Love Triangle
Chapter 16. Pulling The Strings
Author's Notes: I've been away for so long, you probably forgot the plot =_=
Anyway, even though I was busy taking tests and crying, I'm back now! I hope you're all okay about the hiatus…
Sometimes, Asano sits back and think. What if this whole world is just a stage, and we are merely puppets? All of us, just children's toys.
But that's just silly thinking, of course. Why does he even waste times thinking about it? His father surely will be dissapointed seeing such nonsense in the house.
Lately, Asano act almost like a madman.
He's just not… quite him anymore.
Almost like a broken toy, he would sometimes spend an entire hour just sitting there.
He wants to own everything. Every. Single. Little. Thing.
Sure, he doesn't shout out loud about wanting it. He doesn't whine. You just simply feel his thirst for the item in his eyes, deep in his soul.
The truth is, he has been indulging in being love.
Love.
For the first time ever, he knows the feeling of love.
Even if this love is filthy. Even if it's not "right".
Yes, because of him, the madman, that Nagisa hasn't been quite himself whenever it comes to love.
Yes, it's all because of him, manipulating minds for his own good.
But truly, is it bad? Is it really really that bad?
He just wants attention, that's all, like a three-year-old child.
It's not his fault if he didn't receive all the love that he deserved.
It's the adults' faults. It's his father's fault. If they just raise him like any other child, then he would have been like any other child. He wouldn't have been completely nuts like this.
Stuck in a "perfect" schedule. Becoming a "perfect" role-model. Living in his "perfect" father's shadow.
He should not regret for what he has done.
They knew this day was coming. This day was destined to come. The day he becomes crazy.
He wants love.
He wants Nagisa.
Nagisa.
Innocent Nagisa.
Asano loves Nagisa.
His hair is so soft and silky, isn't it?
His skin is so smooth, isn't it?
His eyes sparkle under the moonlight, right?
Don't you just love how he blushes?
His heart, pure and forgiving, can fuel Asano for an eternity.
His love for Nagisa is almost like a blind love.
He wants to see Nagisa's love for him.
He wants to see that small mouth and soft lips whisper his name.
He wants to do dirty things to Nagisa.
Stealing Nagisa's innocence, doesn't it sound good?
He has been planning his way this whole time, to make Nagisa truly his.
If Nagisa's skin doesn't carve his name and if Nagisa's finger doesn't carry the red string to his heart… If Nagisa's body doesn't yearn for him, then he simply has to make that happen.
Saying "I love you" isn't enough.
Hugging and cuddling isn't enough.
Kissing isn't enough.
At least, not for him.
It has to be something more.
And if he can have that, then why can't he have everything else?
Pulling strings on the whole world, if he knows how to use it right, not even his father can stop him. He can have everything, and anything. Then, he and Nagisa can live happily ever after as the rulers of the whole world.
But that dream started to break when Nagisa got hit by a truck. The dream now has a big crack on it, as if it's teasing him, as if it's mocking him. It's muttering the digusting insults that he will never achieve a happy ending.
Asano knew he should have monitored Nagisa. He should have.
Something as big as a traffic accident should bring his memories back, either when his head hits the truck or when he fell onto the ground. Either way, Asano's doom.
Once Nagisa starts remembering, it will be harder to brainwash him. He would also tell Karma, and that would ruins Asano's ideals, as Nagisa becomes more protected.
As long as Nagisa still remembers, he can't show his face around the blue-haired boy. Nagisa will hate him, for sure.
He was supposed to be the one who pulls the strings, not the other way around.
How can he flip this situation?
Well, he's just got an idea.
