Chapter 7: The Agreement

"What?!"

Both Shinta and his brother looked up at Yuki in surprise.

"I need to go! I still have to cook my dinner!!!" Yuki exclaimed as she ran off before either one can say another word.

"Yuki..." Shinta mumbled as he turned to his brother, "Hey wasn't that the janitor girl you were telling me about?"

"Huh?! What?! Oh yeah..." Takeshi mumbled as if he just woke up from a dream.

"Are you okay?" Shinta said, looking bewildered.

"Yeah, I'm fine... don't worry about me..." he replied, ruffling his brother's dark brown hair.

"Hey! Quit that!!!"


As the two brothers walked down the street a blue mustang just drove on a big puddle, splashing water on both of them.

"Hey you big jerk!!!" Shinta exclaimed, waving his fist in the air, "Why'd you splash water on us!"

"Shh!" Takeshi hissed, covering his brother's mouth and dragging him over to the nearest alley, "I know that guy- he's from my school-"

A sandy-blonde haired guy stepped out from the blue mustang. He looked around as he closed his cellphone.

"Damn- Yuki isn't home yet... where can she be..." he mumbled to himself as he saw a young woman with short blonde hair passing by the nearest alley.

She stopped in surprise as the sandy-blonde haired guy walked towards her.

"Hey Isumi!" he greeted her.

"Hey Shinji... what are you doing here?" Isumi said, looking around, "I thought you asked Yuki to go out with you tonight?"

"I tried to ask her during lunch time, but she said she was too busy..." Shinji replied, shrugging, "Anyway, I tried waiting for her a while ago after her detention time, but she didn't seem to show up, so I thought she went home early... But I tried calling her twice, but no one answered- well, except her answering machine..."

"Hmm... that doesn't sound like Yuki... her brothers' curfew for her is a quarter before seven..." Isumi said, crossing her arms.

"A quarter before seven? But then how'd you get to go to the Buzz before?" Shinji asked in confusion.

"Oh... I asked her brother for permission..." Isumi replied, looking at her watch.

"Oh... maybe I should ask her brother for permission first before I ask her out tomorrow..." Shinji mumbled as Isumi replied, "Not tonight though..."

"Why not?"

"Cause I just saw him with a girl a while ago walking right out of the movie house across the street..." Isumi replied shaking his head slowly, "... So, I'm guessing he's coming home late tonight... that guy's a chick magnet... Not to mention a play boy..."

"Damn it... Well... you... will still help me with her... right?" Shinji asked her with pleading eyes.

"Yeah- whatever- I just told you days ago that I'd just help her notice you- right?" Isumi said, crossing her arms, "If I helped you any further- She'd notice it- and she's gonna get so mad at me 'She hates it when I pair her up with someone...'"

Shinji beamed at her.

"Great! That's great enough for me! But tell me- what does she like better? Chocolates- flowers or Jewelry?"

"I told you I'd only help her notice you!" Isumi snapped as Shinji gave her his best version of the puppy dog pout, "Ah jeeze! Don't give me that look!"

"Pwease?????"

"Agh! Okay- fine! Whatever!" Isumi said in annoyance, "She likes chocolates with almonds- her favorite flower are roses- and jewelry- I don't know about that 'Because I never really saw her wearing jewelry before...'"

"Well- never mind the jewelry then- I'll just give her those chocolate almonds and a bunch of roses when I ask her out to dinner," Shinji said to her while looking around the area, "So... will that be okay for her?"

"Yeah- sure- whatever... She's not the picky type anyway... 'Except she hates anything with raisins in them'" Isumi sighed, checking her watch again, "Um- listen- I have to go... I still have to buy some groceries for my mom..."

"Uh! Sure! Take care Isumi! And thanks a bunch!" Shinji said, giving her a big hug.

"Ack! Lemme go! Do that to Yuki!" Isumi snapped blushing madly as Shinji set her back down on her feet.

"Gomen- I'm just- you know..." Shinji said in embarrassment as Isumi sighed in annoyance, "Gomen about that..."

"It's okay- just never do that again next time 'Cause only my beloved Takeshi can do that to me'" Isumi said as they both waved good bye to each other, "See you in school..."

Shinji sighed as he looked around his surroundings one more time.

"Hmm... Why do I have this strange feeling that I'm being watched?" he mumbled to himself as he got back in his car and drove away.


Shinta looked at his brother. HE was leaning against a wall, clenching his fists and was deep in thought.

'Hmm? What's up with him?' Shinta thought, waving his hands in Takeshi's face as he said out loud, "Hey?! Yo?! Are you okay?! Is anyone there?! Did someone take your brain or something?!"

"Huh?! Wha- Is there a fire?! Where's the fire?!" Takeshi cried in surprise as if he just snapped out of a trance, "Where's the fire?! Where's the fire?!"

"Hey! 'You're embarrassing me!' Snapped out of it will you?!" Shinta snapped in annoyance, "You're talking too much..."

"Huh? Wha- oh... sorry..." Takeshi apologized, looking very embarrassed, "I... I was just... thinking about something..."

"What were you thinking about?" Shinta asked, raising a brow at his brother.

"Uh..." Takeshi mumbled, blushing madly, "uh... um... it's nothing... Let's just go..."

He then reached for his brother's hand and pulled him down the street.


Meanwhile...

"Damn Makoto!" Yuki grumbled, looking at a delicious looking choco-caramel cake as she washed the dishes, "The time I feel like making something special for him- he's out again... maybe flirting with one of his many girlfriends..."

Yuki sighed in irritation as she dried up all the dishes. She then went over to their living room and lied down on their couch. She sighed as she stared up the ceiling.

'I can't believe... he talked to me...' she thought, picturing Takeshi in her mind.

She blushed madly at the thought and shook her head furiously.

'Damn! Stop thinking about him! There's nothing special about him! He's just a mean-rude-snobbish guy!!! Nothing more, nothing less!' she scolded herself, 'don't tell me I'm liking the guy?!'

She looked up at their phone which was hanging on the wall.

'Hmm... better check if there's a message...'

She stood up from the couch and headed for the phone. She clicked on a button and a voice came, saying, "You have one message. Message one: "Hey Yuki! This is Shinji! DO you think I can talk to you tomorrow during recess? You don't have to call back; just try to come if you're not too busy, okay? Well... I guess I'll be seeing you tomorrow... Bye!" " BEEP! BEEP!

Yuki looked at the phone in confusion.

'Why'd he want to talk to me?'

Suddenly she remembered something she said before 'We'll see... We'll see...'

She walked back over to the couch and sat on it looking very dumbfounded.

'Was that why he wanted to talk to me?' she thought as Shinji's smiling face appeared in her head.

'He is cute... and kind... and a great cook...' she thought as she blushed red, 'wait! What the heck am I thinking?! I almost sound like Isumi now?!'

Suddenly, her memories of meeting at the park with Takeshi flashed in her head.

She turned redder as she remembered his words, "Do you even care if I go?"

"Damn it?! Why is this all happening to me?!"
