Chapter Seven

"He's happy especially with a girl she's dating now." Yamisu bit her lip to keep herself from crying.

"Who's that girl?"

Yamisu looked away and walked over to the window of Yushi's room. "Shirimasen. I just heard it from people. You know, how rumours spread easily."

"Oh. Is she pretty?"

Yamisu touched and looked out of the window. "Not as pretty as you, Yui- chan."

Yushi smiled tearily and fingered the wooden frame that held the photo of him and her in each other's arms and smiling. "So, he's happy with her?"

Yamisu couldn't control herself anymore and the tears started flowing down her cheek. She turned to Yushi. "Forget about him, Yushi. Forget about Ijushi Takeya. He doesn't deserve you. He's the one who pretend to be in love with you to get your trust so you will tell him the truth about you and then blab it to the whole world so he'll be rich. Forget about him. He's not worth it."

Yushi walked over to Yamisu and hugged her. "Oh..Yami-chan, I just can't forget about him. He was my first boyfriend after all and he looked like he was really in love with me and I thought I could trust him…I was wrong…"

"No, you are not. He does…" Yamisu whispered so softly that Yushi can barely even hear it.

Late at night, when Yushi were still sleeping and Yamisu storked Yushi's hair as they were both sleeping together on the same bedAs best friends, not lesbians, hentaiand whispered," Gomen…gomen, Yui-chan."

She kissed Yushi on the forehead. "Please forgive me. I didn't mean to…"

Mitsui was practicing his kendo moves when there was a knock on the door.

"Come in." He replied.

"This is your practice room? Kakkoi." Yushi protested as she looked around at the room.

He responded. "Yeah. I used to play kendo here." He took a break and sat down, wiping his perspiration with his towel. "What brings you here?"

"Oh, just came to see how your practice is going."

Just then, there was another knock on the door. His mother opened the door and popped her head in. She smiled at Yushi and said," Yushi, do help me to see that he practices hard, ok?"

"Sure thing, obasan."

Mitsui groaned," Okasan, I'll practice hard and when I come home tomorrow, you'll see a big smile plastered on my face, ok?"

Mrs. Mitsui opened the door wide and walked in. She laughed. "Ok then, I'll go to the grocery." She bent down to kiss his forehead and whispered," Your father will be glad if he knows that you're playing his favourite sport."

Mitsui smiled weakly and squeezed his mother's hand. His father who had passed away leaving both of them with enough money to support each other was a famous kendo player.

"Well, I better be going now." She stood up and waved goodbye to Yushi. "Ja Yushi."

"Ja ne, obasan."

After Mrs. Mitsui walked out of the room, Mitsui asked," How about a match?"

"You and I?"

"Sure. How about it? Are you on?" Mitsui smirked.

"You are on."

"I have an extra stick." Mitsui grabbed an extra stick from a bag and threw it to Yushi who caught it swiftly. "Nice catch."

"Of course." This time it was Yushi who smirked. "Be prepare to be toasted."

"Oh no, because I'm going to win, imooto."

"We'll see about that, oneechan." Yushi swung her stick swiftly to hit him but Mitsui's stick hit against hers.

Mitsui grinned. "How's that?"

"Ohh, don't start acting arrogant towards me." Increasing her strength on her stick.

But as a guy, Mitsui has more strength. He put all his weight and strength on it. Suddenly, Mitsui slipped and lost his balance as he stepped on his towel that he threw on the ground just now. He fell forwards and knocked the wind out of Yushi.

Yushi groaned as the muscular Mitsui and his stick fell on her. "Itai…you are so heavy, Hisashi-kun." She opened her eyes and blushed when she saw that Mitsui's head fell on her chest. It was an accident!! Don't get dirty minded

Mitsui opened his eyes and looked at where his head was lying. He quickly got up and picked up his stick which fell on the ground after hitting on her Yushi's hand. He apologized and bowed repeatedly," Gomen, gomen." Realizing that Yushi was still lying on the ground, he offered his hand to her.

"Arigatoo." Yushi looked down and said softly," I better be going, it's late. Ja no." Giving a lame excuse and quickly walked out of the room before he could say anything without realizing that it was early morning. ^^6 She leaned against the door when she went out of the door and mused.

/I wonder if he felt my heart beating so fast. I wonder if things will be back to normal after what happened just now/ She slowly walked out of the house still pondering if things will be back to normal.

~*~

/What was that? My heart was beating so fast. Is it that I like her? Sona! Argh, what is wrong with me?!/ ^^;;

Mitsui rubbed his forehead, then remembered that it was where he fell on Yushi's chest. He stared at his hand and then at the door. He sighed and picked up his stick continuing practice.

Yamisu came out of the bathroom in a bathrobe, wiping her hair with a towel. "Hey, is Mitsui free tonight?"

"Shirimasen, naze?"

"Bezumi. I was just thinking that maybe the three of us could go out together."

Yushi looked away, blushing when remembered what happened earlier in the morning"

Yamisu grinned," How are things with you and Mitsui? How are you guys progressing?"

"We haven't even start anything, how can we progress?"

"NANI?!!" Yamisu sighed. "When are you gonna tell him your feelings?"

"Shirimasen."

"How about now? You can call him to ask him out."

"WHAT!! Sona."

"Come on, Yui-chan, you have to tell him sooner or later. Why not now?"

"I'm…I'm just not ready."

"Well, I'm ready and I'm gonna call him for you now." Yamisu ran and pick up the phone, quickly dialling Mitsui's number with Yushi trying to wrestle the phone out of her hand. Yamisu grinned as Yushi gave her a pleading look.

A male voice answered the phone. "Mushi-mushi, Mitsui residence."

"Hi, Mitsui. It's me Yamisu. Ogenkidesuka? Ano..sumimasen for disturbing you…but I wanna ask you if it's alright if you can take Yushi out. She's bored."

"Ano…eto…wakata, if she agrees."

"Of course she does. Well, she'll see you in Danny's. Ja."

"Ja."

Yamisu hang up the phone with a wide grin. "Well, it's settled. Go and change."

Yushi stared at her nervously. "What am I gonna wear?"

Yamisu hit herself on the forehead and stood up. "Come, I'll help you decide."

~*~

She stared out of the window and saw a dark figure standing behind the tree. The guy showed himself for a while but then quickly ran away.

"Sona…is it him? Did he see her? How can he find us?"

She whispered to herself. "Gomen, gomen. I don't want to hide this from you but if I don't, you'll never forgive me. I don't want to lose a friend like you. I don't want to. Please forgive me."

She wiped the tears away from her face. "I won't blame you if you'll be angry at me for the rest of my life."

"But please remember that I'll always be your friend…forever and ever…"
