"ARGGGH that jerk really irritates me a lot! How dare he call me BRAIN DAMAGE! I really hate him!" Miyu mumbled as she goes up in the long stairs of Saionji temple. She cursed Kanata for being such a naughty and annoying person. She always gets angry easily without even thinking that she's the reason why Kanata always got mad.
Poor Miyu she was such an idiot. She doesn't even know what's happening around her not even thinking that somebody sees her as a very special person. She was such a certified numb or dense human being.
"OH SHOCKS!!! MY ASSIGNMENT NOTEBOOK!!!!" she exclaimed as a school stuff suddenly popped up to her head. She opened her bag thinking that it was just there. Unfortunately she didn't found it, even if she took off all her things inside her bag. Truly the notebook was gone, hoping it was just left inside the classroom.
"Oh my goodness! Guess I need to look at it… AHHH I don't want to go back to school!" she shouted irritably messing up her hair due to annoyance. "ARGHH!!! I really hate this day! What shall I do!? You're really such an idiot, Miyu! IDOT IDIOT IDIOT!" she cursed herself from being such a forgetful person. She slapped her forehead and face due to annoyance.
"GAAA I need to go back!!! Or else I don't have assignment for tomorrow!" she told herself. Then she started to descend quickly down to the hundred steps of the temple. She runs as fast as she could, thinking that Kanata might saw her wondering in the street and accused her again for looking at Mizuki.
--+--
Soon she reached the school premises. She stopped for a moment and gasped for air, and then she hurriedly climbed to the stairs and sprinted over to her classroom. She slid the door open and hurriedly entered into their room. She went into her table and luckily, her notebook was just there - under her desk.
She hugged her notebook and swore to herself that she will never ever forget it anymore. After that she dashed out of the classroom and quickly went downstairs.
The school was so quiet and peaceful. It's very different in a usual days wherein the school was flooded by noisiness and unorganized students. The only thing that she can hear was the wind whistling from the open window of the corridors.
While walking she began to get terrified. She walk fast not looking at her left and right, scared of the things that she might able to see knowing that she was just the only person walking in the long wide and clear hallway. She closed her eyes while walking. Then a sudden 'BANG' made her heart leap in horror.
"Goodness! What's that!?" she shouted.
Then after that, a humming sound was heard from a distance, a sound of a crying girl - "huhuhuhu~" echoing the whole corridor.
Miyu's felt Goosebumps on her skin. She pressed and clutched her notebook close against her chest. Her knees started to shake; she can't able to take another step, knowing that she might encounter a bad spirit on her way out.
"Creep, what's going on in this school…" she said shakily.
A loud screamed was heard "AHHHHHH!!!"
Miyu screamed also. Her whole body jerked wildly almost steering her back against the wall. Sweat took rained down her body. She squirmed and chattered her teeth due to nervousness. "DHA DHA DHA DHA!!!"
She sat down on the floor, held her ears and firmly closed her eyes. She wished she didn't forget her notebook, she would not be in this kind of circumstances if she was not a forgetful person. She felt that she's now in the worst scenario of her life. A kind of feeling that she haven't experience almost from her entire life.
People said that the ghosts are just fictions, it is not true. They are just created by human imagination. But what she is experiencing now was somewhat to be called true. She began to pray, "Lord, save me… save me… save me!"
After that she earned a motivation that she needs to get out of the school as soon as possible or else she might encounter a ghost that will surely make her die.
She threw herself up from a sitting position and dashed out on the long passageway of the corridors. She needs to get out of the place, quick. She had to get out of there! She had to! She had to! There's no way to stay in that place for so long. Staying there will be great adversity.
She runs as fast as she could. She doesn't care even if the floor is slippery. Now she's on the way up and about to end the hallway, she turn right to get into the next hall but as soon she turned herself to that direction, a sudden girl in a very long black hair with a white skin complexion came out from the side room in a very high-speed move.
"KYAAAAH", Miyu screamed at the top of her lungs.

On the other hand -
Kanata and the All-high basketball player were already in the Basketball court for almost an hour, waiting for the arrival of their coach. While waiting, they do some warm-up exercise such as: stretching, jogging, 3 point shooting and lay-up, for the reason that they don't want to miss every single moment that has been wasted for a very long time staying and waiting.
After an hour, a student wearing weird glasses came in the court, running. He told the news that he had heard.
