Chapter 11- Break up
Luna asked Yzak, " What's the punishment?" Yzak said, " The principal hasn't given any punishment yet, but he said he will." Luna said, " You are pitiful."
Yzak thought out loud, " I will get my revenge, Cagalli Yula Athha." Everybody turned to look at Yzak. Cagalli said, " Revenge? You won't have any revenge!"
Yzak opened his mouth to speak but was stopped by Ms Murrue. Ms Murrue ordered, " Cagalli and Yzak, please stop."
Athrun held Cagalli's hand tightly, " No matter what he does, I will protect you." Cagalli looked at Athrun and muttered, " Thanks."
At the Clyne Mansion…The four girls were seated in a big, comfy sofa in the living room of the Clyne Mansion. Lacus said, " Next friday is the ball. What are all of you going to wear to the ball?"
Mir said, " I will wear a purple laced gown that Dearka had given to me on my birthday." Luna said, " I will be wearing a white gown. What about you, Lacus?"
Lacus smiled, " I will be wearing a pink gown. How about you, Cagalli?" Cagalli frowned at the thought of gowns. She said, " I will be wearing shirt and pants."
Lacus looked shocked, " The dress code for ladies is gowns." Cagalli frowned, " I don't like to wear gowns." Mir smiled, " We will help you."
Luna said, " Yea, we will. Have you got any gowns?" Cagalli nodded her head, " Father bought it for me." Mir said excitedly, " Let's go see the gown then!"
Cagalli led them into her bedroom. She opened her wardrobe and took out an apple green gown with a sash. Luna exclaimed, " Wow! It's so pretty! And it's so new."
Cagalli snapped, " Of course it is new. I only wore it once before!" Lacus picked up some strings that were apple green in colour, " What are these?"
Cagalli said, " It's for me to tie my hair." Lacus giggled, " I will help you." Cagalli mumbled, " Thanks." Mir said, " Athrun would be captivated by you!"
Cagalli pretended to hit Mir, " Don't talk nonsense!" Mir poked her tongue out at Cagalli. Lacus said, " Stop fighting." Luna suggested, " You all want to see my gown?"
The three girls exclaimed, " Yes!" Luna led them into her bedroom. Meanwhile, at Kira's house, the boys were also talking about the ball.
Athrun teased Yzak, " Yzak, who are you going with?" Yzak said, " Of course Dearka!" Deaka shouted, "No! I am going with Mir! Besides, I am not a gay. Find another gay."
All of them laughed. Kira said, " Let's don't care about Yzak. What are you all wearing to the ball?" All of them said in unison, " Tuxedos!"
Kira said, " Do you have the money?" Athrun said, " Of course I have." Kira smiled, " How about the others?" Shinn said, " Borrow from Kira or Athrun!" Dearka and Yzak said, " Yea!"
Athrun and Kira shouted, " No!" Yzak gave a wicked grin, " Then watch out, Kira and Athrun! Your closed ones will get their revenge!"
At school…Yzak was scribbling on the wall, writing ' Dear Athrun, I love you! Love, Cagalli." Ms Talia was walking towards her office and she saw the writing.
She mumbled, " Cagalli? Isn't she the Princess of Orb?" Fan girls of Athrun gathered around the wall, gritting their teeth.
In the class…Boys were making fun of Cagalli. Girls were saying, " She don't need to do that to confess her love." Cagalli walked back to her place and was thinking of what happened just now.
Just then, Kira rushed in and shouted, " Cagalli!" Cagalli was snapped out of her thoughts. She snapped, " What?"
Kira motioned Cagalli to follow him. When they reached the wall, Cagalli was shocked. Cagalli insisted, " It wasn't me." Just then, Stellar came rushing to Cagalli, " Bad news! Mr Durandal and Ms Talia are looking for you!"
Cagalli mumbled, " Uh-oh…" She walked worriedly to the principal's office. When she stepped into the office, she saw Athrun sitting on a chair opposite the principal and vice-principal.
She quickly sat down beside Athrun. Ms Talia began, " Ms Cagalli, as you know, vandalism is not allowed in our school. So, can you explain why you wrote all those things on the wall?"
Cagalli tried to act calm, " It wasn't me." Ms Talia questioned, " Then who?" Just then, somebody knocked on the door. Mr Durandal said, " Come in."
