Enishi kicked a stone on his way to his home. He kept thinking about Kaoru's smile and her actions when around Soujirou.
Flashback...
"Still!!" Kaoru exclaimed and hugged Soujirou again. Her smile was seen.
End of flashback...
"Dang it." He murmured as he kicked the stone towards the street.
------
"Do you have a problem, Enishi?" Tomoe asked as she watched Enishi staring at his untouched food on his plate.
Enishi's eyes widened and got out of his thoughts. "N-Nothing." He murmured and lifted the fork to prick the meat.
Tomoe blinked. She hasn't seen her younger brother like this. He was 'airy' and a proud person. She stood up from her seat and kneeled in front of the fireplace. "Enishi," she called out.
"Hai, 'neesan?" Enishi asked absent-mindedly.
Tomoe patted the space next to her, signaling Enishi to sit beside her.
Enishi understood and sat beside his sister. "What is it?" Enishi asked, looking at the logs burning.
Tomoe smiled. "I'm your sister, Enishi. Tell me your problem, for I also am telling you my own problems...like the one with Kenshin." Tomoe whispered and lifted her knees to her chest.
"Kenshin? You call that bastard his first name?" Enishi exclaimed.
"Enishi! He's not a bastard! I like him! But the problem is...he won't give up on 'her'." Tomoe whispered.
Enishi stared at his sister. "Who's 'her'?" Enishi asked.
"Kamiya-san..." Tomoe whispered.
Enishi's eyes widened. "You mean...Himura likes Kamiya too?!" Enishi exclaimed, standing up suddenly.
Tomoe blinked in confusion. "Ah...yes. I'm forcing Makimachi-san to be the bridge for Kamiya-san and Seta-kun so that Kenshin would be-" Tomoe said incompletely. She laughed softly. "You must think I'm evil..."
"No, not at all."
"It seems that Kamiya is so important to Kenshin... I don't know how to replace her." Tomoe whispered, squeezing her clothes.
"I know how you feel, 'neesan. I have a confession to make... I like Kamiya too." Enishi said while looking at the ground.
"You do?" Tomoe asked.
Enishi nodded. "So please...don't make Makimachi a bridge for the two of them. Seeing Kamiya hug Seta is painful enough for me. What if I see them kissing, holding hands, or something? I would've died in grief." Enishi said seriously.
Tomoe couldn't believe it. It seems that it was not the usual Enishi that was in front of her now. Enishi was really deeply, crazy in love with Kaoru that his attitude changed! "Sou ka...?" she whispered.
"Sou desu." Enishi said and sat on the floor again.
"Um, Enishi... Why did you call Kenshin 'bastard'?" Tomoe asked with hurt in her eyes.
Enishi frowned more. "It's because I'm jealous of him too! If you have seen Kamiya talking to Himura face to face, she acts normal. But when he's already gone, she'll turn red and looks like she might melt." Enishi said.
"So you had been observing her..." Tomoe said.
"Yes... But it's strange. How come Seta's the one Kamiya hugs and always talks with? GAH! I hate myself. I'm starting to get jealous on Seta and Himura and I'm really in love over a tanuki girl." Enishi exclaimed and sighed.
Tomoe nodded. "I heard that you played badminton with her last month..."
Enishi nodded slowly. "Yup. Before that, I was really observing her and watching her wherever she goes. I know I'm almost like a stalker, but I can't help it. She's a boy magnet, you know. When I saw Kamiya for the first time practicing badminton, I practiced the game too an indulged in sports." Enishi said.
"And it was just coincidence that I got my courage to confront Kamiya." Enishi whispered.
Tomoe's eyes widened, and then narrowed. "I won't bother you anymore, Enishi."
Enishi sighed. He went over to the front door and opened it. "Time's up, Sanosuke." He said with a tone of annoyance and opened the door.
Sanosuke almost tripped. He stood awkwardly and scratched his head. "So you knew I was listening." He said and laughed nervously.
"It was obvious. I saw your rooster hair by the window." Enishi said and glanced back to Tomoe.
Tomoe just blinked in confusion, but smiled. She walked slowly towards Sanosuke. "Konbanwa, a-no..."
"Sanosuke. Sagara Sanosuke desu!" Sanosuke introduced.
"Ah! Sagara-san, konbanwa. Wouldn't you mind if I invite you over dinner?" Tomoe said as she presented the table with plates of food.
Sanosuke smiled. "No thanks, Tomoe-san. Arigatoo for inviting me." Sanosuke said and politely bowed.
Tomoe smiled a little. "Well, I'll leave the two of you. I'll wash the dishes in the sink. See you tomorrow at school, Sagara-san." Tomoe whispered and went to the kitchen.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
"You heard everything?" Enishi asked as they sat comfortably on the red sofa in the living room.
