^Thanks a lot for your understanding, guys
Anyway, here's the next Chapter that I had wrote before the graduation announcement. I think I'll continue to write after new year. So... please be patient with me.
Chapter 26 - Part 1
*At a classroom.
Currently I was on my class, listening to the lectures, and daaaaammmn…. It was hella boring. I shifted my gaze from the teacher to the clear blue skies outside. I hoped I could be outside just sitting on the green grass, enjoying the up-coming summer, or better in Majijo with the other, or much better in my apartment with my girlfriend. Sigh…. Wonder what they’re doing right now. Or how’s Yuko-san condition today.
*Flashback, at the hospital, near the Doctor’s Room.
I sat on the benches outside the Doctor’s room, bored out of my mind, while waiting for the check-up to finish. And when I was about to close my eyes, the sounds of foot-steps reached my ears. When I looked to the direction of the sound I saw a tense looking Sado-san.
“What’s happened?” She asked me immediately as she sat next to me.
“We were ambushed by Yabakune.” I said with a scowl. “And you know that Yuko-san weren’t allowed to fight yet, so Black told us to flee while they took them out.”
Sado-san frowned even more and then the door opened and the doctor went out with Yuko-san.
“Hello, ladies,” the doctor said to me and Sado-san, and she looked towards me, “Did she just run or fight or something?” She asked me while pointed at Yuko-san with her finger.
“No for the run. As for the fight…,” I shifted my gaze to Yuko-san.
She rolled her eyes, “I just punched her once, you can’t say that as a fight.”
The doctor frowned, and she asked Yuko-san, “did you stress yourself out lately?”
Yuko-san sighed, “just the usual,” and sat down next to Sado-san.
A loud “Yuu-chan” made us turned our head towards the direction of the sound, and a frantic looking Torigoya ran in the hallway towards us, with… the rest of the Rappappa behind her.
“Shit!” Yuko-san cursed silently, and she hissed to Sado-san in a low tone, “I’ve told you don’t tell the others!”
“And I told you, they deserved to know, especially Torigoya.” Sado-san as she crossed her arms in front of her chest.
Torigoya immediately attached herself to Yuko-san, while the other Rappappa asking Sado-san and the doctor about Yuko-san`s condition. The doctor seemed to be overwhelmed by the horde of yankee high-schoolers surrounding her. All she could’ve said was only that Yuko-san’s okay. After a while, I could tell that Yuko-san pitied her, she snickered softy and said, “Girls, I’m okay, let the poor doctor go.”
After that, they moved away from the doctor, and the doctor took a deep breath and started explaining. She basically said that Yuko-san was alright, just a bit exhausted. After that she started her Q&A session with the others while my girlfriend turned to look at me. She sighed and slowly, tenderly, touched the bump on my forehead.
“It feels like déjà-vu isn’t it? What hit you this time?” She asked me as she smiled grimly.
I moved away from her touch, it’s quite hurt. “Crowbar.” I held her wrist and bring her hand to my lips, and I kissed her hand softly. I heard a low “snrk…” sound and from the corner of my eyes I saw Yuko-san smirked evilly towards me from Torigoya`s embrace. ‘Damn, I thought she weren’t looking at us. She’ll definitely use that as a blackmail material.’
Tomo frowned and said in a low volume, “go see a doctor, it looks really bad.”
“I’m okay,” I whispered back to her and sighed, “and beside… I need a bath more for now.”
“I’m sure I can help you with that.” She said with an evil smirk towards me that made my blood boil.
*End of flashback.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s been almost two weeks since the clash with Yabakune. After we got back from the hospital, we went our separate ways home and went for a dinner together in a fast-food restaurant. Of course, before we left, Yuko-san`s doctor practically threaten her that she will tie Yuko-san in the bed if she can’t take care of her own body. At that time, Sado-san told us that there’s a quite amount of drug in Bungee`s blood. It was quite a lot that the ER doctors didn’t have to sedate Bungee anymore for her operation. She said, when the doctor told her this, she immediately called Captain Takahashi, and Captain Takahashi told her to take some of Bungee`s blood for the test at the Police`s Lab, which she did and the Police`s Courier came to fetched the blood sample when Yuko-san called her.
And at that time, Captain Takahashi said it may take a few days for the result to come out, and that one of the people in the Lab, who butted in the phone conversation between the Captain and Sado-san suggested us to watch over Bungee closely. Because maybe, just maybe, she got the after-effect of the drug. It has been more than a week, but she still looked fine, well, as fine as someone who’s just got hit by a car.
