Chapter 03: Koibito
After Yamato's short call, he was lost in gaze at her. "Is there something in my face, Yamato?" she asked. He shook his head.
God, I was blessed that Mimi's my future-wife, current fiancée. Her face was so innocent, and he's like a wolf ready to attack.
"I'm
done." She said. "Did it made you feel better?" he asked. She
nodded.
"A bit." She answered. "Well, let's go somewhere
else." Yamato said simply. Mimi's eyes widened.
"You
don't really have to do that." She answered back. "I'll just
go back home, look at the Classified Ads in today's newspapers."
She said. He rolled his eyes.
"Job, work, responsibility or
anything that are the synonyms of ambition, is that the only thing
you want to achieve?" he asked. She sighed.
"Can't you see
me situation? I'm a graduated student in a university with great
opportunity-" he cut her off.
"Argh! Stop nagging!" he said. She sighed. "Anyway, see you later." She bid goodbye and left the venue.
Yamato watched her walk alone through the glass. He really felt awful about her.
She sighed again. "Graduated student in a university with a great opportunity…what's the use? The course I took was useless." She said to herself.
She
wasn't watching where she's on foot, so she fell down on the
concrete floor.
"Sorry!" a masculine voice said, she looked
up. His hair was blonde, his eyes were azure and his face looks
really friendly. She smiled. He lent his hand, and she gratefully
took it.
"It's my fault." She answered. "Thanks anway." She said, continuing to walk to her destination. Woah…he's really cute.
The clouds were linked together again, as they all shielded the sun. It became gray.
"Oh man." She whispered as she looked up. "I better hurry." She said as she started to run. The blonde man watched her run.
"She's kinda pretty." He whispered. She tried to hail a taxicab, but it was useless. As soon as water droplets came from the heavens, she stayed in an alley. She rubbed her arms. The man looked for her. "Poor girl." He said.
Yamato alerted, as he searched for Mimi all over. "Fuck. Where could she be!" he cursed hysterically.
"Hey Miss, are you okay?" the same man she met asked. She nodded. "I could take you home, tell me where you live and I'll drive you in." he offered. She nodded, sniffing. "Thank you." She said.
She hopped in the car as he drove. She pointed out where she lives.
"Where could she be!" he said angrily, his hair was wet and watery, so as his body, but upon all of those, he didn't care. Though he still looks kawaii.
"Look, it's Ishida-kun! He looks so handsome when he's so wet!" a schoolgirl said to her friend and they giggled. He smiled at them then returned looking for Mimi.
"He seems kinda rushed." She said. Her friend nodded.
"Mimi! Fuck where the hell are you!" he cursed, he wanted to give up, but he couldn't leave her in the cold.
"Maybe she already went home." He told himself. He hopped in his car and went home.
"Thank you for dropping me. Oh, and I'm Mimi Tachikawa." She said carelessly, that she wasn't a Tachikawa anymore.
"No, it's my gratitude to help you, my name is Michael Duisame (don't know the last name!)." he introduced. "Well, goodbye!" he said as he was about to leave, but a black sports car parked in front.
He cocked a brow. Yamato saw Mimi there at the door. He sighed in relief. "Mimi, you're alright!" he said as he wrapped his arms around her. She felt awkward. "Yeah, I am." She said as she hugged back.
"Uhm…Tachikawa-san, who's he?" Michael asked. Yamato cringed. Mimi was speechless.
"Tachikawa-san? I think you got it wrong, she's an Ishida." He said, thickening the proper noun, "Ishida". Mimi shivered nervously.
"Mimi, are you engaged or married to Mr. Rockstar?" he asked sarcastically. Yamato wanted to punch him, but Mimi held his fist.
"I…I am not." She lied. Yamato frowned at her. He entered the penthouse disappointedly. Mimi felt guilty lying.
"oh, okay, see you Tachikawa-san!" Michael said as he waved his hand and left with his car.
She entered the penthouse, Yamato greeting her with a disappointed look.
"Look, I gotta explain this," she started.
"No need to, I know you don't really want me to be bethrothed to you." He said flatly.
"No,
I do not." She answered back.
"Well, why did you lie to him
that you're engaged to me? Oh, I get it, you fell in love at first
sight at that good for nothing pretty boy." He said sarcastically.
Mimi sighed.
"I'm not putting my burden to you." She said. He ignored her. "Or is it because you don't want to be humiliated that I'm your fiance?" he said.
"Look, this would've never started if I asked you to go out! Go on slap me for being a stubborn guy!" he said angrily.
