CHAPTER 4: "Hamai Misa is back"
"Uh… Kahoko?"
"Yes?" not lifting her head and still staring at the keychain.
"You know, you're melting it." Pointing at the violin key chain.
"Na-uh... I can stare at it the whole day as long as I want."
'Okay, fine." He looked away. He saw a large form running to him.
"Len?" a woman in a blue dress ran over to him.
"Mom!" she cupped his face. "Mommy is back. You didn't hurt yourself, did you?"
"Mom, you're being pathetic again." Not looking at his mother.
Kahoko giggled. "Len-san, your mom is just worried about you." Len's mom turned her gaze at the little girl who spoke.
"H-H-Hamai Misa?" her eyes widened recognizing his friend's mother.
"Hi. Are you my son's friend?" she said. Smiling sweetly as always.
"Wow! Len, you didn't told me that the famous Hamai Misa was your mother! No wonder you're so good at the violin! Misa-san, my family is a big fan of ours!"
"Awe… you're so adorable. Send my regards to your family. I'm so glad my Len has found a kind friend." She took a glance at the speechless lad.
"My name is Kahoko Hino."
"Kaho-san, would you like to come with us in our house?" Hamai Misa invited.
Len suddenly snapped out. He heard footsteps coming up the rooftop where he was. It was like a person running. The footsteps became louder and louder until a crimson haired girl went in and slammed the door close. She kept on hold the door knob, preventing the ones following her to get inside the rooftop. She didn't even realize that Len was also there, watching what she was doing.
Her strength gave up. The boys, who were following her, drew their strength to open the door which made Kahoko to 'almost' fell on the ground. Instead, she fell on someone's arms. He glared at them. The two froze in fear. They bowed and said at the same time: "Gomenasai!" and left the two, closing the door behind them.
Kahoko looked up at the one who caught her. Her eyes widened and jumped away. She bowed and said: "Le- I mean… Tsukimori-kun… hontou ni gomenasai!" and ran towards the door.
She paused holding the door knob.
"Um... Tsukimori-kun, sorry for bothering you today. And also… sorry that I mistook you to someone I know very well. It was because you two look really much a like and has the same first name. I'm really sorry for all those troubles. Jaa ne." she smiled at him and left.
Len shook his head. He did admit in himself that he got hurt by her words. But he what he have done and thought he deserved it very well. He did Missed her for 8 years, and this is what it'll turn out.
When he got home, he sensed something that shouldn't be there. He was about to go upstairs when a voice spoke.
"How are you Len?"
What are you doing here?" Len asked in annoyance.
"I just came for a visit." She ignored his rude tone of speaking.
"Is father here too?"
"No. I came alone."
Len turned around and made his way upstairs when; "So, have you found her?" she asked.
"Not yet. And I'm not planning to look for her." He stated and continued walking.
"I believe that she's in your school too. Hino Kahoko-san, was it?" Len paused and looked back at her.
"I don't remember anything and there's no Hino Kahoko at Gakuen Seiso."
"Hm…" Was the only thing she replied and sipped her tea, casually.
The Next Day at School;
"Hey, isn't that Hamai Misa?"
"Yes she is, and she's Tsukimori Len-san's mother."
"Really? Sugoi desu…" the students chattered as Hamai Misa passed the corridor where some students lined up.
She entered a room where all the concours participants are gathered. All of them gaze at her in shock, except for Len who didn't seem to care.
"Hamai Misa?"
She spotted Kahoko and went towards her. She held both of her hands in hers. "It's been a long time" she paused. "Kaho-san." Hearing that, Len got startled and looked up. It almost made him stood up. Kahoko was speechless; she didn't know how to react at a time like this.
"How have you been, Dear?" she asked while all of the other participants just watched, open jawed. "I'm fine, thank you." She tried to smile. "Oh, is Len here?" Ryoutarou and Kazuki who were blocking Len stepped aside. Len didn't bothered looking as Misa approached him. They had a little silent talk that no one understood. Perhaps the language was "Deutsche". Misa went back to Kahoko and whispered in her ear. "I'll bring you to our house later, okay?"
"Huh?" Hamai Misa just smiled back and left the room.
Dismissal time;
Kahoko thought she had escaped from Hamai Misa but her car is parked almost blocking the gate, waiting for her. Her jaw dropped as Hamai Misa pulled her inside. She was seated at the middle, beside Len. Len's head is leaned on the window, Kahoko sat nervously, crumpling her skirt, Hamai Misa chuckled as she enjoyed watching the two.
"Why aren't you talking? Is there a problem?" Misa asked them. Len gave a glare why Kahoko sweat dropped. "It's like you two have never met."
"Ano…" Kahoko uttered softly.
"What is it Kaho-san?" Misa faced Kahoko. Then her impression suddenly became worried.
"Are you alright, Kaho-san?"
"H-hai… I-I'm Al—"
"Kaho-san!"
