Pairings: Kanata X Miyu (a little bit of Christine X Kanata)
Disclaimer: I do not own Daa! Daa! Daa! Alternatively, UFO baby…
/Let's Recall…/
Christine sat on a thick broken branch and remained quiet. Kanata sat down as well.
"Christine?" Kanata inquired.
"Kanata…" Christine mumbled.
/How could I say this? Gosh/ Christine thought.
"Well, how could I start?" she asked.
"You can start anywhere. You can both start in the beginning or end." Kanata replied and smiled.
/he smiled… Here it goes/ Christine closed her eyes and started speaking.
"Well Kanata, I really do not know if there is something between you and Miyu but I hope there is none. I really cannot help it. I cannot bare this anymore. I need to burst out my feelings. My feelings for you… My feelings since I met you…" Christine elucidated it soft but clear. Kanata was surprised with all of Christine's revelations.
"I LOVE YOU Kanata… Hope you can love me too…" Christine continued but now, tears flowed upon her soft cheeks. Kanata could not say anything. He was so speechless about this. His mind could not think much of it.
On the other hand, Miyu was still looking for them…
She was about to give up searching…
Yet…
She heard someone talking…
Talks with cries yet vague…
She cannot hear much of it but she tried to check it out…
/End of Recall…/
Chapter 6: "The Great Mix-Up"
Back with the gang…
All of them were busy doing their things. They did not even notice Miyu, Kanata and Christine were gone.
It is already an hour since the three were gone…
Nozomu cracking jokes with Aya and Nanami, Santa gathering and preparing all the fireworks that he has, Bow Meow was watching over the kids while they were playing. They were all enjoying their stay except for one…
Seiya…
Seiya was staring up high the dark blue skies and the stars above. He was thinking about his 'Special Mission…'
"Hey Seiya…" Bow Meow whispered as he noticed Seiya being solitary.
"What is it Bow Meow?" he replied stepping aside from his reveries.
"Mind if I ask you something?" Bow Meow inquired sticking his head out looking at him.
"Yeah, what is it?" Seiya answered.
"Why did you come here? What is your reason?" Bow Meow asked and stared at him.
Seiya did not reply. Instead, he smiled and again, he ogled up above.
"What's the matter?" Bow Meow continued. He looked very skeptical.
"Nothing…" Seiya said, still looking above.
"I just asked… It is not likely YOU going to another planet without a valid reason and unless you and your sister fought." Bow Meow stated.
"But I said in the letter that my sister and I had a fight. So I decided to cool down here." Seiya answered back in a calm manner.
"It is not the reason!" Bow Meow exclaimed.
"What do you mean?" Seiya was surprised to the sudden reaction.
"Since you came, I noticed how you stare at Ms. Miyu. I noticed something, hidden in the naked eyes. Something with somewhat… admiration… inspiration and…" Bow Meow ceased and looked down. Seiya felt his heart beat goes faster. He stared at Bow Meow, waiting him to continue his statement.
"And… Love" Bow Meow continued. Seiya heaved a sigh and smiled at him.
"Okay you win! But can we talk over this in a more private place?" Seiya requested.
"Okay… Uhmm… Ms. Aya, would you mind if we get inside already? I will have Lou and Momoka as well. You know, it is cold here and too much cold in the night is not good for youngsters like them." Mr. Dumpling elucidated in the very moment he went near them.
"I agree. Good night Lou." Aya replied.
"Sweet dreams sweet Lou! And also to you sweet Momoka!" Nozomu said popping out two roses for them.
"Yeah, good night Lou and Momoka…" Nanami tailed.
"Thanks…" Mr. Dumpling bowed, fetched the kids and together with Seiya, they went in.
Inside the rest house…
They let the kids continue their play and they sat on the sofa.
"I am here not because I want to cool down. About the fight my sister and I made, it was feign. I am actually here for a 'Special Mission'." Seiya initiated the conversation.
"Special Mission? About what?" Bow Meow inquired.
"A special mission on Miyu…" Seiya said windlessly.
"What?" Bow Meow was stunned and wished that Seiya's mission over Miyu had to be good.
"Bow Meow, can I trust you with a secret?" Seiya asked and leaned over Bow Meow.
"Su-Sure…" he replied hesitantly, afraid of what the secret will be.
"I… Love… Mi… Yu…" Seiya whispered. After he whispered, it gave Bow Meow the chills and the fears of having the secret. He was so surprised that he jumped off to his feet.
"Do you know that I have a position now at my sister's office? For Miyu I will sacrifice everything!" he continued.
His eyes were like pleading… his eyes were like hungry for Miyu's love.
"Are you INSANE Seiya?" Bow Meow exclaimed.
/ this cannot be! Ms. Miyu and Master Kanata were already happy with their current situation. Ms. Christine also got her feelings for Master Kanata. Now Seiya has his feelings for Ms. Miyu! Oh God! This is getting worst/ Bow Meow thought, sweats are now flowing.
