CHAPTER 2: DAMN THIS FEELING
"I don't wanna think I'm gonna lose her someday. She have been always there for me, and I wanna be there for her just the same. She's the kind of person I could never afford to lose, not now, not ever. So I just chose where I know our relationship will last longer. And that's to be her friend, for now." I heard him said. I feel pity for him and at the same time hurt. Hurt because I know. I'm not the lucky woman.
"You're a coward." I said plainly. Trying to hide the hurt I'm feeling.
"I know." He said casually.
"You're too selfless." I said again in the same tone.
"I know." He repeated.
"You're-" but before I can finished what I supposed to say he cut me off.
"leaving." He said. With a crook smile. And proceed to walk out the gate.
"eh?" I said confused. Than adrenaline rush took me I grab his arm and flood him questions. "when? Where? Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why?" I said panicking tears forming my eyes. He was shocked at first then later on he burst into laughter. And pointed somewhere. I follow where his finger pointing and reddened due to embarrassment... I realize that I misunderstood when he said leaving. Parking there one of the Hyuuga car waiting for him. I chuckled to my stupidity and bowed my head due to embarrassment.
"ah.. bye. Hehehe.." I muttered very low and scratch my head. He patted my head, chuckled again a little, and left.
And now, here I am reminiscing what happened that day. It has been 3 weeks since the incident with the slut. In addition, it also has been 2 weeks since he started not to be late. I mean our routine to go class late. I don't know but I have a pretty bad feeling with this. Especially when the valentines day is coming.
"Idiot."
Speaking of Valentines. A week to go and it's already Valentines day…
"Mikan."
Moreover, I still don't have any gifts to give yet. I don't have any ideas also. What if I give-
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!
"WHAT THE HELL?" I shouted. Standing.
" I've been calling you for 30 seconds and you still daydreaming." I heard Hotaru said.
"Oh," is my simply reply. And yet again.
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!
"What did I did this time?" I said. While rubbing my forehead.
"You do know I don't accept "oh" as an answer." Hotaru said in a freaky voice. I sweat dropped. This is Hotaru Imai indeed.
"Well, I'm just thinking of gifts for valentines." Which is true. I do think of gifts in the last seconds of my peaceful thought.
"I want to buy coffee. Come with me at the School Café." Hotaru said raising her baka gun.
"Isn't there any classes?" I said unsure of the question.
BAKA! BAKA! BAKA!
"There's No classes Baka. It's a free day. All teachers are in meeting. SO you're coming or not?"
"Sure. Sure." I'll come even if she don't give me threats. And I'm just asking! Anyway, This is Hotaru Imai, everyone knew she's my bestfriend. From worst and best times. Hahaha.
School Café:
"Broad coffee. Venti Size. To go." Hotaru said icily.
"That's 75 rabbits." The barista said. Hotaru gave the exact value and sitted to one of the chairs. While waiting for Hotaru's coffee, I excused myself to buy some Fluff puffs across the school café. And when I entered, I should wish I didn't went to that place at the first place. Inside the candy store, sitting one of the tables, is Natsume and a girl whom I don't know, cuddling to each other. I felt like crying.
At first I tried to ignore Natsume and went to the cashier with straight face. Praying to God repeatedly that Natsume won't notice me. But luck is not at my side. He saw me when I paid the fluff puffs and called me. I turned my head stiffly and smile awkwardly to him. He gave me a come here sign. At first I hesitated but gave up when he stand up and grab to their table.
"So Mikan, this is Riana. Riana, Mikan." He said while pointing the two of us. I waved to this Riana girl same goes for her. Then I ask the obvious, "Is she your Girl?" Natsume smiled and nodded. I just stared. Then he spoke. " Riana, Mikan is Ruka's cousin. And you do know Ruka is my bestfriend right? That's why she's very close to me." Then he shuffled my hair until it turns to a bird nest. I forgot my insecurities when he did that and kick he's knee and glared at him. The glaring competition begun but when I heard a silvery but charming laugh, I stopped glaring at him.. I looked at Riana.
"It's nothing. Hahaha.. It's just that you're like kids. No wonder Natsume likes you to be her little sister. Ahaha" Little sister, huh? I smiled sadly. I must escape as soon as possible. Got it.
"Uhmmm.. Natsume?"
"hn."
"I need to go. Hotaru is waiting for me at the school café. SO if you won't mind. I'll excuse myself now." I smiled to Riana. " Nice meeting you." And turn my heels around. I nudged Natsume at the stomach and whispered. "No Public display Affection. Pervert." Natsume chuckled. Then after that I leave the shop completely. With my heart shattered to pieces.
"What took you so long?" Hotaru asked.
"Uhmmm.. I saw Natsume and uhmmm.. Riana."
"Who is Riana?"
"Uhmm.. ano.. Natsume's.. uhmmm.. gu.. girl." I stuttered. Hotaru narrowed her eyes.
"Pardon?" she hissed.
"I said. NATSUME'S GIRL" emphasizing Natsume and girl.
"That idiot." And by that Hotaru Turned around and started to go back to the main building. I just stared at her retreating figure. I looked at the clouds. So I'm just his little sister huh? How great it is to be a substitute to Aoi, to his sister. A tear escaped my left eye. That woke me up to my trance.
I stared at Hotaru which is now a building is a gap from where I stand. I shouted. "Wait!" She stopped. And I run to her side. To my surprise when I catch up to her. She hugged me tightly. And said. "Let it out idiot." With those words. I cried. I asked Hotaru.
"Why do we sob fall for sob someone who sob isn't really sob for us? Should we sob blame ourselves sob for falling sob with the sob wrong one? sob Or should sob we blame sob the one sob we fell sob in love sob cause he sob made sob us feel sob that they're sob the sob right one? Sob Why does sob it hurts? sob" I sobbed.
"I don't know how to answer you, Mikan. You are the only one who know the answer. Just remember this, when two hearts are meant to be, no matter how long it takes, no matter how far they go, no matter how tough it seems. Fate will bring them together, to share a life forever."
"It still hurts! It hurts! I don't want to feel this! Damn this feeling." I cried.
