Chapter 7

Kuki came in the room and was Wally lying in her bed staring up at her ceiling. He got up and looked at her. Kuki could tell there was something wrong.

"Wally? Are you okay?" Wally suddenly clenched his fists and started screaming.

"OKAY?! OKAY?! KUKI, I CANT BELIEVE THAT THERE PUTTING YOU THROUGH ALL THIS! I READ YOUR LAST DIARY! I READ YOUR PAIN! AND YOU'RE JUST ACCEPTING IT? You deserve so much better Kuki! 'I wish I would die. I hate having to marry this bastard!' I READ THAT IN YOUR BOOK! I also read about how you feel about me! Kuki, you need to follow your heart. You can't marry this guy. You'll never be happy! Kuki, forgive me for saying this, but I LOVE YOU! And there is nothing to make me stop loving you! I know you want to marry me. I read your dreams. You want to have 3 children and see the cherry blossoms each year with me. I don't know what a cherry blossom is, but it sounds fun! You said that you wanted to marry me and live happily. You said that you needed a good father and you knew that this Hideki guy isn't the right guy for you! I know for a fact you want to marry me... and want to marry you. I know we're only sixteen, but we can get married later. Please, keep your vows until the time is right." A tear was streaming down his face as he finished. Kuki just looked at him and said. "Wally... I know what you said is right. But I don't have a cho-"

"YOU ALWAYS HAVE A CHOICE! Please just make the right one." And with that, he kissed her passionately on the lips. She kissed him back and said, "Wally..." He smiled.

"Kuki, I don't want to force you to marry me. But I want you to do what's right. We both know what it is." She looked at him after he said this.

"Wally? I need some time...to myself to think this out. I know I can't change what I'm destined for though... please. Let me just think."

Wally understood and walked out. He walked around the area a few times until it was dinner time. He ate in silence (He was an expert at the chopsticks now!). He started to walk upstairs when he heard a voice scream, "WALLY?" He turned around to see Mushi. She looked at him. "Hey WALLY? Do you have a thing for my sister or something?"

"WHAT? Well, I, uh, It's just that-"he said. His face burned up again. He felt like he could cook an egg on it, it was so hot.

"OHHH! YOU LIKE HER!!!"

"Ah! Shut up! Okay?" Mushi smiled. "OKAY!" she said, "Besides, she's getting married to this DREAMY guy anyway!" Wally just shook his head and walked into Kuki's room. He saw Kuki sitting there with her head between her legs. Wow, she's flexible he thought.

"Kuki? Are you okay?" Surprisingly, she smiled and laughed.

"Wally, I'm okay. I have this feeling that it's going to work out. I know that somehow, I'll marry you instead. Love cannot be broken." She smiled at him and he forced a smile back.

How could she think of such a thing? There isn't any way! She's just going to get her hopes up and fall even harder when she finds out she's going to get married to the jerk. She can't stop it. But why does she have so much faith? Does she know something I don't? I don't understand...

"Wally? Will you sleep with me again? I need someone to hug tonight... especially tonight." She smiled and he got back in bed with her after stripping down to his boxers. He was embarrassed, but he did it for her. Because he would give anything for her. He was in genuine love.
