"Damn these hormones" Kyoko woke up and found she has overslept. She slid into her shoes and was off to the bathroom when some smell caught her nose. A smell like something is burning.
"Fire?" She rushed to the kitchen and there revealed a confused Ren. He was all covered in eggs, onions, chilies and could probably replace breakfast with the amount of ingredients he had on himself. Not only this but also a burnt egg completed the scenario.
"What the hell are you doing?" She quickly ran, grabbed the spatula from a frozen Ren and flipped the egg.
"If you can't do it then don't. Now take a side and let me finish"
"But at least let me help. I will cut the veggies" Kyoko nodded at his protest. Ren happily took out the cutting board and started chopping the onion. He looked over to Kyoko who was so into her work that she completely forgot the situation. He smiled inwardly.
Ren thought he was an expert cook so instead of looking at the board he continued his staring and the result came as expected.
"Ouch!" He cut his finger. As Kyoko heard his scream the spatula fell from her hand and without a second thought she ran to him.
Her instincts overcame and in a second his finger was in her mouth with her sucking on the blood.
Ren stood frozen as the statue of liberty. He can't believe what he was seeing.
"I am dreaming. It has to be it" But when he saw the pain in her eyes for him all the notion of it being a dream vanished.
"I wish I could always she this pain in your eyes when I get hurt. Oh how much I can pay for your little concern for me?" He smiled.
As expected as soon as Kyoko realized what she was doing she froze.
"What the hell was I thinking? How could I get carried away?" She immediately left his finger and rushed to her cooking. Scarlet covering her features. Ren smiled and walked over to her.
"Thanks" She stopped dead in her track and then finally turned around.
"Don't you think of something else" She stuttered "I just can't see you...I mean anyone in pain" Ren couldn't believe his ears. She accepted the fact that she cared for him. Even a little bit but still it was a great thing for him. Noticing how much she was trying to avoid the topic he decided to let it go.
"After breakfast please pack your stuff"
"Why?" She said without looking away from her work.
"We are going for honeymoon for three days"
"Honeymoon? But why? We don't need one?" Please say yes. I don't want to spend three days with you alone. I can't take that. My heart will burst out the truth to you.
"We need to make sure that no one doubts us so to make sure we have to carry out these fromalities". She just nodded while she finished doing the last of the breakfast preparations.
The breakfast went normal. No one spoke a word and kyoko was thankful that he didn't bring out the topic. She doesn't want to be anymore embarrassed. She then packed her luggage and he did his. Soon they were on their way to somewhere Ren never mentioned.
"By the way where are we heading to?"She finally broke the silence.
"I thought you will never ask. It's a surprise. You'll know it when you see it" Kyoko could only sigh. This man presents a tough challenge. To act as if she doesn't care in front of the person she most care is known as pure torture. Oh how much she wanted to just tell and invade those lips. But she can't. He did something that had gotten them in this bizarre situation.
The journey continued in silence. They set out on about ten in the morning and now it was close to three. They stopped for a while three or two times to give their backs a rest. But still it was hectic.
"Can't you just tell me where are we going?" Kyoko was annoyed. Damn this man! He knows how to irritate me.
"Well, look at the way we are heading to. Do you find something familiar?" Kyoko decided to pay the road a good look. Realization hit her and her eyes opened wide.
"We are heading to Kyoto, aren't we?"
"Good guess" She sighed and fell into her seat. This was the last place she wanted to go. How am I supposed to face all of them? They must hate me.
But still a part of her wanted to go. She wanted to clear thing between herself and her past. Finally clearing the arguments of herself, she looked over at Ren. There was another strange thing about him today. He was wearing a cap that covered all of his hair and sunglasses.
"You know the paparazzi aren't following you. You can take those off." And here I thought she will never notice. Well I don't want to show it to her yet. This going to be quite big of a shock for her after all.
"It's not time yet. And look we have finally arrived" Kyoko looked out and can see the city starting.
