CHAPTER TWOMEET LIN, THE GIRL NEXT DOOR
Takuya knocked again
"hey, aren't you going to open the door?" Kouji asked making Izumi more nervous.
/ "Ok"/ "is that you Takuya?" she opened the door and was shocked to see him with a girl. / "who the heck is she?"/
"Oh, Izumi, how ya doing?" he smiled and saw Kouji and the others, "Hi guys and... Kouji? Why are you here?" he suddenly asked for he had known that he was in abroad.
"Long story..." he smiled back at Takuya and tapped him in his shoulder.
Takuya saw Kouji looking at his friend, "Mind if I brought a chaperon?"
"not at all, come in Takuya and ...can I ask your name?" Kouji possed for a while waiting for her answer.
"uhh, I... I'm Amaeri Lin, nice meeting you", she introduced her self and bowed.
After the conversation they went inside to join the others. Izumi was left behind to close the door. After Izumi closed the door Kouji felt hot, then he looked at his back and saw Izumi with a red aura circulating in her body.
"oh...oo...Hey Izumi calm down a bit will yah! I thought you said that you don' like...him? Izumi held Kouji's mouth.
"will you keep it down... somebody might here you!" she said almost like a whisper.
"so I'm right about you having crush on..." Izumi covered Kouji's big mouth again.
"shhhhhhhhh......" she whispered on Kouji's ear.
"So it is true!" Kouichi suddenly appeared on their back making them so shock and at the same time they were so nervous.
"KO...ko...Kouichi when did you get in there?" they both said in chorus...
Kouichi grinned to them before he answered, "umh... a while ago, when Takuya arrived... I think..." he grinned again.
"what do you mean by 'it is true'?" Izumi asked...
He grinned and narrowed his eyes at her, "that you like TA-KU-YA!"
"what the hell are you talking about! He...he-he!" she looked at the ceiling and a sweat drop rolling to her head.
"don't lie to me I heard almost all of your conversation with Kouji!" he smiled as a sign of his wise ness.
"ok. You got me but..." she hanged her arms at Kouji and Kouichi's neck and almost choked the two, "don't you ever and ever tell it to him! Alright!"
Takuya went back to the living room to call them, "hey, guys what are you still doing in there? Aren't you going in here?"
"we...we're doing...uhh...umh, nothing, just fooling around" Izumi made an excuse.
"umh...anyway let's go inside." He invited.
"we are going after you..." she unhooked her arm in to their neck and glared as if she was telling them not to tell it to anyone.
dinning room
"Takuya, who's the new girl? Tomoki demand.
"Oh, her? She's my classmate and neighbor; also her name is Lin Amaeri" he explained.
"so why is she with you today?" Junpei asked coming out of the kitchen.
"well she came from Hokkaido and so she's new here. Her aunt asked me if I can go home with her, so I said to them yes. And that's why she's with me." He answered.
They saw the twins where laughing but not too loud and they wandered so they asked.
"hey, what's wrong with you two?"
"nothing especially. We just happened to know someone who is like you...oooouuchhhhhhh", Izumi suddenly stepped on Kouji's foot under the table.
"hey, Kouji what's wrong with you?" Junpei asked full of curiosity.
"i...I-ie, it's nothing" he rubbed his feet.
"kids the food is ready...oh Takuya, you're here" she put the bowl full of soup on the table.
"good evening Mrs. Himi" he bowed.
"hmm...who's the girl behind you?" she interrogate while gazing at her.
"good evening, my name is Amaeri Lin, nice to meet you Mrs. Himi." She bowed shyly.
"ok. The food is served." She left them in the dinning room.
"bon appetite" everyone said in chorus except for Lin.
After a while Junpei offered a toast, "hey shouldn't we have a toast for the two of them...lets cheers..."
"CHEERS!" every one toasted on the air.
Hours later, Takuya, Lin, Kouji and Kouichi went home coz it's past eight. Everyone bid a good bye to each other.
The next day was kinda interesting for Izumi....
