Scene II

In that moment when the sky seems to appear in front of your eyes for the first time, your smile is wide, the cold breeze plays with your thin clothes, but you just don't feel it, that moment when you realize that you are giving a part of yourself to someone else and you know it's for good.

Haruka

I just woke up and I'm feeling more tired then ever, judging from the light coming from my window it's already afternoon, the house is silent and while I tiredly throw myself in the shower I hope that someone storms in my room and stops me from getting ready and going there again for my daily dose of happiness.

The water runs down my slim body and while I watch myself, Michiru's words plays in my mind, do you think she's your friend Haruka, do you think she loves you? …do I? Do I care if she loves me or not? If she's my friend? I'm even to tired to think about it…

I'm searching for my keys and Michiru is some feet away from me, her head down as she tidies up her CD's collection, she's tense, I can see it even if she doesn't face me, I feel the urge to embrace her, instead, with the keys finally in my hand I just say "I'm going out!", she doesn't even turn and I'm taken aback, usually she would have started a big argument at the first good occasion, but there she is, showing me just her trembling tiny back…is she crying?

I don't dare to speak another word for hours, just a little 'hi' when I enter Helen's home, she seems to understand my mood and offers me just what I need, my dose of a white dusty dream of happiness.

As I feel the icy drug spread in my body, my muscles relax and tend at the same time, Michiru's trembling body is the only thing that comes in my mind, that was not enough, doesn't work…I need more, I just serve myself another line from Helen's little silver box, she smiles and come across me "baby, tonight we have a party, you remember it, right?" I simply nod she laughs "My poor baby Haruka, I'm sure I can give you some good healthy fun before the party…" she says while climbing on top of me, I stay motionless, she looks me in the eyes now "Hey…why are you so moody, did lil' sis upset you again?" I just stay in silence…did she? I don't wonna think about it, I just push Helen's lips to mine, here we go again…

It's four in the morning as I walk in my house, I'm fucked, confused, I feel the urge to see her, to get her to take back all the words she said yesterday night, I urge to hear her voice scolding me, I have to feel like my actions have some kind of effect on her.

I walk in her room, darkness is all around, I know she's not asleep, she never is when I'm late at night, is she? She's worried about me, right? I start to panic when I hear the steady rhythm of her breath, when I come close to her, I can clearly see her shaking a bit, she's definitely awake "I want you to take back what you said yesterday night…" I say in an arrogant voice, no answer is given to me, her breath turns faster "I know you're awake!!" I almost yell, why isn't she doing something? "Michiru…" I don't get to finish my sentence, now she's facing me, her eyes are red, her cheeks wet, her expression desperate, I'm shocked, she laughs a bit, it's a sad laugh "What Haruka? I thought you didn't want to talk to me, that I should better bother someone else…what do you want from me now?" her voice is small, I watch her eyes…I'm sorry…but I would never tell her, I don't know what to do and without even realizing it I take her in my arms, she's fighting me, she's crying desperately, she asks me to go away, to leave her alone, I keep my arms closed around her "I don't want you to touch me after you've touched that woman, her scent is all over you, I feel nauseated!!" I don't even listen her, the only thing I feel right is the need of having her near, feel her body against mine, her warm comforting breath as she calms down and relaxes in my chest and tiredly fells asleep, I need to know she's here.

Michiru

I wake up and I find myself cuddled in Haruka's body, her lips are semi-open, I feel a strange feeling inside myself as I lick my lips without even realizing it and my hearth pounds faster every second, she's stunning, her sleeping face is that of an angel, my beautiful Haruka…

I don't wonna wake her up, I know that, the moment she'll open her eyes, everything will start again and I try to enjoy this peaceful atmosphere, that it's so rare, I didn't even remembered that I could actually feel this serene and secure with this woman that's laying beside me.

After almost an hour her teal eyes open and she's looking directly at me, is it fear in her eyes? "I got to go…" she said without even a 'good morning' and looks away from my gaze, her hearth pounds so fast I can feel it on my own chest, her stare is empty, she's looking at nothing, as she tries to stand up I block her grasping her shirt "you should stay in bed Haruka, your hearth is pounding really fast, you should try to relax, I'll make you a camomile…" I put my palm on her cheek, she's sweaty and cold, something is not right, "Haruka…?" no answer, I force her to look at me and the emptiness in her eyes is now replaced with pure anger "Let go of me Michiru…" it's a low dangerous voice, a release my hold on her shirt and just look at her while she stands up and walk away, unable to do something even when I heard the front door closing…
