"...." Talking
'...' Thinking
Kai frowned, not knowing what she's up to. Katerhine's eyes softened when she saw confusion in his eyes, without a second throught, she leaned forwards and kissed him full on his lips.
Just at this moment, a guard walked by them, he paused and looked at them, but said nothing then continued on. After he walked away, Katherine opened her eyes and pulled away from Kai, whom still looks surprised. "Come on, let's go!"
[Head Quarter]
"Jeez, just how old is Tyson anyways? Getting sick this easily." Maria said amused as she watched Nancy carrying a bowl of soup upstairs.
"Who knows... I just hope he gets better soon." Nancy replied with a smile and walked upstairs, disappearing from her sight.
Maria shook her head and turned to face Kenny, whom is sitting rigidly on the sofa. "What's wrong with you? Why are you so tense?"
Kenny blushed and shook his head quickly, "nothing's wrong."
"Don't tell me you still think I'm wearing too little!" Maria looked down at her red tank-top again then frowned. "Don't think you can make me wear more than this, it's summer!"
Kenny's face flushed even more, her tank top still doesn't cover up much, why can't she wear a T-shirt for a change? Maria looked at Kenny, wanting to say something, but her cell phone went off, she sighed and flipped it open.
"Hello?" Her expression turned into a smile. "John! Long time no see! I missed you honey." She said with a bright smile, Kenny slowly turned towards her.
"I know, I'm really busy lately, but... I can always sneak in some mid-night dates with you." Maria joked, listening to the other end.
Kenny turned away from her, disappointment and sadness appeared on his face, he sighed and walked off with Dizzi in hand.
"Yeah, I'll go to your engagement party, and I'll tell the others. K, bye." Maria shut the phone with a smile, another one jumping into the coffin of marriage.
"So, Kenny..." Maria started, turning towards where Kenny was, but found no one there. Where did he go?
[Building]
Katherine and Kai strolled out of the building easily, with Katherine in the front. Kai hasn't said anything after the kiss happened. Katherine glanced at his stoned expression and sighed.
"Kai, what's wrong? It's just a kiss." Suddenly, she remembered something and gasped. "Oh Goddess, don't tell me that was your first kiss!"
Kai glared at her immediately, she smiled nervously. "Exactly, it wasn't your first kiss, so it's not big deal. And besides, it was used to get us out of there!"
Kai looked at her, not getting her at all, just what kind a girl is she? "It was a tool... to get us out. Is that how you look at all your kisses given out?"
Katherine stopped walking and turned to look at him, she tilted her head. "What do you mean? There're many types of kisses, and that kiss was just on the spur of the moment. It was the only thing that could have gotten us out of that building. Or else, what would you have suggested? Talk to the guard and tell him that we need a way out? I don't think so."
"You take your kisses so lightly." Kai said slowly, narrowing his eyes.
Katherine chuckled and flipped her hair back, she looked into Kai's eyes seriously. "Kai, don't tell me you're falling in love with me."
Kai flinched immediately, and frowned just as quickly. "None sense!"
"Good!" She then took a step towards Kai and spoke seriously. "Kai, don't ever fall in love with me. We can keep in touch, we can do anything... just don't tell me that you love me, okay?"
He didn't say anything, she smiled and nodded, turning she began walking again, but then stopped and narrowed her eyes. "Um... seems like someone missed us."
Kai followed her gaze and saw a panther running towards them, he frowned, a panther in Greece? As if sensing his doubt, Katherine turned to him and smiled. "Don't worry, Chiriko's here to get us."
[Head Quarters- Tyson's Room]
"Thanks." He said weakly and fell back onto the large bed again. Nancy smiled and placed the bowl on the night stand beside his bed and looked at him carefully.
"Are you feeling any better?"
"No... my head still hurts like someone just cracked it open with an axe." Tyson moaned, and placed a hand on his eyes.
"You should feel better the latest tomorrow morning, the medicine I gave you is the best, trust me." Nancy said confidently and stood up.
Tyson opened his eyes and looked up at her, thinking that she's going to leave now. To his surprise, she strolled over to him and sat down near his head. He looked at her surprised, not knowing if it's a blush coming to his face, or it's just his fever.
Nancy smiled and placed her hands underneath Tyson's head, slowly, she lifted it up and placed it in her lap. This time, Tyson can definitely feel his face burning from his blush. Nancy ran her hand along Tyson's hair, soothing his hair out. "Let me tell you a story."
Tyson nodded and closed his eyes, enjoying the softness on his head.
"Once upon a time, there was a woman. She was known for her beauty and her grace, it was said that no man could resist her beauty. Thus, many men lusted after her because of her beauty, and she was careful to not fall in love with any man, until she knows his true intention. One day, there came another man, he came in and with his natural personality, he swept her off her feet. She loved him, and she believed that he loved her as well."
