Summary:
Rue came back and confesses everything to Ahiru, now it's up to her and Princess Tutu on how they'll handle this and Fakir too…
Chapter 12: That's what Friends are for…
Earlier that day the two came to the school very late and this made Mr. Cat really very unhappy. He was used to see Ahiru tip-toeing from the door praying he wont see her, but not this young man besides her, Fakir, now that's a new story.
Mr. Cat is endlessly tapping his foot on the floor before he look at them again and sigh
"I can understand that it is Ahiru's habit on coming to school late but you Fakir is different" he sigh again "If you have any excuse for this, I think now is the best time for you to narrate it"
But Fakir didn't utter a single word to him, not even a sound came out of his mouth and Ahiru saw that Mr. Cat is growing impatient and Ahiru being Ahiru decided to take control of the situation in her hands.
"Ahm, Mr. Cat actually it was my fault" she called. She successfully took their Cat teacher's attention.
Both Fakir and Mr. Cat look at her, then she began narrating her story pretty similar to what happened earlier in Fakir's apartment, well that's what Fakir thought.
She began by saying she woke up earlier this morning and was all ready to go to school but on their way they met a little bird who fell on top of her fluffy head. It seems to be pretty wounded so she decided to nurse it back to help for a while and asked Fakir to help out, and without noticing how time flies, they totally forgotten about it but still decided to go to attend the class.
Ahiru narrated her story with adding hand gestures for special effects, but Mr. Cat was not really interested on buying her story
"You know Ahiru, you could be an excellent story teller than a dancer" Mr. Cat sarcastically said
"What really, I'm flattered but I have already put my heart to ballet so I can't be. Anyway do you really think I can be a good story teller?" Ahiru said over excited and wearing her idiotic expression
"I change my mind, NO" Mr. Cat coldly said to her; Fakir sigh and utter the word "BAKA"
Mr. Cat then look at the young man besides the shock Ahiru
"I really don't buy her story, but whatever your reason is, I believed and trust you"
"WHHAAAT! But he didn't even spoken any single word explaining it" Ahiru protested
"Exactly; Now Fakir I'm sorry but you still have to do the detention cleaning after class with Ahiru" then Mr. Cat beam at him "And if you one of you, no if both of you escape you'll just have to marry my children and that doesn't exclude you Fakir"
Mr. Cat left the two teenagers sweat dropping and amazed on just how Mr. Cat is so desperate to get his kitten get married.
"I guess he still dreams of having one of his students be apart of his family" Ahiru choke
Fakir was about to leave but remembered something and face her again.
"Later after class, wait for me before you do our cleaning work" he instructed and Ahiru just nod her head and left him
'I'm sorry but I have other plans now' she though walking towards Lilie and Pike; she greeted them and the two look at her
"Oh Good morning Ahiru" Pike said smiling at her
"You know, if you continue doing this same habit, you'll just have to marry Mr. Cats kittens sooner than we have anticipated" Lilie tease
"Oh but that won't happen any time soon Lilie" she announce making the two look at each other and to her again
"What are you thinking?" they both ask
"Can you do a little favor? It's just something to be done after class" she said and drag her two friends in one corner instructing her plan to them
Meanwhile Kai greeted Fakir; as usual this made Fakir really irritated
"Morning Mr. Late Pants" Kai said taping his shoulder
"I'll kill you" he just said seating on the floor to do some stretching
Kai just smile at him and copy what he was doing
"You seem very tired and stress, did something happen?" Kai ask again smiling at him; Fakir didn't bother to look at him and just continues what he was doing "I hope our Ahiru has nothing to do with this"
Fakir look at him 'how could he be so mysterious and so annoying at the same time' he thought
"Nothing for you to care about" he replied at the young stranger
"Whatever" he shrug then stood up but before moving away "just remember, I can be of help in anytime soon"
Fakir's eyes follow him until his gaze met his duck who was happily stretching her muscles while chatting with her friends.
After class, Fakir look around for Ahiru but saw no trace of her shadow.
'He must have left' he thought walking out of the room and into the next hall.
Fakir entered the grand hall and began searching at Ahiru who he thought was supposed to be there already
'Weird' he thought then his thoughts were disturbed by two girl giggling at the corner who didn't saw him enter the room; she know who those two are, so decided to approach them
"Hey what do you think Lilie" Pike ask waving the letter on her hand
"Don't ask me but she strictly told us not to open this" Lilie said shrugging her shoulders
"I wonder what happened, well here he comes" Pike said jumping on her feet to greet him
Fakir was just about to open his mouth when Pike reach her hands and handed him the letter
"This is from Ahiru?" he ask, the two girls nod their heads
"She said this is strictly for you and that we are not allowed to open it" Lilie said playfully, having her favorite joyful look "And we obediently abide to it"
Fakir took it and look at them
"Thanks, did she say anything else?" the two girls look at each other then frown
"Well, she also said she was 'sorry' but she has other plans today" Pike said giving him a faint smile.
The room was embrace with silence and only to broken by Lilie's nonsense joke
"You were dump" Lilie proudly proclaim. The character spell 'DUMP' flew towards the three of them as background. Fakir looks like he just was ransacked by some burglar.
Pike hit Lilie's head who just signed a peace sign at him
"Don't listen to her" Pike said glaring back to Lilie.
Fakir was still in shock but regain his posture when Pike's tone turns serious, very unlikely to their normal over joy toned
"Look, I don't know why she did that but knowing Ahiru, everything will turn out okay" she said smiling
"Yup! She maybe stupid and unbelievable sometimes but as her friends, she always do things that would make everybody feel happy" Lilie second emotion
'Those two, they are always so loyal to her' he thought and began opening the letter on his hands
"Well we better get going, our work here is done" Pike said grabbing Lilie's hand and dragging her out of the room
"Bye-bye" Lilie manage to utter before they completely banished.
Fakir continue reopening her letter and took a deep breath before reading them; he was preparing for whatever that stupid duck wrote.
Dearest Fakir,
Please don't scold me!
A vein pop out of no where on his temple and growling at the same time thinking the nerve of that woman before continue reading it
I have a very good reason in doing this but I'm really sorry for breaking the promise. Earlier today, Rue told me everything… it seems like I wasn't really destined to happy at all, so I decided to follow my own role instead after I did returned to as Princess Tutu… so I feel oblige to do it.
I know you'll try everything to follow where I am but please don't. It would be the best for both of us and just forget about me
And about Mytho, I'll bring him back, promise…
Take care, Ahiru
Fakir crumple the letter in his hands that curling into a fight fist before punching the mirror on his side. The mirror breaks into many pieces and scattered on the grand hall's floor with blood from Fakir's wounded hand.
"Baka! You are a Princess Ballerina and not wonder woman! How can you say that to your letter? How can you say to just forget all about you? You…You are just plain IDIOT!" Fakir yell
To be continue!
