CHAPTER 10

Fuuko found herself on a wide lawn. The night was calm and peaceful, only small sounds of jumping crickets were heard. The moon shone in a bright light, making the whole scene around her lovely and romantic. She turned around her and observed that she was leaning on a big Sakura tree. She gathered herself up and dusted her thighs, noticing that she was still on her lavender pajamas. "That's weird," she thought. "How come I'm not on my bed?" she asked herself.

Her eyes wandered at her surrounding and thought that the place was familiar. Her mind snapped and she looked in awe at the enormous building in front of her. "Mikagami's mansion? What am I doing here?"

She went near the mansion's giant door and gave it an average knock. No one answered. "I wonder what time is it…" she asked and brought her face down to look at her wrist. She was not wearing her watch and remembered that she took it off before going to bed. She didn't bother knocking again thinking that all of them might be sleeping so she decided to walk around the house silently. "A tour in this manor wouldn't hurt much. I'm not feeling sleepy anyway."

The ground was warm against her bare feet but the night wind seemed to contrast with the land. It was somewhat colder than the other nights. She sauntered against the coldness of the atmosphere and was unknowingly brought to Mifuyu's curtilage. She breathed the blooming petals of the flowers she passed by and surprisingly felt herself warm and relax.

Seeing the marble table and chairs at the center of the garden, Fuuko invited herself on one of the white chairs and sat on it sedately. Not too far behind the table was a quiet fountain Fuuko always admired everytime she eats lunch with the whole Mikagami. The big mermaid statue at the top of it was always eyecatching. Mifuyu said that Tokiya sculpted it as a final project in his art class when he was in Tokyo University.

She sighed and attempted to close her eyes for a short nap when she heard something. There were some things behind the fountain. Like someone was talking and whispering. "Ghost?" she asked herself.

She silently sneaked out from her sitting position and hid behind the bushes around the fountain. She's not someone to be afraid of ghosts if they really existed. She was actually curious about them. "Oh boy, this is really going to be a crazy adventure if I ever see one," Fuuko smirked and continued approaching the back of the fountain, careful not to let herself get sensed from the bushes.

She mutely crawled under the short branches of the bushes, making sure that she will see something outside. She first saw a woman's shoes, particularly the heels. Behind it was unmistakably a man's shoes and knew that the whispers came from people and not ghosts. Her eyes searched for the continuation of the feet and looked up to be greeted with a long sunset-colored hair. It was covering the lady's face so Fuuko shifted her gaze on the man face to face with the woman. His face was more visible from her view. Silver hair, broad torso, perfectly shaped face…light blue…eyes, TOKIYA?! She gasped and quickly covered her mouth with her palms. "What is he doing here?!" she asked herself in astonishment.

"It's been six months since we last saw each other," she heard Tokiya talked to the woman.

"Yea, I honestly missed you a lot," the woman answered.

Tokiya smiled. "As well do I." His face drew nearer to the woman and Fuuko watched with eagerness as Tokiya's lips parted deliciously at the woman with no face (since she cant see her).

"He's going to kiss her…" she whispered and felt a tap on her shoulder. "Wait, don't disturb me," she said and pulled the hand away from her shoulder. She noticed it was cold and ….frozen. Her eyes grew wider. She slowly twisted her neck behind her and was shocked to see that the hand was as white as flour. Blood came flowing from its wrist and she tilted her face up to see the most horrible face she ever saw.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhh"

----------------------TOFUU-----------------------

"AAAAaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhHHHHHHHH!" Fuuko shouted her lungs out and brought herself seated on her bed with eyes fully shut close.

A running Ganko flung her door open with a worried look on her face. "What's wrong, Oneechan?!" she hurried towards Fuuko and shook her big sister's shoulders wildly. "Are you alright?"

Fuuko looked at her for a long moment and slowly nodded. She was still panting and sweating, making her little sister worry more.

"What's wrong?" Ganko asked again.

Fuuko was hesitant to tell. "Just uh…just a nightmare,"

"Are you sure?"