Nancy sighed and turned her head to look out the window, where a soft rain had picked up.
"Then they got married, and had a daughter, the woman was content, she was happy, but the man wasn't. As days grew, so did the woman, she no longer hold the beauty that she used to have, the man was disappointed. He rarely came home, he hitted her, he abused her, he lusted after other young women, and slept with them freely. The woman then knew, he's just another man that was attracted by her beauty. She regretted her decision, but she didn't have any way of supporting herself if they do get a divorce. In the end... she died in her room alone, sad and pale, no longer beautiful. Her daughter watched all of this happen in front of her eyes... at that time, she was only 7... she was alone....."
Nancy trailed off, her eyes glimmered with tears. Tyson slowly opened his eyes and looked up at her, she just looked outside the window at the falling rain. He blinked and focused on her, somehow, just a moment ago, he saw that woman in her... the woman that was cursed by her beauty... the woman whom died alone, sad and lonely...
Inside the room, Nancy just starred outside the window, Tyson looked at her, quietly.... no one disturbed the peace....
[Head Quarters]
"Where are you going?" Maria asked as Lisa picked up a green umbrella.
"Max." Lisa answered shortly, Maria looked up at the grey sky.
"Where can he be on a day like this? Check the gardens before you go into town." Maria suggested, and Lisa nodded, walking out of the door. Maria looked after her and sighed, she then turned her head upwards and saw a small figure sitting on the balcony of the third floor. Shaking her head, she walked up the stairs.
Kenny sure is quiet, she didn't even hear him leave the room early on.
[Garden]
"Oh man, why did I have to pick such a day to practice Draciel?" Max sighed as he tried to find a covering place in the garden.
Finally, he gave up and just stood there, looking up at the sky, watching the rain come down.
"You'll get a cold." A voice appeared, so did an umbrella, Max spun around and saw Lisa standing there, he smiled.
"Lisa! Thank you! You don't know how thankful I am!"
Lisa just nodded and handed the umbrella to Max, whom held it numbly. After a second, he raced fowards to catch up with Lisa, offering half of the umbrella. "Here, you'll get a cold without an umbrella."
Lisa looked at him, then quickened her pace, wanting to get ahead, but Max pulled her back. "Would you just listen to me for once?" Max said, somewhat annoyed, but kept his hold on her wrist. Lisa looked down at her wrist, but didn't say anything.
True, she's a player, she had slept with many guys before. However... they all know a dislike of hers, which is touching her without her telling them to, or allowing them to. And because of her dislike, many have been injuried.
Lisa frowned, why is she letting him hold her wrist when she didn't ask him to? Why didn't she brush him off? Why...
Lisa shook her head, too many questions, yet whom can answer her? Just like they walked back ot the Head Quarter's main building, they looked like a couple, taking a walk in the rain.
Just looks like...
[Balcony]
"You're really quiet." Maria commented and sat down besides Kenny, whom just glanced at her.
"You are really open with guys, huh?" Kenny asked quietly.
Maria turned and looked at him, she blinked and looked down. "Let me tell you something. There was a man, he had many girlfriends, even after he married. He had a daughter, but he still paid no attention to his daughter, he was out with his girlfriends all the time, in front of his daughter's eyes. The mother loved the man, but committed suicide when the girl was 6. The man then left with one of his girlfriends, not knowing what kind of impact he had on his daughter. She'a fraid to love, so she plays around, just like he did."
Kenny looked at her closely, she looks to be filled with hate. "Is that daughter you?"
Maria turned to look at him closely, she sighed. "A crush."
"What?"
"You can have a crush on me, but don't fall in love with me."
"Why?"
Maria looked at him, then turned her head away. "Because I will never love you back."
Kenny looked at her profile, the warning would be nicer if it came sooner.
[Outside]
"Looks like someone's waiting for you." Katherine commented as they got closer to the Head Quarter under pouring rain.
Chiriko looked ahead of them with a smile. "He's really cute."
Katherine smiled and turned to Kai, whom hasn't said anything. "So, Kai, is Ray a devoted boyfriend?"
Kai glanced at her, but said nothing, Katherine just shrugged and looked back at Chiriko, whom smiled and flipped her wet hair back. "No matter, I like to get to know him myself, you guys go in first."
With that, she flipped off of her panther and started walking towards Ray, whom walked towards her as well.
"You're all wet."
"Thank you Ray." Chiriko said sweetly and ducked under the umbrella.
"Why did you go out under such heavy rain?" Ray asked as they started walking inside.
"It's no problem, anything for my friends."
Katherine and Kai are already at the door, Katherine just gave Chiriko a look. "Thanks, blame it on us."
Chiriko just laughed and walked inside with Ray, Katherine then looked at Kai, he didn't say anything. She sighed and went in, Kai looked at her back view, the after shock of the kiss is still there....
