"Yes?" Kira raised his eyebrows as he heard her sentence. Inside, he didn't like the girl much, as she was heading towards the Chairman's room, which absolutely meant she was one of Athrun's fan girls… Well, he didn't know he had just missed something, very important…
"Uh, no, I'm sorry, I've mistaken you with someone I know, my apologize." The girl replied politely, but her indigo eyes were still remaining widened, for she hadn't recovered from her shock yet. He looked so much like that one, the one she had always dreamt about, the one she had always tried to find in the entire world, him!
Flashback…
"Take this, Lux-san, it will remind you about me even when I'm not with you." The brown haired boy gave a pink haired young mistress a purple ribbon, which matched his amethyst eyes. There were tears in his eyes as he knew she was going to leave him to move to another city. Though he didn't want to cry, his tears just kept on forming, and they were threatening to fall down at anytime.
"Uhm, thank you…Kira, I will always miss you…" She sobbed out loud as he handed her the ribbon. She took it and kept it to her chest, as if it was her most precious treasure. It was too painful for her to bear. They had known each other for what? Over three years or more, yet she had to leave him. They had been really good friends, and though he didn't like fighting, he still tried his best to protect her from any harmful thing, such as being bullied by other kids, she was like a little sister to him, no, even more than a sister, she was.
"Kira, I have to go now, please don't forget me, if we have the chance, I'll go and look for you when I grow up…" She sniffed softly, wiping her tears away. With all the might left, she forced out a bitter smile and nodded at the brown haired.
"I won't, Lux-san… I promise I will marry you when we grow up, I promise…" And with that he gave her a peck on the cheek which immediately brought heat to the two's small faces. The two ten-year-olds bid good bye to each other, and she ran down the hill, slowly disappeared in front of his eyes.
End of flashback…
"Okay, I have to go now, see you then!" His voice woke her up from her memories, and she got startled by the sudden pain that poked at her chest the moment she heard his voice. For the first time she had heard him, she was still in an angry and shocked state that she couldn't recognize his voice, but she could now. It was familiar, very familiar, but she wasn't so sure whether he was really her childhood friend or not, so she only kept quiet.
"Hey, are you alright? You look pale…" His concerned voice once again woke her up, as she got startled for the second time of the day. Drawing in a deep breath, she smiled:
"Yes, I'm fine, thank you sir. I should get going too, so, uh, I hope to see you again."
"Right, good bye!" He returned her smile, turned around and walked away quickly.
Kira's point of view…
Crap! There you go again Kira Yamato, there's no need to act stupidly like that in front of a girl, or are you just not crazy enough, eh? Curse this stupid heart of mine; I'm not going to have a peaceful day anyway… But why does she look so familiar? I think I have known her, hmm? And she doesn't look like Athrun's fan girl at all, the way she speaks is just too polite, I can't imagine his fan girl being elegant like that... There must be something wrong here…
End of Kira's point of view.
"Miss Clyne, what took you so long?" Just as she took her first step into the room, the same cold voice rang up, sending a shiver down her spine. Yeah right, the chairman was the most handsome of the handsome, that was an inevitable truth, somehow, staying by his side just made her heart beat like hell, and she felt really uncomfortable. And in addition, his over-confident smirk always made her blush hard, which was definitely not good for a secretary if her boss discovered it.
"I am sorry, sir…" She answered indistinctly and bent down, rushed back to her table in an amazing pace. Seeing that, the handsome blue-black haired man just smirked, again.
CHAPTER 2: DISCOVERIES
"Hey Cagalli!" Kira suddenly called out loud, turning to his secretary, who was at the same time his dear twin sister, "Do you have any important business tonight?"
"Nope, why?" She stopped doing whatever she was doing and jerked her head up, "Are you up to something?"
"Actually, yes. Do you want to come and have dinner with me tonight? There will be this friend of mine who will join us."
"Oh, that… Err, I'm not so sure, but I'll try to come. Anyway, is there anything special tonight that you want to give me a treat like this, bro?" The blonde asked mockingly, narrowing her eyes. Yes, for someone who was as stingy as her brother, he would never invite her to have dinner unless there was something he wanted her to help, taking an innocent girl for him for example. But hey, her brother was not that perverted and evil, he was just a little shy to hook up with any girl; that was all!
