Disowning La Corda D'oro

Chapter 5

Kahoko's POV

"Ne Kaho-chan…" Hihara-senpai whispered.

I looked around my surroundings; we were in a deserted classroom, "Hihara-senpai?"

"Why do you hate me so much?" he said in low voice, and his eyes not looking into mine.

I stepped forward, "Hihara-senpai, what are you talking about?" I asked.

No answer.

"Hihara-senpai!" I shook his shoulders.

He looked at me, his face like nothing I had ever seen before. It was dark and pitiful.

"Admit it," his voice was full of hatred, "Admit it, you DO hate me. If not, then why…"

"Why, what?" I asked, his voice and eyes were starting to scare me, I dropped my hands because it started trembling.

His head whipped around, facing the other direction, "Then tell me you like me, right now, tell me you like me more than just a friend." He turned around and faced me.

I backed away, shock coursing through my entire system, "Hihara-senpai…I- I…"

"See, do you see?" he asked, walking toward me, I kept backing away, my brain told me that this was a dangerous moment, so I just kept backing away till I felt the wall against me, "You hate me, you just don't want to admit it because you're scared to hurt your 'friend's' feelings. It's disgusting Kahoko."

I slid down my back, "That's not true…" I said, I brought my hands to my ears, "That's not true, I don't believe you!"

"Just because you're so obsessed with Tsukimori, you don't even think about the people who actually sees you as…you!" he said, continuing.

"Stop it!"

"Why don't you tell him, he won't care a single bit. Then you'll be able to appreciate us."

"Stop it Hihara-senpai! Stop!"

"Kahoko, what's wrong, Kaho!"

I immediately sat up straight, my sudden movement causing my head to collide with my sister's.

I felt delirious, my head shaking, "No way…" tears were spilling down, "No way…"

My sister grabbed my face in her hands, "Kahoko, stop it. It's fine, you're awake now. It's all right."

After a few moments, I was able to calm down. My sister now forced me to really tell her what in the world was going on, and she wouldn't take no for an answer. So I told her everything that happened today, up until my dream.

"So…do you think I really like Tsukimori-kun?" I said, my lips quivering.

She smiled slyly, "I don't know. What do you think?"

I hugged my knees, "I'm not so sure of myself either…"

She stood up, "Not to worry! You'll find out, and I'll bet you'll realize it before the concert…unless you're THAT stupid." She muttered.

"Hey!" I said, getting up. I glanced at my watch, "Oh, it's time."

My sister grinned, "Start investigating for your feelings!" she said, pushing me toward the door, and handing me my violin.

"Have a nice afternoon sis!"

I groaned, I racked my brain for directions of Tsukimori-kun's house. How would I know? I've never even been there.

I went back to my house and pounded on the door, "Sis open the door!"

"No way." she shouted, "Run along now dearie, don't make him wait." she cooed.

"B-but I don't know where his house is!"

"Your instincts can guide you. May God bless you on the way."

"Sis, let me in!"

"His house should be a part of you, you'll find it easily! Trust me!"

"You're one to talk!" I said.

"Don't make me open this door." she said, I could feel her glares burning the door.

I gulped, "Yes, I'll be going now..." I backed away.

As I turned my back, I saw someone frozen like a statue behind me, glaring. So this must be the glaring aura I felt.

Tsukimori-kun shook his head, "I'll pretend I didn't see or hear that. Let's go." He muttered.

I tilted my head. 1...2...3...!!! What did he just say??? Does that mean he saw and HEARD everything?

He was already a few meters away when he turned around to see if I was following him, which I wasn't doing.

"Come on already." he said in his usual tone.

I shivered and trailed behind him.

We were walking silently toward his house. No one dared to talk and my head was in the clouds.

We reached his house, his majestic, over-sized house. I gaped and shut my mouth immediately. He opened the door, "Come in."

I walked inside his house and stared at every inch, it was beautiful! "You have such a nice house Tsukimori-kun!" I wondered aloud.

