Disclaimer: I do not own ani of the HYD characters! Well... I do hope they are though... =P

the ~~~~ lines are the thoughts of the characters.
"Engaged... I'm engaged.... I'm engaged.... I'm goin to be someone's wife... No no... Not just anyone... It's Rui... Engaged... Marriage..." Tsukushi chanted mindlessly. Rui, saw this and felt his heart flipped a little.

~She don't want to be engaged to me? She don't like me? Oh right. Tsukasa. I can't stand this anymore..~.

"Tsukushi, you don't like to be engaged to me? Is it because of Tsukasa? I mean..." Before Rui could finish this sentence, Tsukushi cut it off; "Yes! I mean No! Well... I don't know..." Tsukushi admitted. When she saw Rui's hurt expression, she can't help but feel bad. "I'm sorry Rui... I'm not sure if I'm ready to be engaged. I'll need sometime to think about it. Can I?"

Rui's expression relaxed. ~She don't hate me, she is just afraid.~ "Yeah, I agree it is too suprising. But do you think we should tell the guys? I'm okay if you don't want to." "I think we should... After all they are our closest friends right?" Rui nodded slowly and walked out of the room. "I'll tell your mother and mine. See ya."

As soon as Rui is out of the room, Tsukushi slumped to the sofa in the room.

"Is it because of Tsukasa?"

The words Rui said swarmed in her mind. ~Is it true? Is it really because... because of Tsukasa? I... I... Maybe... But Rui...~

Flashback

"Ru... Rui! Tsu... Tsukasa took my...my ball! Father gav...gave it to me on... on my birthday!" sobbed Tsukushi. Rui looked at the little girl in front of her and stood up. "Wait here."

"Tsukasa! Don't you think it's too much? She's just playing her ball!" Tsukasa, Soujiro and Akira were at the field, playing football. Well, playing football before Tsukasa snatched Tsukushi ball and making her cry. "Yeah! She didn't even talk to us! What's the point?"

~The point is she didn't talk to me... At all!~ Tsukasa haven't expected Tsukushi to cry, but when she did, Tsukasa was at a loss for action. He felt guilty, but instead of saying the truth, he shouted to Soujiro and Akira. "It's none of your business! Just shut up!" When he shouted, he put his hands, with the ball in them, on top of his head. "Give Tsukushi back her ball." Tsukasa turned, and saw Rui standing in front of him.

"Why do you care Rui? Never am I going to return her stupid ball!" Shouted an enraged Tsukasa. ~Rui! It's always Rui! Why? I'm more fun to be with instead of that Rui who always stares into space! When does it always had to be him?~ "Then I'll take it" With a quick motion, Rui snatched the ball in Tsukasa's hands and threw it towards Tsukushi, who was standing beside the field.

"Oh thanks Rui! You're my bestest best friend!" With that, Tsukushi gave Rui a warm hug. Although Rui noticed Tsukasa was shaking with anger, he hugged her back and walked away, taking her by the hand.

End of Flashback

It is Rui who always come to her aid. It's always Rui who advised her whenever she had problems. But Tsukasa... The boy who always tease her, yet took her with care whenever she was down. Tsukushi felt that she was torn, torn between the two boys who were her best friends. "What should I do!!" She wailed to the walls.
