Chapter 11- Confession

Yumi widened her eyes in alarm as she gazed eye to eye with the person on top of her. The night was silent except for the creatures in the dark. With barely visible eyes under the moonlight, both scanned into each other with deep observation. Neither made a noise soon after the frightful scream. No one dared to move.

Soon, Yumi's eyes softened and a look of astonishment overtook her.

"Oneesama.." Yumi managed to utter a soft word before embracing the figure tightly.

Under the sudden immense pressure, a streak of tear was let out. However, it was quickly absorbed and dampened the black cloth that surrounded the beautiful face.

Suddenly, both silhouettes were momentarily blinded when the lights came flickering on. Yumi squeezed her eyes shut to fend off the glaring light before directing her attention towards the door. Her father, mother and Yuki came barging in. All of them carried some sort of a weapon in their hand. They had looks that were filled with fury. Yumi's father carried a golf club, her mother a stick and Yuki a baseball bat.

Before anyone could say anything, the pain was inflicted.

"WHAT ARE YOU DOING TO MY DAUGHTER?!" The voice of Yumi's father roared like thunder as he swung that particular piece of metal hard down on the person in front of him. Well, to him, it looked like Yumi was about to be taken advantage of. Everything was in a mess. His daughter's clothes and hair were both disheveled.

The figure screamed squirmed in pain as the club landed heavily on her shoulder and back. Yumi had tried to stop the impact with her hands but was rather unsuccessful. It seemed as though the person in front of her was going through excruciating pain.

"Father! Stop!" Yumi yelled at her father as she tried struggling with that piece of metal on his hand.

"Yumi?! What are you saying?! We must capture this thief and hand him over to the police at once! Yuki, get the police now!" Yumi's father shouted in reason.

The figure had already rolled over on the other side of the bed wincing as the sting hit her. The pain was too much to bear.

"Yuki! NO! Please, wait! Father.. Th-This is a misunderstanding, this person here is not a bad person. Not a thief, not a burglar, not some psychopath! It's Sachiko sama!!" Yumi hollered as loud as possible as she placed her hands in protection over the figure to her right.

Yumi stood in silence for awhile as she tried to make sense to the people in front of her. It took a while for the words to sink in. All three of them stayed in their positions with eyes raised in shock and their mouths gaping widely.

"EH?!!!" Both Yumi's parents gawked as they started to comprehend the situation.

"Y-You're ly-lying?!" Yuki exclaimed in shock.

"I am not!" Yumi quickly turned and tore the mask off her face.

Underneath that piece of material was a completely shock ridden and gasping Sachiko. She was sweating profusely as she tried to take in the throbbing pain.

"I- I'm sorry for causing all these trouble! I didn't mean to startle all of you either! Please.. I'm sorry!" Sachiko managed to pull herself up and stumbled to her feet. She bowed deeply in front of Yumi's family.

"A-Ah.." Yumi's father breathed in relief with shock and embarrassment.

"Sachiko chan.. I should be sorry too. I should have clarified before handing a hit on you. But more importantly, why are you here? How did you get in? And.. Why are you dressed as though you're ready to rob a bank?" Yumi's father lowered his fighting stance as he pressed for an answer. Many thoughts ran through his puzzling face.

"Ojisama.. Please pardon my behavior. I wanted to see Yumi.. I- I wasn't able to see her previously and.. A- And I needed to talk to her urgently.. I came in by the window on the first floor. I am really sorry to have startled you and disrupted your sleep. I shouldn't.." Sachiko explained as she lowered her head in shame of herself. Soon, drops of tears started flowing down her face. The shame she had brought to the Ogasawara name was incorrigible. Sachiko winced as she dug her fingers into her palm, protruding her own flesh.

"Father! Mother!" Yumi spoke desperately as she glanced at her family members.

"Well then, I think it's best to leave the both of you alone for a while. I'm sure that you have many things to communicate to each other. We understand the situation. Your father and I will not report this case to the police or tell anyone about it. Ah, and Sachiko chan, I can only hope that the next time you decide to come visit us, you'll take the main door of our house. Alright?" Yumi's mother smiled as she assured Sachiko with loving eyes.

After a few moments of shuffling of footsteps, the door closed. With silent movements, Yumi then turned to face Sachiko.

"Sachiko sama.." Yumi said as she extended her reach out to the person standing beside her bed.

"Come.. Sit down first." Yumi led Sachiko by the hand and urged her to move in for a sit.

As she sat down, Sachiko spoke.

"Yumi.. I'm sorry.. I- I'm sorry for all the mess I've created. I.." With tears choking her words, Sachiko could hardly continue further.

"Sachiko sama.. Calm down first alright? Now.. Slowly, narrate to me the whole of the story." Yumi said as she stroked the hair of the distraught girl in front of her.