"Basketball Practice is postponed." He said panting and gasping for air. All players were surprised for a sudden announcement.
"WHAAT!?! Are you sure that you heard it correctly?" Santa asked irritably.
"Yah! I'm not kidding. Coach told me to announce the cancellation of this game. Our Principal, were so sorry for announcing a wrong date. He didn't notice in the memorandum that the game will happen next year. The principal stand corrected by the management."
"Tch! Tch! What kind of principal we have?! His head is always flood up with monkeys all the time not thinking about his students and school. He wasted our time!...... CRAP!!! What a day!!! I should be in the house with Okame-chan!" Nozumo cried in disappointment.
"Guess we need to go home now. We almost wasted so much time in here and we had a lot of things to do. Anyway, thanks for bringing the news, we appreciate your effort." Kanata said calmly.
"You're welcome Saionji-kun…"
"Now let's go home!"
All the players dispersed quickly. Some went to their respective homes, others went to computer café to play computer games, others hanged out with their friend's houses and some went into the amusement park to have some fun wasting for the remaining hours. Kanata and Santa was the only people left in the court.
"So what are you planning to do now, Kanata?" asked Santa while packing belongings inside his bag.
"Go home, of course." He said while wiping his sweat.
"Ah okay! You know what, there's a new shop in the school nearby that sells old movie records and stuff. Would you mind to come with me? I just want to check on something."
"Sorry! I had lots of things to do in the house." Kanata said.
"You had a lot of things to do? Or you should say that you're missing Miyu-chan so much, that's why you want to go home as quick as possible!?" Santa suddenly freaked.
"Oi! Oi! Oi! How could you simply conclude something like that, ha!?" Kanata said irritably.
"You know what Kanata, the time that girl came into your house, you find no time for me! Wherein, in the first place you are always there for me. I remember that we always hang out and watch movies of our favorite super hero. But now, it seems you change a lot, you're no longer like my friend, Kanata. Miyu is now much more important to you!" Santa's eyes started to get watery.
"Hey, do you want me to punch your face?! Stop acting like that. You look silly!" Kanata shouted.
"Tch! You already forgot your friend. And Miyu is now much dearer to you rather than me. Why don't you just tell me that you like her? She's not even your cousin…"
"Oi Santa! Stop talking like that! You seemed like a jealous girl! You're so annoying!"
"Huh! I don't care! But I'm just after our friendship! Friends are friends! And don't lie to me… I know you had feelings for her." Santa shouted pointing his finger in Kanata's face. "Why don't you just say it to me!!! I won't get mad!"
"SHHH!!! Hold your voice or somebody might hear us."
"See… your mad becoz I knew it! HAHAHA!!! My best friend is in love with his housemate! HAHAHA!"
"Sulk! Stop it Santa! Or else I won't go with you!" Kanata shouted.
Santa choked after laughing, "Re-really, you'll come with me?" then he coughed, looked closer to his friend and pleaded, "Please Kanata, come with me! I just want to buy something in there. Please!"
Kanata look at him in disappointment, he sighed in defeat and said, "Yah! I'll go with you!"
"HURRAY!" Santa leaps in joy. "But tell me, you like her don't you?"
"ARGHH… forget it!"

Back to the Heomachi school --
Miyu quickly closed her eyes and mumbled in fear, "Bad spirit out! Bad spirit out!" she was sitting on the floor, clasping her hands while praying. She felt the ghost was just in front of her, staring at her. She can even feel its breath and sniffed.
Miyu couldn't take any longer the pressure of nervousness and terror. With a great willpower and courage, she quickly opened her eyes and shouted "GO TO -----------?"
FIDGET FIDGET --- "Ahvs??? What are you doing in here?"
Miyu saw the girl's eyes - all red. It's visibly seen that she cried so much. Her face was drenched due to so many tears that came out from her beautiful wide eyes. Obviously she is so lonely and hurt.
"What happened to you?" Miyu asked her with a bit of weariness.
Ahvs move her face away from Miyu, another tears escaped from her eyes. She held her mouth. She sniffed, trying to control her impair feelings. Because she can't take any longer the emotions and her bereaving heart, she dashed out of the hallway, running away from the things that make her suffer.
"What's eating her?" said Miyu scratching her head, still puzzled on what's going on. But she was so grateful, because it wasn't a ghost anyway. But what she saw on Ahvs face was really a big question. What's the reason of her loneliness? What happened to her? And what makes her cry? A matter in which she didn't know what would be the answer.
