I wake up feeling a little dizzy. I wonder why? Ugh, I hate morning like this. It makes me too lazy to get up and go to school. Oh, god. Why can't something good happen in this morning to take my mind off this dizziness?
"Onee-chan. Riku is worried, you haven't woken up yet."
I hear Riku's voice from behind the door. Thank god for answering my prayer. With a newfound strength I get from Riku's words, I manages to stand up. So fictions are right, you can get powers through someone's words. Now I can't see them in the same way I used to mock them anymore.
"I'm coming, Riku. Thank you."
I open the door to go to wash my face. Outside my door, Riku is waiting for me with a wide smile that can outshine anything.
"You're welcome, Onee-chan! Now Riku is going to change."
No no no. I can't let Riku change his clothes alone! I have to change his clothes!
"Just wait for me, Riku. I'll change you."
"But Onee-chan seems not fine. Riku doesn't want to trouble Onee-chan more than she could handle."
Oh, seeing those big round black eyes makes my heart warm. Why are you so cute, Riku! Not that I'm not grateful to you or anything. But Onee-chan need her daily dose of your cute body first time in the morning. I'm going to be sick if I don't have that!
The dizziness comes back.
God, I hate my life.
"Onee-chan!" Riku shouts in concern.
"Thank you for your concern, Riku. I can do this on my own." I don't want to appear weak in front of you.
"If Onee-chan says so. Riku is leaving then," he runs back to his room.
I go to wash my face. After that I checks the refrigerator to see if there's anything I can cook up. Hmm, seems like the stock is running low.
"I'm sorry, Riku. I don't have the ingredients to make you lunch box!" I shout to Riku who's on his room. I can't hear the reply because he isn't shouting. Good, Riku. A cute boy like you shouldn't shout.
With that, I cooks up some breakfast that I can salvage from the low ingredients. When I finish cooking, Riku is eagerly waiting on the table. We eat in silent. Riku has good table manner, courtesy of me.
Both my parents have gone to work already. I sometimes wish they can be here with Riku.
After we finished our breakfast, I go to change while Riku goes on his way to school. While I want to dote more of Riku, he actually doesn't want his friends to know that he enjoys that. So he requested to go to school alone.
I was too flustered to reply so he accepted the silent as yes. My heart fluttered when he said he enjoys it. Riku is truly my most precious thing in the world.
With the headache still making me lazy, I go to Kuoh Academy.
There's nothing strange happening in the class. Just the occasional rumors my friends' likes to talk about, the Perverted Trio's stupidity, and the homework I haven't done. Shit, I thought my headache would've gone when I'm in school.
Clutching my head in pain, I excuse myself from my friends and go to the infirmary.
I feel like someone's watching me, or is it just the side effects of the headache? I also feel like I'm supposed to remember something. Ah~ I don't care. I want to sleep already…
Good thing I arrives at the infirmary before I pass out, because I goes straight to the bed, ignoring the nurse calling my name.
I wake up feeling refreshed. Ah, that was one good sleep. I feel like my head's not going to burst anymore. I don't see the nurse anywhere, must be in the Faculty Office or somewhere else.
I see a glass I can use for a water, and move myself to grab it. Gulped gulped. Ah~ what a nice feeling, having your dry throat refreshed with a glass of water.
When I put down the glass, I hear the door opened. From behind the door, someone enters.
"Ah, Sens-" I stop my words because the one who enters is not the nurse. The one who enters the infirmary is Hyoudou Issei. Member of the Perverted Trio. What is he doing here?
"Hanazono-san," he calls me, "are you feeling alright?"
No, I'm not. With you here, I'm feeling scared. I'm afraid you'll do your pervert things to me. Like tearing off my clothes… feeling up my chest…
Why the hell am I going so graphic about it?
"No, actually. What are you doing here?" I can't see why he's approaching me, and asking my wellbeing. We never talked before, it's not like I'm close to him or anything.
The looks on his face though, it changes from concern to forlorn. I don't understand why… well, not like it's my concern. He's one of the Perverted Trio, no one can understand their stupid way of thinking.
"No, it's nothing important. I'm just going to ask something."
"Well then, what?" I say a little harsh. Don't waste my time, dammit. Riku is alone on his home now!
He winces, before his face changes into that of a desperation.
"Do you remember about my girlfriend, Yuuma-chan?"
"A girlfriend? Really? Haha, despite being delusional, that's quite a good joke you just share, Hyoudou."
"I see… haha…" he bows his head. "Well then, I'm sorry to bother you."
"You'd better be."
And with that, he leaves the infirmary.
Though I retorts with that, I can't help but feel pity to him. Why? Why do I feel like that? I don't understand. I don't understand why am I pitying him. Maybe it has something to do with this nagging feeling deep down inside my heart that I can't seem to grasp, or maybe it's not.
One thing is clear though.
I saw tears on his face before he left.
A/N: Yes! Yes! I did it! Enjoy!
