Chapter Four: Verity between Lovers

"Let me see…" Ran began as she thinks about what Yuuya had just told her. "Quite a news…"

"And what do you think about Rei and Aya?" Miyu replied "we're gonna go downfall with all our plans."

"Yuuya shall spy and…"

"No need--" Rei almost whispered.

"Nee… Rei!!!" Yuuya shouted nervously. "we-- "

He smiled a little. Then he went back to his normal cold face. The icy stares and everything. His happy, comely look came and erased the serious one...

"…thanks for those-- I mean, umm…" he continued shyly. As if the Rei changed. The old Rei of yesterday.

Miyu noticed it and smiled. A guy in loved is a cool sight, especially if you know that his loved one is right…

"We know. We mustn't surrender!" Miyu exclaimed. "so what are you waiting for, Rei Otohata?"

"Hai!" he replied and went off. The three stared at the leaving Rei. They sure have been inspired by his affection, well, secretly. Yuuya was also thinking about him and his best friend's idea of keeping affection…

"I was just wondering…" Yosuke began "Aya-san… are you planning to have a boyfriend right now?"

His words seem not interfere her deafening silence in her thoughts…

"Hello?"

"H-huh? What was it? Nee, Yosuke-kun… you're around!"

The lad sighed. He wonders what she's thinking of. Is it…

"Again, as I was saying… a boyfriend for a pretty girl like you, Aya-san…"

He looked at her solemnly and began to hold her hand. His stares are really romantic. Aya was stunned, and moved quickly away. He let go.

"What do you mean?" she asked and looked at him.

His sly look really stunned her much that she didn't take any hesitation to go far from him…

"What if I court you?" he began "I may not be as famous as Rei is… not as handsome… but…"

"I am not thinking about a guy's status…" Aya said, and she recalled the times Rei never noticed her. Her feelings are reserved only for her. But then she didn't even feel that he's concerned, till the past days came.

"Aya-san, I'll be waiting for your decision…" Yosuke replied and stood up from his seating. That time, Rei came at the place too. He heard Yosuke's words, and thinks that he finally made a move… and that he has no chance.

"My entire fault…" he blamed himself, as he stares at Aya from apart. "I didn't think sometime I'll get this repentance… not in my entire life…"

Rei gazed up the sky, imagining the blushing face of Aya whenever he's around… that beautiful sight he misses… after that he hears her call his name. But it's in reality…

"Rei-kun!" Aya called in a friendly manner. She waved her hands to him.

"Aya!"

Then he went to her. How many times he's taking her for granted… many, many times he made her cry. Such a shame for him to actually response to that.

Thoughts continue to bug Rei as Aya worriedly watches him.

"Ano ne… Rei-kun," she asked softly "Daijoubu ka?"

"H-ha…? Aya…" he cursed himself. "I… I wanted to tell you… go--- "

"Nani?" Aya asked him.

"Gomen nasai… Aya-san, I can't tell you yet." He whispered to himself "ano ne… ikimasho…"

"Kuso…" he darted his eyes to Aya as he helps her carry some goods she had just bought.

"I'm sorry…" he said and looked down. Aya heard his words, and shyly took her stare on him. As they walked together, Rei began to ask something that he was just able to say.

"How about the… alibi…" he began "last night… what do they say about it, I mean… is it over?"

Aya blushed and answered his question, stammering.

"W-why… I don't know… if… if…" she stopped for a while and the words of Yosuke a while ago.

"What if I court you?" he began "I may not be as famous as Rei is… not as handsome… but…"

"Rei-kun… what do you think about Yosuke-kun?" she asked and Rei suddenly looked at her. He clutched his fist tight and looked at Aya intently.

"…"

"Aya… why don't you…" Rei said as he cursed himself again, "figure him out… I mean…"

Aya walked slowly as they pass by the shopping district. She remembered the stall that sells the beautiful piece of jewelry she and her friends saw.

She sighed heavily and Rei thought of it too. He has an idea formed in mind…

At the Hoshino residence…

"Aya, how's it going between you and Rei-kun?" her mother asked, after dinner.

"I haven't seen him lately."

"We're fine, Kaa-chan." Aya answered and smiled sweetly.

"Any sweet response yet?"

Aya blushed.

"Mom!" she exclaimed and blushed.

The next day, Ran, Miyu and Aya decided to go out after class.

"Gosh, I really don't intend to do my remaining assignments!" Ran exclaimed.

"Ran, I thought we'll go bathing on a summer beach party this vacation? Oh, don't say you'll go to a certain summer class!" Miyu began

"You will need to pass to go Ran," Aya said "or we won't be together at summer."

