Chapter 16. Apologizing to Ryou, Promising to Retasu.
Retasu lay on the bed, crying.
She couldn't do anything, when she heard footsteps, coming closer and closer from outside. The person was whistling and it seemed to be a girl .
Retasu recognized her voice as she stood up and squinted her way to the door, as fast as she could .
"Minto! Minto! Get me OUT! PLEASE!" Retasu banged on the door.
Minto who was just walking past the room heard, her Princess.
"Princess?"
"Minto."
"Is it you?"
"Minto, please get me out. " Retasu cried.
"Okay you wait okay" Minto said feeling worried.
She unlocked the door and saw the room where Retasu was.
Retasu hugged her.
"Minto" Retasu cried on her friends arms.
Minto tapped her shoulders
"What happened here?"
"I-I can't t-tell you. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I promise I'll tell you someday. Please forgive me."
Retasu continued to cry
Minto lead Retasu to back to her room and gave her a new pair of glasses.
Minto let Retasu cry on her bed.
Retasu thought about Ryou. What if he knew. Would it be over with them. Will he leave her.
She didn't know.
It was 12 o'clock when she heard a knock on the balcony door.
"Ryou is here."
She opened the door.
She saw Ryou, suprised.
She hugged him and cried.
Retasu said "Ryou.. I'm sorry... I'm looking at you with an ugly face."
Ryou asked back "What's wrong?"
"It's Masaya. I need to tell you something"
Ryou brought her to sit on her bed. He looked at her and gave a sweet kiss on the cheek.
"I came here only to see you happy, Retasu..."
Retasu hugged Ryou and smiled.
"I'm sorry"
She looked at his sweet, kind face. He looked back at her, and putting a sweet smile on her face.
He leaned down and kissed her on the head. Retasu wanted to kiss Ryou. She leaned up and kissed him.
But as they were kissing, Ryou felt the wound on her lips. He broke the kiss and asked
"What happened?"
"M-Masaya"
"What? Masaya what?"
"He kissed me and tore the skin of my lips"
Ryou was so suprised.
Retasu thought he was mad.
"Ryou? I'm sorry. I'm really sorry. Please don't be mad at m-"
Ryou broke her words with a kiss. It was kind of rough. But he kissed her compassionately, after their lips touched for a few seconds.
He broke the kiss and hugged Retasu saying "Retasu...I promise I'll get us out of this miserable life. Just wait. "
As Retasu heard this as her cheeks turned hotter.
"I promise"
"Ryou"
"You wanna know something ?"
"Yeah."
"I want something, something from you Retasu"
"What is it?"
"I want to taste your sweet lips again. Would you grant my wish?"
"It will be my pleasure" Retasu said as they closed their eyes and shared a kiss.
