Yo Yo Yo what's up? Lol. Such awhile since I've submitted a chapter. Please Enjoy!
Chapter 3: Pudding
I awoke to the sound of the door bell ringing over and over. Ding Dong Ding Dong. "ARAGGH." I walked towards the door being annoyed for the first time since I came to this island. "I'm coming! I'm coming just stop ringing the door bell!" Once I finished saying that. The door bell stopped ringing.
As I opened the door I'm greeted by a man with blue hair wearing a blue bandana. "Hey Akari! I'm here with your stuff!" Ugh, that smile of his is too bright especially at this time of day. Which is about 6am in the morning.
"Your smile is so bright! It burns my eyes!" He looked at me. And started to laugh like crazy. "What?"
"Did you look at yourself in the mirror this morning?" I shook my head. He gasped for air, "Your hair is a mess and.. Really cupcake pajamas? Geez it's weird, you don't act like most girls here."
I looked down on my, gave a quick blush and glared up at him. "Don't judge me! I love sweets, ok? I also have a musical note pajamas, too." I stuck my tongue at him.
"I never said it was a bad thing to look like that Akari."
"Whatever, Luke. I'm proud to be weird!" I gave my most confident look in the history of history. We both started laughing our butts off. I thought that we'd never stop at one point. We did though, Chase broke in while we were laughing.
"What are you two, idiots laughing about over there?" He took one look at me and cracked a smile on his face. I gave a light blush, I don't really like how Chase is smiling like that… It's a little freaky.
"C'mon Chase don't be like that now!" Luke said as he patted Chase's back. "We were just having some fun!"
"Besides that point." I broke into Chase and Luke's conversation. "What are you doing here Chase?" Luke looked at me and smiled.
"Chase here asked me if he could help me help you today." Chase looked to the left and didn't say anything.
"I only asked because Maya was pestering me at work yesterday. I really don't want to take a chance of reliving that day again."
"What about work Chase?" I looked at him all confused.
"I asked Kathy to tell her father that I'm taking the day off today. Don't worry about it." He gave me a smile.
"O-okay. Thanks you two I really appreciate your help for today. Come in you two." They both nodded and came in.
"Akari, go fix yourself up and Chase and I will start unpacking." I nodded and went in the bathroom to change my clothes.
As I came back I found Chase and Luke done unpacking. "Wow did I really take that long in the bathroom to change?" They both shook their head.
'Two people works better and faster than one you know." I nodded in agreement to that.
"Alright let's start putting things in place shall we?"
"Let's!" Luke said with such great enthusiasm.
"Yeah, let's." Chase followed Luke's enthusiasm with a monotone voice.
We started to start putting things in it's place. It took awhile but we made it just before lunch time. Chase decided to make us lunch for the day and we happily agreed to it. Chase made octopus shaped hotdogs and rolled-eggs for lunch. "Uwah! This reminds me of my childhood!" I told Chase with a voice filled with enjoyment. I took a bite out of the hotdog and the rolled-eggs. "It's delicious!"
"Thanks Akari." He gave a little blush when he said that.. Hehe, Chase can be cute sometimes. Maybe he is one of those tsunderes? Maybe.
After the lunch break Luke insisted that he'd help me with some of my farm work. Chase wanted to help to which was pretty shocking really. It was great that I got some extra help from them though. Everyone really is nice here it touches my heart. I just came here and they are welcoming me like I have been here for a long time. By the time we finished the farm work it was already 3pm.
"Thanks a lot you guys! You two were a really big help today!" I gave Luke a big hug to say thanks. I looked at Chase, "Can I hug you too?" Chase looked to the side and spread his arms wide. "Yay!" I gave Chase a big hug to thank him. "Can I make you guys something?"
"Oh no, you don't have to do that, Akari." Luke said patting my shoulder.
"Don't worry. I just want to express my gratitude to you guys." I gave both Chase and Luke a smile. They both nodded at me. "Yay! Alright just sit tight on the sofa and read some of my books if you want." I walked over to the kitchen and started making my pudding.
It took awhile for me to finish the pudding but it wasn't that long that they would become impatient. "Alright you guys I'm done!" As I walked towards them I saw that Luke was reading some of my manga and Chase was reading a cook book. "Chase, really? Reading a cook book?"
"Don't judge me, Akari. I'd like to know more recipes as much as I can, y'know?" I let out a sigh and went back to the kitchen. I came back with two plates with pudding on them.
"Here you go you two." They both looked at my pudding with a weird stare. "What?" There was a silence in the room.
Chase's P.O.V.
That pudding… Why the heck is it ORANGE? Why would she feed us this? Is it filled with poison? I poked it with a spoon on my plate. I looked over to Luke and he took a spoon full of pudding and shoved it in his mouth… I can't believe it he actually ate that weird thing. Wait. Hold on a second. Did he just smile?
I looked at the pudding again and then I heard Luke say, "This is D-E-L-I-C-O-U-S!" Well it doesn't seem to be poisoned since he is still alive right now…. I guess I might as well just try it. I took a piece of the pudding and took a bite out of it… What taste is this? Orange? It's delicious. How did she get the idea to put the taste of orange in this pudding? More importantly how did she put the orange in this?
"Hey. Akari why would you put orange in the pudding? It is good though. Wait how did you put the taste of orange in this?" I questioned her.
"Well you see.." She gave a little blush before continuing. "I had this childhood friend who's favorite fruit is orange. Since it was hard to bake cakes when I was small, I decided to make pudding. It wasn't at all good when I first made it. And regarding to how I put the orange in the pudding, well that's a secret."
"Cute story Akari." Luke said to Akari. She gave a slight blush.
"I haven't seen him in the long time though. When I was ten he suddenly had to move away. I really liked him… You can say that he was my first love." She gave a deeper blush. "I promised him that I'd make my orange pudding taste perfect, I've been wanting to meet him ever since he left."
"I'd love to hear more Akari, but I have to get going. I still have to help a little around the shop."
Akari's P.O.V.
"Alright Luke!" I said as I followed Luke towards the door. I gave him a wave good-bye and with that it was just Chase and me left in my house alone….
"So.. I guess I'll clean up.."
"Oh no, Chase I'll clean up. You're a guest at this house I won't let you clean up." He rolled his eyes at me and sighed.
"Please let me hel-" DING DONG Who could that be? "I'll get the door instead." I gave him a nod and left.
I grabbed all the used plates and headed for the kitchen. I started to clean the plates. I gave out a sigh. "What a day. I got to unpack all my stuff and still got some farm work done. Well, it's all thanks to Luke and Chase.
"GAHHHHH!" Huh? Chase?
"Akari!" Who's voice was that? It sounded very familiar. "Akari!" Who is it?
"Chase?" I ran out of the kitchen towards the door. I saw someone who I wasn't expecting… I ran up to the person. A person with brown hair just like mine. He had Chase in an arm lock.
"Why are you in my sister's home?" Sister? No way this person can't be him, I haven't seen him in such a long time! I grabbed his shoulder and made him turn around
"Big brother? What are you doing here?"