"Maybe I'm already insane over Miyu. Why? Is there something wrong? She's still single right?" Seiya inquired to the sudden explanation.
"Uhmm…" Bow Meow's tongue was somewhat pulled in.
/ Stay away from it Bow Meow! Seiya must not know about Master Kanata and Ms. Miyu's relationship! You promised not to tell unless they said so. / the inner Bow Meow said and zipped his mouth shut.
Bow Meow seemed to stop by time.
"What's the matter?" Seiya asked.
"Oh, nothing…" Bow Meow replied waving his short furred arms.
"EVERYONE! CHECK OUT THE FIREWORKS!" Santa shouted.
Both of them ceased and stepped outside. The whole gang except Miyu, Kanata and Christine was beside Santa getting ready to fire the first firework. They were all excited to watch the fireworks that they did not anymore bother to probe their missing friends.
Tears continued to flow upon Christine's placid cheeks. Kanata cannot still believe on what he heard.
"Christine… please stop crying." Kanata said.
"No! Kanata, you just do not know how much I love you! How much I care for you! I am willing to sacrifice all of my riches and fame just for you and only for YOU! Please… please love me too…" Christine cried out.
"Christine…" All of these add up in Kanata's confusion. He definitely do not want to hurt Christine. He do not know what to do. Therefore, he just let the man inside take charge. He need to do something to stop Christine from crying.
He lifted his manly arms…
He moved near her…
Her eyes widen…
Christine was shocked…
She did not believe on Kanata's move…
On the other hand...
Miyu was still looking for them.
She heard someone talking.
Talks with cries.
The words were vague yet she can hear the absolute sobs.
She tried to reach to that voice.
A voice she was quite familiar with…
Her heart beats goes faster as she tackle every long grass and every branch just to reach that voice. Sweat started to flow.
"Kanata…" She whispered.
"It would be easier to probe if these grasses weren't here. It must have been a real forest in the eyes of many." She said. Miyu was having a hard time passing through the thick grasses.
Finally…
The voice was getting clearer…
It is a… girl…
A crying girl…
She wanted to help…
Closer…
Closer…
It is a familiar voice…
She ceased…
/ Where are you/ she thought. More sweat were flowing.
Closer…
She ceased again…
This time, a bundle of long leaves cover an empty spot. She can just see a thick branch that was broken and two pairs of feet. She was sure that behind those long thick leaves, was the voice crying.
At last…
Slowly…
She lifted her arms and tried to move the leaves.
She was about to ask the girl what is wrong when she saw something.
Miyu's voice suppressed and did not have the courage to speak...
Moreover…
Her eyes widen…
Back with the gang…
"READY?" Santa asked with his excited tone.
"ALL SET SANTA!" Aya and Nanami replied.
"HERE WE GO!" Santa shouted back.
"IN THREE… TWO…" Santa and the others counted off.
The place was dark yet she could see where Kanata was sitting. He can clearly see Kanata sitting.
Yet…
He was not alone…
Miyu rubbed her eyes to see whom Kanata is with…
The wind blew…
The night goes deep and the ambiance was getting colder…
As the wind blew, hair from the person whom Kanata was looking at swayed with the cold wind.
It was Christine…
Her eyes get wider…
She saw their position…
She saw that they were not just sitting face to each other…
She saw Kanata holding Christine tightly in his arms.
Christine was crying…
She did not let the two know that she was there yet; she does not know what to do. Her Koibito that promised loving her and only her is now, holding somebody else tightly in his arms. It is not being selfish of Miyu but she got the right to be jealous. She got the right to be mad. She got the right to ran and pick a fight to the girl her Koibito was holding. She can even make the girl be ashamed of herself for hugging a person who already got a vow to another girl. These entire she thought of doing but she did not. Instead, she thought of Christine being a well-trusted friend. Kanata as a faithful Koi who will keep his promise until the end.
Tears started to fall…
A combination of red, blue, yellow and orange flashed above them. It was Santa's fireworks that gave Miyu a barely light to see what they were doing.
More tears were falling…
She saw Christine with closed eyes…
Their lips met…
Christine was actually kissing Kanata…
Miyu was still in a state of being shocked and did not know what to do.
She cupped her mouth as she watched how they kiss.
Fireworks continued to flash…
She could not endure it anymore…
She ran away…
She ran away crying…
Crying…
Wishing that her tears would not stop…
She ran as fast as she could…
She finally reached the bon fire. She continued to run passing each everyone on her way. She tried to hide her tears yet, only Seiya noticed it.
She entered the rest house and went straight to the girls' room…
Back with Christine and Kanata…
"Christine stop it!" Kanata pulled himself.
"Why? Tell me why Kanata! TELL ME!" Christine continued to her whimpers and cries.