"Hai, Hai…" she said.

"If you'll be needing our help, we'll give you." Miyu said.

"Arigatou!" Ran said and clasped her arms to both Aya and Miyu. Aya noticed Yuuya alone.

"Nee, Yuuya-kun… where's…" Aya began.

"He has a job at the bar as a DJ." Yuuya replied exhaustedly, "and I need to run away because the scarcity of the girls there will never be happening"

"By the way, are you three going to the annual Fireworks Festival on the 2nd?"

"I'm sure Yamato will take me there." Miyu said "we've talked about it last night."

"Me…" Ran began "hmm… I'll go whether someone goes with me or not."

Aya became silent. She's sure Yosuke will tell her about it. But there's only one person she'll go with…

"Rei-kun! How's the job?" Yuuya called out as the turn of Rei is over. "hmmm… you tend to get a high salary because the girls goes here always! That's a very good advantage!"

"Hai…" Rei said "…"

"Where are you using the money anyway?"

"Ano ne…" he began "hi-mi-tsu."

"Kooee!" Yuuya cried like a kid. "hey! You've got a chance! Invite Aya on the Fireworks Festival! Isn't it a perfect moment?"

He smiled at him.

"Hai."

"So ikou yo! You still need to work till that day, ain't it?" Yuuya said "aren't you pressuring yourself?"

"Iie…" he replied. "I really need to do this,"

"You're becoming mysterious again…" Yuuya said to him. "alright then…"

Days passed by quickly that they didn't even notice it's the day of the Festival.

"Aya-chan, did Rei invite you already?" Miyu asked through phone.

"Iie…" she answered "I am not expecting either."

"Aya it would be nice if the three of us… with.. You know… will be much, much better!" Miyu exclaimed. "Ja! Oyasumi!"

"Oyasumi Miyu," she replied and hung up the phone. Aya placed her receiver down and lay back on her bed. "will he…?"

Aya, don't you ever expect… you know Rei… he won't…

Rei was back in the job, to finish his last minutes, and to finally do his part. Before that, decided to call Aya. Time has to come for him to confess his feelings. But he'll simply invite her first for tonight.

Picking up his celphone, he dialed Aya's number to invite her. "

"Moshi moshi…" Aya greeted. "Hoshino residence…"

"Aya…?"

"Ne… Rei-kun?" she answered gladly "you called! What's up?"

"Can you go with me… will you… go tonight at the fireworks display?" he said moderately. "I'll be waiting for you at the Shibuya square at 6:00…"

"H-hai…" she said as she was blushing. "I'm free… tonight."

Rei smiled. "well then, I'll be waiting for you."

"Hai… Ja!"

"Ja ne…" Rei said and hey finished their conversation…

"I did it!!!"

"Rei-kun?" the manager asked, "what's the matter?"

"A-ano… none!" he said and happily went back to his work. Several minutes have passed, and he's getting ready for the hour.

Aya too. She has fixed herself and went out their house after she bade at her mom. She felt nervous for that is the first time that Rei ACTUALLY invited him. Ran usually bridges them together, but now… she was thinking if she has got to do something here.

"Ran, I want to go with you!" Yuuya cried

"Oh, sure Yuuya… I want only if you'll treat me!" the girl answered with a wink.

"Of course…" he said, half reluctant. "I know the same old chant will remain…"

Everything for Ran…

"Oh, Yamato dear, it's so nice that we can spend our night together." Miyu said sweetly. "I'll just wait till you finish your job."

"Of course. Just wait for me, huh?"

"Hai…" Miyu answered happily.

Back to Aya, she's on her way to the said meeting place. Happily walking along Shibuya's sidewalks, she met someone who won't let her go away with Rei Otohata.

"Where are you going, my princess?" he began "can we go out tonight.. only you and I"

"Gomen ne, Yosuke-kun… I am going out with someone already" Aya admitted, and she continued walking. Yosuke grabbed her arm.

"Let go!" Aya cried out.

"Iie… unless I got a response from you…" Yosuke and Aya went to a café nearby. "I want to hear from you about my courting."

Aya was speechless. She knew her feelings are for Rei-kun alone, only for him.

Rei hurried to the Shopping district after he finished his job. He had the money to buy it. At last. Rushing to the jewelry store, he went in and fid the piece Aya was longing for. Counting his money, he can be able to give it to her. He approached the saleslady and she assisted him…

While Aya's still talking with Yosuke… and time passes by…
