How I'm glad it's Sunday! No school! No homework. And I don't have to go to work until four more hours. Can this day get any better? While I have this time for myself, I might as well go do what all girls do best. Shopping! I need to get myself guy clothes just in case of anything. I looked inside my closet, mountains of clothes were piled on the floor while other were clinging onto the hanger. What to wear? There was a beautiful purple blouse, that will do. I grabbed a pair of jeans, what else? Eh. I closed the door and stared at mirror. My face looked horrible getting that stupid cut when I saved that meanie Blondie. I opened a small pink jewelry box, there wasn't much. I barely wore it anyway. I took out a golden necklace with a heart attached to the chain. There was a pair small, hooped, purple earrings so I decided to use those too.
My eyes wander around the room, I looked under my bed and reached out a pair of purple high heeled boots. After so many years of having them, they always looked so new and they fit perfectly. Guess I really do have small feet. My hair was fine the way it was; loose. I grabbed a small silver purse from by coat hanger and walked down the stairs. That's the only thing I couldn't stand about these high heeled shoes, they were so frustrating to go downstairs.
When I locked my door, I dashed to the bus stop. Paying my fair and taking a seat near the window, I just stared outside. It wasn't a long trip, the bus stopped and I was the last one to get off. I arrived at the mall; first time I actually came here! I squealed in delight, taking a few steps forward to enter the main gate. Like, damn. It's huge! Where to start? Actually, first the food court. I didn't get to eat breakfast. I took the elevator to the third floor. It was crowded but since my body is so slender, it's not a problem. The elevator reached it's stop and the people took their time getting out. I felt like drooling, I'm in heaven.
The food court was so big. But they were all so pricey. I came across a small shop who were selling. I waited few minutes but they placed my food on the tray: Fries with melted cheese, freshly made. Scrambled eggs, toast with a butter, and lastly. Two bacon strips. As a refreshment: green tea. I took my tray and sat in a single rounded table. It was actually lucky to find somewhere to eat so quickly. In no time I finished the toast, eggs, and bacon strips. I was half done with my fries and was still hungry. Yeah, I have a big appetite. The fry was two inches away from my mouth. Want to know why I froze? Blondie was looking right at me. Shit! He was coming closer. He cannot know I'm here! He cannot. I grabbed my purse and ran downstairs while leaving wasted food on the table. I only took one big gulp from my tea for crying out loud!
"Hey, wait!"
I ran into a men's store, grabbing a random pair of pants, shirt, book bag, and shoes with white socks. Before I went into the fitting room, I mentally counted all the of the price in the items I got the money, gave it to the guy sitting by the counter and gave an extra ten so he wouldn't bug me. I slammed closed the fitting room door. I ripped out the price tags of them all. My earrings, necklace, purse, and shoes were shoved into the book bag. Good thing the shirt I got was so long that my chest wasn't noticeable. The shirt was loose, the collar was blue while the whole shirt was blue, in the middle was a single yellow strip. I put a pair of black jeans. Oh, I needed a belt but I refuse to waste any more money. Then I slipped into the socks and put on the white shoes. I looked, guy-ish. I took a deep breath in and exit out of the small room. Before I knew it, Blondie rammed into me. I was about to fall but since I was standing there stiff, I was fine. Blondie? He just fell.
"Watch it! Oh. It's you." I told him, pretending that I haven't seen him at all. He brushed his golden locks away from his eyes. At first he just gave me a cold glare; then, he looked shocked. He quickly regained balance and stood, closing into my face.
Whoa. Dude, get away from me!
"How did you get that cut? There was this girl I know who got in the same place. She actually looks like yo--"
I slapped his hand away from my face, "Don't touch me. And for your information, I got this by. . .by. . ." Shoot. What should I say?
"By. . .?"
"My desk-yeah, my desk! I was trying to reach out for something on the floor but one of the corner cut my cheek. Anyway, I gotta go now. Heh, see ya!"
I thought I was safe, I thought I could escape. To get away from Blondie and not see him again until tomorrow. Sadly, that's just a fantasy. His hand grabbed my fragile arm-to tight! To tight! Damn, how strong is he? When I finally looked back at him, I was shocked. And I mean it, I was shocked. Was he blushing? Are my eyes deceiving me? He let go of my arm and I clutched it near my chest. What does he want with me? Why wouldn't he let go of me? Sigh, I want some clues and I want them now. I opened my mouth to say something, but he beat me to it.
