Diary
By: Tino Coury
-Chapter 02-
Yusei definitely can't forget what has just transpired at the Junk Market, as he would often find his mind marveling at the recent incident, with the events repeatedly playing over and over on his mind.
"Hey, Yusei!"
"Yusei, where's the parts that you've bought?"
Although, voices have been calling on to him countless times, he still remained undisturbed.
'What was that?' he thought as he tried tinkering again with Jack's D-wheel. 'What was that feeling that I suddenly felt? My face getting warmer, my heart beating in an odd pace. It's all just plainly weird.' He quickly shoved his palms on his head, hoping that he could get his mind back into reality. But, failed utterly, because the moment he closed his eyes, he just saw those silvery blue eyes staring back at him, as it caused him to shake his head, hoping it would get the image off from his head. 'Does that mean that I should really have a girlfriend?' he thought, a bit vexed. It's not that he's against the idea of having a girlfriend, it's just he never really saw the sense of having one.
Yusei then tried to focus once again on making Jack's D-wheel as he went through the heart of the machine only to hit a point of realization.
'Shoot. I actually forgot to buy those parts. Great, this is just…great.'
"Oh my gosh!" Crow exclaimed, startling Yusei as it caused him to drop the screwdriver he is holding as he now stared at his orange-haired friend with conerm thinking that something might have happened, but the moment he saw Crow holding certain pieces of papers at hand. He just sighed, and went back to what he's doing. "Just where and when did you get these things!" Crow uttered, his mouth agape with his hands carefully holding onto the tickets that were placed on their small dining table. Jack, who happens to arrive from his usual coffee breaks at Café La Green, heard his scream as he curiously, went towards his spiky-haired friend with a brow raised skeptically at him.
"Why? What's that?" The blonde dude asked, but the moment he got a view as to what Crow had in hand, it only made him lose his concern as his lips quickly formed a grimace.
"Look, It's not just one," He stated, his eyes shimmering with pure happiness, as he waved the three tickets in front of Jack's face, "But THREE! Three Special, super limited tickets with backstage passes! Yusei, seriously where did you get this? Did you get this for me, huh!" He exclaimed, as he walked towards Yusei with zest, and shook his shoulders vigorously. "But, wait; you haven't answered my question a while ago. Where are those parts that you're supposed to buy? When you got home, you got nothing." He asked looking for an answer. However, Yusei just kept himself silent as he continued to work on Jack's D-Wheel, causing Crow to form a wild grin. "So, I guess you got this instead, huh? How were you able to get it? I'm a fanatic, but I definitely don't have access to these stuff!" Yusei definitely didn't know what to do, as he just stared at his friends, whose eyes are now staring at him, waiting for an answer.
Should he tell or should he not?
He's not sure, but he's sure about one thing: telling would definitely make a big fuss.
But, could he just remain silent there? Knowing them well enough for the years that they have been together ever since they were living back in Satelite being silent or saying no is definitely not enough.
But, I bet you're wondering how can it be such a fuss?
Well, Yusei being given three special tickets to Aqua's concert, and going home empty handed, not fulfilling his objectives isn't plainly normal. Not to mention, that it was a girl, who gave him the tickets, a girl that has completely clouded his mind ever since their encounter.
"Uhh, I just got them by chance." Yusei blurted, as he quickly went back to whatever he was doing.
"Oh really?" Jack uttered, feeling more skeptical as he allowed his amethyst eyes to continue on piercing on towards the raven haired lad, to show his obvious dissatisfaction with his answer. "I somehow can't believe that you just got them by chance. Knowing you well enough, you wouldn't bother yourself into getting those tickets. Heck, not only you got just one, but you got three, and you don't even know Aqua, despite her fame." Yusei gulped, he really tried to be honest.
Well, it's not really much of an issue, it's just the fact that he got it from a girl! Knowing them well enough, they will definitely not stop on probing until they get every bit of information about it, and once they do, well, he doesn't know if it will be hell or whatever.
But, does he really have a choice? Or maybe he's just being paranoid?
"Did something happen?" Jack asked as face softened with his voice now with a serious tone and a worried feel on it, which Yusei wouldn't want to happen, because in the first place, nothing really happened!
Yusei just sighed, as he felt a massive headache rush on to his head due to its perplexed, confused and messy state.