"Yea,"

"Are you fine?"

Fuuko nodded. "Nothing to worry about, Ganko."

"You look pale," Ganko commented, still concerned.

Fuuko smiled. "I'm alright," she ruffled Ganko's hair and took a deep breath.

"What did u dream about?"

Fuuko stared at her pensively, remembering the dream she had last night. Tokiya and that woman.

"It's been six months since we last saw each other," she heard Tokiya talked to the woman.

"Yea, I honestly missed you a lot," the woman answered.

Tokiya smiled. "As well do I." His face drew nearer to the woman and Fuuko watched with eagerness as Tokiya's lips parted deliciously at the woman with no face.

"Monsters." Fuuko answered. "Kissing monsters," she added.

Ganko put on a sour face and acted vomiting. "Eww, no wonder you woke up shouting,"

"Yea," Fuuko chuckled at her younger sister's face. "So what's for breakfast?"

"Mom's special omelet!" Ganko beamed.

"Really?"

"Hai!" the young blonde cheered.

Fuuko got up and put her house slippers on. She looked at Ganko with a cunning face. "Omelet marathon?" she smirked, challenging her sister.

Ganko stood up and glanced directly to the doorknob before eyeing her big sister. It's been eight years since they last had this little morning game. "I'm gonna beat you this time," she said and dashed out.

"You wish," Fuuko replied before running after Ganko.

They both scrambled towards downstairs with Fuuko on the lead. She reached the kitchen entrance first but was stunned on her ground after seeing her smiling boyfriend's face on the breakfast table. "Koishi?!" she gasped.

Raiha answered her with a wider smile. "Hi," he greeted.

Ganko passed by her and was on the table swiftly. "I won! Wohhhhooooo I finally won!" she shouted and had a good poke on the head by Fuuko.

"I reached the kitchen first," Fuuko said.

"What? Hey…you know the rules! Who comes to the table first, wins!" Ganko grudgingly replied.

"I was surprised to see Raiha!" Fuuko exclaimed and pointed Raiha with her pouting lips.

"It wasn't my fault you were swooned by your boyfriend's beauty!" Ganko grinned and glimpsed at Raiha. "Right, Oniisan?"

Raiha just smiled and chuckled at Fuuko.

Fuuko sighed in defeat and placed herself settled beside Raiha. Mrs. Kirisawa served them their omelets and coffee. "Thanks, mom," Fuuko smiled at her mother.

"You need to eat a lot before you go to work, sweetie," her mom answered and positioned herself and her breakfast at the center side of the rectangular table. "Raiha-chan, are you going to bring Fuuko to the Mikagami today?"

Raiha nodded.

"You can bring my car if you want, dear," Mrs. Kirisawa smiled at him.

"Thank you for the offer, Kirisawa-san, but I have a car on my own," Raiha smiled.

-----------------------TOFUU------------------------

Raiha drove Fuuko to the mansion using the car he rented at the hotel he's staying. They both unloaded out from the vehicle to bid their goodbyes.

"Here's your jacket. In case it snows," Raiha took Fuuko's hand and placed a mint jacket on it. Reluctantly, he reached for his girlfriend's face and pressed his right palm on its softness.

"What's the matter?" Fuuko questioned him with a slight concern on her face. He was incredibly silent the whole morning when they left after breakfast. It's not like he was not silent and reserved, it's just that, he was more silent than the usual. Fuuko wanted to confront him since earlier, but she thought it would be better to wait for his action first.

Raiha looked at her deeply. And Fuuko knew he was somewhat disturbed by something.

"Don't leave me," he simply stated.

Fuuko's eyes slightly widened and she tried finding the best thing to say. She moved her eyeballs down as though searching the answer and looked up again as she said, "What makes you think I will do that?"

She didn't receive a reply as Raiha closed his eyes and compressed his body against her in a tight embrace. Fuuko gasped and stared at the blue morning sky, stunned. What's wrong with him? She asked herself in panic.

