Two Rivers

Chapter two: Invitation

***

 

 
"How can TK. give that to me..?" Matt was in deep thoughts that he didn't even saw a big limousine speeding up towards him....


"Dad, please…Stop..." Mimi pleaded, hoping he would stop yelling at her mom.


"Be quiet!" He yelled. "You need some respect, young lady! You know how it's rude to cut someone's sentence!"


"I-I'm sorry..." She added quickly.


"After this meeting's over I'll---"


But he couldn't finish his phrase when the car suddenly drove sideways. Everyone slipped down onto the floor, waiting for the car to stop.


"What the heck is going on?!" Mimi's dad shouted to Alfred, the driver.


"My apologies, sir." He heard Alfred saying, "But I think I just managed to hit a boy that instant, sir."


"What!"


Mimi also heard what happened and quickly stepped out of the car. She only had some bruises on her arm, but they weren't as bad as the boy lying on the cold ground.


She didn't hesitate a bit. As soon as she saw him, she runs up to the corpse and sat on her knees.


She picked up his head and laid it gently on her knees for comfort.


"Hey, are you okay?" She said worriedly.


Matt slowly opened his eyes to meet the most beautiful look he ever saw. But he couldn't hear was she was telling yet. His hearing was too severe.


An Angel, he thought when he saw the sun shining on the back of her hair, making her some kind of goddess. I can't be dead, am I? He wondered.


But soon, he could finally hear her call and looked straight into her eyes.


"Are you alright?" He heard her saying.


Matt nodded gradually. "Who…Who are you?"


"Mimi, don't touch him!"


Because of her father's yell, Mimi quickly stood up at the same time as Matt's head made a loud "Bam" once he touches the ground again. He moaned it in pain.


"Dad! Look what you've done!" Mimi shouted to him and kneeled back again.


"I said don't touch him!" His father said menacingly. "He can be dangerous!"


"How can he? He's hurt!" Mimi replied furiously.


"Don't speak to me with that tone, young lady!"


She ignored him and helped the young man standing up on his two legs. He wobbled for a minute, but he finally managed to keep his balance by leaning one arm over Mimi.


"Just let him go!" His father yelled.


At last, Matt's head didn't felt dizzy anymore and everything became visible in front of him. He shook his head for a while and looked at the girl next of him. He smiled.


"Thanks. I'll be okay now." He whispered.


"You sure?" Mimi was still not convinced.


"Positive."


"You heard him. Now let go off him so that we can finally leave!" His father complained.


"But, dad. His motorcycle is broken and we can't leave him like this." Mimi said.


"Fine, I'll give him ten bucks and then we're leaving!"


"Ten bucks? Is that all you can give, old man?"


Mimi's father looked from her daughter to the young man next of her. There was a grin on his face.


"What? Who do you call hear an old man?!"


"I am." Matt replied. He stepped forward to match Mimi's father who was just a few inches bigger than him. "Don't you know who I am?"


"No," Mimi's father responds irritatingly, "And I don't care either!" he yelled, clenching a fist in front of him.


"For your information, my name is Matt Ishida. I had a scheduled time delivering those things." he yelled pointing to his deliveries spread on the ground. "If I don't deliver them in an hour, I lose my job because of your stupid damn car!"


"Dad, please…ten buck-s-I mean Dollars are not worth to repay the damage for his motorcycle." Mimi explained.


"Not to mention it, that poor boy his job." They heard a voice saying.


Everyone stared right of them to see Mimi's mom standing next of the car. It looked like she was mad about something. Or rather someone.


"This boy has almost lost everything and you give him ten Dollars to live on? What on the world had struck into you?" She asked.

"Stay away, Miriam. This is between him and me!" he shouted to his wife.


"Look, mister." Mimi's dad finally said to end the conversation. "What do you want me to do so that you won't bother me again!"


"What do you mean I bothered you?! It is you who hit my bike, no?" Matt sarcastically said.


"Just TELL it to me!" Mimi's father became irritated by the way he responded him.


Matt was silent for a while and then took a glimpse behind him. He was staring at Mimi. Suddenly their eyes met, but Mimi swiftly looked away.


Matt grinned. He looked back to Mimi's father and said with a normal tone in his voice. "Why don't you let me live in your place for two weeks?"


"What? Are you crazy? I won't let a 'sort' like you enter my house!" he cried out furiously.


"Hey, hey, watch it buddy! I'm maybe not as high as you are, but don't you dare to insult me just because you're a rich guy. I'm not that type who must go to meetings and babbling about their stupid fortunes!!!" Matt yelled, showing him his menacing glance.


"Oh no! The meeting! Dear, we're going to be late." Miriam shouted to her husband.


"Wha--? Oh no, the meeting!" Mimi's father said anxiously. "Alfred, get into the car now! Mimi you too." He suddenly shrieked.

"But, dad. What about him?" she said.


"Ugh, you again." Mimi's father sighed. "Fine. Leave your bike here and stuff your deliveries into the trunk. We'll drop off your deliveries to the place and then we can FINALLY go to that meeting of mine!" He shouted irritatingly as everyone stepped into the car except Matt and him.


"Thanks, old man. I really owe you one." Matt smiled.


"Listen." He whispered so that only the two of them could hear. " I don't want you to call me old man again, but I'll let you stay for only one week and I repay that bike of yours!"

"Sounds good." Matt said, before stepping inside the car where he took seat next to Mimi.
