Mission 2 - The Unexpected part 1
'Soujirou san, can you get me those lilies?' asked a sweet looking girl.
'Oh, it's Yuuki chan, how many do you want?'
'A dozen. Soujirou san, will you be free tonight?'
'I'm not sure. What's the matter? You need a date?'
'Iie . I just want to invite you to my house for dinner. My father's friend, Chef Antonio wanted to cook for us.'
'Chef Antonio? You mean the famous chef who cooks only for the royal family?' Yuuki nodded. 'Cool. I'll be there.'
'Great, see you at 7 then,' Yuuki said as she took her flowers and wave good bye to Soujirou
************
'Hey Soujirou, why are you smiling like a baka?' asked Mimasaka
'I'm no baka. I'm just happy because I get to try the food cooked by the famous chef Antonio.'
'Soujirou kun, since we are good friends, why don't you bring me along.'
'Mimasaka, since when we are good friends?'
'Don't be mean!'
'I'm just stating facts'
'Hey, I was being very polite to you,' Mimasaka said, showing his fist.
'You wanna fight?'
'Sure! I'm not afraid of you!' Hence they started their pesky little fight, creating a chaos scene.
'Break it off you two,' Rui hissed, ' I want to have a good rest.' Both Soujirou and Mimasaka stopped fighting immediately. They knew that no one, except maybe Tsukasa, would be more dangerous than a tired Rui.
'Please bring me along,' Mimasaka begged.
'Fine. But only this time,' Soujirou replied.
******
At Yuuki's Bungalow
'Soujirou san, I'm so glad you could make it.' Yuuki said with a big smile.
'I'm a gentleman who honour my words.' Soujirou replied , 'how ever, I brought a 'friend' with me.'
'Hi Yuuki, nice to meet you,' Mimasaka said as he held out his hand to Yuuki. Yuuki did not take notice of it.
'Well just hope that Mimasaka san will enjoy himself here. Soujirou, I would like you to meet someone,' Yuuki said as she tugged Soujirou to a middle-age man.
'Father, meet Soujirou, Soujirou, meet my father.' Both Yuuki's father and Soujirou shake hands.
'So I guess this must be my future son-in-law,' Yuuki's father teased.
'Father, don't say such things in front of a guest!' remarked Yuuki as she went pink.
'Well. A girl has to get married someday. I'll be very happy if this young man could discipline you.' Yuuki blushed even harder while Soujirou just smiled. He decided to join Yuuki's father teasing Yuuki.
'Don't worry Mr Sendoh. I'll make sure your daughter matures into a fine lady under me.'
'Can't wait for that day,' Mr Sendoh said and excused himself from the both of them.
'Why did you do that for?' asked Yuuki as the both of them headed for the garden.
'Cause I love the way you your whole cheek turn pink,' Soujirou answered simply. 'You know you look so loveable when you blush'
'Thanks,' Yuuki said shyly, 'I just hope that you don't say this to every other girl.'
'Don't worry, I don't' Soujirou replied as he kept his fingers secretly crossed.
******
'Hello? Hai, Tsukasa here. What?! Okay, I'll be right there,' Tsukasa put down the phone, took his coat and sped off to the hospital.
*****
'Thanks for inviting Yuuki chan,' Soujirou said as Yuuki showed Mimasaka and him the way out.
'I hoped that you've enjoyed yourselves.'
'Of course,' Mimasaka replied.
'We reach the door,' Yuuki said, jokingly.
'Hai. Oyasumi Yuuki chan,' both Mimasaka and Soujirou said together.
'Oyasumi,' said Yuuki as she kissed Soujirou on the lips. Soujirou was taken aback. He never thought that Yuuki chan would do such a thing. Afterall, she was always shy and quiet.
*****
'Isha (doctor) , how is she?' asked Tsukasa.
'Though the operation was a success, she is still in critical condition. If she is able to pull through tonight, she condition should be stabilised.'
'Arigato, Isha,' Tsukasa said as he started walking to the Intensive Care Unit. In the ICU is Makino Tsukushi, his childhood sweet heart.
'Tsukushi, it's me Tsukasa,' he said in a gentle voice that he had never use to talk to anyone else. He took her hand and clutch it tightly in his left hand while his right hand softly touch the smooth face of the sleeping beauty. 'Tsukushi, hang in there. I know you can make it. Tsukushi you got to be strong, you got to pull through it. Everything will be fine. All you have to do is to be strong and never give up. I haven't bring to Paris yet remember? I said that I would marry you and bring you to Paris for our honeymoon. Then we have our own family. You and I won't be alone any more. We will have kids. We'll have a dozen of them. I'll teach them how to play soccer and basketball and you'll cook for us. . .' Drops of tears trickled down his cheeks. 'Tsukushi, promise me not to give up. You know I'm a man of my words. I'll do what I've promised you but you got to give me a chance.'
*******
'Good for you Soujirou,' Mimasaka said as they make their way home, 'you get good food everyday.'
'Urusai, Mimasaka'
'Hey, don't be angry. Just don't forget your good buddy here.'
'Stop your nonsense or I'll tear your mouth up. How many times must I repeat myself? I'm not going to date Yuuki chan.'
'Why? She is so in love with you. Are you sure you want to break a poor girl's heart?'
'That's practically why I can't date her. She is serious about having a relationship with me. No way am I going to have a serious relationship. Don't forget, I'm a happy-go-lucky guy. I'm happy if I can find a woman to go to bed with.'
'Cool it buddy. Is that really the reason? I thought you were afraid to love.'
'Fine, that's part of the reason too.'
'Soujirou kun, what happened between Haruko and you were ages ago. You've to learn to let go.'
'Forget it Mimasaka. I'll never forget Haruko. I bring harm to any girl who has a serious relationship with me.'
'What happen to Haruko was an accident.'
'To others, yes, it was an accident. But to me, I know I'm at fault. And I'll never want anyone else to get hurt again.'
'Anything you say buddy.'
(~Ring~ring~ring~ Soujirou's handphone started ringing)
'Shigeru? New mission? Okay, we'll be right back.'
****** In the hospital
(~ring~ring~ring)
'Shigeru? Alright I'll be back immediately,' Tsukasa said before he hung up. He glanced at the asleep Tsukushi for one last time and mutter to her softly, 'I have to go now Tsukushi. Don't give up on neither yourself nor me okay? Deal? Deal.'
