"Arigatou!! Please come
again!"
"Ja! Omi-kun!! We will come
back!"
Omi smiled at the waving
schoolgirls who just bought more than 10 buckets of Freesias. He knew that
actually they didn't plan on buying anything, they just want to dwell on him
and his teammates. And of course, Ran hates them. But since Omi's already
experienced in using his innocent angelic smile to make them buy at least one
bucket each, Ran chose not to throw them out.
Omi walked back into the
flowershop and wanted to make a Freesia arrangement when he saw Ken sighing and
daydreaming on the table. He chuckled when Yohji knocked Ken's head and teased
him on falling in love, which by any chance, is true. Yohji and Omi could see
that by the blushing Ken did when he teased him.
/Strange, I wonder who is Kenken
thinking about right now. I'm so sure that he's in love with somebody here,
and I know *him* very well… and I thought Ken was straight. My detective
intuition is getting dumb… really./
/Ran…Omi…Ran…Omi…ahn…
what the hell am I thinking now?! I can't help it anymore to not thinking
about it and daydreaming in a midday like this! If Ran ever notices that, he
will come to me and whack me with some books of his and Omi will…be hurt
because Ran is near me… Who I must choose to lose? A best friend? Or a lover?
God…/
/Ken's been
daydreaming—again. What is he thinking? I wish he can share it with me like
that day…and maybe I can take my chance if he share with me…but who am I to
fool? He will of course choose somebody open like Omi or Yohji to share. He
wouldn't like to share it with Mr. Cold Icy Gargoyle, which is me. Jeeves./
Because they are busy with their
own thoughts, thinking about another and so on, they didn't realize that a
girl figure with a very polite uniform stood in front of the Koneko with long
pretty fingers tucked up on her hips. A slogan of Angel's Corp was sewed on
her pocket uniform. She took a step forward.
Ken became the first person to
notice her. He bowed and smiled an open smile.
"Konnichiwa! Can I by any
chance help you?"
Then when Ken observed his
customer face clearly, he froze. The girl widened her eyes when she met Ken's
gaze. The two brunettes look at each other in confusedness.
"Kenken, take the…" Yohji
also froze when he saw the brunette. The girl looked at Yohji and smiled
politely, bowing her head a little. Yohji was going to call Omi when the blonde
boy came out with their redhead leader following him from the back.
"Er…" Ken paused,
unbelieving what he is seeing right now. He's like seeing a mirror of himself
in a female version. The girl smiled at him.
Omi was shocked. Very, very
shocked, until he took more than two steps backward when he saw the girl with a
very familiar face named Hirokase Shizuka. Ran widened his eyes and his surprise
feeling made him parted his lips a little and couldn't get it close.
"Konnichiwa, Naoya-kun and
Tasuomi-kun. Hi also to you two, and…" she turned her green eyes to the
other green pair. She smiled. "You must be Ken that Naoya and Tasuomi were
mentioning about."
Ran gaze turned to the blondes.
He sent the older one a questioning look, Yohji just smiled a meaningful smile
and saying by his eyes, 'Play with me'.
"Umm, Naoya…and Tasuomi? Who
is…hmmph!!!" Yohji placed his hands on Ken's mouth and grinned broadly on
the female brunette. He asked Shizuka to come in and take a seat while he
dragged Ken to the corner with Ran and Omi following him.
When Shizuka has sat down, Yohji
served her a cup of tea and asked for a minute of excuse. He turned to where his
teammates are standing and caught Ran glared at him.
With his cold tone, Ran only
ordered a word. "Explain."
***
Shizuka took a sip of the tea
politely while the Weiß keep peeking on each other and her except of a certain
redhead who chose to cross his arms and glared at nothing. Omi blinked nervously
at Yohji, expecting him to reduce the tension. Yohji chose to look away while
Ken peeked on the 'twin' of him.
After a few slow minutes passed,
Ken couldn't stand the high tension anymore and was going to say something
when Shizuka snapped in.
"So, I bet you guys are
wondering how I can be in here, right?"
The Weiß looked at her before
turning their heads into each other. She smiled a polite smile and looked
straightly at Omi and Yohji. The blondes gulped.
"They," she pointed out at
the blondes, "Are my patients in Angel's Corp who escaped last night. When I
knew about it, it's too late, so I asked for their data and address. But then,
it's all fake. I'm sure it's not some kind of missed address since
Naoya-kun and Tasuomi-kun is not that clumsy. I can tell that by their eyes."
A silence before Ran got in.
