Chap 4. Looking for a guy
Quote: I will be giving an insight on Nhadalah in this chapter
Nhadalah ran as far away as she could. Nhadalah could hear Gippal's footsteps a few meters behind her, once she got out of the temple she bolted to the Moonflow. She heard Gippal begging her to stop but she just ignored him. Her running had faltered into a slight jog as she arrived at Moonflow. She reached the edge of the river and let all her tears out. A hypello had asked why she was crying but she had the hiccups so she didn't answer and the hypello left.
Why did I even bother going out with him. I knew deep in my heart he never really liked me.
She sat there in silence thinking about how Gippal had hurt her
It had all started when Nhadalah walked into Gippal's office. She had entered his office to tell him something about Bikanel Desert. Nhadalah had always had a crush on him but never had she revealed her true feelings for him until that day.
While they were talking something had possessed her to go up to him and kiss him. He didn't kiss her back but she thought he was just silent due to the shock. She left the office without saying a word to him.
She later found out that Gippal was actually going out with Rikku, the Al Bhed princess. Nhadalah knew she had nope hope against the very gorgeous princess.
So during the party Nhadalah asked Gippal to see if she could talk to him about what had happened. She had apologised for her behaviour and that there were no hard feelings. When she was about to hug him and leave she saw Rikku standing in the hallway. A little devil whispered in her ear and Nhadalah fell into sin. She couldn't leave without hurting Gippal someway so she kissed him.
All of a sudden Rikku was yelling at the both of them and insulting them as well. She left crying and Nhadalah couldn't help but smirk about the situation. During all the yelling she heard Gippal say he liked her. Her heart had skipped a beat when he had revealed this.
When Rikku had left Gippal explained to her that he was going to break up with Rikku anyway then he asked Nhadalah out. Nhdalahs hope was shattered into billions of pieces. She actually thought Gippal liked her but she was only a rebound to him. She thought hard about it (if you call 2 seconds hard) and said yes because this was probably going to be the only time her sweet dreams would come through.
Little did she know Gippal wasn't the God she had thought he was. He was nice and compassionate though so that was why she had stayed with him. Two days later when Nhadalah was working in Djose Temple (she had started to come by the temple more often) an airship arrive and none other than the Rikku herself was on there. She saw the hurt in her eyes and couldn't help but feel guilty of what happened.
Then today she came looking a million times more glamorous and flirting with every guy she saw. Then not very surprising she had caught them kissing. If it wasn't for Paine and Yuna she would have never known it happened. They had told her that she needed to see something in Gippal's office.
Now what am I going to do. I have no boyfriend; I better just go back to Bikanel Desert.
Nhadalah heard footsteps, she knew 100 who it was.
"Nhadalah I'm s-sorry, nothing r-really happened back t-th-there" Gippal told her panting and out of breath
"Guess you have a lot of girl problems, but save the speech to some one who cares, I am going back to Bikanel and I never want to see you again." (well maybe after I'm over you but you don't need to know that) Nhadalah rose and walked away with her pride intact. Gippal was just left to himself.
I always make a wrong move when I'm around with girls, I didn't really want to end it with Nhadalah like that. I guess this was what Rikku had planned.
Rikku was left alone in Gippal's office with a huge grin on her face. She couldn't believe that everything was going according to plan. Yuna and Paine were right, a girl could make a guy do anything for her if they used the right moves.
She left Gippal's office and walked to the foyer where Yuna and Paine were. They were still fixing the machine as Rikku announced
" step 2. Complete" she said this with an exciting tone
"So Rikku step 3 is to get a guy to make Gippal jealous, how you going to do that. I mean you need to get a guy which will be easy for you but if they don't know your plan your going to hurt them you know" Rikku faltered to the revelation of her plan. That was going to be a tough step.
Hhmmm, where am I going to get a guy that will do this for me. I need someone who really isn't interested in me, who just wants to be friends.
"Hey Doctor P. got any ideas I'm stumped" Rikku asked Paine
"Well, you do need to get a guy who is as good looking as Gippal, if not more. You also need him not to like you but he will do this thing for you." Paine pondered a bit "I've got it! Let's look around for a guy in this temple. I mean if you get a guy who lives all the way in Bevelle, it's going to be pointless because he won't be able to come here everyday. There's got to be some guy who just wants to be friends with you"
"I guess you better start socialising now" Yuna told her cousin
"Aren't you guys gonna help, I mean this is going to be hard you know"
"Well, if we go around helping you then we won't get anything done will we" Paine explained to Rikku as if she were a child
"Yeah that's right, could you guys please cover for me?" Rikku asked pleading to Paine and Yuna
"That's already under control" Yuna exclaimed. Rikku gave each one of them a hug and went off socialising in the temple.
Rikku found that it was a lot harder than she realised. She went into the chamber of the fayth where some Al Bhed guys were. They were very interested in her but they were too interested at looking at her chest than actually talking to her. Every time she would ask a question their answers would be: really, uh huh, wow, fascinating, great, yes um what you say I didn't catch that. Rikku was really sick of it; none of these guys had decent looks. She knew Gippal would never get jealous if she went out with these guys. Rikku went to the front of the temple where some people were queuing up to be able to dig at Bikanel. It was the same here too, most of the guys looked okay but they didn't seem to want to be just friends. Her plan was failing on her.
Everything was just going perfectly and this had to happen. Why don't I just skip step 3. Wait I can't if I don't step 4 will be a disaster.
She went back in to tell Yuna and Paine the bad news.
"Looks like every guy around here wants to be more than friends with me. This is hopeless, I can't do this."
"Hold it right there, Rikku you help me defeat Sin and Vegnagun and we both thought that we were doomed then, why are you giving up?" Yuna grabbed hold of Rikku's shoulders looking at her in the eyes "Do you want revenge or not?"
"I do" Rikku said confidently "I am going to do whatever I can" They both smiled and gave each other a high five. Paine just stood there looking at them with Oh-boy-something-wrong-is-going-to-happen look.
And it did. It had been a week and still there was no guy who met the criteria. Even Yuna was feeling that the plan was going to fail. Fixing another machine in the foyer the girls chatted
"There are no guys; I swear none of them are as half decent. They are all up themselves. Talk about being humble, one guy asked me if he had strong biceps." Rikku started the conversation
"I know they are all snobs" Yuna joined in
"Maybe we're going about this the wrong way"
"How can you go the wrong way with trying to make friends with a guy?" Rikku felt agitated, she still hadn't found a guy. In the past week she had been avoiding Gippal to the ends of Spira. They seemed to have a deal with each other not to talk.
"I mean I could make friends with a guy in Zanarkand better than here" Rikku complained. They all nodded their heads feeling that all hope was lost.
They heard the doors to the temple open. All three girls eye lit up, a very handsome guy came in, he had dark brown hair which was spiked up at the front but not the way Gippal did his hair, he had metallic blue eyes which caught the girl looking at him. He was a very fit guy, he was wearing cargo pants and a blue vest, so everyone could see he had a six pack and strong arms, wide shoulders, everything a girl would want in a guy. He waved a hand and walked towards them.
Quote: I know this chapter might be boring; it was a sort of fill in chapter. I am also sorry I left you with a cliff-hanger. I already have the next chapter ready but this is where I black mail you all, the more reviews I get the better chance of me loading the chapter on tomorrow, if I don't get a lot of reviews I'll just load it up in two days time.
