Chapter 71!
LCD- I'm not sure what you mean by: The Sequel. Care to explain?
After reading a review, I don't know if I should end this story or not. I know I took a poll about a month or so ago and most people wanted me to contiune it.
Although the "main plot" has been pushed aside. I'm not sure if more people dislike where the story has been the past few weeks.
I tried to add the "main plot" to this part, but I still need a better grasp on what people want.
If there is a big grip about the story being too long, then I could easily end it very soon.
I could also continue what's been going on for the past few Chapters.
If you can PM me or leave a review (for anonymous readers) that'd be a big help.
I am writing for you, the readers, so I want to know what you think.
Thanks for your time and I hope you enjoy the Chapter.
Akiza got up and looked at the calender.
"Finally," she said.
Today was her Birthday.
She got up and got dressed.
She then headed for the kitchen.
However, she was stopped by a black and yellow colored hair man.
"Hello Akiza."
He gave her a peck on the cheek.
"Happy Birthday."
"Thanks," Akiza replied, "Your Birthday's coming up soon too."
Yusei smiled.
"So what do you want me to get you?" Akiza asked.
"Nothing," he replied firmly.
"Oh come on Yusei..."
They started walking to the kitchen.
"There must be something you want."
"Nope."
Akiza stepped in front of him.
"What is it?" she asked.
She looked around and leaned in close.
"If it's making out, I'm fine with that," she whispered, "Just keep the clothes on."
"Nope. Just staying at home and having a day to relax is all I need."
He moved around her and walked away.
Akiza crosses her arms and frowned.
"What's he hiding?" she thought.
She spotted a newspaper.
She opened it and started looking through it.
The twins then rushed by her.
"Hey Akiza," Leo said.
"Happy Birthday," Luna finished.
"Mmph humph," Akiza replied.
She then smiled at something.
Late, Akiza and Yusei were coming home from a long day at college.
"I can't believe that one teacher," Akiza whined, "She's so picky and annoying."
"Well, you'll get a teacher like that once a semester," Yusei replied.
Yusei pulled up to Martha's house.
Akiza picked up her heavy backpack and put it on her back.
They both headed inside and set their bags down on the floor.
Akiza plopped herself onto the couch.
Yusei comes a few moments later and puts a arm around her.
"Did you have a good day so far?" he asked.
Akiza thought about it.
"No."
Yusei looked stunned.
"Well," he said, "We'll go out to eat tonight and you'll feel better."
Akiza and Yusei sniff something.
"What's that delightful smell?" Akiza asked.
Martha took something out of the oven.
"Mmph. Is that my cake?" Akiza asked.
"Yes, but it isn't frosted yet. You'll have to wait until it cools."
Akiza turned to Yusei.
"I have something we can do while we wait," Akiza said.
She gets up and pulls Yusei's arm.
They go to the garage and Akiza has Yusei sit down in font of his laptop.
Akiza turns it on and Yusei watches her go to a website.
"Here you go," she says.
Yusei looked at the screen.
"Job application?" Yusei asked, "I thought I was going to be Santa again this year."
"Well, you still can...just for me."
Yusei rolled his eyes and smiles.
"Well, what area should we apply for?"
"Lets try cashiering," Akiza said, "It's easy and there aren't any requirements Plus I read they're in high demand this year."
They go and start filling out the applications.
Once they were done, Leo and Luna came home.
Yusei went up to greet them and Akiza confirmed the applications.
"I sure hope this works," Akiza thought.
She read the ending.
"You will be notified within a week if you are accepted."
"Perfect," she thought.
She headed upstairs to greet the twins.
Leo was drolling over the cake.
It was white, with white frosting and rainbow sprinkles all around.
"Well, lets see if you're still hungry after we go out to eat," Martha teased.
"I'll be hungry! I'll be hungry!" Leo cried.
Everyone laughed.
They headed out to restaurant.
Akiza got a strawberry cheesecake as her "free Birthday desert."
When they came back home, everyone was full from dinner.
Except Leo.
"I want cake! I want cake!" Leo shouted.
"Wait a few hours," Martha groaned, "I'm stuffed."
"Me too," Yusei said.
Akiza and Yusei sat down on the couch.
"Why don't we get Yusei and you to try on your gifts?" Martha asked.
_The other side of town_
Akiza's mother and father sit quietly at the dinner table.
They sighed and looked at the calender.
Akiza's Birthday was circled on it.
They had been busy since their last encounter.
_Flashback_
Akiza and Yusei sped off into the distance.
"I have to find a way to get through to her," he said.
"But when?" his wife asked.
"What do you mean?"
"The senate will start soon. You can't go after her. You don't even know where she lives."
The senator sighed.
"You're right. The next break will be close to the holidays. I'll just have to wait until then."
_End Flashback_
While the senate still ran for another month, less work was giving Akiza's father more time to think about how he could reach his daughter again.
"Can't you look up where she lives?" his wife asked.
"No. It still says she lives here. Plus, I don't feel safe going to the Satellite and asking."
They both sigh.
_Back to Martha's_
Akiza came out of her room, with her new dress on.
Yusei was waiting for her, in black suit.
They looked another another.
Akiza ran up to Yusei and gave him a hug.
"Oh Yusei. You look just like I remember! All handsome and business like."
She kissed him.
"He's pretty hot," she thought.
"You look nice too," he noted.
Akiza's dress hugged her curves nicely.
"Oh man! She's so...hot," Yusei thought.
Akiza hugged him again.
"I can't wait to go out with you sometime."
"And it might be sooner than you think," Akiza thought.
"Why don't you guys get back in your normal clothes and we'll sing Happy Birthday?" Martha suggested.
They nodded.
Once they sang and Akiza blew out the candles, everyone had a small piece.
Except Leo.
"Leo. Were you even full from dinner?" Luna asked.
"No."
Luna rolled her eyes.
"You could've had something more."
"Nah," he said, "It would've been like really expensive for a little side dish or something."
"Well, I'm happy you were thinking about us Leo," Martha said.
Leo grinned happily at his sister.
"But you should've told us if you were still hungry."
Leo's smile went away and now Luna was giving a smile back.
"See. Once again I was right," Luna teased.
Leo sighed.
A few days later, Akiza still hadn't gotten a call back for the job application.
Suddenly the phone rang.
"I'll get it," Akiza called.
She rushed to the phone just before Martha could.
"Hello? Yes. Yes."
She smiled.
"Okay. See you then. Bye."
"Akiza what was that about?" Martha asked.
"Oh. You'll see when Yusei's Birthday comes around."
Martha gave her a confused look.
Yusei's Birthday was a few days later.
At school, Akiza was in a surprising good mood, even during the class that she hated.
Yusei wondered what was up.
When they got home, Akiza couldn't help herself.
She sat down on the couch.
"Yusei. I don't have a Birthday gift for you..."
"So? I didn't have one for you," he noted.
Akiza rolled her eyes.
"Well, I still have one anyways. I learned yesterday that we will get a job interview in a couple of days."
Yusei smiled.
"That's great," he said, "Although, it's no gaurentee of a job."
"I know," Akiza said, "But I thought we'd get to use our new clothes and it was a good surprise."
They smiled.
However, they didn't know that there was a bigger surprise that in store for them.
A/N: I hope I'll get good feedback and thanks for all your help!
