"I'll teach you a lesson if I find you, Silly Girl!"
Yamato mumbled while he was walking in the dark and the cold of the night. Then he felt worried, the scene Sela was at the park the other day suddenly apparently in his mind made his heart burn as fire. What if something like this happened to her again? Yamato promised Tusk that he would look after Sela, he couldn't let bad things happen to her. But after 2 hours finding Sela, Yamato still didn't see her so he decided to go home to see if she had returned, if not, he would report the police immediately. Then without delay, he immediately went home.
When Yamato arrived home, he opened the door and saw Sela was lying on the sofa with her closing eyes. Yamato sighed with relief, his anxiety disappeared. He thought it was the time he had to give her a lesson. Yamato approached Sela, he was about to speak but something stopped him.
"Wait! What's this? Tear? Is she crying? Why? What happened to her?"Yamato asked himself with many question.
The nervousness began to take over Yamato's heart again. He sat down next to Sela, asking.
"Sela, where did you go? I thought you got lost on the way back home. Did something happen to you?"
Sela was trying to restrain her tears, then she sat up and looked at Yamato.
"It's none of your business. I don't need you to worry for me 'cause I'm alright." Sela said.
"How can you say that? At least now you and I are in the same boat. Moreover, you're Tusk's friend, if something happen to you, how can I face Tusk? Maybe he'll kill me, and I don't want to die because of the Silly Girl like you."
"You don't understand anything! Today I was looking for job in many places but I was refused. I felt sad and didn't want to go home so I went for a walk and came home late." Sela tried to keep her voice normal, she said.
"And that's it? OMG! Next time please don't scare me like this again. If you don't want to go home, you have to tell me. You made me worried to death." Yamato shrugged his shoulders, he said.
"Then why didn't you call me? I remember that Tusk saved my phone number for you already, right?" Sela asked.
Yamato stuttered. How could he forget this simple thing? Maybe he was too nervous to think of calling her.
"It's because I didn't remember that I had your phone number." Yamato defended himself and switched to another story. "Well, it's okay now. You should go to your room and rest. Tomorrow I'll go with you to look for a job."
"No, I can do it by myself, you don't have to care." Sela refused.
"Well, it's fine. Tonight I looked everywhere for you and it was a waste of time and effort." Yamato said.
"Now are you boasting about your's deeds? I don't need your help, don't try to pretend to be a good man."
"Talking to the Silly Girl like you just waste my time! Do whatever you want!"
"Idiot! You want to sneak off, right?"
"I think you should take care of yourself first and then deal with me. What a Silly Girl!"
Then Yamato returned to his room, he was very tired and he was annoyed because of Sela's stubborn attitude. As soon as he lied in bed, he fell asleep despite his hungry.
Back for Sela, after dinner with instant ramen noodles, she returned to her room and went to bed. She didn't know how long she had to live in this place with an idiot like Yamato.
….….
A new day had come.
Today was the third day Sela lived in Osaka with Yamato. In the early morning, Sela was awakened by the knock at the door and Yamato's loud voice.
"Sela, wake up! How long do you want to sleep?" Yamato asked.
Sela got up and opened the door. When Sela saw Yamato was looking at her with a smile on his face, she was really annoyed.
"Yamato, yesterday no one woke you up, but today when I still sleep and you were a troublemaker." Sela grumbed because her sleep was interrupted.
"I'm not a troublemaker. I have something to discuss with you, this is a problem between you and me. Hurry up, I'll wait for you in the living room." Yamato said.
Then Yamato went to the living room first. Sela frowned, Yamato was always the one bullied her. She really didn't like Yamato.
After 30 minutes, Sela went to the living room.
"Sela, you're so slow!" Yamato grumbled as soon as he saw Sela.
"Yes, I mean to do that, you know! I want you have to wait for me." Sela replied with a smirk.
"You... Be careful with your words." Yamato glared at Sela, he said.
"Well you don't need to threaten me like that. So what do you want to talk now?" Sela asked.
"Listen, today I will look for a job while you're at home and do the housework."
"You say what? Is something wrong with you huh?"
"No, I mean that."
"Are you kidding me? Who do you think you are? Yamato, I'm not your maid! I won't do the housework for you, never!" Sela said angrily.
"It's not for me but for us!" Yamato said.
"And why us? I think we have nothing to do with each other."
"Because we will live here together for a long time, so we have to share the housework."
"Then why do you let me take care of the housework while you go out and look for the job?"
"I think you should stay at home because yesterday you couldn't find a job, remember?
"Well… That's because I was not lucky yesterday. Today is different!"
"If you say so, then make a deal. Today if one of us can find job, the other will take care of the housework, okay?"
"But what if both of us can find a job?"
"If so, we'll share the housework together. How do you think?"
"Hmmm, let me think…"
"Don't tell me that you're afraid of losing." Yamato said tauntingly.
"Dream on! I'm not afraid of you! Nobody can foreknow what will happen." Sela said.
"Okay! Let's start! I go first, bye Sela." Yamato said quickly and ran away from home.
"Yamato! Wait a sec! You play dirty!" Sela shouted, irritated.
….….
Afternoon.
Sela returned home with sad expression. She didn't know whether she was unlucky or not but today she was all rejected and she still didn't find a job. Opening the door, Sela heard Yamato's satisfied laugh.
"So how about today? You got a good job or not? Yamato asked.
Sela didn't look at Yamato, she threw her bag on the table and plopped down on the sofa.
"Not yet. And you?" Sela spoke quietly.
"So you have to take care of the housework from today because I have found a job."
"Really? How can you…"
"Why not? The reason is I'm better than you, so I found a job within one day, not like you."
"Hey! Even if you win, don't look down on me like that! Tell you, today I lost but sooner or later I'll find my job." Sela glared at Yamato, she said.
"Okay, whatever. Well, tomorrow I will eat lunch at my workplace, you just have to cook dinner for me."
Sela was unhappy but she didn't want to argue with Yamato anymore. She didn't say anything and grabbed her bag and went to her room.
One more day was over and their relationship still had not improved.
To be continued…
