Chapter 2: A Soda Can
Scream.
Of course you're going to be scared, especially when there's a an intoxicated individual behind you and a huge, bulky man in front of you smiling like a mad, psycho person would. So she did only one thing that came across her mind. To scream, so she did, hoping that somebody would rescue her somehow.
"Someone! anybody help me please!"
But Yumi knew that her attempt to scream for help was futile. Who in the world would hear her much the less help her in a dark, dark alley in the stroke of midnight?
She was very terrified, extremely so when the man behind her suddenly laughed a laugh drenched in malevolence. She turned around again and quickly realized that there was of no means any type of escape. So the ex-rosa chinensis en bouton prayed fervently to Mother Mary for strength, guidance and most importantly, help.
'Maria-sama please! I beg of you, save me. Just please save me….'Yumi trailed off to herself while frantically trying not to pass out in sheer terror, for the fear of something really bad is going to happen if she did black out.
"Shut up you little weasel!" The drunk man spat out harshly while trying to clamp his hand over the now trembling girl's mouth.
"NOOO!", Yumi replied with shaky voice and with that, she violently struggle while trying to take the nasty, callous hand of her offender off of her lips.
"Now, now, don't bruise her radiant face. We don't want our little princess to have a blemished face". The man behind Yumi abruptly stated.
-splash splash-(like the sound of feet splashing)
"Wait, did you hear that Takashi?", the sober man asked his friend in sudden alert, his ears waiting for the sounds of sudden movement.
"Umm…-hiccup- I didn't hear anything, did you?"
All of a sudden, the three of them heard a whizzing sound..-whizzzz-
"what in the-hic- world is that sou-" .Takashi's sentence was suddenly interrupted by a loud crack, because before they knew what transpired, the sober one turned around and got his face smacked with an empty, aluminum soda can square in the face, therefore crushing his nose cartilage.
"AGH, what the heck? Where are you? Show yourself you coward!" The sober man cried out in deep pain and agony while holding his heavily, bleeding and broken nose.
"Hey you two! why can't you just leave the girl alone uh?.We can clearly see that she doesn't want to have anything to do with the likes of the two of you. So why don't you just set the girl free and just run along and not bother anyone anymore ." A masculine voice replied.
'Oh Maria-sama, thank you for answering my prayers!',Yumi thanked the Virgin Mary several times in her head that finally, she has answered her pleadings for help.
"Hmph, why don't you mind your own business little boy. Or do you think you can take on two fully grown adults by yourself?. The man retaliated with a smug smile.
"Oh? I think I can handle you two bare handed. And please, you guys call yourselves adults? Obviously your actions says otherwise…", a mysterious boy slowly came out of the darkness and into the flickering street light with a smirk glued to his gorgeous face.
'That guy has a very handsome face; his hair so black like a crow's feather and his eyes are so grey… wait what did I thought of just now?' Yumi exclaimed to herself.
'Baka, baka Yumi! This is a situation where your suppose to cry in hysterics, because of what's happening right now and what happened earlier and all you thought about just now was how handsome this guy's face was?', Yumi blushed at her mind's thoughts.
' And now I'm blushing like a ripe, red tomato. Seriously can this night get any better?' She asked herself sarcastically.
"Why you little bastard! Takashi, get him!" The clear-headed man suddenly shouted in command whilst holding Yumi's wrist in a vice-like grip.
"Let go of me you scoundrel, your hurting my wrist!" Yumi cried out all of a sudden , her body sensing the sudden pain in her left wrist but not having adequate strength to free herself from the evildoer.
"You are so- hiccup- going to get it little man" Takashi slurred while cracking his big , fat man hands( I don't know why I just added that, it sounded funny to me at the moment).
Raising his right hand and gesturing a come-and-get-me motion, the handsome boy finally shouted, "Bring it on old man!". And with this, he readied his body to a fighting stance, preparing for a duel.
"You asked for it! " The furious man hollered out.
As Takashi was running and preparing to make his knuckles make contact with the boy's cheek, the teenage boy just did a side-step, caught the older man's fist, twisted his wrist and before the man knew it, he was lying on the ground, with his wrist swollen and purple and after a minute, couldn't stand up by himself because of his injuries and the fact that he's completely wasted didn't help him at all.
He couldn't believe his very own eyes! 'How on earth did he manage to hurt a 200 pound man to the point where he couldn't get up?. maybe because Takashi's too drunk.' The other man wondered to himself with fear clearly evident in his eyes.
"If I were you, the best thing to do right now is let the girl go, get your manly buddy here to stand up, and leave this place. Now ", the raven-haired boy told him with a deadly glare while slowly but surely advancing towards Yumi and the man with the broken nose.
"Fine." The man said, shoving Yumi rather harshly to the peculiar boy then started to jog where Takashi was. And while helping his drunken friend get up, he suddenly shouted,
"Don't you think that just because you got my friend down into the pavement with speed doesn't mean you've got us into a bloody pulp. And you were just lucky that my friend here is drunk!, the man with the bleeding nose yelled out while both him and Takashi were walking or limping? away.
"Whatever! And don't let me ever see the both of you near this place ever again. Do you understand me?" The boy shouted with triumph laced to his statement.
"Are you ok miss? They didn't hurt or do anything bad to you did they?", the guy asked with concern noticeable in his voice.
"I'm okay, my wrist is fine now thanks to you….?", Yumi muttered with her voice trailing off, not knowing the guy's name or how to address her rescuer.
"Oh the name's Sakamoto Kaoru by the way"
"Arigatou Sakamoto-san for saving me. My name is Yumi, Fukuzawa Yumi. ." Yumi murmured, as her eyes were gradually closing little by little.
'Ugh, I'm feeling a little bit dizzy, and my eyelids feel like a ton right now. I feel like I'm going to faint',the student of Lilian thought to herself, her eyebrows creasing.
How right she was indeed.
"Well, we should get out of this one heck of a downpour, right Yum-" Kaoru didn't get to finish his declaration, for the poor mocha-eyed girl suddenly collapsed and if it wasn't for him, she'd have a bruised elbow or two by now.
'Man, what should I do now?' the surprised boy exclaimed to himself while holding the completely soaked Yumi and trying to figure out what to currently do in this kind of situation.
'Ok, I've got it. I'll just carry her to my house, which is not far away from where we are right now thank God. Then tell my mom everything, including on what happened and she'll help her change into something dry and everything else will fall into place from there'. Kaoru figured to himself with a smile printed to his face.
And with that, he got her on his arms(yes, meaning that he's carrying her bridal style) and started to walk with Yumi positioned securely on his arms.
'Oh dear Lord, how will *oka-san react when she finds out about this?' Kaoru thought to himself,while imagining the look of his mother which made him tremble with fear. Walking faster, he hoped that by the time they reached his house, both are safe and sound and away from danger.
To Be Continued..
