Chapter 6
Haruka is clinging her partner's arm and walked on the pavement, Michiru and Ultraman are walking normally. It's day 2 since the ultras have their holiday from the Land Of Light.
" Haruka, You are clinging me too tight." Seven said.
" Because I miss you, Seven san. You promised to stay with me for 5 days, right?"
" I know Haruka chan."
" These days I cried alone without any comfort, Michiru, Sets and Hotaru were not with me, I just wanted you to hug me."
Seven had never seen a girl be that weak, especially Haruka. He knows Haruka is a strong, brave sailor senshi before they were assigned to finish their mission.
" Are you alright, Haruka? You're not like your own self."
" Seven san…. I made you lose your job… I made your King mad, And I said bad things about you…." Haruka said with sadness.
" Haruka, Stop thinking about this." Michiru puts her hand on your shoulder.
" Michiru, I'm just worried if I fell in love with Seven san, whether your King would find out about this."
" But you know Seven would stay with you, he promised you to treat you better, even though he need to return." Michiru soothed her.
" I would be fine, The King won't spy on me and my brother."
" You sure, Seven san?"
"I'm 100% sure, Haruka."
Haruka smiled to the taller figure. "Since you will stay with me for 5 days, I'd like to take you to shopping." She said.
"Shopping?" Ultraman asked.
"Haruka said she wants to buy something for herself. You mind coming, Ultraman?"
"I can come, Michiru."
The four head to the shopping mall and began their first day.
" Me and Ultraman go to the ground floor and check out some appliances, Seven, Look after Haruka." Michiru said to the taller figure.
" No problem."
Seven and Haruka took the escalator to the female clothing section, there are assistants standing in different areas on the floor, observing at the customers whether they need help.
" Haruka, You want to buy some female clothing?"
" Yes, Seven san. I always wanted to have a chance to take you to the shopping mall."
" There were a lot of clothes."
" I've planning to buy some dresses for Michiru and myself."
" You wear female clothing before?"
" Did you forget I wore once before? When we first date?"
" I forgot, It's been a long time."
" Why don't we go and search for some clothes, Seven san?" Haruka smiled.
The two of them were choosing dresses to see which one is the most suitable.
"Seven san, this dress is so cute!" Haruka exclaimed when she grab a white dress with flowers on it."
"It is, Haruka chan."
"Usually, Michiru was busy on performing violin in the orchestra, so she can't stay with me to choose clothes."
"Are you happy now? Haruka chan?"
"Yes, Seven san. I'm happy that I can feel how's it feels like to hang out with a man."
"Hey, isn't that Tenoh Haruka?" A man's voice spoke.
When Haruka turned back, she noticed it was her classmates, they were in the same class before in High School.
"Uh….hi." Haruka stuttered.
"Haruka, who is that silver being?" Student #1 said.
"Is he your boyfriend?"
"N…o…No!"
"I'm just her bodyguard." Seven replied.
The two male students were surprised to hear the "fact". Even Haruka doesn't understand why he lied to them about he was her bodyguard.
" If she's your protector, then why you don't have a human face?" Student #2 asked.
" I am. I wore this suit for protection. If there were some monsters out there, I could use my powers to protect her."
" Haruka, since when you know this bodyguard?"
" Actually, it was 3 months ago, I applied protection from a company, if anyone is in trouble, then he would protect me." Haruka said.
" Weren't you with Michiru san? You are always with her."
" Michiru have something to do today, so he followed me."
" I see, your bodyguard seems well-equipped."
" Of course. He has a lot of powers."
"What are you doing with your bodyguard, Haruka?"
"Just buying clothes for Michiru."
"I see."
"Take your time with your bodyguard, Haruka!" Student #2 said.
"Bye, Haruka!" Student #1 said.
The two students bid farewell to Haruka and the red figure.
"Seven san, What are you talking about?"
"If they found I'm your boyfriend, then your classmates would doubt that whether you are cheating on Michiru and told her about it, plus, we don't have much time left, Michiru and my brother are waiting for us. Please choose it quick. We have to meet them soon."
After a few minutes, The four gathered to the lobby near the exit of the shop. Haruka chose a plain blue dress with flowers, and a pair of white sandals for herself; Michiru chose a white dress, a thick blue jacket and a pair of black sport shoes.
" Haruka, you bought a pair of sandals." Michiru said.
" And you bought a pair of sport shoes."
"Michiru told me she wants to try some new stuff besides wearing sandals."
"I feel like I need to change my look a bit so I chose this." Michiru said.
"Haruka, are you happy today?"
"Yes, Seven san. What is your plan for tomorrow?"
"It's up to you, Haruka."
"Should we go now, I think we can continue our trip tomorrow. It's almost night."
"OK, we'll plan tomorrow."
