It's been fifty minutes since Ken had entered and all that has been going on is Ayano handing him a tissue paper and Ken weeping his misery on Ayano's sofa which had gone almost wet. Ayano decided it time to stop him now.

"Ken."

"….." all that Ken said was some inaudible baby sounds.

"You sound like a baby when you cry".

"Really…." He had started to drift apart abit.

"Yeah, any girl will like you." Ayano gave an encouraging smile.

"But I love Jewel. " And he was going to throw another waterfall off his eyes.

"Hey, you. Listen. Enough is enough. You had been howling for the past one hour. If that female doesn't realize your importance I think you're a jerk to waste so much water off your body." Ayano literally shouted on him.

Ken actually looked at her with astonished eyes and his jaw dropped off.

Ayano felt she shouldn't have said that but right now that's what she was thinking. She said softly, "Listen Ken…."

"No…."he raised a hand infront of her. Ayano thought he might have become more upset and angry on her but to her surprise, Ken dramatically threw away the tissue and said,"You're absolutely right!"

"I am?" surprised by the not-so-expected reaction Ayano twisted her brow.

"Of course you are. She never thought about me when she was making love to that idiot so why should I care? She wanted me to leave her and I will do that!" Ken looked at her with eyes beaming with confidence and pride.

"Ken never bows to anyone!" he inflated his chest . Ayano feeling that the peace is finally achieved said,"So now let me make you some hot chocolate."

"Thanks Ayano a lot" Ken sat down and hugged Ayano in a grateful way. Ayano feeling satisfied hugged him back," You're welcome. But you're gonna treat me a dinner for today".

"A dinner ? I thought an ice-cream would do." Ken said complainingly.

"Shut up. You're treating me a dinner." Ayano slapped playfully. "I'll go and get hot chocolate".

When Ayano returned from the kitchen Ken started to tell her,"Back in high school, I isolated myself from all my friends and made Jewel my prime concentration. My day started with Jewel and ended with her. Life was unthinkable without her. Now as a result I do not have any friends. I sacrificed everything to be with her. So I came to you"

"It's no big deal Ken. You're welcome to share your problem. "

"No thanks really. It killed me today if you hadn't been there. Have you ever been in love?"

Ayano thought about it and gave a pained smile."Yes".

"You're in a relationship?" Ken asked with bulging eyes. He was shocked.

"ohh…no! That guy never loved me so well it was never a relationship. Just a proposal and a rejection."

"Why wouldn't he? You're not that bad".

"That bad?" Ayano raised her eyebrow. "What do you mean by that bad?"

"well, "that bad" means not "so good" . Its just somewhere in average. You know what I mean." Ken said playfully.

"Is this the way you pull legs?" Ayano laughed.

"Hey no way I'm pulling your leg. I was being honest." Ken trying to put an innocent face.

"well I gotta say…you're the most terrible actor I have met."

Ken giggled and yawned at the same time. "Hey you just gawned". Ayano laughed.

"Gawned? What's that?",

"It when you giggle and yawn at the same time".

"You're so stupid."

"No I'm sleepy."

"Allright I'll leave now", Ken got up.

"No stay. " Ayano said.

Ken turned around with a smart look and said," I know Ayano you might be thinking that I'm an easy catch since I just had a breakup but lemme tell you that I'm not that…"

Ayano had hardly let him finish his sentence before she had started hitting him with a cushion.

"Stop speaking rubbish . I asked you to stay since its very late and your house is far. " Ayano was still hitting him with cushion.

"Okay okay, I was it now" Ken laughed off as he dodged her hits.

Throwing the cushion at him Ayano said," I'm sleeping upstairs. Manage yourself some place here."

"You're so mean" Ken scrunched his nose.

"And you're so stupid", Ayano made a face and went upstairs. Ken returned her with a face and took to the couch. Both were so tired that they dozed off the minute they hit the soft surface.

Ayano got up at 8:50 and she rushed up to get ready.

She shouted downstairs ," Ken get up!"

Ken was still in his dreamland and wasn't hearing anything what Ayano was saying. While Ayano started setting up the breakfast she used the alarm noise near his ear to drill him out of sleep. And he woke up in a shocked state. Looking at her activity, "Whats wrong with you?!"

Ayano kept the clock aside and told him," Whats wrong with you. It's going to be 9. Get up and freshen up before we both get late. There's an extra toothbrush in the washroom. Go fast"

Ken seemingly in an irritated and disturbed mood quickened his pace and was in the dining table in a few minutes.

Ayano finished up first followed by Ken and in a jet speed they were infront of the door.

As Ayano opned it, Kazuma was standing right there outside going to ring her bell. From behind , Ken peeped to see who's there only to find a perplexing situation.

Ayano was standing there her heart beat skipping now and then to see the man of her dreams at her doorstep. On the other hand Kazuma in a confused state with an irritated look on his face to find another guy with Ayano in her house in morning. Before he greeted Ayano, he tilted his head to see the messy head of Ken and made a rude comment," Who's that boy". It was more of a statement than a question.

Guys…..thank you soo soo much for your reviews. I did add a lot of twist to Ayano and Kazuma's characters so it must be a bit difficult for you to understand. But I hope you'll cope with it and enjoy the update. See ya soon.