'Seriously, why am I having a hard time getting myself to tell them that it's just a girl, who gave me the tickets?' He thought as he allowed his fingers to massage his temples.
"Hey, you okay?" Crow asked, as Yusei tried to nod in return.
"I'm fine. It's nothing." He tried to breathe, as he prepared himself for the worst that's about to come. "Do you guys really wanna know?" Crow and Jack looked at him questioningly. Truly, that they're curious, but is it something that serious?
"Well, it's not that serious, or anything. I simply, just got it from a girl. So, as I have said, I got it by chance. Satisfied?" Crow quickly formed a wild grin, as the atmosphere the heavy atmosphere dispersed with Jack on the other hand stared at him now with a goofy smile plastered on his lips.
'I knew it.'
"A girl? Seriously? No wonder you seemed to be in a daze while I was trying to talk to you a while ago! So, how did the girl gave you these oh-so expensive tickets? Seriously, you have a taste for high-class women, Yusei. You haven't got enough of Aki Izayaoi and Sherry Leblanc, huh?" Crow winked back at him, as it now caused Yusei to grimace himself.
"Yes, and No." Yusei sighed. "Now, should I get back to work?"
"Jeeze, what's to work about, you don't even have the parts to do your work. C'mon tell us about it a bit! I mean, I bet there's more to that than just the girl handing you a tickets. Heck, these tickets aren't some fliers that you can just hand out carelessly."
"Fine. Just promise me that you won't make such a big fuss about it."
A girl clad in a simple beige jumper with a white T-shirt having puffy sleeves under it, and simple beige rubber shoes, has been running around the streets of the Junk Market, feeling a bit lost and wary.
'Omg, I don't know where I am right now.' She thought as she sighed. 'Though I am thankful for the guy a while ago, he was so kind enough to help me hide from those freaking reporters. Sigh, if it wasn't for those freaking peepz I wouldn't be lost here right now!' She inwardly growled due to irritation, which quickly died away, as she found herself blushing at the awkward moment that she just had a while ago. Especially she remembered the handsome raven-haired guy staring through her eyes. It was intense, and their proximity helped it to be even more intensified.
'In fairness, he was handsome, not to mention that he looks like the winner of the Fortune Cup, and the one who pwned Team New World on the WRGP! But, that could merely just be a coincidence if he was that person. Maybe he was a fanatic? Jeeze, I can't believe I'm actually thinking about him when I already have a boyfriend!'
However, before she can even fantasized, her phone rang as it completely disturbed her on her thoughts and stopped her in her tracks.
*Hey, are you okay?* A male voice sounded from her phone's speakers. *I am sorry that we took so long, it was kind of hard to track down your signal.*
But, the girl just sighed in relief for she was waiting for that for the last couple of hours. It's not that she can't call, the problem is she doesn't have enough cellphone load to make a call, which somehow makes her regret for going for a prepaid number. But, then again it has it's own uses.
"Nah, its okay. It was kind of my fault for pushing through this anyway. I'm just happy that you found me, and even bothered to call me. So, where should I go now?"
*Just turn left after you go through the alley at your right.*
With that, she quickly went on her way as she just saw a familiar black car parked on the street, causing her to form a very wide smile, as she quickly got in.
"You really have to learn when and where not to trust your girly intuition. I mean, seriously anything could have happened, Rika. Or should I say, Aqua?" The man sitting beside her uttered. The man looked as if he was in his mid-twenties, whilst he's simply clad jeans, T-shirt, and a navy blue jacket.
"Hey, don't call me like that in here, and its not trusting my intuition. I'm just following what I think is right." She sighed as she finally took off her beret, allowing her slight-wavy, bronze hair to fall on to her back, and used the beret to fan herself.
"Really?" The man asked, while raising a skeptic brow on her, "I wonder how many times have I heard that and saw you ending up in a mess. And you still consider that right? I mean, seriously this guy is just as terrible, you shouldn't allow him to keep on doing this to you." But, the girl just turned her back away from him, and stared at the buildings outside the window, trying to block away his words.
