Chapter Three: Meeting the Groom
-
Kukai leaned back in his chair, going back and fourth, causing his agent, Mika, to get very annoyed and worried that Kukai will fall back and hit his head.
"Mika, can't you just put a hold on all the talk shows for now? I got bigger and more important things to worry about!" Kukai told her.
Mika sighed and took off her glasses and cleaned off the lenses with a small rag she pulled out of her pocket, "Look, Kukai. When I became your agent I told you I was gonna make sure you become big! The way to get big is to go on talk shows, commercials, adds everything!"
Kukai's chair slammed forward and he put his elbows on the table and rested his head in his hand, and started to play with the silverware on the table, "I know, I know. But I want to take a break for, um, the next month and a half."
"What?!" Mika asked him, placing her glasses back on. Kukai didn't pay attention to her and looked out at the hotel lobby. "I have some important stuff going on. My friend is getting married and I wanna help. I don't have time to do talk shows and commercials." he said dully.
Mika sighed, "But you just became a big soccer star a year ago. Sure, people know you now, but if you take a break for a month, people are going to forget you! They won't even know you when soccer season comes back!" she explained.
Kukai ignored her and perked up when he saw the two adults Yaya's parents were talking to yesterday walk to a table with a young boy following behind them.
"He's not that good looking," Kukai mumbled with a grin on his face, causing Daichi, who was sitting on the table picking at Kukai lunch, look up and nod his head, "Kukai you are much better looking then that guy!"
"What are you talking about?" Mika asked, looking at where Kukai was staring at. "Nothing, Mika." Kukai said quickly, noticing Yaya still wasn't there. Kukai turned his head and continued with his conversation; "People are not going to forget about me." he made clear.
Mika sighed, "That's what you think now. But when you are forgotten don't start crying to me about it. I tried to tell you but would you listen, noooo!"
"So, are we done here?" Kukai asked. Mika's shoulders fell and she nodded, "Fine. But if something big comes your way, will you please consider it?" she asked.
Kukai shrugged, "It depends what I'm doing that day."
Mika rolled her eyes and stood up, "Fine. Goodbye Kukai, remember to practice your moves during your break." She told him, pushing in her chair.
"Okay. And, don't worry about the bill. I'll take care of it," He told her, standing up. Mika nodded walked out of the café of the Kakogawa Hotel.
Kukai stood up and Daichi followed him, "What about Ya-" Daichi was cut off by Kukai quickly falling behind a plant by the table those people, He was guessing were the Misubi's, were sitting at.
"Shh! Yaya and her parents are here!" He whispered, peaking out from behind the plant.
Daichi looked with Kukai and saw Yaya walking to the table with her parents. Yaya's hair was down and it looked like it was straightened and she had a small bow on the left side of her head. She was wearing a knee length pink skirt, the type of skirt business woman wore, and a white shirt and pink jacket that matched her skirt and the pears Kukai would always see her mother wearing.
Her parents were dressed like they were going to a business meeting then brunch. Kukai wondered if this was the way people dressed when meeting the person they were going to marry.
Kukai saw that Yaya's father say something, but he realized they were too far away to even hear what was going on.
"Crap, I can't hear," Kukai told Daichi. Kukai mentally slapped himself for not bringing a hat and fake mustache as a disguise.
"Excuse me?"
Kukai jumped and looked up. A waiter stood behind him, pushing a desert cart. "Oh, um, hi." Kukai said casually.
"Is there a reason you're sitting behind a plant sir?" He asked him. Kukai nodded, "Yes, but it's a long story."
Kukai then eyed the cart and an idea popped into his head, "Hey, come here!" Kukai said, motioning for the waiter to bend down next to him.
The waiter did so and Kukai read his name tag, "Listen, Jon, I need to listen in on someone's conversation without having them find out I did. You think I could hide under this cart and you wheel it over next to the table so I can listen?" he asked.
The waiter thought for a moment, "Hey, aren't you Kukai Soma?" he asked. Kukai sighed, "Yeah, I am."
"Okay. I'll rolled you over to the table of your choice but only if I can get an autograph for my sister and twenty bucks." the waiter, Jon, bargained. Kukai sighed and took out his wallet, "Fine. Here's the twenty and I'll give you the autograph after, okay?" Kukai told him.
Jon took the money and nodded, "sure."
Kukai pushed the plant back and pointed to the table where Yaya was sitting at and Jon nodded. Kukai pushed the white table cloth up and climbed under the cart. Jon made sure no one couldn't see Kukai and started to pull him over to the table.
The cart was wheeled over to the table, behind Yaya's chair, and Jon said, "Would you like to see the deserts from the cart?" he asked them.
"Oh, yes please!" Yaya said happily. Yaya's mother sent her a look and Yaya paused, "Um, maybe later sir." she told him.
Jon nodded, "I'll just leave it here for you to choose." He said, and left, leaving Kukai and Daichi there to listen.
