Okay, I'm no gonna talk that much today. I'll just have to tell you that
I'm gonna reveal a part of Kouji's surprise for Zoe. Anyway, please write a
review to me if you've read my story, 'cause my sister and I are having
this contest to see who gets more reviews. And just to tell you guys....this
chapter kinda sucks...well I'll improve it on the next chapter!
Zoe's P.O.V.
There're some bloodstains on the watch, gasped oh no! it must have been Kouichi's. Oh, what have I done! I injured him! I'm not gonna cry...I'm not gonna cry... I'm not gonna cry...I'm not gonna cry. I've made up my mind. When I'm with him, my mind won't stop playing tricks on me, confusing me. It's like I couldn't think straight. I'm not gonna betray both Kouji and Kouichi by having love affairs with both of them at the same time. I've got to make up my mind. And this time, I know that I'm going to make the right decision, because I've decided to choose Kouji.
Chris's P.O.V.
Poor Kouichi, he had suffered so much from this love he'd shared with my best friend Zoe. Looking at him here like this with his blood all over the floor really breaks my heart. I think the one that Zoe should be with is Kouichi. The reason why I supported their love is not because Kouichi is my cousin, it's because I can see that Zoe meant a lot to him. No matter who she decides to choose in the end, I'll always support her decision, like a good friend should.
Normal P.O.V
Zoe ran into the nearby washroom to catch her breath from running. By the time she went in there, the tears that were once in her eyes are all dried up.
"I have to focus on Kouji's little scavenger hunt right now." Zoe thought with a gloomy conviction. "I can't dwell on those silly feelings any more. I will always love Kouji, and only Kouji."
After encouraging herself, Zoe then opened up the watch. Came to her surprise, she found a tiny pink note. She opened it and began to read it.
"If you think this is your last clue, well think again! There's a little map on the back of this note. Use this map to find a shop named Dairy Queen. You have to find an old man there and he'll give an item that'll be useful for you to find your last clue. Good luck!"
"Aww..." Zoe groaned. "Another clue!"
Kouichi's P.O.V.
Oww! My arm! It's bleeding really badly! No wonder my face is so pale right now, I've lost too much blood! I really don't blame Zoe for this, I mean; the only one she loved was Kouji, not me. Beside, Kouji already made up his mind to choose Zoe instead of his childhood lover Cecilia. I mean, he loved her ever since he was four years old and he'd never loved any other girls. I wondered what made him change his mind.
Two months ago:
Kouji and Cecilia are in the cyber café, having some momentous conversation.
"So how's your modeling business lately?" He asked. "You've been away for months, and...and I really miss you."
Cecilia flashed her gorgeous smile. "Thanks Kouji. My business is fine."
"I'm glad!" He replied.
"Oh, and by the way..." Cecilia added, handing him a present. "This is your early birthday present."
"Gee, thanks." He answered, looking at the present happily. "Why don't you just give it to me on my birthday?"
Cecilia's grin suddenly flicked into a frown. "I'm afraid that I can't make it to your birthday party."
"Why not?" Kouji questioned with concerns. "Are you going to be away for another business trip?"
"No," She insisted sadly. "Of course not."
"The what's the problem?" He inquired eagerly.
Cecilia ran her tongue onto her lip, and then laced her fingers onto his. "Kouji, Takuya told me that you're in love with a girl right now isn't it?"
"Well, I..." Kouji stammered.
She smiled and decided to encourage him. "I think you've made a great choice, Takuya said that girl's really pretty isn't it?"
"But Cecilia," Kouji urged. "I still can't forget about you!"
"Kouji," Cecilia insisted. "I like you a lot, but it is not that kind of love. You get me?"
Kouji nodded. So she continued. "Kouji, I'm ten years older than you, and I've been friends with you, Kouichi, Takuya even though he's my half- brother, Michael, and Harlen ever since you guys were four years old. I've treated every single one of you like my little brothers. I guess what really bond us together was our parents' money."
"Yeah." He agreed.
"Anyways," She went on. "No matter what happen, I'll always be your friend and –"
"You should know that I loved you ever since the first time I met you right?" He interrupted.
"Yes, I know." She retorted nonchalantly. "Which is which I have to tell you this."
Kouji fixed his eyes on her extremely beautiful face. So then she started. "Kouji, I'm getting marry soon."