Truly, he was right. She always ended up getting ditched by her boyfriend recently, which always left her to be alone somewhere at someplace she barely knew as it only ended up making her wait for hours to the point that the media has already gotten to her, and would chase her until she could make a great escape. Truly, it has been happening too frequently with her boyfriend, but she just can't assume so much, as she gave him the benefit of the doubt, despite the rumors that's been spreading all throughout the public, that he could be cheating, falling out of love, and worst using her fame for his own popularity. Prior to that, is a rumor that her guy is selling her out to the media by doing the ditching thing, but as said, she gave it a benefit of the doubt.
However, this wasn't new to her. She has been to a few relationships that only ended up with her crying due to either of those stated above.
But, was that enough to make her stop?
Was that enough to make her frigidly cold towards love?
Was that enough to make her freakingly tired to even dare fall in love deeply once more?
Definitely, not.
She just couldn't stop believing. She just couldn't allow herself to lose hope. Or maybe she was just making herself live in a delusional world where this thing called love existed?
But, why does she even bother believing with something that's so superficial—this thing called love?
"I bet he was just busy. Maybe he had something to do, like a shoot or something. You know how showbiz can be demanding right?" She uttered trying to make a rationalization, but her dear manager just shook his head disappointingly.
"Rika, you know that I am just worried about you, especially that you'll be having your concert tomorrow."
"Exactly, the more that you shouldn't do this to me." She bit her lip, as she felt herself tremble a bit. Of course, she's not frigid, and she's definitely not numb, everything is actually making her crazy!
If she has to be honest, she just doesn't know, as to why she keeps allowing this to herself. Maybe it's because of her naïve belief that this thing called true love does existed, and maybe just maybe with the love rendered to her right now, it could be that.
But, deep inside she always had this question on mind:
'Is true love really this painful?'
"I'm sorry, Rika. It's just that I'm worried about you, and you're like a little sister to me you know." The blond guy beside her uttered, as his hazel eyes stared at her worriedly.
"It's okay. I understand, Nate." She stated as her lips formed a sad smile. 'Yes, those rumors aren't true. Get a grip, Rika. He may haven't showed up today, but he promised to be there tomorrow. He'll definitely come, I'm sure of it.'
"Oh so that's what happened?" Crow laughed, as his lips once again formed a mischievous grin. "I can't believe that I finally came to see the day were my friend has fallen in love! So, you're going to come tomorrow, right!"
"No." was Yusei's quick reply. "And definitely no, I'm not in love, Crow. You know that I'm really not in to stuff like that." Yusei sighed, as he had keep on saying that for the 100th time already.
"Awww, c'mon! That will be awesome! You're missing the fun! I bet Jack wouldn't mind coming along, plus those are three tickets anyway, right?"
"Then why won't you bring your girlfriends along or something. I don't mind. Because, I'm not interested." Yusei stated flatly, as he keep on trying to focus on to Crow's D-wheel this time.
"Jeeze, stop lying! I know that you wanted to see that girl that gave these to you, and seeing that she gave you those expensive tickets. I highly bet that she could be there." Crow keep on bugging Yusei with unwavering perseverance. P
"It wouldn't hurt to come. Plus, it's only right for you to go out from the garage from time to time, and loosen yourself up. Think of it as a big break or something?" Jack finally joined it, causing Crow to feel elated, and be more persistent.
"You really won't stop insisting me to go, huh?" Yusei sighed as he finally gave in, and dropped all his tools to face the two persistent guys, who just nodded at him in return.
"Fine, if that makes you happy then I'll go with you guys."
Wahahaha, the intro got even longer than how I expected it to be. XD
Well, I guess writing the idea is definitely different after all.
Anyways, I hope that you had fun reading this ;p I definitely poured my all into this one, as I actually took almost a day composing this. =.=
Yeah, it's short, but I had a hard time for some odd reason?o.O Well, sometimes even if I already have it on my head, I tend to find a way of expressing it in words.
So, yeah, I'll leave this at that for now.
Btw, just so you'd know I posted a poll on my profile regarding which I should update faster, so if you wanted this or my other fics to be my priority then you should probably take a look at it.
Anyways, please do review! Because your thoughts are highly appreciated, comments, criticisms, flames (yes, flames because even if it's a flame its still a plus to my review count XD that's just how much of an optimist me is ;p), and what not are highly accepted!
So, TC and do look forward for my next update!