"Yumi.. I was devastated.. I didn't know what to do.." Sachiko broke down in sobs as she told Yumi of the events preceding the night.

----------

"Why?! Why did she not want to see me?!" Sachiko cried out loud as she slumped herself against her own bed. It had felt like a thousand thorns just cut through her fragile heart. The pain was unbearable and straining. It was very difficult keeping a focus. Sachiko had just been hit with the greatest rejection of her life.

In an attempt to restrain herself, Sachiko started venting her anger out on her servants and furniture. The whole Ogasawara mansion was in chaos. Where ever Sachiko went, she had sent objects flying. She didn't mind if the people around her were put off by her behavior and attitude. She couldn't care less. She wanted to end her misery and pain desperately.

Just then, a hand caught her arm.

"Sa-chan.. Now.. That action of yours is very lacking in elegance. Would you please stop it? You'll rip the house into shreds in no time." Kashiwagi Suguru stated as he prevented Sachiko from doing anymore damage.

"Suguru san.. Tell me! Tell me why?! Why does she not want to see me?! Why.." Sachiko groaned as she fell into a helpless heap on the floor.

"Sa-chan.. Don't be irrational. Please understand the situation alright? Yumi chan has just been discharged from hospital and I don't think that it is the best course of action for you to press things out of her. She may not know how to answer your questions. Or maybe she just needs some calm and peace for the time being. Let her have some space before seeking her out. Compose yourself first." Suguru gave Sachiko a stern piece of advice as he reprimanded her.

"Suguru san.. Please.. I don't know how.. I don't care what I have to do.. I need to speak with her.. I need to see her.. All of this is killing me.." Sachiko had started venting her frustrations out again. This time, she was beating her own fists against the floor.

"Alright Sa-chan.. Let me think of something. I promise you I'll help you, so stand up and organize yourself. You should probably wash up first." Suguru said as he ushered her upstairs.

"If you come back with that hysterical attitude of yours, I'm not going to listen to you.. Understand? Stand up, Sachiko!" Suguru shouted out as he turned around pacing back and forth.

'Oh my my.. That Sa-chan.. I guess I'll have to put some serious plan into action..' Suguru thought as a wide grin flashed across his face.

----------

"And so Suguru san told me to mask myself up so I wouldn't be so visible in the dark. I guess this was his plan of camouflaging and smuggling me into your house. But I didn't know that this would get out of hand. I'm really sorry and ashamed that I've caused your parents and family worry. They must be thinking badly of me now.." As Sachiko finished her sentence, she struggled to look directly into Yumi's eyes. What she saw astounded her.

There was a jumbled look of relief, concern and attentiveness on her face.

"Yumi.. You haven't changed at all, have you?" Sachiko whispered as she forced a weak smile upon herself.

"Sachiko sama.. I understand. I'm terribly sorry for not seeing you earlier. I-I just had to organize my thoughts for a bit. I didn't think that it would lead to such a situation either. Please, don't blame yourself anymore.. Everyone will understand." Yumi smiled as she comforted Sachiko.

'Oneesama.. You're like a child today..' Yumi chuckled as she thought to herself.

Instantly, the sound of the clattering of beads brought Yumi back to reality.

Placed in front of her was something of dear significance. The rosary.

Sachiko had removed it from her neck and was directing it at the precious girl in front of her.

Suddenly, Sachiko enveloped Yumi in a huge embrace.

"Yumi.. I.. I don't know how to seek your forgiveness. I will do anything.. Anything for you.. This time, it's really my fault. Yumi.. I loved the scarf. I loved the gifts you made for me. When I saw you in hospital that day, I wanted to punish myself badly. I was hurting you. Even when you meant me good, I treated your concerns with hate and disdain. I had cast you aside and made you sad. Many people tried to make me see the light. Rei, Yoshino, Shimako and Noriko. Even oneesama and Sei sama.. They came and explained everything to me. They told me you meant well. Yet, with this horrible temper of mine, I made you even sadder. When oneesama spoke to me, I realized that I was being very childish and foolish. I was too selfish to see the gift I have in front of me. And as a result, I lost you. Even if it's just for a few days, I feel extremely terrible. Without you by my side, I feel empty. Like a hollow voice reaching no one. I felt that I could just.. Die.." As Sachiko finished her sentence, she put her hands to her face, masking her emotions.

"Oneesama.." Yumi was speechless and stayed there, immobile for a second.

"Yumi.. And.. I.. I have something to say to you..it doesn't matter how you may view me after tonight.. I have to say it." Sachiko said as she inhaled a deep breath.

Yumi glanced up at the person in front of her. Not knowing what to say, she nodded her head and prodded Sachiko to continue.

"Yumi.. I.. It's been for sometime already. But I think I love you. No. I love you.." Sachiko paused to reorganize her words.