Sanosuke nodded and smiled. "And it was coincidence. You were talking about Kamiya and-"
"And?" Enishi asked eagerly.
"I brought her to you." Sanosuke said with a rather 'evil' grin.
"NANI?!" Enishi exclaimed, hitting the coffee table with his hands loudly.
"Well, it seems that you had a problem with Kamiya a while ago so I brought her with me to see you." Sanosuke said.
"Is this a joke, Sanosuke? Kamiya would be so stubborn and would resist you." Enishi said, sitting on the sofa slowly.
Sanosuke ran his right hand through his brown locks of hair. "If you don't believe me then don't." Sanosuke said plainly.
"Ok, I believe you. But what did you say to her?" Enishi asked, his heart throbbing fast.
"Good thing you asked! As you just said, she resisted me but I was as stubborn as she is." Sanosuke said and began smiling.
Flashback...
Kaoru was fixing her bag to go home after the baseball match. Suddenly, she noticed something on her wrist. She looked at her left wrist with the bracelet that was given by Sanosuke. "Sempai..." she whispered.
"Hey Kamiya, can I have a minute with you?" Sanosuke asked suddenly.
Kamiya blinked. "Whoa!" she exclaimed to herself. "O-Okay." She whispered.
----
"What is it, Sagara-sempai?" Kaoru asked as they sat on the audience seat around the open stadium.
"You can just call me Sanosuke."
"Sanosuke."
"That's right. Can you come with me, Kamiya?" Sanosuke asked.
Kaoru blinked again. It was obvious she was lost in confusion. "Uh... What do you mean?" she asked.
"I want you to come with to speak with Enishi." Sanosuke explained.
Kaoru stared at Sanosuke for a long time then stood up suddenly. "WHAAAATTTT??!!! That darn Yukishiro Enishi-mister-merciless-playboy-guy?! No way!" Kaoru exclaimed, bursting in anger.
"Calm down, Kamiya. I want you to talk with him. Enishi seems to have a problem with you." Sanosuke said.
"With me?" Kaoru asked.
Sanosuke nodded. "Come on. It won't hurt."
Kaoru pouted and crossed her arms over her chest. "No way!" she repeated.
"You want to do this the hard way, don't you?" Sanosuke asked.
Kaoru still pouted.
----
"Let me go!!! Hey! Let me go!!!!" Kaoru exclaimed as she hit her fist to Sanosuke's back.
Sanosuke was carrying her over his shoulder. He bent over and grabbed the bag of Kaoru. "Where are Makimachi and the others?" Sanosuke asked.
"I let them go early!!! Put me down, NOW!" Kaoru demanded.
"I'll put you down if only you promise me that you will talk with Enishi." Sanosuke said.
"No!" Kaoru exclaimed.
Sanosuke shrugged. "If you say so." Sanosuke said and started walking.
Kaoru felt defeated. "I have no choice but to go with him..." she murmured.
End of flashback...
Enishi's dark glasses almost broke because he instantly fell off the sofa after hearing Sanosuke's story.
"I'll call her. Wait here." Sanosuke said and ran towards the front door.
Enishi waited. He felt his heart throbbing fast. "I must casual in front of Kamiya, or else she'll notice." Enishi thought.
Light footsteps were heard.
Enishi turned around and saw Kamiya in her usual clothes, not anymore in the cheering outfit. He stood up and grinned. "If it isn't Kamiya!" he said innocently, but his heart was leaping.
Kaoru sighed. "What do you want from me, Yukishiro?" Kaoru asked.
"Please, sit down first." Enishi said, offering a vacant seat.
Kaoru stared at Enishi and sat on the seat.
"Well, I'll leave the two of you. Take care of yourself, Kamiya. Ja na!!" Sanosuke exclaimed and went out of the house.
"Sanosuke! Matte~" Kaoru exclaimed but Sanosuke already closed the door.
"Neesan! Please make some tea for our guest!" Enishi exclaimed.
"Who is our guest?" the soft voice asked.
"Find out." Enishi and smiled at Kaoru again.
Kaoru's eyes widened and gulped. "What's with that smile?!" Kaoru thought.
Tomoe wiped her hands with the towel and was surprised to see Kaoru. "Oh, it's you, Kamiya-san. Konbanwa..." Tomoe whispered, but with sadness.
Kaoru stood up slowly, noticing the sadness in Tomoe's voice. "What's wrong with her...?" she thought. She looked at Enishi and saw that he was pretty serious because he was just staring at the edge of the coffee table. "They are all strange... They are not like this when we're in school... But..."
I can feel some aura of...sadness...
De-mo nande...?