She analyze the situation, she put her hand under her chin and think for a moment. "Hmm… Ahvs is crying because of… hmmm… Break up??? WOW! With Mizuki!?" she simply concluded. "KYAAAH!" she jumped in joy.
She excitedly looked at the room where Ahvs came off and saw a man of her dreams sitting at the edge of the table seemed upset. His eyes were covered by his hair dangling in front of his handsome face.
Miyu smile widely and mumbled to herself, "It's true!!! They quarreled and decided to take a break! YIKEE! It's my turn! It's my turn!" she giggled in delight.
But she should not be seen happy by Mizuki. She should act like she is so concern about his situation. So, she decided to changed her frame and look at him worriedly. She wore a fake sad face and gripped her fist in front of her chest to match up her acting style.
She entered in the room and walked slowly moving towards him. When she reached Mizuki's place, she stopped for a moment, sighed heavily and said, "Mizuki, are you alright?" She asked him - sound concern.
Instead of replying, Mizuki gasped, look on the other way and gripped his fist tightly.
"Uhm…" Miyu was out of words but she tried to continue, "Don't worry. It's fine… It's not yet the end of the world."
"Miyu, I want to be alone." Mizuki said with a bit of tone in his voice.
"Mizuki, don't say that."
Mizuki turn his face to Miyu and said, "If you're really my friend - you will understand me - So leave!" then he turned his face away again from Miyu.
"Mizuki, I'm here to help you. Remember no man is an island becoz' time is gold." A quote that escapes from her lips wherein she didn't know from where she took it. She held her mouth.
"What are you talking about, Miyu? Look, I need space." Mizuki pleaded.
"Space? You want space? You mean you want to go to the outside world?" Miyu was totally crazy.
Mizuki slapped his forehead and said, "Miyu, I'm not in a good mood listening to your corny jokes. Look at me, I'm serious. I want to be alone." He said irritably tapping his chest.
"But I want to help you. I know your hurt and you need someone to be on your side. And that is me, I'm available. I'm here for you. That's what friends are for." Miyu grinned.
"Thanks! But I want to solve my problem all by myself."
"I know every people need someone's help to carry their burdens or problems in life. And what you're doing is not good, you surely could get heart attack if you just keep that problem by your own. I can help you. Believe me…" Miyu said in a nice manner.
"Are you sure you want to help me?"
"Of course I am… We're friends right?"
Mizuki sighed and said, "Yah you're right."
"So will you tell me now what your problem is?"
"Uhm… it's not what you think it is… but I hope you won't get mad at me also."
"Why would I!? You're nice to me ever since… and I don't know how to get mad at you. After all, you're one of those special person to me… of course. I'm always here for you no matter what. Promise, close my heart!" Miyu smile blushingly.
"Really? Gee thanks!"
"You're welcome! Hihihi!" She tacked her hair into her ear and turned her face away from Mizuki, she bent down a little, bite her lips and giggled. Then she quickly faced him again and changed her mood in a more concerned look, like what she did before.
Mizuki lowered his head and said, "I should not do this before, Miyu. At first I should be true to you and to Ahvs as well. I shouldn't try to engage in this kind of relationship thinking that I might hurt her if she knew the truth about me."
"Truth about you??? Mizuki, if she loves you… she will accept who you are…" said Miyu angrily but sweet.
"But it's not what you think it is… it's a half way complicated." Mizuki sighed in disappointment. He didn't know where to start.
"Then what's the issue of yours that make things complicated?" Asked Miyu crossing her arms in front of her chest.
"Well… haaay!" he blew again a heavy sighed.
"Oh… I guess it's a matter of personal issues, right? I shouldn't ask you about it. I'm sorry…" Miyu said with a bit of sadness. But inside her head, she was so happy.
Then she mumbled inside her head, "Mizuki and Ahvs made an argument that leads to their break up and look who's with him; it's just only me… the one and only - Miyu Kouzuki - the one who loved him most! HAHAHA! I love this day! MUAH MUAH MUAH!"
She thanked the creator of the day, for allowing her to forget her notebook or else she will miss this kind of unforgettable opportunity. Then she went back her focus to Mizuki and listen to what he says.