"It's nothing, I just want you and him to meet, maybe you two can get along, plus I have promised to introduce you to him, so this is the time to keep my words, eh? I have always forgotten that… By the way, sis, aren't you too old to have a boy friend?" The over-intelligent man retorted as he made a face. Too bad, there was still one thing that he wasn't intelligent enough to predict…
Bonk! Something hit his poor head at full impact.
"I really should get an adopted sister rather than this violent girl…"
Bonk! Bonk! Bonk!
"…"
In the evening…
"Hey Kira!" The blonde greeted loudly as she entered her brother's million dollars apartment. It was as luxurious as a millionaire's house, ahem, maybe… even more. Well, he himself was a millionaire, one of the richest millionaires, speaking about the matter of fact. Again, it was just that he was too tight-fisted to buy a real house for himself, and maybe also for his wife in the future. Wonder when that mama-boy would get his real girl friend.
"Hey!" Her dearest brother replied, grinning widely, "Come on in, he's already in waiting for you!"
"Who?" Cagalli found it pretty clueless as she completely forgot about Kira's best friend, who he had just mentioned in the morning.
"Don't you remember? He's my best friend Athrun!" Kira, upon hearing that, pouted obviously, but he didn't bother to be angry. He had known his own sister for too long, long enough to know that she could never remember anything unless they were extremely important.
"Ah, sorry, it kinda slipped off my mind, so where's he?" She slapped her forehead and smiled apologetically, then walked directly into the living room where she found a certain blue haired. The sight of him caught her off-guard, and of course, the result was shown in no time: she slipped at the threshold with a loud 'thud'. Hearing the strange sound, the man turned back promptly just to have his jaw hung open.
"You are… Kira's secretary?"
"Uh huh, my sister also, haven't I told you about that?" Luckily, Kira came in on time to answer the question for Cagalli while scratching his head clumsily.
"Chairman Zala?" At the same time, the blonde was crawling up; eyes still remained as big as the saucers, fixing on the man, "Why are you here?"
"Don't you know? Oh that's right; I haven't introduced you two yet. Erm, Cagalli, this is the chairman of our corp. and my best friend Athrun Zala. Athrun, this is my secretary and my twin sister Cagalli Yula Athha, we have different surnames because our parents got divorce when we were young, and I got the surname of my mother." Kira, as always, butt in with a speech as he secretly eyed the two's reactions in amusement.
"How come you have never mentioned that?" The two turned to Kira with bullet shaped eyes and hollered in unison. Realizing that, they turned away immediately, feeling rather embarrassed. But before Kira could say anything to tease them, he had already received a slipper thrown by his sister on his face.
"You two really know how to stand up for each other, huh?" Rubbing the cheek which now had the trace of the slipper on it, he somehow managed to tease the two for the last time, before…
"For saying something as daring as that, you deserve to eat this!" As she shoved the other one left of her slippers into his opening mouth; and at the time a stiff fist from his so-called best friend landed perfectly on what was once his pride: the precious nose of Kira Yamato. That was it; the main character of ours ended up losing his consciousness darling with a slipper in his mouth and a trace of slipper with a fist mark on it! Right punishment for the talkative…
"So Zala, you and Kira have been friends for over fifteen years? That's really a long time, huh?" Cagalli asked as she put the last piece of dessert into her mouth in a slow motion, "That's strange Kira has never told me about it!"
"Uh huh, I have never heard about you, too, only recently he told me about you, and I really didn't know you were his secretary also…" Athrun replied while tapping his chin thoughtfully. It looked like the two were trying to pay the brown haired man back, which was what they were obviously doing.
"Okay, come on you guys, stop blaming me as if I'm an extremely guilty criminal like that; I just wanted to create some surprise for you two, alright?" Finally, not being able to stand the hidden mockeries anymore, Kira exploded with frustration, just right when…
RIIING!
His cell phone started to ring, "Excuse me for a minute!" and with that he stormed out, destroying whatever was unfortunately in his way.
"Hello, Kira Yamato."
"Kira! I'm so glad to hear your voice again, it's been a long time, yes?" On the other line, a sweet female voice echoed, "Are you doing well?"
"Fllay?" Overwhelmed by shock and surprise, the brown haired man asked back disbelievingly. That was right, never before had he imagine he would have to talk to her again. The frightful girl, his frightful fiancée to be exact.