"It's because I love someone else…" Kanata windlessly said looking down.
"Who is she Kanata? Who is SHE?" Christine asked with a pleading tone.
"I… cannot tell…" Kanata replied.
"So-Sorry… I am not the ONE for you… Time will come and you will find your special someone. Sorry again…" Kanata continued.
Christine was helplessly crying on herself…
Kanata was trying his best to comfort her…
"Please…" Kanata said.
Christine ceased her cries and stood up. Kanata looked at her and offered his hanky to her yet, she rejected it.
"I have my own…" Christine said.
After she wiped them all, her eyes were somewhat puffy from the heavy cry.
"Christine…" Kanata said.
Christine smiled…
"Come on now Kanata. Everyone might be looking for us. We still need to get some woods. I'll just pretend that nothing happened since that no matter what I do, you'll never love me back." Christine elucidated.
Kanata stood up and both of them return to the rest house…
Back with the gang…
Everyone was enjoying the fireworks; they laughed and clapped their hands for it.
"Did you saw Miyu? Why did she enter already?" Nanami asked Aya.
"Maybe she's tired." Aya answered and clapped her hands to the fireworks.
"Look! There's Christine and Kanata with some woods!" Santa shouted as he lighted the next shot.
"Hi guys! The fireworks were great Santa!" Kanata said waving and smiling to them.
"Where have the two of you been?" Aya asked.
"Sorry, something just came up… It was nothing special…" Christine replied and sat near the bon fire.
"Kanata, little Miyu was looking for you an hour ago. She went searching for you then no less than ten minutes she came here looking sad." Nozomu said having Okane twirling with him.
"Miyu? Where is she?" Kanata whispered to Aya.
"She went straight inside the house. She seemed to be preoccupied by something." Aya exclaimed.
Kanata ran inside the house and knocked on the girls' door.
He heard Miyu crying…
"Miyu…Miyu! Open the door!" Kanata exclaimed as he knocks.
The cries continued…
"Please Miyu… We need to talk!" Kanata persuasively knocks.
Not long after, the door opened. Miyu stood in front of him with red puffy eyes.
"I saw it all… I saw the both of you… How could you? How could you do this to me?" Miyu spilled all of these in one breath.
"Please let me explain…" Kanata pleaded.
"How could you say that I am the only one you love? How could you promise such an eminent pledge? How could you! I do not want to talk to you anymore! Leave me alone! LIAR!" Miyu baffled and ran towards the comfort room. Kanata ceased from moving as he heard Miyu shouted 'LIAR' to him. It flashed him back to one of his dreams…
/ FLASHBACK… /
"My heart beats only because of YOU… " he continued and he closed his eyes.
"Kanata…" Miyu replied for the first time.
"Yes my Miyu?" he opened his eyes and asked.
"Will you leave me?" Kanata was surprised in Miyu's question.
"Of course not! Why would I leave someone that I truly loved?" Kanata answered and smiled.
Kanata noticed Miyu shooked her head.
The wind blew and Miyu's golden hair danced swiftly with it…
"THAT IS A LIE!" Miyu windlessly said.
"What?" Kanata asked surprised.
"LIE!" Miyu continued.
/ END OF FLASHBACK… /
After the fireworks, Mr. Dumpling carried Lou on his back and Momoka on his arms. Aya and Nanami went off to bed as well. Santa placed the leftovers in a bucket full of water. Nozomu went inside twirling half asleep. Everyone went to his or her respective rooms. Miyu went out of the comfort room and stepped outside. She sat in front of the washed woods and shrugged her shoulders.
It was getting cold…
In the moment of solitary, she was still thinking on what she saw. She could not believe it. She shrugged her shoulders tighter and rubbed her hands.
It was getting colder…
Looking at the distant skies, she did not notice that 'someone' was at her back.
That 'someone' wrapped a thick blanket around her. Miyu was surprised and looked up.
That 'someone' was Seiya…
Seiya smiled and sat beside her.
"You might catch a cold out here…" Seiya said.
"Thanks Seiya." Miyu gladly accepted the blanket.
"May I ask you something?" Seiya initiated.
"Yes?" Miyu asked back.
"Why are you crying a while ago?" Seiya looked straight in Miyu's eyes.
"That was nothing…" Miyu replied.
"Is it Kanata? Is he being harsh on you again?" Seiya continued his interrogation.
He received no answer but Miyu showed some tears. She cannot help it but to cry. Seiya moved near her and placed her head on his shoulders…
"Miyu, I'll be always here for you. Remember that…" Seiya softly said.
The two of them sat there until Miyu fell asleep. Seiya fixed Miyu's position and carried her inside the girls' room. He finally went inside their room and fell asleep…
Not knowingly, that everything now was being under a vigilant eye of a silhouette…
'Who is he?'