"I guess I need to say this thing to you beforehand coz I don't want to lose you also, Miyu. You're my friend. Promise me, you'll stay and never ever leave me nor curse me for who I am."
Miyu looked at Mizuki's lonesome face, how sad he doesn't really know how much he was so special to her. Of course she will never leave him nor forsake him. She's willing to do anything for him just for the sake of love. For love, only love.
Then she answered him, "I can't promise to solve your problems, but I can listen and try to understand you, because sometimes all you need to find the solution is to have someone to remind you that, 'You can do it!'" then she told again to herself, "Maybe I should remember Kanata's advices to me. This is the best time to use it… it's my turn to shine!!! KYAAAH!! Hahahaha!"
"Thank you so much, Miyu! But you know, sometimes I choose to leave not because of selfish reasons but I just know that things will get worse if I still continue and stay."
"You mean you're going away? You're going out of the country? Was it for good or it's just a tour! Tell me!!!" Miyu asked nervously. Her eyes started to get blurred.
"No… it's not what you think it is, Miyu… I'm not going anywhere or away from this country. What I mean is that… I mean… in a relationship with Ahvs." Then he left another sighed. "I shouldn't lie to her… in the first place I should be truthful to her… Why did I do this to her and to myself?" he held his face and moaned.
"Thank God I thought you're leaving! Anyway, you know I can't understand what you're trying to say… will you please make it simple to understand… elaborate it please? Hehehe! What do you mean you lie to her? You mean you had a third party and Ahvs saw you with another girl that leads to an argument for both of you? That's why you're here and she was there crying. Is that what you're trying to say?" Miyu asked him with a puppy look on her eyes.
"Yah…something like that… but there's no third party involve… I wasn't seen by her with someone. It's just, it's just."
"It's just what?"
"It's just I told her that I can no longer love her because –"
"Because…?"
"Because I'm in love with - "
"You're in love with?" Miyu's eyes widened, hoping she's the one Mizuki's talking about, she make sure that she'll hear correctly her name, "Miyu, Miyu, Miyu" she muttered inside her head.
"Because I'm in love with a guy."
"You're in love with a guy! Ahhh okay!" she said, and then she recalled the word again 'in love with a guy.' "WHHAATTT!?!?" she shouted. She stood frozen, eyes widened, mouth opened, heart stopped pounding and all of her blood went over to her head.
"I'm a gay, Miyu! I'm a gay!" Mizuki said while stomping his right feet on the ground.
Miyu held her mouth, she wants to vomit after hearing Mizuki's shocking revelation. But she tried to control it. She almost looked at Mizuki as if he was a person who has a dreadful disease. Is she dreaming or what? Did she heard it correctly, that Mizuki is a gay? Or she was just deaf hearing the right word?
"Miyu, don't look at me like that…" Mizuki sniffed and hugged his body.
For Mizuki, it wasn't a surprise seeing Miyu shocked. Ahvs did it also, but in a freaky way. What he did was a really shocking. But he just want to be truthful to his feelings, all he needs is an acceptance, an acceptance from a friend that can understand him very well.
Now he was just waiting for Miyu to slap him.
Miyu on the other hand still on a shock mode. But she's mumbling inside her head, "You're a monster. A monster that came out from the outer space. A monster that transform to a very handsome lad and stole my heart away. A monster…. a yucky monster, a gay monster. Go to hell! You're an alien!!! "
"Alien…" she whispered.
"Alien or what… it's fine with me! Tell me what you want to say, I'll just accept it." Mizuki sniffed and started to cry. "Ahuhuhuhu!"
Miyu was still on state of trauma but she tried to fight her feelings or else she will be stagnant forever. Just to brawl her emotion, she throw a laugh, "HAHAHA!!! I can't believe this… you're joking right? Tell me? You just want to make me laugh, don't you? This is not a common thing you know! Hahahaha!" Miyu asked him with a tone of disgrace. Her lips were shaking and her brow was twitching.
Mizuki wiped his tears and said, "How I wish Miyu. I'm so sorry. I shouldn't do this to you. I know it's hard for you to accept me for who I am, but I know that a relationship or even friendship will not work when you start keeping things. Secret don't destroy everything. Lying does. That's why I don't want to make this things complicated for me anymore. I just can't hide my secrets. I can't, it's hard to pretend. It's hard, Miyu!"