"Hey, are you doing anything really important?" Blondie asked, he sound as though he was hesitating to say something like that.
This would be a good chance to find out why he hates me or why he acts so embarrassed when he's around me. I could decline and go home, yet, this might be a life time opportunity. I couldn't waste it.
"No." Was my response; plain and simple. Straight to the point.
He seemed to brighten up. How fishy. "Well, my cousin is doing this stupid costume party. Not many are coming, so, I was wondering. Want to come? That is, if your really not that busy."
A party? Well, it would be my first one ever in this town, "Uh. Sure."
"Cool, here's the invitation." He held out a little white card, around it's border were pictures of balloons. On the front it even said 'Costume party.' On the back was directions and a little picture of what his cousin's house looked like. Huge. It was seriously huge. Before I got to thank him, Blondie was no longer there. Well, time to buy a costume! Good thing this party won't be long. I can make it just in time for work.
.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.
Holy. Shit.
My mouth was wide open-he said only few people were coming! Like, my lord, this is about half of the whole school! It was full. How is this a few! I fixed my black hat-oh. Wanna know what is my costume? Is the only one I could think of in a short amount of time. I was the mafia. I wore a long sleeved black shirt, yep, I even had the suit. The suit was normal looking, not the business type though. It was a black suit, thin white strips running throughout. Lastly, a pair of black shoes. I'll tell you one thing, I make a really cool looking mafioso. The rest of the people around me where also wearing costumes, at least it wasn't a prank.
Now to find him. Eww, I can't believe I have to find him. I squeezed my way out of the crowd which was hard because they were all scrunched together. A guy pushed me but I didn't fight back. He got me out, that's what counts! Some people were taking a break by sitting on the chairs provided. Others just shoved me aside to get some punch or some snacks. Rude. Whatever. I took a blue cup and poured the juice. I took a sip. Not bad. Before I got to take another sip, someone grabbed my arm and pushed me to a wall.
A girl whom I did not know. She was wearing one of those mask that covered the eyes; her costume was a slutty nurse suit. She came closer to my face, "Hey there. Wanna go somewhere private?"
Ewwy le' hell. Some girl is flirting with me, "Um. I have to be somewhere. Mind letting me go?"
"No way. Your my kind of guy."
Okay, this is just nasty. And I'm a girl. Not a guy. A girl. "I have to be somewhere. Now if you don't mind--" I was so close into escaping but she held onto me tighter.
"Oh, but, I do mind." She was coming closer to my lips. I don't want my first kiss to be with a girl! That's just. . .wrong! In every way!
"Let go of him."
"Oh, Kazune-kun. Um. Um." She jumped away from me, "He was trying to persuade me to go to a private room with him!"
That. . .that. . .that. . .SLUT! I NEVER SAID ANYTHING LIKE THAT!
"Oh, is that so. Then I'll personally deal with him my self." Blondie grabbed my arm again and dragged me to the second floor where you can watch everyone dancing, plus, it was sorta quieter. What do I say? What should I say? That slut might of been one of his girlfriends. I titled my head to the side. He was just laughing.
"You looked so innocent! That was so funny."
"Huh?"
"I know you didn't do anything. No need to worry. Glad you were able to come."
"Yeah."
We leaned on the railing of the floor. Watching silently from above, just look at all these cheery faces. That's when I noticed his costume, it was mix of a vampire and death god. How unique. He looked at me and smiled. He look so cute. Gosh, get a hold of yourself, Karin! He's an enemy. Remember that he poured mop water on you! He's a jerk, nothing more, nothing less. Yeah. I'm going to hold that grudge and I don't care! I'm that childish!
"Kazune-chan!"
I looked at a girl coming right near us, she wasn't wearing costume, unless those monkey pajamas were her costume. She looked so cute and huggable! Who was she though? "Umm. . ."
"Oh, this is my cousin, Himeka."
"Nice to meet you, uh--" She said.
"Ran."
"Ran-kun."
