Midori-chan: Here's the continuation… I hope there won't be any mistakes again...

"I saw her at the live concert. She was in the front row." said Ren.

"Um, miss… huh?" Takumi asked to Hachi but she wasn't there anymore. Takumi and Ren didn't notice Hachi had already gone.

"Hmm… you seem to remember her. Love at first sight? Come on tell me!" Takumi faced back to Ren.

"Hey, why are you now curious about it? Wouldn't affect Trapnest if I had a woman?" answered Ren in his usual tone.

"If it's love, you can't help it. I will just make sure you do it carefully. The Paparazzi should not find out your love life." Ren looking at Takumi with a 'very unusual' on his face.

"Ren, go chase her! She's out of sight but you might be able to catch up her."

"No need. She's the vocalist in Black Stones. The band Yasu created. I can meet her anytime I want" switching his sight back to Tokyo Bay, thinking about Nana's feelings just seeing her action just a while ago. "Takumi, you don't need to worry about Paparazzi. Nana doesn't want to see me anymore."

A few meters away… The presence of the bay didn't change; Nana and Hachi is still in Tokyo Bay…

"Whoa! Hachiko, these sweets looks good!" Nana was staring at the cakes at a cake and pastry shop beside the Tokyo Bay. The shop also had about 7 sets of coffee tables. The smooth breeze blew and some tree leave fell. It would be the best place in Tokyo for country people except in Tokyo, stars does not shine; as always, covered behind the dust clouds revealing the reality of the city life.

"Wow! They all look good! Let's take home some for dessert!" At that time, I completely forgot about Ren. The cake was delicious that I want to come back next time for another one. Is this the Demon King's wrath? Hah! Then it was a good dream then but when I looked at the sign of Takumi, it was not a dream. It's real. I can't just believe it.

June 13, 2000

After my office works are done, I invited Nana again to go buy again the cakes from the shop we went last week. Nana agreed without a word. We went to the shop about 5:30 p.m. neither Takumi nor Ren was their. It's just a coincidence. A commoner seeing a superstar in the same place twice would be impossible. Walking the same path of the park beside the Tokyo Bay, I suddenly remembered Ren mentioning "…but to tell the truth, I know her." I asked Nana.

A smooth breeze from the bay swept Hachi's strands of hair, "Nee Nana, last week I heard Ren saying he met you. He was beside Takumi. Maybe he remembers you from the concert! Isn't cool! Saying that superstars can't remember everybody because there so many of them but remembering one of them means there's something special about you."

"Ha! ha! You think it's cool? I don't find Ren remembering me would be cool. It's normal since I knew him long time ago." The overwhelmed I was shocked now. Never knew Nana met Ren so long ago. She knowing me a Trapnest fan didn't say anything about Ren. Why?

"Why didn't you stop then and greeted him? It's like your avoiding him since I saw you walking faster. Why?"

Arriving at the cake shop, "It's going to be terrible if I talk to him. I don't want to hear his foolish stories. I would just feel stupid, you know. Ah, this cake looks good. I would take this one!" Nana started to order a slice of cake and I still stuck on the window to choose which cake I'm going to eat.

Just a minute or so, "Hachiko, you seems to be in a good mood. Hah! Met a new guy?" Nana was teasing me again.

"No! All of the guys in work were old and fat but that waiter in the restaurant looks cute… eh? What am I saying?" I got my mind out and said without conscious.

"As I thought, I hope you could find a new boyfriend. You seem to be lifeless without a boyfriend." Nana pulled out her black wallet to pay the cake she ordered.

"Well, why not you find your own boyfriend? I think you and Ren is good match! I can imagine it. I also noticed that you two almost have the same style." Nana stopped. I didn't know how Nana felt when I mentioned Ren.

"Stop minding somebody else's life! You're really a noisy dog, Hachi!" I really felt that I stopped wagging my exited tail.

Then, I saw a similar person… standing by Tokyo Bay. I couldn't believe seeing Ren twice is impossible. Why Ren is here again and this time he's not heavily dressed just like last week. Nana didn't mind anything; she just went on. I pulled Nana's shirt to stop her. Nana said,

"What's the matter Hachi? Does something smell?"

Ren quickly faced towards Nana. I kept my hand grabbed on Nana's shirt and I said in a small voice, "It's Ren. He's here again"

Nana faced Ren, she didn't had a face of "ah, hello!" or "long time no see!" but she just gave a "what the hell do you want" face. Now I see is that there's something between them. I can clearly see Ren's face with the face "I'm here".

Nana just waved at him and went on to the studio. I felt really sad for Ren. Why is Nana so cold-hearted?

Midori-chan: Well, end of this chapter. Do you think this is the Demon King's evil scheme? Haha! I'm the Demon King in this story!
