"Only in Movies? Fake Love?"
Narration:
Kahoko glanced warily at Aoi, the blonde whom she chose to go with instead of her heart's love Len. Aoi, her best friend for a long time now but, never considered him more than that. "Aoi-kun-"
"Do you truly love him?" he interjected not removing his gaze in the road and gripping on the steering wheel.
She hesitated.
"Tell me the truth and I won't object. For now." He spat.
Kahoko stared at her lap. "Yes,"
"Since when? Why don't I know?" he snapped.
There's a long moments of silence. They are parked at the parking lot of their Filming's Building. Neither of them wants to get out nor speak anymore.
"Kahoko," he growled.
She sighed and answered, "I realized I love him for few days from now." She barely herad herself but, he did surely hear her.
"And are you two in a relationship?" he demanded.
Kahoko trembled. "Not really. We just confessed to each other but, he's still somewhat confused. I was asking him about that inside the room when you came. He's smiling…but, it vanished." She said.
Finally, Aoi's eyes drifted to Kahoko's sober expression. "Are you accusing me for ruining the moment?"
Kahoko's patience snapped. "Why are you interrogating me anyway? You are my best friend and I expected that you'll support me but, it is the opposite. Len's opening up for me but then, you dragged me away from him—" he cut her off again.
"Who chose to chase me?"
She froze. It was me.
"I didn't persuade you to chase me. I just ran away." He reminded.
You made your choice. Her conscience whispered.
"Speechless? Why? Because I am right?" he demanded. His other side going out from inside of him.
She clenched her teeth. "Shut it. Start the engine." She ordered.
His older and humorous side came back in a flash. "What? Why?"
She glared up at the golden-head lad. "I want to go back to Len and apologize for running away without saying a little explanation to him." She spat with venom at her tone.
Aoi was about to oppose when he saw the sincerity, anxiety and…love at her eyes. She is sincere about apologizing at Len. She is anxious if ever he'll accept the explanation she has. And she loves him truly by turning back just to be with him again.
He exhaled and started the engine and drove to the hospital.
-o-O-o-O-o-
They arrived at the hospital almost 20 minutes after the trip because of the traffic jam on the street near the hospital.
Kahoko, after the car was parked, she went out eventually and ran to Len's room.
Let he be still there.
Let he still be there.
I hope he'll accept my apology.
Give me a chance.
Still love me.
Give me a part at his broken heart.
She almost tumbled at the stairs but, never cared and continued at his room. She knocked hurriedly and it opened. She was glad but, got confused when it was a registered nurse who opened it. "Yes? How may I help you, Miss?"
Kahoko, as offered, came inside the room and it's empty. No more patients. The dextrose was removed. The bed sheet is properly settled and blanket folded into few layers. All white. But,
He already left…?
"Miss?" The nurse prompted.
"Where is the patient here? The lad named Len Tsukimori?" she gasped.
"Oh, they just left several minutes ago."
She raised one eyebrow. "They?"
The nurse nodded. "Tsukimori Len checked out with a visitor. They look kind of…close and unclose. I don't know. The girl is blonde." She informed. "You are the one always staying with him right?"
Hit!
Kahoko nodded. "Yes,"
"He looked kind of down and depressed when he left and said that if ever a crimson-head lass came back, I should give her a letter he made. " she quoted and handed a folded paper to Kahoko. "My work's done. I should go. Thank you."
Kahoko hide the letter. "Thank you," she whispered and walked to Aoi's car. He didn't dare to speak as she went inside the passenger's seat.
"So?"
"He already left."
"Ah,"
She glared. "Happy? Your plan worked for us to apart."
Aoi shook his head. "If it'll make you unhappy then, consider is as unaccomplished mission."
That only made Kahoko feel worse and it feels like the letter in her bag weighs 10 times than it really does.
-o-O-o-O-o-
Len went back home and like expected his parents are there. He just passed by them as he went to his room and changed his clothes.
He stared at himself. Kahoko has never been mine.
She belonged to another world. To the world with normal lives.
He threw himself at his bed and shut his eyes as memories flashed back. Kahoko seeing Aoi running away, She standing up. Len trying to stop her since he knows Aoi is trying to break them apart but, she looks at him in disgust for stopping her. Len, released her and said the words, "You make your choice," she didn't even listen and ran after Aoi without looking back at Len.
Miyaji Natsume came in the scene. Much worse. Miyaji is Len's only childhood friend and –though, he lied and said he forgot this- he promised her to be her groom when they grow up. She plays the violin just like him and very understanding.
Like Kahoko, she knows how to comfort him and cane make him open up and allow them to know who he really is.
But, why now? Now that he found out what love and being loved is—he needs to be left alone again.