Damn, that Yabakune. It seemed like they had joined forces with ex-Higa Gang, that jerk`s gang. He must’ve known that Yabakune IS our nemesis. And now, our nemesis and the police`s fugitives were in the same gang. Yuko-san said when we catch them, it’ll be like killing two birds with one stone. But, for that we need more evidences and proper timing. As for now, Yuko-san and Sado-san has been checking the documents out with Captain Takahashi whose swore that she won’t let the information of my past out. And to my irritancies, they won’t allow me to help. Saying that I already graduated, saying that I had classes to attend. Bah!!
And… I miss… my girlfriend…. I haven’t seen her again after last weekend.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
*Flashback, last weekend, at an entry line in Odaiba.
“So… why did you suddenly asked me out?” Tomo asked me when we’re waiting for our turn to ride the Ferris Wheel.
I frowned in response, I knew I was kinda fail as a girlfriend, but… not that… fail…, right? I knew full well that during these months that we’re started to… er… dating, actually we only went out for a date twice, counting this one. Yeah, I know, I’m a jerk, I should’ve took her for a date more. But what can I do? We have to be careful to not get ambushed by our enemies. And that’s why, I had always picked a location that’s quite far from Majijo`s territory, like Shibuya, or just like at that time, Odaiba.
“Why? Can I?” I asked her back in exasperation at my own self.
“Just… surprised. That’s all.” She smiled grimly, and shook her head. “By the way, why do we have to wait so long for our turn? Other peoples have already got their turn.”
I grinned, “because I asked for a whole cabin for us.” She instantly turned her head to look at me in surprise. “I don’t like getting locked up in a small space with strangers.” I explained to her. And of course, aside from the reason that I told her, I also had other reason. But, that’s for later story.
After a few more minutes of waiting, we finally had our turn to ride the Ferris Wheel. I took a seat beside her and in a flash, she already snuggled me, got me on a tight hug. I smiled and wrapped my arm around her waist. And the wheel started to moved, very slowly, towards the top.
“Ah… I forgot to tell you something.” She said while she was still snuggling me. I mumbled a “hrmmm..?” as a sign for her to continue. “Captain Takahashi came yesterday.”
“Oh.” Huh? Wait… Captain Takahashi? Why the hell that… “Why there’s no one told me anything?!” I burst out.
She sighed and kissed me fully on the lip, after a few seconds she pulled back and said, “because you had classes all day yesterday , AND you already graduate.”
“Yeah, but…” My words died out because she put her finger on my lip to shut me out.
“We can’t keep on relying on the graduate Rappappa, and you know that. We won’t be able to move forward if we kept on doing that. That’s why Yuko-san didn’t call any of you. She didn’t even call Torigoya-san. And after all, she knew that Gekikara would tell Black-san and I would tell you later.” She whined as she was slightly pouting at me.
I sighed in exasperation, she’s right off course. But, I won’t tell her that. “Alright then…,” I said in mock annoyance, “so, what did she said? The lab`s result?”
“Hem… She said, the drug in Bungee`s blood is basically the same with the ones you had. It has different effects based on how much they use though; while yours, the smaller dose, was more for having ‘fun’ thing, the one in Bungee was enough to incapacitate a person. But basically it’s still the same. And the stupid thing for our enemy is, the police already got the fugitive’s name from his fingerprints on the syringe.” She shook her head again, in amusement this time. “I’m not that smart either, but that… is just plainly stupid.”
“If they are not stupid, you think that they would be doing this?”
“Touché.” She sighed and embraced me again.
I patted her head and glanced at my watch without her knowing. ‘Strange, it must’ve started by now.’ I could literally felt anxiety started to built up on me. The main reason why I picked Odaiba and to ride the Ferris Wheel was because of ‘this’. And when I had started to fidgeted nervously waiting for ‘that’ to started, a whizzing sound could be heard, followed by a blast and a bright, colorful, light, and lucky for us, we were almost at the top of the Ferris Wheel.
She immediately let go off me and looked behind her. “Uwaaaa…. Kirei~~” She said as she looked through the window. “It’s so romantic.”
Yes, it was. We had the best view of the fireworks display from near the port and the light from the Rainbow Bridge was also visible. Odaiba truly have the most beautiful night view, in my opinion. I hugged her from the back and I dropped my head on her shoulder. “I thought I missed the timing. Thank God, I’m not.”
She momentarily turned her attention from the fireworks display to me. “Timing? You’ve planned this out?”
“Yeah?”
She gave me a scrutinizing glare and smiled teasingly, “Okay, tell me what you’ve done. What kind of mistake that you had done that you bribed me with this?”
“Nice faith you’ve got in me.” I dryly said.
She giggled and pecked me on the cheek. “Sorry, it’s just that… this isn’t like you, the date and fireworks and all. You’re not… a… romantic person.”
“I can’t be romantic?”
“You can. It’s just… kinda… weird….” And she laughed. AGAIN. AT ME!! Grrr… if she’s not my girlfriend, and if she’s not the one that I cherished the most… I would’ve punched her by now.