"Now, back to the wedding plans," Mr. Misubi said, putting his menu down. "Are you two going to plan it or should we hire someone?" He asked Hiro and Yaya.
Yaya nodded, "I've always wanted to plan my own wedding. Is that okay, Hiro?" She asked him.
Daichi floated out from under the cart to get a closer look at this Hiro guy. Before he looked like he was the same height as Yaya. He had black hair and a somber look pasted to his face. He was wearing a suit and his hair was brushed neatly.
"Kukai is way better looking," Daichi said, matter-of-factly.
Yaya turned her head slightly and Daichi flew back under the cart. Kukai glared at him and Daichi smiled slyly, "She didn't see me, don't worry!" he whispered.
Hiro cleared his throat, "Fine. I do plan to marry once so I guess planning it won't be so hard." he said.
Yaya smiled, "Good! This is going to be fun! And this way we'll get to learn more about each other too!"
Hiro nodded, the somber look not leaving his face. Kukai looked at Daichi, "How can Yaya think she can fall in love with that square? Total mismatch!" he whispered.
"Now, Yaya, what are you plans after you marry Hiro?" Mrs. Misubi asked. Yaya smiled brightly, "I've always wanted to be a ballerina! I plan to apply to this dance school in Tokyo City and then, hopefully, I can become a professional ballerina!" She told them.
Yaya parents both smiled; they both knew their daughter was a great ballerina and that she could go far. And Yaya didn't even think she couldn't do it because she was getting married. She thought she would have freedom to become a ballerina like she planned. Oh, she was so wrong.
Mr. Misubi shook his head, "Problem. Yaya after you marry our son there will be no need for you to become a ballerina. Hiro will support you and your future children. You may go see the Ballet, but you may not become a ballerina." he explained.
Yaya's father spoke up, "I'm sure Yaya could be able to become a ballerina! There is no reason she shouldn't."
"Going to Tokyo City to a dance school and becoming a ballerina is not something Yaya should be doing. She should stay home and watch the house, clean and take care of the children." Mr. Misubi explained calmly.
"What children?!" Kukai whispered angrily.
Yaya's father was going to speak up again, when Yaya stopped him, "its okay, papa. I can always go see the ballet still and I can always dance in my spare time. It's no big deal." she told him, giving him a reassuring smile.
Mr. Yuiki looked at his daughter sadly, but nodded his head.
"No way! Being a ballerina is Yaya's dream! What is she doing?!" Kukai whispered. Daichi shrugged, not knowing the answer.
"Speaking of children," Mrs. Misubi said, "When are you planning on having them?"
Hiro and Yaya both shared glances.
"Well, I think we should get to know each other first and, who really wants children as soon as they're married? So I think we should wa-"
"As soon as we're married." Hiro interrupted.
Yaya's eyes widened and she stared at Hiro. "Really? That soon?" She asked.
Hiro nodded, "Yes. That way you won't be bored when I'm at work and you're stuck at home."
"She wouldn't be bored if you let her become a ballerina!" Kukai mumbled angrily.
Yaya sighed and nodded, "Right."
Yaya turned her head to her mother, "Can I please get some cake now?" She asked. Her mother nodded, since she could clearly hear her daughter's growling stomach. Yaya smiled and turned in her seat to face the desert cart. She grabbed an already cut piece of chocolate cake and turned back to the table.
"Hiro, would you like some cake? My parents told me you really like sweets so-" Yaya started.
"I don't care that much for sweets, really." Hiro told her.
Yaya paused and sighed inward, "Oh, okay." she said. She quietly started eating her cake while the parents kept talking about wedding plans and what would happen after the marriage.
Kukai was about to stand up and protest to everything that was going on at the table when a very loud musical sound emanated from Kukai's pants pocket.
Yaya perked up at the sound and turned around in her chair, as did everyone else at the table, and looked at the desert cart.
Kukai quickly pulled his phone out, only making the sound louder, and pressed "Reject call" and placed it back in his pocket.
But, Yaya had already heard the sound and lifted up the cloth to see Kukai and Daichi, sitting under the cart.
"Oh, hi Yaya. Funny running into you here." He said casually, smiling nervously.
Yaya stared at him in disbelief and shook her head slightly. "Kukai?" Mrs. Yuiki asked, also in disbelief.
Kukai tried to get up, but hit his head on the top of the cart. "Ow," He murmured. He then lifted up the cloth on the other side of the cart, and crawled out. He stood up in a rush and rubbed the top of his head where he bumped it, "Hi, Mr. and Mrs. Yuiki. Hey Yaya." He said.
"What are you doing here, Kukai?" Mr. Yuiki asked him. "Well, I had a meeting with my agent here today and I, um," Kukai didn't want to say he was spying on them, but he couldn't really think of an excuse as to why he was under the desert cart.
Daichi quickly whispered something in his ear, and Kukai spoke up, "I saw this awesomely delicious chocolate cake so I came over to get some and I didn't want to have to deal with all the fans so I hid under the cart and ate the cake. I had no idea the guy wheeled me over here. What a coincident!" he said.