The news startled Kouji so bad that he almost choked.
"The reason why I won't make it to your birthday party tomorrow is because I have to take wedding pictures with my fiancé, Scott." She reasoned.
"I thought you loved me, didn't you." He asked.
"Kouji," She answered. "I only liked you as a good friend. Beside, the one you should be with is not me, it's that girl. I'm sure you loved her with all of your heart right?"
"Yes... I do." Kouji consented gloomily.
"To tell you the truth, "She said. "Out of all five of you, you're the smartest and kindest one. I still remember that you are so popular with the girls in the school that your locker is filled with love letters everyday!"
He said nothing but nodded.
"So promise me, "She smiled. "Promise me that you'll treat that girl like a treasure. I'm sure she's very lucky to be with you."
He beamed. "I will, I promise."
She smiled back. "That's the Kouji I know!"
At the Dairy Queen:
"Excuse me, sir." Zoe walked up to the old man.
"What do you want?" He asked rudely.
"Hi, my name's Zoe." She introduced herself.
"Zoe? What a weird name!" He criticized. "You're the girl that young master told me about right?"
Figuring that this old man must be one of Koujji's servant or something, she nodded.
"Well you're gonna need a key from me to get to the last clue." He said. "Unfortunately, I'm not gonna give you that key until you give my bird here something."
"What!" She exclaimed.
"Well, here's a little note that young master told me to give you." He handed her a blue note.
"Wow Zoe, you're getting closer and closer to the last clue. By the way, this is Takuya's butler. In order for him to give you the key, you have to bring him something for his bird. To find out what the bird needs, you have to gather up all of the clues (Mermaid, Orange juice, Ribbon, and Watch). Now, take all the letters that begins in each words. Then, you'll have M, O, R, and W. You have to unscramble the letters into a word and you'll find out what the bird needs."
"Hmm..M, O, R , and W..." Zoe thought. "romw, no, omwr, no, oh I got it! WORM...eww, where am I gonna get that...."
Zoe's P.O.V.
Thank God that there's a store nearby that sells fishing baits, so I just bought a worm there and gave it to that old man's bird. He was very pleased, so he gave me the key and told me to go to the beach to search for this tresure chest, which is where I am now. I wonder what will happen next, am I gonna find Kouji here?
Kouichi's P.O.V.
Okay, I know that it's very wrong of me to spy on her like this, but I just want to make sure that she's all right. I mean, it's dark outside, and she's going to these strange places all by herself. I'm just worried about her, that's all. I don't want her to get kidnapped or killed by some maniacs on the street. I wonder what she's doing with Takuya's butler back in the Dairy Queen. Moreover, why is she in the beach right now?
Normal P.O.V.
Zoe knelt in front of the little treasure chest that she just found on the little boat. She looked at the key that Takuya's butler gave her, and decided to slot it into the treasure chest.When Zoe opened the treasure chest, she found a whistle and some kind of a remote control inside it. "Huh? What are these things for, and...ahhh!" Everything within her sight suddenly went pitch black, she knew that someone must have covered her eyes with a blindfold or something.
"Help!" She screamed from the top of her lung. "Help!"
Kouichi's P.O.V.
Oh no! Zoe's in trouble, I have to go and save her! Wait a second, isn't that Kouji?
Normal P.O.V.
"It's okay Zoe," Kouji reassured her by embracing his arms around her. "It's me, Kouji!"
"Kouji?" She murmured quietly.
"Yeah." He said. "Come on, take my hand, and follow me."
Zoe blushed, for this is the first time Kouji hold her hand. She suddenly had a premonition that this night will be one of the most memorable nights of her life.
"I'm taking you to my own personal private beach right now." He declared haughtily. "I'm sure you'll love it, it's really beautiful."
Zoe blushed and nodded.
Kouji then took her into his silver Porsche, and drove off. Kouichi then went into his brand new black mustang and secretly followed Kouji's car.
Well, on the next chapter, I'll reveal Kouji's surprise for Zoe. In addition, it seems like Kouji's surprise won't be the only thing that will shock her. Kouichi will do something that will change Zoe's life forever...if you are very eager to find out, well then, tune in next time! I promise you that the next chapter will be better, unlike this one. Anyways, it'll be REALLY long, just to tell you. Well, see you later and please continue to read my story and review it!