"Then how do you find this place?"
"I search for the names Naoya
and Tasuomi from the phonebook and couldn't get the address. So I figure out
that they are fake names. I was going to give up when I saw this unfamiliar
flowershop. When I search for the address in the government, there should be no
flowershop here. So I thought why not…"
"Then why don't you ask the
police to come here and clobber us?" Ken asked.
Long eyelashes glimpsed on the
soccer player and small pink lips curved into a tiny smile. A strange, sad smile
but very delicately made and seems to be forced. Ken blinked at the girl who
turned her smiley face into a sad, almost depressed one. He looked at his
teammates, wondering what did he say wrong when she parted her pink lips and
started to whisper.
"You know, I want to tell you a
story."
Ken ignored Yohji demand.
"Stuck it in your ear Yohji, I'm in no mood in hearing stories."
"Oh you want to and you will
hear this story."
"Bug off Yohji."
Ignoring the annoyed mimic on
Ken's face, Yohji started the story.
"I know a friend. His name is
Shigeru. He also has a very close friend named Soota. Shigeru fell in love with
a girl named Tomomi. They love each other but since Shigeru is a very awkward
person, he never made any move. Tomomi isn't a very good love chatter either,
so their relationship stands that way. Until one day, Soota realized Shigeru
feelings to Tomomi and decided to do something about it. He said to Shigeru that
he loves Tomomi."
At this point, Ken's eyes
pointed to Yohji's direction.
"Of course, Shigeru shattered.
He didn't know what to do because he's afraid to hurt Soota if he ever dares
to confess to Tomomi. But since Shigeru is so deeply fell in love with Tomomi,
he's hurt—deeply. He even started to wonder about the friendship with Soota
which was so nice, but now he's confused. Now he has to choose 2 choices; one,
confess to Tomomi and Soota that he loves Tomomi or two, letting Soota has
Tomomi to himself and burn in hell."
Ken looked away. He wondered for
awhile, then soon his curiosity took advantage to him.
"…And what did Shigeru
chose?"
Yohji looked to Ken's chocolate
orbs and smiled. He turned away and headed to the door, ignoring the look in
Ken's eyes of confusion.
"That," he stopped and looked
over his shoulder. "Is your own choose, Kenken."
Ken widened his eyes at Yohji's
talk. The blonde walked away and before he left the brunette with depression, he
whispered. "Sometimes, you have to sacrifice something to get what you want.
Love is egoist, but… even if your love do hurt someone, it's your honesty
that matter. Do something before you regret in the future—and do it fast,
before you lose your time."
With that, the lanky blonde
walked away and left Ken alone. Yohji's right. Ken knew that very well. All
that matters to him are Ran and the feelings that kept unrevealed deep down in
his heart. He hates this and wouldn't let anything intrigue his demotion. Not
even his best friend. Let Ran choose, and if he does choose Omi…
/Then I will step back and let
them be…/
He clenched his fists. He knew
that he has to be a gentleman, has to step back if Ran choose Omi. But he also
knew that it would hurt like hell if Ran choose another person than himself.
There's just one question if Ran does love another.
Can you bear with the
unbelievable pain?
He closed his eyes. If he choose
to take Yohji's direction, it also means to take the big consequences about
forgetting Ran, go on with his life, and all the heart breaks that going to rip
him apart into pieces. Is he ready for that?
No.
He can't bear if he has to
leave Ran with somebody else. He's all madly fell in love with Ran. He can't
bear about letting Ran smile to somebody else. He could go crazy, he could go
kill someone. In this point of thought, the mask of genki Ken rip apart,
revealing each and all the true feelings in Ken's mimic.
The sudden anger at everybody
reveals in his burning eyes.
He hit the floor, hard. Too hard
for his hands to not hurt and bleed badly. He didn't stop, he started to hit
it more. Twice…thrice… then after five good punches on the solid floor, the
pain stroked him fairly and it forced him to stop. The blood dripped down
through his hand and arm, staining a dark red stain on his navy blue v-neck
clothe. He panted heavily.
Then slowly, he smiled a
satisfied smile. His face turned to a bright Ken like he always has in his mask,
but this time, he smile a true smile. He felt satisfied.
"If I have to break my heart in
order to get Ran, I will do it. I am sportive in soccer, and I am sportive in
love affairs."
Promising himself that, he went
down to his apartment, trying to get any good excuse that he could get if his
friends see his hand bleed. He swore in his heart, he will confess to Ran. And
he will do it soon.
