Chapter 2: The Perfect Date?
This is so troubling. My darling Tsukasa will be here any moment and I'm not yet ready. Why on earth did mother not wake me? The worst thing about this is that I had no time to "take care of business" this morning. It's so frustrating having this…part. How on earth do men deal with such a thing in the morning? I ignored my morning stimulation and picked out my outfit for my date. I chose the sun dress that I wore to a social event in Karuizawa. It was the perfect outfit for such a beautiful day. I wonder what Tsukasa will be wearing. Just the thought of Tsukasa wearing a cute outfit just to impress me is just to adorable for words. I took some underwear from my dresser and proceeded to the bathroom to take a shower.
In the shower, I sang my favorite song, Starless Night by Olivia. I love that song so now more than ever. Ah, being in love this much should be a sin for I may become addicted. I'm so nervous about today. What if Tsukasa leans on my shoulder while were sitting on a park bench? I doubt I would be able to keep my composure for very long if that happened. What if at the end of our date, Tsukasa desires a *gulp* a kiss…? Oh, those sweet lips. To kiss them would be as floating in the air as the sun warmed my entire body with its embrace. But alas, having such thoughts, even if innocent and romantic, causes me to get "frustrated".
I swiftly "dealt with" the fruit of my thoughts and ended my shower. I put on my bra and panties and stepped out into the hallway. "OH! Um…hi…Y-Yuki-chan…" Tsukasa stuttered. I immediately jetted back into the bathroom and locked the door behind me. She saw me! She saw me! I've never been so embarrassed in my life. I dropped to my knees and cried. My love saw me for what I am. I cannot face her. I cannot look to my darling Tsukasa and not feel disgust in her gaze. I'm so ashamed. Why was I cursed with this for? I never asked for this…this "thing". I hate it…I HATE IT!
Morning turned to afternoon and afternoon to evening. Tsukasa and I never went on our date. I sat on my bed in my room thinking of how to deal with the ridicule that is to come. "Miyuki dear, may I come in?" mother asked. I was silent but mother entered anyway. "Miyuki, I've made some tea if you'd like some." said mother. My countenance was blank as an artist's canvas but I felt tears falling none the less as I looked to mother. "You can come down when ever your ready sweety." Said mother and with that, she took her leave.
The darkness of midnight crept into my room as I sat in my room. "She won't want me anymore…I will be no greater than disgusting in Tsukasa's sight…" I told myself as I realized that my tears would no longer come. Is this what despair feels like? If anything, I could feel nothing. Not the breeze of my ceiling fan, nor the soft touch of my bed sheets. I was numb. It was like I fell into the ocean. It was like drowning but I would not die.
I looked at my clock and sighed. "Tea does sound good right now." I said to myself. I put on my pajamas and slowly trudged downstairs. I saw that the light was still on in the living room and kitchen area. I suppose mother has not gone to bed yet. The sent of oolong tea caressed my senses as I got closer to the living room. As I turned the corner into the living room my eyes widened to the sight in front of me. Tears once more falling from my eyes, I was at a loss for words. My heart leapt in my chest as a small smile of relief graced my countenance.
"Hi Yuki-chan…are you ok…?"
