Chapter 6
Meis was relieved. She ran out of words to say. She didn't want to lie to Mitsui again, or maybe she was just afraid Mitsui will catch her again. She was afraid she'll lose the ONE!
On the other hand, Mitsui was so happy he had thought it over the night. It was all worth thinking. The bell rang again, it was time for thier lunch!
Mitsui saw Meis eating by herself on the school grounds. He approached her to continue the conversation.
"Listen, I didn't mean to lie to you... um... I was just testing you... that's it! Testing you."
"Yeah right!"
"Really! I didn't mean it! Honest!"
"uhhuh..."
Mitsui was showing no interest to what she's saying. Meis was really worried that time.
"Who is Sendoh?"
"You know, a player in Ryonan High..."
"No! To you! Who is he to you?"
"He's just a friend..."
"How friendly can you get?! Even if he was you're best friend, you didn't have to kiss him!"
"OK, Sendoh is my cousin... but if you don't believe me..."
"I believe you."
Meis was shocked! It was only yesterday Mitsui knew her but then He already know whether she's lieing or not.
They spent the rest of thier time together. Talking about stuff... Both of them think it would be a good friendship even though it started bad.
Little did the two of them knew, they were being spied on. Ryota and Rukawa was having a blast eavesdropping on the two of them. But, just thier luck, the bell rang.
Meis waited all day for Mitsui to ask her for a date. But the day end, no date. Meis was wondering about it. Mitsui was off to the gym so, Meis thought it was just because of b-ball practice.
She followed Mitsui to the gym and sat with Haruko and the rest.
"Hey! How'd it go?"
"Nothing..."
"He didn't ask you for a date???"
"Nope. No date."
"I didn't know Mitsui would be so cold!"
"No, he's not cold... It's just that, maybe because of the practice."
"You really like him, don't you?"
"... Yeah. He's really nice and all..."
"You shouldn't hit around the bush. Better make the first move. Mitsui can really be shy at times. And he's dedicated so much to basket ball. He might marry the game itself!"
Meis thought about it. The practice has ended and it was time to go home. Mitsui was with Ryota and Rukawa when Meis approached him.
"Hey! Guys, this is Meis Sakura. Meis, Rukawa and Ryota."
"Please to meet you both."
"We're also please to meet you Meis. Listen, we better get going... we both have dates to go to you know."
Ryota whispered to Mitsui
"Better make you're move! Enjoy!"
Rukawa and Ryota were gone. It's just Meis and Mitsui alone.
"Great shots!"
"Thanks!"
"So, you tired?"
"Tired?! Are you kidding?! I still got a lot of energy to burn!"
"Do you have something planned for tonight?"
"You mean besides the fact to go home and watch tv? Nothing! No plans!"
"Um... would you like to go to our house for dinner?"
"Do you realize you just asked me out for a date?"
"What's wrong with that?"
"Nothing, just that it's a guy thing."
"Well, it's the 21st century even girls are allowed to do it already."
"O! Ok, guess I'm just an old fashioned guy."
"Is it alright then?"
"Well..."
"Please..."
"If you insist."
"I insist!"
"Alright then. Is your house far? Because you know, my car is at the shop."
"It's ok. Sendoh's out in the car."
"Sendoh?"
"Daddy doesn't trust his little girl."
"Oh! Ok."
And they were out.
In Sendoh's car...
"Hop in!" Sendoh invited Mitsui.
"Thankx."
"Cuz, let's go!"
"Go where?"
"HOME."
"You're making me your chauffer."
"Well, Daddy expects you to do that."
"Are you sure about this?"
"Yes! I thought of it a million times already. Stop asking questions and just drive."
"Ok."
