they were almost always carrying with themselves a white cup with a green Tiki-looking female or is that a mermaid?

The brunette chose the seat outside for a special reason, while she was there to rest for a bit from her somewhat very eventful flight, she was, as well, looking out for a raven-haired young heiress of the Ogasawara Empire. Thankfully, she only had with her a backpack filled with clothes and not a bulky luggage bag that she would had dragged everywhere she went. Actually, she could have opted that, bring a huge luggage for she was not sure how long she would stay in America or if she would be even staying there for a whole day. If she was lucky, she could be back in Japan within the next few hours.

She took a sip of her tea which was rapidly turning cold, and winced when the lukewarm liquid touched her tongue. It wasn't the taste she was familiar with, this one tasted like the one in tea bags that have been used ten times already. Gawd, they call this tea? Yumi thought to herself and pushed the cup away from her like it was a repulsive trash. Well it is repulsive…

Just thirty more minutes, and she would be able to see her beloved Sachiko. It had been almost six months since she last saw the girl that sets her heart ablaze. Six long months…

After their trip in Italy, things had been a bit awkward for the two lovebirds. The next morning after they made love, they went straight to the airport and uttered not a single word. When they reached their home country, Yumi went her separate way saying that if they come home together, it may raise suspicion that they were together in the trip. Sachiko agreed heavy-heartedly knowing that it wasn't the true case why Yumi would not ride with her. She knew she hurt her lover.

Weeks had passed and their relationship began to strain, the heiress was obviously avoiding her younger girlfriend, and Yumi, for her part, was still a bit depressed that Sachiko did not accept her marriage proposal. They never got the chance to talk after the trip so she was confused why her love turned her down. One day, Sachiko called her and asked to meet at the Ogasawara Mansion.

"Hi."

Yumi turned her back to the source of the voice and tried to smile at the person that just arrived. "Hello, Sachiko." The brunette answered. Before she went to the house, she had this feeling that something was going to happen. So anxiously, she waited for her girlfriend. Thankfully, they were confined inside Sachiko's room and they can talk privately.

"I'm sorry Yumi… I'm so sorry…" tears began to flow from her cerulean orbs that reflected longing and despair. Yumi seeing that her beloved was in turmoil, closed the gap between them and wrapped her arms on the taller girl's waist and nuzzled her head on the crook of Sachiko's slender neck.

"Hey.. it's okay.. I won't be upset anymore.. Please don't cry my love.." Yumi cooed at the goddess in her arms, but bouts of new tears and sobs hailed inside their secret rendezvous."Sshhh… it's really alright.."

"No!" Sachiko shouted and broke away from the young brunette's embrace. She felt her world suddenly turn cold after her action, she missed Yumi's warmth already but she's determined to do this, "you don't understand… I'm so sorry Yumi…"

Again, fresh tears erupted from those eyes that could freeze hell over, Sachiko gently stepped away from her love and gathered all strength to say the words she had practiced for days already, no, actually it had been weeks since she started practicing her lines but every time she was going to say them to the woman in front of her, she would lose her determination thus she drew away from her beloved. Guilt eating away her heart, but she had to say it.

"I'm sorry but I can't be with you anymore. We have to break up…" Yumi was too stunned when she heard those words, she wasn't expecting that. She knew that their relationship was rocky as of the moment, but she didn't foresee this one coming.

"I at least have the right to ask why, don't I?" Yumi said coolly, it surprised her that she could still remain calm in this situation. For Sachiko, it was totally different story. When she heard those words come out of her girlfriend's mouth—ex-girlfriend's now, memories came flashing to her head and one particular event stuck in her mind. It was exactly the same words she said when Yumi first rejected her rosary. And now, she was the one rejecting her love. Her chest began to tighten but she must at least honor Yumi's request.

"My Father, I think, knows about us. He did not say it directly but he kept hinting about it—that was the time before we went to out last trip to Italy." She was having a hard time to put her words together but she just had to explain to Yumi why she was doing this. "I know what my family can do, and I don't want anything to happen to you or to your family. Please understand that I'm doing this for you. I don't want to see you hurt."