I smiled at the girl, she was so the opposite of him. She seemed so much nicer and polite. Just as she left, I felt some one or something pounce on my back. Brown hair locks. It was that other guy that never tortured me! I looked back at Blondie, to see if he was plotting something. Instead, he was sighing. "What is it?" Blondie asked so coldly.
"Nothing. I just wanted to make sure your not harassing the poor guy here."
"Idiot! Like I'll ever do that!"
Um. Anytime this guy can get off of me? I'm getting a backache. I tried to push him up but I wasn't strong enough. Damn these scrawny arms of mine! Soon, my back felt less light weighted and I can actually stand up still. I couldn't get a good image of the brown haired guy because of the dim lighting but I saw him creeping along Blondie's shoulder. He was smiling, evilly. What was he planning to do?
The brunette pushed Blondie and he quickly ran down the stairs. Next thing I knew, Blondie was right on top of me. I was too shocked to be embarrassed; too shock to move; too shock to talk. The bright light shined on us and yet no one noticed the two of us and our position. Blondie was blushing intensely, his face was like a cherry. Anytime you want to get off?
"S-sorry!" He jumped off me and left. I looked at my watch under my sleeve, it read '3:48.' Shit. I have to get to work. I left this place, left the party, left this embarrassment.

"Rin-chan! I'm sorry I'm late!"
"Karin. I tried to call you over and over again but the shop is closed today. By the way, what's with the strange get up?"
Rin was my boss, she was a very nice person and a kind friend. She always acted strict around her other employees except me! Aren't I special? "It was a party. Don't ask."
"I see. See you later, Karin-chan!"
.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.x.
"No, my love, don't go!"
"Hikari, it does not have to be this way! We can make this relationship become stronger!"
"Allen, we have to face reality. In the future we might be eating synthetic food. Who knows, they might come up with synthetic boobs, too."
"The pickle is dancing. Break it down Mr. Pickles! Oh yeah! Mr. Rubber Chicken wants to join too! Come on kids, follow these easy dance steps!"
Everything was so sappy and stupid on TV. Everything that I just heard came from the television. There was nothing to watch; nothing to do. I wasn't in the mood to go on the computer or read. It was already five. It would be great to have a visitor.
Ding dong!
Speak of the devil. Wait, maybe it's Blondie and his friends. Oh well, I was wearing black pj's. I looked normal and boyish at the same type. "Coming!" I opened and the door and expected the worse. It was the brown haired. Annoying. I was about to close the door but he just walked in. I eyed him, what makes him think he can go in so easily? This isn't his house. I wonder what he's actually here for. I saw him walking up the stairs. He doesn't plan to. . .
"Wait a minute!"
The brown haired teen went inside my room, when I stormed in, he was just sitting on my beanbag chair with a stupid smile.
"Why are you here?"
"So, why are you pretending to be a guy?"
He discovered me that fast? HOW! Play dumb, Karin. Play dumb! "What can you possibly be talking about?"
"It's obvious. You look exactly like a girl and I noticed when I first saw you. No need to pretend."
"What proof?"
The brunette chuckled and he pointed at his chest. What the? I looked down at my chest and noticed nothing. Until I saw one two buttons open. I flushed into embarrassment. He also pointed at my wastebasket, there was few dirty clothes and bras. . .I'm discovered. I can't cover this any longer.
"I needed to find an education system where I can learn and not have to pay. Please, do not tell. I beg of you."
"Who ever said I was going to rat you out? I was just interested, that's it."
Oh thank goodness. I thought I was a goner. As much as I wanted to kick him out now, it was be just simply rude. We started talking and talking without noticing how much time went by. We laughed. I can't believe such a nice guy like him hangs out with Jin and Blondie. I'm just glad I was actually making a guy best friend; my very first one here. I felt like I can tell him anything, I do not know why, I just felt like I can.
By the time I looked at my electronic clock, it was already eleven o' clock. Time flies when your having fun with someone. Micchi, the nickname I gave him, has actually decided to move in with me. No, I'm dead serious. He brought out his luggage that was outside. It was really sudden, but I was happy.
I'm no longer living alone. It's like having a sibling. A happy feeling filled my heart. Not love. Just happiness.
"Night, Hanazono-san."
"Night, Micchi. Micchi?"
"Yes?"
"GET THE HELL OUT OF MY BED!"
"Aww, come on, let's cuddle!"
"Yeah right."