He lifted an eyebrow, "Thanks." he said.

He showed me the directions toward the music room and I just followed him.

I gently lowered my violin and he motioned for me to sit down. I gladly complied.

He walked toward a desk which was stacked with music sheets, "So where should we start?"

I went rigid, "Anything that I can play?" I said meekly.

He sighed, "Ave Maria." he oped his violin case and positioned himself. When I didn't move, he shot a glare at me.

I got up and positioned my violin as well, I started the melody and he just followed effortlessly.

My mind was halfway concentrated on the music and instincts followed, but I was thinking of my dream and the music suddenly screeched.

"Ah, I'm sorry!" I squeezed my eyes for a verbal slap but nothing came, so I opened my eyes again.

Len's POV

When I heard the screech, I didn't wince and I was gald I didn't. Whne I looked at her, she looked like she was expecting an insult from me so I decided to shut up.

"Let's do that part again." I said and we continued. She has her head in the clouds again.

We finally finished the piece without her awful screeching, I sighed.

"Good, let's try Opus. 50, do you know the piece already?" I asked, trying to 'melt' as they say.

She sweat-dropped, "I tried but it's so hard."

I flipped the piece and played her an example.

She merely gasped.

"Th-that's too hard."

I flipped to the next page and pointed her part, "You'll just be playing for a few seconds, it's not the melody."

She sighed heavily, "Thank God."

I slightly arched my eye brows. This seems unusual...

As soon as we finished trying that piece, I tapped her shoulder, "I'll walk you home."

Kahoko's POV

I just stared at him, Tsukimori-kun actually said that? "I-it's all right, just tell your mother thanks for inviting me for practice. Thanks a lot too." I headed toward the door.

I heard him mutter 'stubborn' and I chuckled. I faced him again, "I know that, geez. You don't have to say it anymore."

He looked surprised, "Oh," he composed his face again, "I insist."

I sighed, "Fine."

He smiled slightly and I unconsciously blushed, this was a rare sight.

We were walking quietly but the atmosphere wasn't very akward, my mind kept on replaying what my sister said, Start investigating yoru feelings, then my mind would see Tsukimori-kun smiling even at the slightest way only.

I raised my head and stared at the clouds while I was walking, it was starting to get dark, even though it wa still in mid-afternoon. It might start to rain.

I felt Tsukimori-kun glancing at me once in a while, until he said, "We should hurry, I think it's going to rain soon."

"Um, y-yeah." I said, we both sped up our walk a little.

About a few minutes more before we reached the house, it started drizzling. "Ah!"

It was a funny sight as I watched Tsukimori-kun speed walking and I was already running to keep up with him.

I hugged my violin case tightly, I'd rather get home drenched than finding out that my violin was wet.

I shrugged off my blazer and wrapped my violin case. I could already see our house and ran for it. "I'm home!" I said, as I opened the door.

I faced Tsukimori-kun, he was standing under the porch. "Come inside." I smiled.

He stared at me for a while and went inside.

Len's POV

I glanced around her house, it was big and comfortable, much expected though.

I could see two look-alikes of Hino, one I would assume as her sister and the other, her mother.

"Good afternoon, I'm Tsukimori Len. Pleased to meet you."

The sister stepped forward, "Hi, I'm Kaho's sister." she smirked and glanced at Hino, "future brother-in-law."

Hino blushed madly and I glared at her sister, "Sis! What are you talking about?"

Her mother clasped her hands and smiled at me, "Don't mind them, they're just kidding around, I'm Kahoko's mother, and I'm also pleased to meet you. Kaho's been talking about you lately..."

Both siblings stopped bickering, her sister grinned at her mother while Hino glared at her.

"You know, she used to always talk about Ryou-kun, but now all she talks about is you and how good you are in playing the violin!" her sister butted in.

I glared at Hino questionably, I better get out of this house...

Please review. I haven't updated this for the longest time and I hope you'll like it. It might not exactly be the best of all, but I did my best in writing this.
