Chapter 2:
Momo just ran and ran, she didn't know where to go. She just knew that she didn't want to stop and think about the pain, her heart has been shattered, by Kiley, who told her that he'd never do anything to hurt her. But it was just a bunch of bullshit, lies, they were all like that, everybody, they were all against her.
Momo knew that she had to get to somewhere dry because she was drenched from the rain. She was looking for a dry place to sit down at when she saw a bright light and somebody pushing her away and on to the ground.
"Watch where you're going! Do you want to die??" A voice said, Momo thought it was familiar but couldn't figure out who.
"Sure, why not. It's better than being alive. Everybody would be a lot happier if I wasn't around." Momo said bitterly, not turning around to see who her rescuer is.
"Momo? Is that you?" The stranger said.
Momo turned around and realized... "Toji? When did you get back?"
"It IS you! I got back a week ago. What's wrong?" Toji asked as he saw her puffy eyes, indicating that she was crying.
Momo: "Oh, umm, nothing, I'm fine." forcing a sly smile. And knew that she wasn't fooling anyone, she said, "My boyfriend just, uh, dumped me..."
Toji: "Oh hey, if he broke up with you then that's his loss Mo! Who was it?"
Momo: "Ha, you should know him, I've been obsessing about him since Junior High."
Toji: "What Kiley?? That JERK?!? I never liked him from the start. Remember how I always told you not to get involved with that guy??"
Momo: "This isn't time for a lecture Toji" she snapped, her anger taking over.
Toji: "Oh sorry, here, I'll take you home, you're drenched."
Momo: "............Fine........"
Back at her house
Toji's POV
Momo took a shower while Toji waited in the living room. It has been 3 years since he's been in here. It felt nice. Seeing Momo again was... interesting for him. He thought his feelings for her was gone, he knew that she didn't like him. That her heart belonged to Kiley but he just couldn't help himself. Momo was unique, she always made him feel good inside no matter what, he just couldn't let her go. He even went to the states hoping to forget about Momo, but it never happened, she never left his heart. He heard footsteps coming and turned to see Momo in her pajamas. She never looked more pretty.
Momo: "Sorry..."
Toji: "For what?"
Momo: "I don't know, for being such a freak! You shouldn't have seen me like that."
Toji: "You know, It's ok to be weak. If you don't mind, can you tell me what happened with Kiley?
Momo: "It's simple, he started liking somebody else and dumped me."
Just then, somebody knocked on the door. Momo went to open it and Kiley was standing there.
Momo: "What do you want?" with a cold stare in her eyes.
Kiley: "Wait Momo, can you just let me explain?"
Momo: "There's nothing to explain Kiley, you don't like me, you like Sae, you made it pretty clear." and tears just started to roll down
Kiley: "No, let me explain the rest of the story."
Toji: "Can't you see what you did? Why are you hurting her more. Just leave." Toji said appearing from behind the door.
Kiley: "Who the hell are YOU?"
Toji: "I'm Toji." Toji said putting an arm around Momo's shoulder.
Momo looked up shocked, but let Toji do it, she wanted to get back at Kiley for hurting her.
Kiley: "What are you doing here?" Kiley said reaching out to get Toji's arm off of Momo.
Momo: "What are you doing? You BROKE UP with me Kiley! Why are you getting mad over this?"
Kiley: "Can you just please give me a chance to explain Momo? PLEASE!! And I'll never ask anything from you again!"
Momo: "Kiley, I can't STAND this! Why are you doing this to me? Why??"
Kiley pulled Momo into a hug and whispered into her ear, "Momo, I'm sorry, I still love you, there's a reason why I did this, I just need you to understand and not give up on me, there's a reason, I can't tell you or else Sae will just ruin you. I'm sorry, don't be hurt, know that I'm still there for you. It broke my heart to have to break up with you Momo! Believe me, I promised you I wouldn't hurt you and I'm not about to break that." after that, he let her go and looked to Toji, "Take care of her ok? When I'm not around..." and he left.
