Waiting

Chapter One

Who Is She?

Disclaimers: I do not own the cast of HYD!

A/N: Presenting (Drum roll please.) Waiting, the sequel to Wait For Me! (Jeslene bows) Thank you so much for the comments and suggestions for my doubts.

I've decided to write a continuation to this one shot with a brand new plot (Which I've been thinking for ages) and brand new characters! No more Tsukushi. (Ducks from rotten eggs) And yes. Romance is in the air but not with Tsukasa. Bet you people won't bear to cut of his destiny with Tsukushi huh?

I won't reveal who will it be, but I can say that the flower girl would be playing an important part. She now has a name, Nirumi Yukizu! So, now let's get on to the story!

"A bouquet of." Nitumi smiled. "Forget-me-not!" She shook a finger at Tsukasa accusingly. "You don't think I'll be that forgetful. Domyouji-san?"

Tsukasa scowled at her. "Yes, Auntie Nirumi! You're already that old, need some help?" Nirumi glared at him as she placed the bouquet in his hands forcefully, causing some of the petals to drop.

"You are older then me, Domyouji-ojiisan! I'm only twenty! What about you? Twenty-five!" She retorted. Tsukasa grinned.

It's been a year since he knew her. Tsukasa had always ordered the blooms from her and she will always save a fresh bouquet of the flower for him. Even though sometime he will come late because of his work, Nirumi would wait until he came and collected his flowers, even if it was past business hours.

She was like the younger sister he never had and he was like the older brother she always wanted.

"So," He took the bouquet up gently and walked towards the front door. "Are you coming with me today?"

Nirumi shook her head a little as the chimes attached to the entrance twinkled, indicating that a customer had came in. "Say hi to her for me. I've got work to do!" Tsukasa nodded and went out of the door and towards his usual destination.

The sun set down the darkening skies, signaling the end of the afternoon. Nirumi stretched and yawned. It had been a tiring day for her. She look up to the wall clock and scowled.

One hour more to the end of the day.

She slumped down onto her chair and closed her eyes, making an attempt to take a small rest when the chimes twinkled again. She immediately stood up and put on her professional smile like she always did.

A childish voice filled the quiet shop, making Nirumi look down. A little girl at the age of seven looked back up at her smilingly.

"Konbawa Onee-chan! Can I have a bouquet of forget-me-not?" There was something familiar within the child's features. Something familiar, or to say someone familiar. She hid her confusion behind her usual cheery mood as she wrapped the girl's request up.

She then handed the girl her blooms and smiled gently at her, which the little girl returned back. "What's your name?"

The girl gave Nirumi some cash to pay for the flowers before replying in a cheerful voice.

"My name is Kirisano Tsukino! Arigato, Onee-chan! Ja ne!"

With that, the girl ran out of the shop, leaving Nirumi to ponder over what she said.

"Kirisano Tsukino?" She sat back on her chair again as she placed one hand over her forehead. "Where had I seen that face before?"

Why was it so familiar?
