Hey guys!

So here I am presenting another chapter of The Fateful Encounter! I'm sorry that this was a short chap, but I promise that I'll make it up... I'm so happy just because of 27 reviews! Please keep of the good work! I just want to say that I read every single review. To WishingUsuiWasReal, I will try to make the chapters longer. If I had a short chapter, I'll make it up with another long one.

To those of you who is interested, I started another story, A Change Of Heart.

Anyways, enjoy the chapter!

Thanx,

Chapter 8: Ayuzawa Misaki

Usui was bored. Completely bored. He stared out hung his hand out the window and poked his head out. The girl with golden eyes was... swirming in his thoughts. He smirked at the thought of her and remembered the same golden eyes eight years. No, impossible. She can't be her... She couldn't.

The girl whom he crashed into a month ago was so... interesting. Usui felt something he has never felt before. He was somewhat... attracted to her? No, that wouldn't be it. He thought she was interesting. No one has ever treated him that way. Or even attempted to punch- no, scratch that, kill him.

His hands automatically reached the leather notebook the girl owned. He flipped through the pages and skimmed through it.


My favorite flower is gypsophila. Why? No reason. They look like the stars, mother once said. She showed me stars, one night. We were in the garden and we just lay there, peacefully. I lay beside mother's warm body and she pointed to many constellations. My favorite was Sagittarius.


Usui smiled at the page. How interesting... Most girls like roses, irises, sunflowers, lilacs, orchids... but this girl likes what? Gypsophila?


Today was Suzuna's 12th birthday. This month, I squished some money out just to buy her a cake. It was a chocolate cake. I was such a pig to buy chocolate... However, someday I would like to get her one of those exquisite Sultan Golden Cakes or Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence. Oh I wish Suzuna could get a taste of one of those...


Usui raised his brow. Why does she sound like she has tasted a Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence before? Those things cost about $14,500 US dollars.

He was suddenly confused. He flipped back to some earlier pages. As he was carelessly flipping a photo fell out of the first page pocket. He held the picture firmly and stared at it. It was a picture of a women with bright golden eyes, just like Misaki's. It was her mother, he was positive. Her raven hair was tied neatly into a bun and she wore... quite an expensive dress. Usui was even more confused now. How can such a commoner have such an expensive dress?

He shook his head and landed on some page in the begining.


Monday Scheldule

1. Get daily newspapers to the Kokana neighborhood

2. Get Suzuna's lunch ready, get to school

3. Shift at Cindy's

4. Break (10 min. -EAT DINNER)

5. Shift at Central Gas Station

6. Shift at Suki's Ramen Shop


Usui was impressed by this girl's capability, however, he was also slightly worried for her. Don't work too hard...

He continued to flip around until he found some interesting passages. He was soon absorbed in a commoner's diary.


Boys at my school are getting on my nerves so badly! They're all just so arrogant or stupid that I can't even describe it!


He read some recent passages.

Yes! I finally got into Seika!


Today, I met a total perv. He was so annoying and creepy! I was positive that he was blind because he crashed right into me and killed Minako's bike! i thonk he's some kind of undefined alien...


Surprisingly, I made some friends at Seika... Sakura and Shizuko. They seemed nice.

Oh gosh, how can girls in my school be so charmed by these stupid guys? I mean one's a crazy food stuffer, one's a creepy computer freak, one's a member of a not-so-god-band-that-only-stupid-girls-will-love, and another one's a loner, I think...


Shintani was bugging me today... And I overheard something I shouldn't have heard. Although, I did give that Kanou a piece of my mind.

Kuuga is crazy. A narcissist. He thinks every single girl out there will fall on his knees. I mean, really? Dude, you're not going to stay "charming" forever. Someday when your an old grandpa, who do you think will listen to your stupid old people band?


Usui laughed at Misaki's view of his friends. He decided to read the first page...

It was blank. Usui was wondering why she left the first page blank but read on.


Japan is quite beautiful. Minako currently lives in Tokyo with her daughter, Suzuna. Suzuna was quite emotionless, but Minako explained that she was in an accident a few years ago which had damaged her facial muscles. Suzuna couldn't really express her feelings, but she was a really charming girl. She also had golden eyes like Minako. I'm glad I get to be sister.


Usui was quite shocked. Adopted? He sighed since Ayuzawa Misaki's mystery was still revolving in his head. It was getting on his nerves to not know anything. He closed the diary since the more he read, he more he wanted to know. He felt different with Misaki. Her mystery was just so deep and you could probably sell your soul to know more about this girl. Certainly, she isn't some commoner. Who are you, Ayuzawa Misaki?

Usui found himself staring at the soft handwriting on the second page.

I am 鮎沢 美咲, Ayuzawa Misaki.

He gave a last curious glance at the neat printing.

She wrote in English... Is she not Japanese?


Somewhere in Shibuya...

A girl walked out of the cafe as the the door bell rung. She had a huge, satisfied grin on her face. She stretched out her arms and took in a deep breath. Her raven hair was tied up in a high ponytail with a few strands escaping. Her honey eyes scanned the cafe once again.

Maid Latte... I'll see you on Monday. I will come not as a costumer, but an employee!


Well people, here's the short chapter. I'm sorry for the short chapter and I'll make it up. I promise! Just need to kill off some history homework and some ugly equations...

Anyways, this chapter was really sucky since I kinda had a hard time writing it...

But like it or not... Please review! It gets me fired up to update!

Thanx,