Miyu was truly badly shocked and hurt. She was really out of words. All she knew, is that Mizuki will be with her forever. How could God betray her heart? How did He let her trapped in a wrong emotion? He lied to her. He always makes fun of people's feelings. What's up with him? A person like Mizuki is someone to admired and love. But what she knew right now is all a lie. How can she love someone like him? How? How? How? This is such a shame. It hurts you know! "Why Mizuki? Why? How could you do this thing to me? Why? Why oh my!" she asked inside her head.
"I understand… maybe I should learn to wait for you to accept me. That's all I need Miyu. Acceptance is all I need."
"You know what Mizuki, girls requires honesty in every relationship, because they don't want to live on lies. Girls rather choose to be dumped than being cheated." Miyu said without life.
Mizuki lowered his head. "But you're my friend Miyu, will you accept me for who I am?"
Miyu can't able to answer it. She was still in a shocked form. She doesn't know how to answer that question.
"Anyway, I'll leave you that question. I believe decisions are the hardest things to make… especially when it's a choice if you should accept a person or not. But for me, life comes once in a lifetime, so I want to make the most of it. God didn't give us everything to enjoy life but He gave us life to enjoy everything."
Tears fall from Miyu's eyes. How could he able to include the name of God in his dialog. She can't believe that a man of her dreams was a gay and saying things like that. He's not the type of person that will surely love her in return. There's no reason to expect that he will be with her. He lied to her. He lied. She's hopeless. Mizuki is an idiot. He let his charm be wasted by that damn feeling of gayness. What a failure!
Mizuki's head bent down in disappointment and said, "I'm really so sorry Miyu, I shouldn't do this things to you. Forgive me, Miyu. Forgive me."
Miyu sighed trying to control her tears. She wiped her face with her hand and said, "I-its f-fine! Good thing you say what you really wanted to say and I like the way you became true to yourself. I guess I should understand you better, coz' we're friends, right?" Streams of tears flow down again on Miyu's cheeks. It hurts to know the truth.
"I'm so happy that you accepted me, Miyu! I'm so happy! I want to hug you! Can I?" asked Mizuki cheerfully
"Of course, why not!" she was badly hurt.
Mizuki hugged Miyu tightly, he was very very happy that there still people like Miyu that accepted him for who he is.
A burst of tears decant again from Miyu's eyes. She can't able to control her tears anymore, so she weeps silently. It's time to say goodbye to a person whom she loved most. The only thing that she can do is to be a nice friend to him, without expecting any return.
"Mizuki, does your sister Mikan knew this already?" she asked him as they pulled apart wiping her tears again.
"Yah… and she freely accepted me as I am."
"Oh good thing! Wow! Hahaha! Well… I'm so happy for you! Ahm.. so… what are you planning to do now?" she asked while sniffing.
"Well… maybe I should learn to forgive myself first and also to apologize to Ahvs for lying to her." Now his voice was now sounds like a silly girl.
"Oh yah… that's good! It's the best thing to do!"
"Hahaha!!! Well… but it will be hard for her to accept me…"
"She'll surely understand."
"I'm hoping…"
Then they both chuckled.
"Ahm, so… I need to go now, Mizuki! See you tomorrow. Bye!"
"You're going? Okay, Bye Miyu-san. Thanks for the acceptance and understanding. Bye!" he waved goodbye to Miyu like a beauty queen. He also gave Miyu a flying kiss.
Miyu almost vomit but good thing she's already out in the room.
--+--
She's now outside the school premises when she felt the need of shouting.
"WAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH"
What a pestered day for Miyu. She almost broke her tonsil for shouting and screaming after knowing Mizuki's shockiness revelation.
"WHO INVENTED LESBIAN HA!? WHO?!? WHO!?! TELL ME, people around the woooorld!!!! If I saw that person invented that stupid feeling… I'll surely kill HIM!!! This is so absurd. AHUHUHUHU… I want to die! I want to die… AHHHHHH! OH GOD!!! I WANT TO DIE!!! ------- I hate you MIZUKIIIIIIII!!!"
--+--
Ahvs: Well, I guess the greatest thing that we must learn in life is – 'Never invest too much emotion on somebody', especially when it comes to loving someone. Because if you do, you will end up hurting yourself.
To give and not to expect in return, that's what lies in the heart of love.
- Its trulalu my dear friendship so please R&R and tell me your churvaness, oki doki! (I'm not good in gay language, hahaha!)