"So where do you want to stay? I can book some famous hotel if you say"
"Fuwa Ryokan" Her voice was firm. Ren noticed the change in her aura. He was happy at how things turned out to be a little more natural since this morning but now the tense atmosphere was here again. Ren continued driving. She saw the streets and some of them seemed familiar as well. A lot changed during these five years. Instead of going to Fuwa Ryokan Ren took off somewhere else. Kyoko was getting seriously impatient.
Where is he taking me?
After a while he stopped the car. The path looked too familiar. How does he know this path? She looked over to him who have already hoped off the car and now was waiting for me. I got out and let him be the leading one. We walked through some forest type area until realization hit me.
He is taking me to my secret place. Where I met...Corn. She looked over at him. His face black as ever. Finally they reached. Everything was the same, the clearing, the rocks. But she was still confused.
"Kyoko" He faced towards me.
"I never meant to hurt you. But in the end I always do. Please forgive me for hiding this from you." He moved backwards and did a back flip. As he did so his cap and sun glasses fell off revealing blonde hair.
"Oh my GOD!" Kyoko gasped as she realized the truth.
"You are...You are…" She can't even bring herself to say his name.
"Corn. Well actually it is Kuon but you misheard so I became Corn. I am sorry for deceiving you" Pure guilt could be seen on his face.
"You lied to me. You lied to me. You made fun of me when I was worrying over Corn. YOU…" Kyoko ran away crying.
"Kyoko, stop!" Ren ran after her. Kyoko kept running, tears streaming down her face.
"I can't believe he lied to me. I was so worried that Corn died and he made fun of me. He knew how much I loved corn and yet. Ren how many more secrets are you hiding to make me hate you. No matter how much I love you, you always hurt me. Why? You don't even know how much it hurts." But still some part of her heart soothed. The tension released and happiness took over. Her fairy prince was alive and now her husband. What could be better? But do she ever listen to this part of her heart? No. While running she never noticed the stone in the way. She just kept running and tripped over it. Ren who was not so far behind froze in his track. So many fears arose in his mind.
"Kyoko!" He ran and found her unconscious."It's my entire fault. I am a despicable human being" He picked her up and ran to his car. Ren drove as fast as he could and reached the closest hospital. Kyoko was admitted in no time.
Ren was pacing back and forth outside the door waiting for the doctor. Finally the door opened and he rushed towards the doctor.
"IS she Okay? Is the baby fine?" The doctor smiled and placed a hand on his shoulder to calm him down.
"Don't worry she is fine. But you need to be more caution in the future. She is sleeping right now. I gave her some vitamins. She will be fine in an hour or two. You can take her home if you want."
"Thank you so much. Can I see her?" Ren released the breathe he unintentionally was holding.
"Sure." The doctor walked away and Ren hurried to the room. As he entered, he found a beautiful girl lying peacefully on the bed. She looked like an angel to him with her black hair around her (She died her hair again). He walked over to her. He reached her bed and stood aside.
"I am so sorry for hurting you Kyoko. I swear I never meant to. I just didn't tell you because you were always so happy when you thought about your fairy prince. I didn't want to break your beautiful fantasies. But I always do. I got you in this messy situation. But I promise I will make you happy. I will do whatever it takes to make you happy. All I need is your forgiveness. Please try to forgive. I never intentionally hurt you. I am sorry." A tear escaped his eye and landed on her cheek. He watched her one last time and left. Unknown to him, Kyoko was awake and listened to every word he said. She lifted her hand and touched the wet teardrop on her cheek.
"I am so sorry Ren but I can't forgive you yet. I haven't still cleared the matters with myself. All I need is time. I will sort out things and may then we can have a better future for ourselves and the baby." Ren went out and cleared things with the doctor. He then came back, picked her up bridal style and off to his car. Kyoko lay motionless in his arms. A part of her never wanted to leave this place and a part of her still thought it was wrong. She knew she had to sort out matter=s with herself or she will never be able to do it with him.
He gently placed her in the front seat and closed the door. He then hoped on to his side and they drove away to Fuwa Ryokan.
