CHAPTER 5: NOW I KNOW

"I'm freezing in the sun

I'm burning in the rain

The silence, I'm screaming

Calling out your name."

Tokiya's POV

"Mi-chan?" she said.

I stood up from the windowsill and dragged her gently to a seat next to the dinner table.

She looked at me as I sat opposite her. "Why did you ask me to come here?" she asked.

I lit a match and gently placed them to each of the cake-candles. "It's my birthday today," I replied simply, busying myself with the candles.

"So?" she said, raising an eyebrow.

"So I want to celebrate it with you." I was smiling at her but I don't know if she could see what I feel inside; despair, loneliness, and misery.

She glared at me, her infuriated face became soft. She glared at me silently and finally said, "So you have to take me here just to celebrate your birthday? What a crap thing, Mi-chan."

I smiled at her interestingly. "Remember, I'm still your boss. You have to follow my orders."

"But…" she started.

"Can't you just give me time to celebrate my birthday?" I asked pityingly.

She stopped, sympathizing my situation. Surely, it will be okay with her.

She smiled with ease. "Okay. What are you waiting for, Christmas? Blow your candles!" she ordered the "usual" way.


Fuuko's POV

He is so weird. Imagine a man crying in a middle of a celebration? In his case, I think it's normal. He is all alone in life, right? Is it his first time to celebrate his birthday or he's just overreacting?

"Did I say anything wrong?" I asked. You know why I hate people crying on front of me? It makes me feel twitchy, as though I was the reason of their tears. I started to edge near him to pat his shoulder for comfort. Then he started to caress my face.

"Mi-chan," I told him gently. Oh my! Don't tell me he's gonna kiss me!

My mind was absolutely blank. Will I allow him to do it? What is happening to me? why do I have to choose about this simple thing? Supposed to be I should have cast him away but there is something inside me that agrees with his actions.

"No," I whispered to him. I turned my head to the side and closed my eyes, pulling back my tears.


Tokiya's POV

is this what my heart has been waiting for?am I really in love? With Fuuko?

In a minute, I was happy. But what is happening to me?

"What do you want me to do with you?" I asked her, shaking her violently that she fell to the floor. I noticed that she wasn't looking at me. it made me feel that everything was wrong.

"Ihave to go," she said, as though she was hiding her etars.

She left me alone. However, she left me the answer to the question that has been burning inside of me.

Now I know…