"Is there something bothering you?" she managed to ask and tardily brought her arms on his back, slowly making an up-and-down motion like a mother to her baby. His indigo locks were soft against her dorsa and she pushed her cheek on her collar bone.

"No. Nothing. Just…just don't leave me…" Raiha said, sniffing the lavender scent of her hair.

"Are you sure you're alright?"

"Hai," he whispered and hugged Fuuko tighter. "I love you, Fuuko,"

"I…I love you too,"

Tokiya cast his bedroom curtain close and stormed naked towards his bathroom, his feet stamping heavily on the marble floor as each step. He shut his bathroom door hard and faced the sink mirror with burrowed eyebrows.

His light grey hair cascaded down his naked back magnificently and he stared at his external features in the clear mirror.

You're an idiot, Tokiya. His fists clenching and unclenching. "Do you hear that? You're an idiot! You are hopeless!" he shouted in a volume only he can hear and in a second, his fist blasted the mirror and broke it into crystal fragments. His knuckle bled and he closed his eyes, concentrating on the pain on his fist. And another pain on his chest.

He cant even stand a minute looking at them like that. Him with her. Him locked up against her body. Him and him alone. It hurts. It hurts like hell and he's feeling so helplessly shit right now.

He stared at his swollen fist, numb from the amount of loss blood. He placed it under the faucet and winced as he allowed the running water touch the wound.

Fuck you, Kirisawa. How dare you do this to me? How dare you…

-----------------------------TOFUU------------------------------

Fuuko was greeted by the whole Mikagami at their breakfast table when a maid told her where Mikagami-sama was. Her patient was seated at the center of the table with a bowl of macaroni soup in front of him.

Mifuyu and her family were happily eating their meal, all of them were lined up on Mikagami-sama's side. She was surprised to see Tokiya across Mifuyu on his chair along with Kaiya beside him. She noticed there was another person beside Kaiya. She looks matured but very pretty. She had her long hair, perfectly the same shade as Kaiya's, flowing vibrantly on her back and shoulders.

Fuuko tried remembering the familiar woman but was cut off by Kaiya's loud call.

"FUUKO-NEECHAN!" she swiftly brought her small body down her chair and jumped at Fuuko as usual.

Fuuko caught her and smiled. "You're Ojiisan's gonna scold you again for running like that," she whispered and Kaiya giggled.

"Kaiya!" they heard Mrs. Mikagami's call and both grinned at each other. "How many times do I have to tell you that---"

"I know, I know grandma, I know that. I was just excited to see Fuuko again!" she moved out from Fuuko's embrace and went to kiss her grandma on the cheek. Mrs. Mikagami was seated beside Tokiya and near her husband.

"Kaiya, you should not forget your table manners now that were inside the mansion. That is very disrespectful of you," Shijo stated after drinking his milk in one gulp. He took his napkin and carefully wiped his mouth.

Kaiya giggled and said, "Sorry, oniisan,"

Kaiya went back to her chair and the others look at Fuuko with their warm morning smiles. Fuuko sweatdropped.

"Come and join us, Fuuko-chan," Mifuyu invited.

Fuuko smiled at Mifuyu and bowed courteously. "I had breakfast at home, Mifuyu-san. I guess I'll pass for now and prepare Mikagami-sama's medicine,"

"Aww. Now, come on, dear. I'm as strong as a cow. Why don't you even sit with us and meet our guest," Mikagami-sama shook his finger on her and gestured at the orange-haired woman.

Fuuko stared at her once more. The woman smiled back at her, showing her perfectly shaped teeth. She bowed slightly at the woman and sat near Mifuyu.

"Ohayou, Fuuko-chan," Katsuo and Shijo greeted her in unison.

"Ohayou gozaimasu," she replied. She was offered a hot mocha drink by Mifuyu-san and she sipped in gingerly, her eyeballs moving uncomfortably at Tokiya who was seated across her by the moment.

"Let me have the honor to introduce our guest," Mrs. Mikagami started. "Fuuko, this is Neon Kitajima, a long-time family friend," She gestured her hand from Fuuko to Neon. "Neon, this is Fuuko, my husband's private nurse," her introduction ended.