"Yamato! Please stop!" she said. "Why do you care anyway? It's just a settled engagement. We're just forced to." She said highly.
"I care because I'm your fiance!" he answered frustratingly.
"So what if I am!" she said angrily.
"So what? I care you idiot!" he hollered back as he stood up
She sighed in relief. She looked at him calmly. "I…I am sorry." She apologized. He glared at her. "Should be!" he said. "Forgive me." She said as she walked over to him and pecked his lips. Not enough. He thought. He pulled her closer to him and leaned in to meet his lips to hers. They kissed passionately…
Wh…why can't I resist? He makes my stomach with butterflies. She thought.

Wo ai ni.
She parted away from him and realized what she just done.
She muttered a sorry and went inside her room, for the whole day, she locked herself, thinking about what's happening to her.
I'm dazed and confused. This reminds me of a Taiwanese show…what's the name again? Oh yeah, "Meteor Garden", from the Manga, "Hana Yori Dango." Hmm…It makes me now think I'm Xian Chai, Yamato, Dao Ming Su…awww….what the hell am I thinking?
At night, she didn't bother to eat for dinner. All she could think about now is herself. Sometimes, her thoughts lead her to tears, making her eyes swollen to fall asleep.
"Mimi, dinner's ready." Yamato said as he opened her door, but found she was fast asleep.
He smiled at her and closed the lights. "Good night, Mimi." He said quietly and shut the door.
The next morning, Mimi woke up early and decided to arrange her things, she hasn't started yet. She took a shower and wear her clothes; a denim blue triangle shaped tube that's only tied at her back, showing her bare back and waist, her jeans and flip flops. She put a bandana around her head and started to unpack.
As Yamato opened his eyes and spotted her in her room, arranging everything, he whistled at her mischieviously.
"Nice shirt you have there." He said, entering her room. She ignored him. When she turned her back, she faced Yamato, and she was trapped, both of his arms in her way.
"Let me pass." She said with a pissed off look. He grinned. "I really love your shirt." He said, looking at her neck, down to her shoulder as his eyes continously traveled down to her feet.
"I don't have time to kid around, you know." She said to him flatly. He smiled at her mischieviously as he leaned closer to her face, and brushed his lips against hers. He cupped her chin and his lips started to go down to her neck. His arms slithered like snakes, as his right hand holding the knot of her tube.
"Don't
go there." She warned him. He grinned mischieviously.
"You're
right, it's not a good environment here, maybe in my room?" he
said seductively.
She glared at him. He laughed. "Anyway, I
need to company later." He said.
"Ask someone except me. I'm busy; I need to go find some job. I mean, I'm a graduated student who-" he cut her off again.
"I know that, I know that! You really don't have to nag!" he said, looking very pissed.
As the two of them gone out for breakfast… Pancake House
"So,
let's just say, we're not engaged, yet. Got it?" Mimi said,
trying to convince him. He shook his head.
"I'm not a guy who
lies, you know." He said.
"But don't you know what danger can lead both of us? I mean, stalkers, criminals…or whatever yahooligans in." she said. "And also it won't ruin my identity to others info." She added.
"Fine. But you will be my girlfriend in media and public." He agreed. "Yamato, we're already in public." She reminded him.
He grinned. "You're right, babe." He said. "So, we start now?" she whispered to him. He didn't reply.
"Well, you are my girlfriend, so I'm inviting you to accompany me to the studio." He said with a flash smile.
She nodded slowly as a sign of unsure and agreement.
They left the building and started to act as a couple.
Hands linked.
Lips
are curved.
Hearts are fluttered.
They passed by five schoolgirls. The girls looked at their direction. "Ishida!" they all said in unison.
"He has a girlfriend!" one of them said.
They watched the two of them, cuddle each other. He kissed her lips softly, that made his fans' hearts, twisted.
"He does have!" They all said.
"Yamato, stop doing that." She warned him. "But lovers always do that." He reasoned.
"We're not really lovers, you know. We're a joke." She said seriously. He looked at her coldly.He felt like hands hammered his aching heart, the person he loves thinks, they're A joke? She thinks we're a joke while I take our relationship seriously? How low those she think of me!
"Shut the fuck up. If I want to, I'll have it." He said coldly. She looked at him, feeling like a knife just stabbed her heart. I've been cursed by my love! Reality check, Mimi, we're not lovers.
"You're hard as a rock." She complimented. He doesn't have the right to curse me. How dare he!
