Chapter 4 : Questions & Answers

Part 1

Misaki stood still for a moment, she couldn't believe her eyes…'Usui is here!'….She ran out of her room without wasting a second and skipped three stairs at a time..She rushed to open the front , she feared that when she'd open the door, there'd be absolutely no one …but…she again was wrong….he was there-bright as sunshine. Misaki could feel the hot blood flushing her cheeks and she halted at the door. Usui was only a few feet away from her but she suddenly felt her limbs get heavy, she couldn't move forward though she wanted to. She wanted to touch him a little,to know if he was really there or maybe she was just hallucinating.

Usui waited for a few second and then walked forward. He stood before Misaki who looked bewildered and was blushing to death. This was one of her cutest expressions that made Usui want to want her even more. He came very close to Misaki and whispered in her ears –'Won't you tell me to go inside? I wonder if it's safe for us to talk under the open sky like this.' Misaki's ears also turned red this time like her cheeks. She quickly retreated from the door and made way for Usui to enter the house. Usui came into the house and said, 'Ayuzawa never showed me her room.'

Misaki understood that Usui wanted to talk about something important to her in a private environment and she herself also had a ton to ask. So, she decided not to argue and went upstairs to her room.

Usui looked around the small room which was the empire of his princess. But he couldn't compliment the surroundings for a while longer as Misaki started talking as soon as she had gotten over her shock.

'So, you're talking to me again? Really, lately I thought I could understand you a little. You just proved me wrong.'

Usui looked at Misaki with clear softness in his eyes. His eyes were meaningful and they held meaning more than thousands of words could as if he wanted her to trust him without asking any questions. He said in a very low tone-'I really need to tell you something and that's why I'm here.' He again dipped his face in her hair and breathed a few lines only—'No matter what, stay away from THAT brother of mine. You don't know how he is or how he can be. Please take care of yourself, you look awful after losing so much weight. And don't worry about me- I'll surely return to you the way you want me 'cause…I still have those words to hear from you, don't I?' Saying this, Usui again gave her a meaningful look as if he had so much more to tell her but something was stopping him from doing so. He didn't waste any more time and walked out of there. Within seconds he was gone. There was not a single proof that he had been there even a minute ago except his departing words still echoing in Misaki's ears.

Misaki sat at her table with a book open before her eyes but she wasn't reading a word of it. She was lost in her own thoughts. 'I wanted to ask him so many things! Yet I couldn't. He just came and a moment later he was gone. But, probably not asking anything was the right thing to do. His eyes looked as if he wanted me to trust his actions and save the questions for later. Still, I'm anxious….I'm anxious for him. Now I know for sure that THAT guy is obviously behind the scene and he's pushing Usui to his limits…I wonder why that guy's doing so….They're brothers! Yeah..I know,they have different fathers..but…there are a lot of people like that who get along pretty well. I bet there's something more to it and I just don't know a thing of all this!...And why did he tell me to stay away from his brother? As if I want to stay close to that guy! Argh…this is giving me headache!' Misaki looked at the clock and she couldn't believe how late it was. So she quickly went to bed. Otherwise she'd obviously over-sleep…Even in her dreams..she could hear only one voice and that beautiful voice said-" I'll surely return to you the way you want me 'cause…I still have those words to hear from you, don't I?''

Part 2

Usui entered into his apartment and received a WARM welcome.

'I thought you were a good learner and a sharp person. But you proved me wrong. Didn't I make my point clear when we last talked?... Is staying away from that girl so tough for you? Or maybe you don't care whether anything happens to her or not?',Gerald said in a cold voice.

'You can take it the way you like.',Usui's voice was calm.

Gerald gritted his teeth and said,'Wanna be brave,huh?'

Usui looked directly in his eyes and said,'I said you could take it the way you like. After all,you're taking MY LIFE the way you like..and not only that…'..Usu didn't finish his words.

'What do you mean?',Gerald said.

Usui didn't say anything and walked away from there. Unlike their last conversation, this time it was Gerald who was left perplexed….'What is that Takumi thinking?'

'Ceddie!',Gerald called his right hand man and within a flash that guy stood before him.

'Yes,master!',Cedric asked.

'Keep close eyes on Takumi. I know that he hasn't heard anything but somehow he looks more firm and determined now. I want answers..I want to know what the source of his huge mental power is. That guy really amazes me sometimes. Even yesterday, he did what I intended him to do. He ignored that girl, but today he went to her house! Yeah, you said that you only saw him coming out of the house….I wonder what he did there.'

'Master, maybe you shouldn't stress yourself so much. The lecture that you gave him that day, made him quite anxious, I assure you. I was watching him the whole day in the school and also that girl. But he didn't even talk properly with that girl- what he said made the girl very sad and you know that very well as I'd told you the whole thing. Maybe he went to settle things with that girl as you told him to do.', Gerald said.

'Hmm..you've got a point. After all Takumi seems upset. But he's so calm. I didn't expect that. Oh well, leave it for now. If he ended things with that girl, that'll only help us, nothing more.', saying this Gerald went to the room where he passed nights when he was in Usui's apartment.

Usui was in his room but he had heard the whole thing…'It's good that they don't suspect me for knowing anything. But I need to start acting too. I need to find answers to my questions as well. And I know just what to do.' Usui couldn't believe himself, even after all these, he wore a smile on his face.