"I realized it when you were with Sei sama. I know that Sei sama is fond of you and that she enjoys teasing you. As such, you often find yourself in awkward situations with her. When I think of it, when I see it.. More often than not, I feel very enraged. In fact, there was more of jealously in play. Sometimes, I just felt like walking over to the both of you and land a hit on your cheeks. But I know it's wrong. Somehow, I feel as though others will perceive me to be a coward. But now.. I stand before you. And with all my heart's feelings, I want to say it. Fukuzawa Yumi.. I.. Love.. You.." Sachiko declared as she made futile attempts to wipe the blushing redness off her face.

"Sachiko sama.. I.." Yumi was again shocked in speech. Tears had begun to cloud her large eyes and were beginning to obscure her vision.

"Yumi.. May I have the honor of taking you as my sister again? Will you accept my selfish feelings?" A sniffling and tearing Sachiko raised the beads right above Yumi's head.

"Oneesama.." Yumi nodded as Sachiko rested the rosary softly against her neck.

Almost immediately, burst of cries were heard as Yumi gushed forward into her oneesama's arms. Days and days of pent up emotions were all pouring out. Yumi was both happy and relieved. She finally had her oneesama back.. Finally..

Outside of the room door, someone was gleaming with a smile.

"Yumi.. I'm glad.." Yuki smiled as he muttered the words in his breath.

----------

"Oneesama.. I'm sorry to have made you misunderstand the situation. I promise you that I will behave myself in future. And.. A-And I.. I love you too." Yumi tightened her grip on the sheets as she struggled to keep the blushing face out of the way.

"Yumi.. Welcome back.. I missed you.. Come here.." Sachiko said as she pulled Yumi closer.

"Love me…" Sachiko whispered softly into Yumi's ears as she shifted a little to the centre. With seamless movements, both were entwined in a tangle of kisses. Neither could pull apart. With flames burning in their heart, they kissed passionately and deeply.

"Oneesama.." Yumi struggled to say something but was blocked off by the array of kisses Sachiko showered upon her. The line had shifted. From the centre towards the back of her ears.. The sensation was blinding. Yumi found herself unable to control her own hunger as she lunged forwards in aggressive movements. She was holding on to her lover's embrace as a child would to a precious toy. Satisfying her urge to control the desire, Yumi slid her fingers through the long flowing hair that had captivated her for a long long time. Mesmerizing fragrance engulfed her senses. The scent she remembered was still there. It jolted pleasant memories of the past. Lust was all over her.

Sachiko had trouble keeping up with the movements of her petite soeur. She had gained the upper hand. With the constant pressure on her lips, Sachiko gave in to the assault. As their tongues slid over each other, Sachiko was beginning to find herself enjoying the pleasure. Each advance was greeted with a pleasurable moan. She had never had such an encounter before. All of her pain and weariness washed out on her. It was an undeniably great drowning experience. For a moment there, Sachiko hoped that she would be killed in love. And she wouldn't have minded it. There was no room for rational thoughts anymore.

As they filled the gaps in between them, Sachiko suddenly pulled back.

Pain seared through her back and shoulders as Yumi's hands rubbed across them.

Noticing that her oneesama was wincing in pain, Yumi stopped in her movements.

"Oneesama.. Does it hurt very badly?" Yumi asked with a huge hint of concern in her voice.

"It's.. It's alright.. Don't worry about it.." Sachiko replied unconvincingly.

Yumi was undeterred as she reached out for her oneesama's shirt.

"Oneesama! Oh gosh. My god.." Yumi gasped as she flipped Sachiko's shirt up at the back. There was a long line of bruise extending diagonally from her shoulder blades right down to the middle of her back. Specks of blood were already littering on the surface of her skin, merging with drops of sweat.

"Oneesama! This is bad! Let me bring you to a doctor now. This isn't a light injury. You may be hurt somehow!" Yumi flustered worryingly.

"Yumi. I will get my family doctor when I get home. Don't worry alright? I'll be fine." Sachiko shook her soeur in an attempt to calm her down.

"Oneesama.. Firstly, you need to wash up first. We need to compress the wound quickly after that. Come with me oneesama.." Yumi sighed deeply as she led Sachiko to the bath.

Sachiko scanned her soeur and decided that it would be best if she obeyed her. Yumi had a very persistent look on her face.

"Oneesama.. I guess you will have to spend the night here.. I am not sending you out of my sight with you in this condition. I will phone your family later to inform them." Yumi said sternly as she set the water in the bath.

'This will probably be a long night..' Sachiko thought as she entered the bath room, undressing and exposing her bare skin against the cold air.

Note: This is almost the end of the story. I guess the next and final chapter will contain all the summing up of the unfinished stuff. Maybe a bit on the other parings as well. I sincerely thank the people who have made the writing of this flick possible. With your endless encouragement, I have found my motivation to continue to write stories again.

Once again. Thank you very much! *Bows deeply* ^ ~ ^