What kind of fate do I have?
-o-O-o-O-o-
The next day, Kira-kun confirmed that they'll have a taping for another scene today. They should meet at "Imperial Building" second floor, Room 2 at exactly 9:30 am.
They'll meet there and head to their destination afterwards.
At about 9:20, Kira-kun announced that they'll have a new member since Mori was needed by her parents abroad. Kahoko came about 9:25, that's why she is unaware about this.
"Is Tsukimori-kun coming today?" Shimizu asked sleepily.
Kahoko blinked. "I-I don't know."
"Why don't you know? I thought you are staying with him at the hospital?" Yunoki asked.
"T-there was an errand I needed to do yesterday and without biding farewell, I left him and when I came back, I found out that he already went home." She lied.
Aoi's amazed with her story. How quick she made such tale.
After awhile, Kahoko is trying to forget about Len and it's having an effect since, she convinced herself he won't come until—
The door opened and Kahoko looked around seeing no one missing from their group. She was astonished to see Len going inside their taping room. "Am I already late?" he asked coldly as he gazed at her.
Ryoutaro answered. "No. We were just starting." He said with wonder in his voice.
"Is the new actress with you, Tsukimori?" Kira-kun asked as he approached him.
New actress? Kahoko asked herself confusedly. Then, in a flash, a girl with short blonde hair jumped into Len's back. "I am here." She said enthusiastically as she hugged Len from behind. Len just sighed.
Seeing this ripped Kahoko's heart apart… You make your choice.
I made my choice and I regretted it. Now, what did I miss?
Len exhaled and pointed at the girl behind him. "Here she is. Alive and jumping at other's back which almost broke my spine." Len said it seriously but, everyone laughed anyway.
Miyaji grinned at Len and stepped in front. "I am Miyaji Natsume. I am 17 years old. I came from Canada since we are living there for awhile. I asked my parents to stay here for year with Tsukimoris' and they agreed." She introduced with sparkling aquamarine eyes.
Kanazawa-kun nodded. "Is Len Tsukimori related to you?" he asked.
She smiled and glanced at Len. He is currently reading the scripts and paying no attention or maybe pretending not paying attention at all.
"Maybe he doesn't consider it. But, I treat him as my fiancé."
Kahoko's heart thumped loud as her eyes widened. There were gasps from her friends with her –Miyaji's- boldness.
"Wow, you are straight-forward," Ousaki muttered.
Miyaji just grinned at him.
Len's eyes were stocked on the same page and it means that he was affected by Miyaji's sudden outburst.
Kahoko is sitting few meters far from Len and she can't help but, to be disturbed with what Miyaji said in front earlier. She glanced at him while, the others are preparing and his eyes turned at her as it captured and hold her eyes' gaze for a little while. Kahoko suddenly remembered the letter he had left for her.
Dear Kahoko,
You left and I know you will come back after realizing what I mean with the words—"You make your choice." It's true. YOU make your own choice but, I'll always consider them if it'll make you HAPPY. I never found who I really am until I met you. Yet, earlier, your heart chose to chase after Kaji and that made me convinced that I never deserved to be loved by a lass as good as you. Forgive me for my coldness and troubling you for these few days. I owe you and I will pay my gratitude when I'll see the opportunity to do so.
Sincerely Yours,
Len Tsukimori
They held each other's gaze until, Len broke it and stood up as he instructed Miyaji what to do. Miyaji, enthusiastically nodded. She noticed Kahoko staring at them and dragged Len away from Kaho as she glared at the crimson-head.
She mouthed, "He's mine."
A/N: Ok, I hope this things, at least gave some answers for your questions. BTW, not because Miyaji came, Kahoko is not for Len—remember, I am only doing conflicts to make the story much interesting.
I hope you enjoyed and liked this chapter update.
Sorry for any mistakes I've made.
PLEASE REVIEW AND I'LL UPDATE AGAIN. SOON.
FYI, I never forgot that this story revolves at their film and this taping will continue at the next chapter. REVIEW!
Sneak Peek:
"At this scene, Hino and Tsukimori will meet at the park as Hino mourn at how Kaji cheated at her." Kira instructed.
They both nodded and as they walked at their places, Kahoko tumbled over a stone and almost fell down when Len grabbed her arm and pulled her into his chest.
They both landed on the ground, sitting as Kahoko got into his chest and froze. She looked up and gasped to see Len staring back at her. "Len?"
"Are you alright?" he asked concernly.
She nodded and Len took that as a yes. He stood up and about to let Kahoko stand up by herself when she took a hold of his shirt and dragged him back. "Len, don't ignore me anymore. I'm sorry." She whispered which made him froze.