"You still remember me? Oh you make me so happy, well, ah…" He could hear her squealing in delightedness as he inched the cell away from his poor ear, "Stop it, Sai! Sorry Kira, I just want to inform you about my visit tomorrow. At five in the afternoon, okay? See you, muawh!" After making such a disgusting sound from her full lips, the girl hung up.
"Sai? She still goes out with him, eh?" He muttered angrily. Yes, he didn't want her to be his fiancée, definitely not, but as she was already his fiancée and still, she went out with another guy just made his blood boil, "Dammit!"
"Ara, pardon me…" At that moment, a sing-song voice rang up; cutting his string of curses, or else maybe many more colorful words would be explored by the I-am-the-kindest guy.
"Yes, how may I help you? You! I mean… Miss…" As he looked up, his eyes immediately met a pair of crystal blue ones, and in no time, he realize who the owners of those was.
"Ara, you are…?" Nearly at that very moment, the girl recognized him, with the proof that her eyes were becoming as big as they could, "You live here, sir?"
"Yes, I live next door to this apartment. And what are you doing here, miss… Erm… May I know your name?"
"It's Lacus. I see it, so you are living next door to me… Hmm, by the way, I'm very glad that we can meet again." She answered him with her excellent smile which brought him heat, a great amount of heat in particular. "I know I have known this name but I don't remember the one I have known is who… That's strange though…"
"I can call you by your name?" He asked back, not believing in his ears, no was no way this elegant lady would be as friendly and free minded as that.
"Uh huh…" Realizing her boldness, the girl simply turned away a bit to hide her blushing face, "I guess…"
"So… Erm… I should as well acknowledge myself shouldn't I? My name is…" Just as he was opening his mouth to tell her his beautiful name, a damnable ring interrupted.
RIIING!
"Pardon me, miss. Hello?" As he eyed the pinked haired woman with the most apologetic look he could make.
"I'm so sorry Kira, but again, they said that it will be about seven, so… Yeah, just call back to tell you that. Did I ruin any moment?" The same sluttish voice echoed, continued to send shiver followed by shiver down his entire body. Cursing under his breath, he tried to reply with the politest tone he could fake out:
"I don't mind it, really, and anytime would be okay for me…"
"Really? Thanks a lot, Kira, I love you!" And with that she cut the line. Sighing, the irritatated man turned back to the pink haired who was patiently waiting for him.
"So?" Seeing that he had finished his phone call, she smiled again.
"So?" Not being able to catch what she meant, he repeated, bewildered, "Oh, I remember, I was introducing myself to you, right? Okay, my name is…"
RIIING!
For the third time, a cell rang up. It was her cell then.
"God dammit!" Practically swearing in his steaming head, he clenched his fists, as if he was going to give someone a punch or two.
"Hello? Yes, I promise tomorrow I'll go there, don't worry. Oh, you mean that place? Now… That's too far, and you see, now that I have just got a job… I'm afraid I'm not going to make it one time, so… If that's the case, alright, I'll be presented, good night, sir." She was happily talking on the phone while her newly made companion just paced around impatiently.
"I'm extremely sorry for being rude, sir, but I really have to go now. Can we meet some times later, sir?" Closing her freaking cell, the girl spun to him and abruptly bowed her head. Then, not waiting for his reply, she completely forgot about going back into her apartment, instead turning around and ran off the stairs in front of his widening eyes. Dumbfounded, again.
"What's with my name, then?" Kicking the wall and leaving some shoe prints on it, Kira slovenly dragged his feet back to his door, where his two 'enemies' were chatting in great excitement.
"So how's that new secretary of yours?" He heard his sister asking in her laughter. It was pretty rare that someone could make her, Cagalli, the cold and fierce one, laugh as freely as that.
"More of a diva than a secretary if you ask me…" And he heard his best friend answered, in between strings of laughter, too. The last thing you would expect to see in the world of human beings…
"Isn't it a freaky day?"
To be continued.
A/N: I was trying my best to make the story a little longer, but well, it just seemed impossible to do, don't you think? And in my desperate attempts to make it a bit funny, I eventually turned it into this stupid kind. But hey, at least I tried my best. Please review for me, so I'll have the might to continue writing, thank you very much.