"Oh, you have a very beautiful nurse, Mikagami-sama," Neon exclaimed at the older man. Mr. Mikagami answered her with a fond nod. Neon looked at Fuuko and stood up, reaching a hand for across the table.

Fuuko cautiously shook it and plastered a forced smile on her features.

"It's nice meeting you, Fuuko-san,"

Fuuko was suspicious about her but she cant help but admire her peaceful façade. She seems fine and friendly.

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Neon-san," she retorted, ending their handshake. Both of them settled back on their respective chairs when Fuuko heard Kaiya said something.

"Mom, can you give me more sausage?" her small childish voice rang through Fuuko's ears like a bomb.

Fuuko quickly glanced at Kaiya and Neon with round bewildered eyes. Mom?

Neon extended her arms to get the sausage and brought it on Kaiya's plate. Kaiya grinned at her and brought her face to Fuuko. "Fuuko-neechan, can you give me that bowl of rice near you, please?"

Fuuko snapped her thoughts and awkwardly delivered the plate to Kaiya. "Err, here,"

"Thanks!" Kaiya smiled radiantly.

"She's my ex-wife," Fuuko heard Tokiya stated.

Fuuko stared at him in amused expression. Was he smiling? "Oh, I see. That's why she looked like Kaiya," she answered softly.

"I thought Kaiya look more like Toki-chan," Neon chuckled.

"Kaiya got your hair," Fuuko's curt reply.

"I do?" Kaiya stared at her with her cute big blue eyes.

"Hai," Fuuko nodded.

The others don't seem to mind their small talk and were busy eating their own breakfasts. Shijo and his father were silently talking as well as Mikagami-sama and his wife.

"Where are you staying, Neon?" Tokiya asked.

"At our house,"

"But I thought your family moved to London, Neon-chan," MIfuyu voice joined in.

"Well, our house is still there," Neon answered.

Fuuko was intently listening at their conversation while silently drinking her mocha latte.

"You can stay here if you want. In that way you will be near Kaiya, and…well, me as well," Tokiya said, his eyes never leaving his ex-wife.

Neon looked at him with slightly wide eyes and smiled fondly. "You changed," she remarked.

Tokiya gave her the warmest smile Fuuko had ever seen. She had to bit her lower lip discreetly in order to prevent her jaw from dropping.

"I just missed you a lot," Tokiya casually said.

Neon chuckled. "As well do I, Toki-chan,"

Neon...No wonder she looks familiar, Fuuko thought. She was the woman in her dream…Kissing Tokiya.

"Would you want to go out today?" Tokiya offered

"Where?" Neon asked.

"Everywhere you like. Just a small family reunion," Tokiya answered.

"Sure," Neon responded and looked down at her daughter who hasn't been minding her parents' talk since earlier. "She is still into food, but it's good that you didn't make her so fat," Neon commented and looked back at her ex-husband.

Tokiya laughed softly. "You have no idea how hard it is to prevent her baby fats from emerging,"

Neon laughed as well. "It's good to see you back Toki--"

Someone's phone rang and the noise in the dining room ceased. Everyone looked at Fuuko and the nurse sweatdropped with the immediate attention she was given. Her mobile rang continuously from her purse and she answered it after leaving the table for awhile.

She came back with an excited face and went near her patient.

"Mikagami-sama, can I take a half a day off today?" her eyes pleading.

Mikagami-sama looked at her in question but nodded. "Of course, Fuuko. But why?"

Fuuko blushed. "My fiancé invited me to go out for lunch. I hope you don't mind," she lowered her head, trying to hide her flushed face.

"I see. Sure, you can go child," the old man nodded in understanding.

Tokiya glared at his plate and then to Fuuko who doesn't seem to mind him as she went back to her seat. He rolled his eyes and munched his mushroom rather out of manner.

She's not the Fuuko I knew. Fuuko never blushed immediately. She's the abnormal Fuuko now. And very abnormal she now is indeed.