Yaya raised an eyebrow at him, but shook her head, "Um, Mr. Misubi, Mrs. Misubi, Hiro this is my good friend Kukai Soma. Kukai this is Hiro and his parents." she introduced them.
Kukai sent them a smile tried his very best not to glare at Hiro. "Would you like to join us?" Hiro asked him.
Yaya was about to protest when Kukai nodded his head, "Sure!" He said happily, grabbing a free chair from a near by table.
He took a seat next to Yaya and her mother, and he grabbed a piece of cake from the cart, "So, you're the guy Little Yaya is getting married to, huh?" Kukai asked with a chuckle in his voice to Hiro.
Hiro nodded, "Yes. I've seen you before."
Kukai smiled, "You like soccer?" He asked. Hiro shook his head, "No. A girl that works at the company has your picture on her desk. It's very noticeable." He said.
Kukai's shoulder's dropped some, "That's what happens when you get fan girls." he said with a laugh.
Hiro didn't even flinch. Kukai stared at him for a moment, and then took another bite of his cake.
"Now, on to the living situation." Mr. Yuiki said as the waiter came around to get their brunch orders.
Yaya smiled at the waiter when he came up to her and her cheeks flushed, embarrassed that she was eating sweets before brunch.
Yaya and Kukai just kept their cake while everyone else waited for their food. Yaya took a sip of her water, "Well, I was hoping to live in a homey kind of house! Like the one my parents have or like Kukai's house! His old one and new one! All three have that homey feel that I've always wanted! And-" again, Yaya was cut off by Hiro,
"We should move closer to the company and there are no houses in the city, Yaya. We'll be moving into a pent house at the Akatsuki Hotel. I'm sure you'd like it there and the owner of the hotel is a family friend so we won't have to worry about price or anything." Hiro explained.
Kukai was about to cut in, to say Hiro should stop making at the decisions, but paused.
"Oh, okay. That sounds nice too," Yaya told him. Kukai stared at Yaya.
"Yaya! What are you doing?! Stand up for what you think! Don't give in! Fight, fight!" Daichi told her.
Kukai waited for Yaya to take Daichi's advice, but Yaya acted like he wasn't even there and started to eat her cake again and let them all continue their talk about her and Hiro's future.
Kukai leaned back in his chair and listened closely to the conversation going on about his best friend and her "fiancé".
Finally, after eating their brunch and talking for another ten minutes, they all stood up and went to pay for the brunch.
Kukai also paid for his lunch that he had with Mika. The seven of them all walked out of the hotel and a car drove up to the curb for the Misubi family.
"It was nice seeing you Yaya. My wife and Hiro will be back tomorrow for the planning." Mr. Misubi told Yaya as he stepped in the car.
Yaya nodded. Hiro walked up to her, "It was a pleasure meeting you Yaya." Hiro turned to Kukai, "Nice to make your acquaintance, Kukai Soma." He said to him, then got into the car and shut the door.
Yaya's father tried to wave down a car with the help of his wife while Kukai, Daichi and Yaya waited by the hotel doors.
"Yaya," Kukai started. Yaya turned her head to look at him, "Yeah?"
"What was up with you back there? That Hiro guy kept making the decisions without taking what you thought into consideration!" Kukai told her.
Yaya nodded, "I know." She said calmly.
"If you know then why did you go along with it? And they don't want you to be a ballerina! You've been a ballerina since you were a kid and they don't want you to go to that dance school you've wanted to go to since you were ten! It's your dream and they don't want you to fulfill it so you can become a baby breeding machine! That isn't fair to you!" Kukai argued.
Yaya sighed, "Its okay Kukai. I wasn't even that good at ballet anyway. Going to that school would be a waste of money and," Yaya paused and started to intertwine her hands together, "Babies are really cute! I wouldn't mind having a baby after the wedding."
Kukai stared at Yaya sympathetically, "Yaya you're lying," He whispered. Yaya pretended not to hear him.
She put on a bright smile and looked at Kukai, "I'll talk to you later, okay Kukai? Bye," She said and quickly ran over to her parents, who finally got a car.
Kukai waved to her and pulled out his cell phone.
"Are you okay, Kukai?" Daichi asked in a whisper. Kukai felt a lump in his throat and shut his eyes tightly, "F-Fine! Knowing that my best friend's life is going to be miserable marrying that guy is just f-fine with me! And considering that the best friend is also the woman I've been in love with for almost six years!" Kukai placed his phone roughly in his pocket and wiped his eyes, "No I am not okay!" he shouted.
Daichi looked at Kukai and patted his shoulders, "Come on. We should call a cab or something and get home. No one likes to cry in public."
Kukai scrunched his eyebrows together and his eyes began to water, "Yeah," He mumbled and pulled his cell phone back out and started to call a car.
"Don't worry Kukai, it'll be okay," Daichi assured him.
