CHAPTER 4
In the plane, Kurata assigns the seat after a few complaints. Like it or not, he, Akira and Ochi sat together. The row behind them is Yashiro, Hikaru and Waya. Isumi and Honda sat at the third row.
Akira's heart sank when Kurata orders him to take a seat on the first row while Hikaru will be sitting behind. Waya protests when he was placed on the third row so Kurata asks Isumi to sit behind and gave Waya his seat. The excited Waya soon doze off (he was too excited that he hardly slept at all last night), leaving Hikaru and Yashiro to chat among themselves.
"Ah this is so fun. First time I board a plane."
"You too?" Yashiro looks at Hikaru
"Yeah... and first time I'm going overseas too. Though China is not too far from Japan but it's still somewhere OUT of Japan." He chuckles softly. Yashiro looks at Hikaru unbelievably. What? This guy still has the mood to laugh? Didn't he know the situation now? Upon noticing that, Hikaru spoke.
"Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Oi... you... you... didn't you know the situation now?" Yashiro whispered to him in order to avoid others from eavesdropping.
"What situation?" Hikaru answers with a blur look.
"Ha?" Yashiro gave him an are-you-stupid-or-what look.
"What? Anything happened?" Hikaru asks anxiously.
"Are you born retarded?" with that Hikaru hits Yashiro with his book.
"That was rude!!! I might be slow in observing others but I am certainly not retarded!"
"Shhhhhh not so loud!" Yashiro whispered furiously. How can someone be so stupid as not to realize what's happening around him?
"What? You are going to tell me a secret?" Hikaru spoke quietly but in an excited voice of a five-year-old kid.
Yashiro was taken back by his words. A secret? Surely it's not a secret... it was so obvious, written all over their face! But wait... this retarded guy did not know what is happening. Then it is a secret after all. Am I right?
After cracking his brain for sometime Yashiro decides to keep it to himself. It is not nice to tell Hikaru about other people's personal stuffs. Plus, he cannot be 100% certain about the current situation. He might be wrong (hopefully)... Well, he is not going to tell Hikaru anything. He has decided not to meddle in their affairs.
"Shin—"but Hikaru was fast asleep. He woke up early today to do last minute packing and is tired now.
"Phew—"Yashiro sigh in relief. If Hikaru is asleep, there's no need for him to explain anything now. Before long, all 8 of our kishi are fast asleep...
At the Beijing Airport...
"(Yawn) more than two hours of flight... this is certainly exhausting although we have been sleeping in the plane."
"Yea..." Hikaru nodded in agreement.
"Ok guys, first thing first. Let's grab a bite."
"Kurata-san, shouldn't we check-in to the hotel first?"
"Touya is right." (Ochi)
"Fine... we check in to the hotel first..." Kurata gave up since he is tired too. Plus, bringing his bag everywhere he goes is troublesome. They might as well put their stuffs in the room and take a good bath before they settle down for dinner.
But at the hotel reception, there's an argument.
"No, I want to share a room with Hikaru..."
"Ah, I am not used to sharing room with others... I didn't know its twin sharing... but..."
"Whichever room doesn't matter... hurry up."
"I need to go to the bathroom."
"Ah I am hungry... "
"I'm tired"
"I need a bed"
The reception is noisy but no one seems to be making any decision on who will be sharing with whom. The assistant manager comes out to help them deal with the matter. The hotel needs the accurate name and information on the room number and guests. Finally Hikaru spoke up:
"I'll share a room with Touya since he's not used to sharing with others."
Waya gasp in horror but nothing came out.
"Then Kurata-san and Yashiro in one room, Waya and Isumi in the next. Ochi and Honda shall share a room. Settled?"
(At this point Yashiro was thinking to himself, "What? Me and Kurata-san sharing a room!? I can't stand people who snore!" Kurata's snore was the loudest in the plane. No doubt.)
"Which room number? Room 705, 706, 707 and 708 is under your reservation." the assistant manager said.
"We will take the first room. 705" Kurata said. "Shindo and Touya take 706, Waya and Isumi in 707 and Honda, Ochi will be in 708."
Ochi protested silently as he did not want to stay in a room with Honda. Worst of all, his room and Akira's room is not even next to each other.
"I don't want to sleep in a room with Honda."
"Huh?" everyone looked at Ochi.
"Why?" Kurata asks him.
"... ... ..."
"Fine... make a switch. You and Yashiro in one room and I'll take the room with Honda." Kurata is about to lose his patience. What's wrong with them? Ever since this morning they have all been arguing about seats and who's sharing with whom. Does it really matters?
"This way, please." The bellman leads the way.
All 8 kishi soon found themselves on the seventh floor of the hotel. Yashiro who's holding the key opened the door. Next to them, Hikaru opens the door while Akira holds his bag. Isumi unlock his room door with an eye on the disappointed Waya. Kurata and Honda went in to their room with puzzled expression (about Ochi and what happened today)...
Yuii-chan: hehehehe don't you think Yashiro is interesting? I kind of like Yashiro especially in the manga. He's usually making funny remarks in his mind ;
