Chapter 8

Natsuki gulped hard, she did not know why Shizuru was so angry, but she was really pissed. She widely smiled… there was too much smiling… she could not watch her… but her stares were filled with insanity… tonight she would be in her nightmares… Shizuru would come to her bed and… she would murder her in her sleep… she would probably remove all the knives…

Again, a fake smile. It was too bright, she could not stand it. She looked to her plate… she could not eat, her stomach was upset… and she loved ramen… for once she could eat it at home... why….? She did not want to be on a diet. She was a grown-up woman… she needed strength.

Another smile.

That was not normal… gosh… what did she do? Did she forget her birthday? No. It was impossible. Did she say something wrong? What, she couldn't remember…did she notice she broke her precious cup of tea? No, she bought the same one last week… she noticed…? No…? Yes…? Perhaps it was not Natsuki's fault but her boyfriend's… what was his name? Naruto? Mai said he looked like her. Really? No…. And the seito-kaichou likes her? That was so complicated. Also, she already had someone else… even if it was impossible… they grew up together, like sisters… perhaps she needed to date someone to forget Shizuru? That will be better for both…

"Natsuki!" The latter jumped from her chair and touched her heart.

"What! Mum! Are you crazy? You almost killed me. Don't you care about me? I almost had a heart attack!" Saeko was surprised about her daughter's reaction. She frowned and looked at Shizuru, who simply shrugged. Natsuki was Natsuki…kind, but sometimes crazy and excessive with her behavior.

"Oh, my little puppy. What's wrong with you?"

"Don't call me little puppy, you know I hate it."

"But I'm your mother so I have the right. I tried to talk with you."

"She is probably thinking about her lover." The bluenette furiously blushed. Oh no, she hid her face behind her hair. The mother smirked and Shizuru furiously bit inside her mouth. She just threw the words for fun, she did not hope for that kind of reaction.

"Who is she? Is she pretty, do I know her? She's your classmate? How old is she? What does she want to do in the future?" Saeko asked. She really wanted to know who this mysterious woman was. She looked at Shizuru, who was indifferent.

"No! Stop!"

"She's ugly with her big boobs like a cow." Shizuru whispered to herself, she looked her breasts and sighed. No, she was not jealous. Why did she hate milk?

"She's ugly?" Saeko added, and Shizuru agreed.

"No! Mother! I don't have a girlfriend!"

"So why are you upset? Because you don't have one? Don't tell me you were rejected? Who would dare to do that!"

"I'm not upset! Nobody rejected me…it's the contrary." The young bluenette shouted. She winced when she realized her own mistake. The tea drinker seemed shocked, and she lost her appetite.

"The contrary? Someone likes you? She confessed her feelings? Who? Who? Who?"

"Are you a dog with your woof, woof… I don't have a girlfriend or anybody. It's Shizuru that's interested in someone. A young boy, athletic, handsome and clever." The named glared at her best friend. This time, she would die in her sleep.

"Really? What is his name?" Kuga's mother smiled. The crimson beauty strongly held her cup of tea and she coldly smiled to Natsuki, who nervously coughed. Well, it was not her fault, Shizuru did it first. She had said she was thinking about her lover, that was not true, she only thought about her… it was so complicated…

"I'm not interested in someone Saeko-mama. Natsuki exaggerates."

"Yes totally, his name is Haruto. She asks him to help her in science." Words easily escaped.

"Really?"

"Oh my God!" Natsuki hardly breathed when her right hand avoided a knife. She nervously laughed. Now, Shizuru was angry with her. She could feel her murderous aura.

"I-IIII will take a shower…I-III need it! I smell awful!" The bluenette ran upstairs.

"Why is she behaving this way?" Saeko pondered, when her daughter run away.

"Because she is not stupid enough to dig her own grave…"

"So, this Haruto is your boyfriend?" Shizuru rolled her eyes.

"NO!"