"Sachiko…" Yumi said, she heard enough and couldn't take it anymore. Here was the girl of her dreams, deciding on her own about what will happen to their relationship, not even consulting her and it seemed that her girlfriend did not even want to fight for their love. She's not going to beg, after all, it was only her pride that's left of her. Her heart… she's leaving it here with her first and last love.

She walked away from the older girl and went out of the room. She needed to get out of there, and Sachiko was left standing, tears had started to fall and she did not know what happened. Realizing that Yumi was gone, Sachiko ran out of her room and chased after her only love. She caught her in the foyer, and closed the distance between them hugging her bestfriend from behind.

"Yumi, I love you… I love you Yumi… Please… Understand.." it was all she could think as of the moment. She turned the young brunette towards her and kissed her fully on the lips not caring who would see them. She just wanted to convey her love and maybe, just maybe… Yumi would find it in herself to forgive her one day.

"Excuse me, is it okay if we share the table?" asked a young woman in perfect English. Yumi just nodded in agreement, she was still a bit stunned after she was interrupted of her musing and when she got her bearings, she started getting herself acquainted with the stranger.

"Hi.. My name is Yumi." She extended her hand to give the stranger a hand shake, "You can call me April," the new girl said as she took Yumi's offered hand. "It's so packed this time of the year and all the tables inside are occupied. I'm actually here to pick up our client, I heard she's really rich and beautiful but I also heard she can be a total bitch.." April chuckled lightly; maybe she was trying to hide her nervousness.

"How about you, what is your business here in America? Are you Japanese?" the newbie added. Curious about her new friend.

Yumi smiled at her and took a sip before she answered, "Yes, I'm Japanese. I'm trying to catch up with my ex-girlfriend…" she answered somberly, "If I'm lucky, we could get together. I really miss her.." Yumi added- a small smile graced her lips as she remembered a raven-haired woman.

The two young ladies chatted more for a bit as they get more familiar with each other. They discovered that both were actually Asians though the new girl lived in America for quite some time now. She was an exchange student and when she graduated, she chose to look for a job in US than return to her home country. Both girls were engrossed with their conversation that they were startled when they saw the screen flashing the planes that had arrived. They scurried off towards the arrival area to see the person they were waiting for.

"Hey Yumi… Will you go on ahead? My bladder is full and I really can't hold it anymore." April said while frantically looking for the restroom sign. "I think it's over there," the brunette pointed out to the opposite direction.

She started jogging towards the restroom but April forgot something and turned back to where Yumi was. "Here, if you need any help here you can reach me here." the young Japanese took the card and placed it in her pocket, "Thanks April! Nice meeting you."

Yumi looked around everywhere to catch a glimpse of a certain raven-haired woman. She knew she would be able to spot her the moment she enters the lounge but right now, she can't feel the presence of her beloved.

Left… Right… Then left again… Yumi tried to cover more area so that she could easily spot her beloved. Then her heart started beating wildly, Sachiko's here… Yumi thought inwardly then she saw a flash of midnight blue hair and her feet suddenly moved on their own towards its target.

It seemed like forever before she reached her one true love, but for Yumi it was worth it. Finally, after so long, she was able to see her bestfriend, lover and soulmate. It's now time to bring back her love, she really just wanted to come home and settle down with Sachiko. Catch up on things, and then maybe plan their wedding.

Yumi hugged the older woman the moment she reached her. If she could convey all her longing to that embrace, she would do so. "Sachiko, I missed you." Yumi nuzzled her head in the crook of Sachiko's neck inhaling the scent she missed so much.

"Yumi…"

Her attention was called the moment she heard her princess's voice. She missed that as well, that loving voice and the way she said her name, it was like a lullaby that stills her speeding heart. "Come back to me, Sachiko. I know we can work this out now. Your parents, they-"

"I'm sorry Yumi. But I need to go. You know what my stand is, please understand. I love you Yumi, I still do and you would be the only one I will ever love. It really hurts me that we can't be together. But I'm doing this for us," Sachiko said this with hurt in her eyes. What she said was true, she has her reasons and she just hope that her sacrifice will not be for nothing.

"But Sachiko, your parents-" Again, Yumi was interrupted.

Sachiko gently pushed Yumi away from her and said,

"Go home, Yumi."