Meer walked in and pushed Cagalli away and sat down beside Athrun. Ms Talia frowned at Meer, " What is it?" Meer said, " I saw the person who wrote all those nonsense on the wall."
Mr Durandal said, " Who?" Meer began, " Well, it's Yzak Joule. That silver hair freak." Ms Talia scolded, "Please do not tease people." Meer ignored her. Meer hugged Athrun, " Dear Athrun, long time no see."
Ms Talia cleared her throat, " Please, no hugging here." Meer released Athrun and winked at him. Athrun turned to Cagalli who was seeing if she had any injuries.
Athrun walked to her, " You alright?" Cagalli snapped, " Of course I am. You took so long to ask me whether I am alright."
Mr Durandal said, " Okay, thanks. You may go out." Athrun, Cagalli and Meer walked out of the office. Cagalli mumbled thanks. Meer snapped, " Don't need to thank me. I am doing this for Athrun's sake. I don't want you to ruin Athrun's reputation."
Cagalli said, " It's basic courtesy!" Athrun said, " Stop quarreling. Meer, get lost now." Meer retorted, " But…" Athrun snapped, " No buts." Meer pouted and walked away.
Meer mumbled, " What's so good about Cagalli? Is Cagalli that special?" Meanwhile, Cagalli walked the opposite way. Athrun ran after her, " Wait for me."
Cagalli turned around, " You should be asking that Meer to wait for you." Athrun said, " Let's not care about Meer." Cagalli returned to the classroom, " Yzak, you are in deep trouble now!"
At the canteen…Stellar came running over to the group of boys. Shinn was afraid that Stellar was going to harass him again. But, Stellar said breathlessly, " Yzak, the principal is looking for you."
Yzak nodded his head, " I think it's the punishment." On his way to the principal's office, he was wondering what the punishment would be. He thought, " Has the principal found out?"
He knocked on the office door. Mr Durandal ordered him to come in. Yzak sat at the chair opposite Mr Durandal. Mr Durandal cleared his throat and said, " Talia, you tell him."
Ms Talia began, " Mr Yzak, I supposed you know something about the scribbling on the wall?" Yzak lied, " What wall? I didn't know anything." Mr Durandal shouted, " Don't lie! You were the one who vandalized the wall."
Yzak was shocked, " How did you know?" Ms Talia said, " You don't have to know that. From today onwards, you are not supposed to harm Ms Cagalli in any way."
Mr Durandal said, " And the punishments, it will be…" Yzak looked at Mr Durandal, " What?" Ms Talia said, " You have to clean the canteen for 2 days. This takes effect starting from today." Yzak pleaded, " Can you lessen the punishment to a hour?"
Ms Talia shook her head, " This is what you deserve." Yzak left the office, crying. Luna was making her way to the staff room when she saw Yzak walking. Luna asked, " Yzak, why are you crying?"
Yzak mumbled, " The punishment." Luna gasped, " What's the punishment?" Yzak cried even louder. Luna said, " Okay, okay. Don't cry." Yzak looked at Luna and hugged her.
Luna tried to push Yzak away, but Yzak was too strong. Shinn was wondering where Luna was when he saw Yzak hugging Luna. Shinn shouted, " Yzak Joule, what do you think you are doing? Luna is my woman, not yours!"
Luna blushed at the sentence, " Luna is my woman." But, Shinn misunderstood her blush. He pointed at Luna, " Lunamaria Hawke, what are you blushing at? Are you that comfortable in Yzak's arms?"
Before Luna could explain, Shinn said with tears streaming down his face, " Let's break up!" Luna said, " No!" Yzak tried to explain, " It's not what you think. I treat Luna as a friend. As a best friend!"
Shinn wiped away his tears, " I don't want to hear any explanation from you." After finishing his sentence, Shinn ran away. By that time, Luna had already broke free from Yzak's hug.
Luna stood in one corner, crying. She shouted, " Why? Why did this happen?" Yzak patted Luna on the back and trying to console her. Yzak said, " You can cry on my shoulders, come on."
Luna cried in Yzak's shoulders. She told him, " I love him so much, yet he misunderstood me. Maybe I should not have agreed to the operation. Now it's too late!" Yzak gasped, " Operation? What operation?"
