Summer vacation finally came, but there were still club activities at school. Heiji, Kimura and Shingo were all practicing hard for the Inter-High School Kendo Competition.
"Ah! Heiji, you get a bad mood today? What'd happened? About Toyama-san?" Kimura asked Heiji while practising Kendo with him.
"Just quarrel a bit. She's talking on the phone with that Ikeda sensee again. I told her that he's not a good guy… "
"I'm just wondering…oh here she comes, Toyama-san! Finding your boyfriend? Heiji, go and have some LOVELY TIME." Both Heiji and Kazuha blushed slightly and their eyes turned into dotted size.
"AHO! See what I'll do later."
"Kazuha, what're you doing here? You've finished your aikido practice already."
"I finished it a while ago. I just want to remind you to meet at the Central Park at 6 o'clock today. When will you finish practice today?"
"Okay. I remember it; you don't need to remind me so many times. I'll finish the practice by five. Actually we meet all day, why do we need to go and meet at the park anyway?"
"It's a secret. So don't be late. See you later."
"Oh! Planning for another date again. A romantic meeting at the Central Park." Both Shingo and Kimura were eavesdropping his conversation with Kazuha.
"How dare you two eavesdropping our conversation?" Heiji was ready to attack them with kendo. "Chotto, we're just worried about you two. Let's continued our conversation." Kimura was trying to calm Heiji down.
"I just wondering why don't you two officially going out? You both love each other, don't you?"
"Aho! I told you guys that we're just…" "Childhood friends!" Both Shingo and Kimura finished Heiji's sentence. "We've heard this more than thousands times. Every time when we talk about your relation with Toyama-san, you always deny it. It's a pity for Toyama-san. Don't you have any feeling for her?"
"Huh? What do you mean?" Heiji was puzzled.
"You're hopeless. I mean do you love her?" Heiji's face blushed immediately, "I never think of any 'love' thing. Moreover, how do you know that Kazuha love me?"
"Can't you feel the love of Toyama-san for you? By the way, what've happen the night you watch my video?" Kimura had already noticed Heiji's face was reddened whenever he talked about that video. "Your face always turn beet red whenever we asked about it. What really happened?"
"Nothing. Just end up we were sleeping together."
"Lucky guys. I really envy you. You can sleep with such a kawaii girl." Shingo already looked at Heiji as his hero. "But you really don't have any feeling for Toyama-san? Then you'll not care about her meeting other guys huh?"
"What?" Heiji become aware on what he was saying about Kazuha.
"I saw her meeting with that Ikeda sensee in a coffee shop yesterday, they seem to go on quite well. If you don't love her, you do not need to bother about this."
"What? She met him, that's why she come back late yesterday." Heiji's veins almost popped up from his head.
"You're jealous, aren't you? You need to confess your love before other guys catch her up. Don't you want a more intimate relation with Toyama-san?" Kimura warned Heiji.
"Kimura's right. Toyama-san is so Kawaii, and she's kind and gentle, above all, she has a nice body." Shingo was totally agreed with Kimura.
"Aho! Why both of you always have these ecchi thinking?"
"Those three of you! When you'll stop talking and continue to practice kendo!" Their kendo teacher already lost his patience in waiting the three of them to join practicing kendo.

"It's almost six, it's all sensee's fault. I'm going to be late to meet Kazuha, see you tomorrow." Heiji was in a hurry to meet Kazuha. Heiji's cell phone rang, "I'm coming, Kazuha!"
"Heiji, it's me, Officer Otaki. Do you know how to contact Officer Hattori? We have a difficult case to solve now."
"I can't contact him either, but what case is it? Maybe I could help."
"That's great! Can you come to the Fujiya Hotel now? There's a murder case here."
"Okay." Heiji almost forgot the date with Kazuha, but Officer Otaki had already hanged up his phone. He tried to phone Kazuha's cell phone, but she did not answer the phone. "Aho! Why can't she answer her phone?" Heiji decided to go to Fujiya Hotel and apologised to Kazuha afterward, as this was not the first time he was late.
In the meanwhile, Kazuha was waiting for Heiji impatiently at the Central Park already, "Aho! He's late again. He's not answering his phone again!" Today was Heiji's birthday, so Kazuha planned this date and celebrated with him. She had spent the whole week to plan this date, and decide what she would wear. She thought that this would be a good chance to confess her love to him. "It's start raining! My new dress! There aren't any places for shelter. It's all Heiji's fault. Let's see what I'll do to him when he comes!"
* * * * * * * *
"Finally it has stop raining. It's so cold. When'll that aho come? Here he comes. Aho! Don't you know what time is it?" Kazuha already started shouting at Heiji.
"Gomen ne, I receive a call from Officer Otaki suddenly, so I go and help him to solve the case. It's not the first time I was late. Why are you soaked wet? Aho! Don't you know how to find a shelter when it's raining!"
"It's because of you! I've called your cell many times and you didn't answer. I'm worried about you! You know how many times you're in danger. This is for you. Happy Birthday." Heiji started unwrapping his present, "I almost forget my birthday, as okaasan was not here. My cell phone was running out of battery, sorry to let you worried. It's a watch. Thank you."
"I hope you will be on time in the future." Kazuha felt a bit faint and almost fell down, Heiji was quick enough to grab her arm. "You're so cold, and you get a fever also. Let's go back quickly or else you'll get a flu."
* * * * * * * *
"Finally we're back, Kazuha, you'd better changed your clothes before you get a flu. Kazuha!" Kazuha had collapsed down on the floor, Heiji put his hand on her forehead, and it was burning.
To be continued…That's it for this chapter…\(o)/ pls R & R. For Heiji's birthday, I just make it up (since his skin is so dark, it's possible a summer boy). Next Chapter --- Heiji was taking care of Kazuha?!