I scowled at her while she kept on laughing, even after she turned back to looked at the fireworks display outside the cabin. ‘Hrrrhhh… nice way to ruin the mood. Now, how can I say it when the mood already gone?’ I looked outside the window and noticed that we’re started to descend slowly. I heard her mumbled another “kirei~~” and took a deep breath. ‘Well, it’s now or never.’
“Tomo….” She turned her head to look at me after I called her. For a few second, my mouth locked, I could only stared at her, made her looked at me questioningly. My heart beat faster inside my ribcages. I glanced to the window for a while, tried to collecting my guts, and looked at her again. Straight in the eyes. “I…,” I licked my lip nervously and took a deep breath, “I….” I closed my eyes. ‘Dammit, just say it, baka!!’ I opened my eyes again and saw the worry in her eyes. Well, I didn’t want her to be worried, so, I just said, “I… I love you,” in, what I hoped, a clear voice, hoping that she couldn’t she just how nervous I was.
She beamed at me and leaned towards me, “I love you too, you already know that,” she said as she caressed my cheek with her hand and kissed me. Not the I-want-to eat-you-up kind of kiss, but it’s kinda similar with our first kiss, slow and tender.
And then, I noticed the cabin was almost half-way down, signaling that our time was almost over. I moved out from her embrace and rearranged my clothes and hair. She gave me another mega-watts smile and pecked me on the check just seconds before the cabin`s door opened.
-------------------------------------------------------------------
I smiled as I remembered our date, and when my mind registered where I currently was, I cover my mouth with my hand, but it seemed like, I was too late.
“Itano-san, mind to tell us what amuse you?” The teacher said with unimpressed expression to me.
I just stared at him and with a slight bow of my head, I said a simple, “nothing.” He glared at me for a few more seconds and went back to his preach. Here and there, I could hear the other students whispered to each other. About how I sneaked out of punishment by being ‘cute’, about how cold and unfriendly I was, and some of the guys even tried to make a bet of who’ll be able to ‘tame’ me. HAH!! They’re all stupid. Not my fault if I didn’t found them good enough to be friend with.
All of a sudden the door opened abruptly, all eyes in the class immediately turned to the door, with… a frail looking girl who wore a modified seifuku and black-green jacket and a paper bag on her hand, stood behind the door. Gekikara. She was looking around absent-mindedly while the other occupants of the room whispered “who’s she?”, “the jacket she’s wearing…”, “Q-queen Gekikara”, or “Majijo`s Shitennou?”, etc., but when her gaze met mine, she has this intense look in her eyes. ‘Damn… This is… not good.’
“H-hey… why are you here?!” the teacher said, finally out of his stupor. “G-get out!”
Geki shifted her attention to him and stared at him blankly. Her free hand slowly ascended to the side of her neck, and she tilted her head slightly to the side, stared at him for a few seconds more. The classroom filled with a heavy and tense silence. No one dared to move, afraid to irritate her, the Crazy Queen of Majijo. Geki smiled slightly and she started to bit her nails, looked down, and her trade-mark giggles soon followed. I looked around me and saw fear spreading in the classroom. After a while, Geki looked up again and stopped giggling, instead she said, “Ne… Okkoteiru?” And she was giggling maniacally again. I could saw some most of the students shivering in fear. ‘Heh… chicken… They all act big and mighty, but that’s what they all are… Chickens…’ With that thought in my, I snickered and got Geki`s attention (and the others as well) back to me.
“Shibuya…” Geki said, and she walked towards my seat on the far corner of the room. Aaaand…, the others was whispering scandalously again. This time, it was about me. It was consisted of “What does she mean?”, “Shibuya?”, “Isn’t that one of the ex-Shitennou?”, “Is it… Itano-san?”, “Eh? She’s a yankee?”, “How come we didn’t know that?”. All of this whispers irked me, and I know Geki too. Cause she was frowning and all, but she didn’t said a word. When she was only a step away from me, she put her hand on the paper bag and pulled out a cloth, a pink jacket to be exact. A pink-BLOODY-jacket that she put on my desk. The jacket, that I had given to Tomo. My heart beat faster and faster as fear and rage built in me.
“What. The Hell. Happened?” I said as I stood up, gritted my teeth and glared at her. She avoided my gaze with a guilty expression on her face. “Geki! What happened? WHERE IS SHE?!”
“…Hospital.”
I instantly fell down on my seat again, my strength left me. ‘No… who…’ “Who did this?” I asked again as my hand balled to a fist. “I’ll kill them… Who did THIS!?” Seeing her refused to look back at me and not giving the answer I needed, I hit the table, hard, making almost all of the other occupants of the room jumped in surprise. “MATSUI! ANSWER ME!!”
“No… Yuko-san ordered you to come with me.” Geki said while she patted my shoulder, and her phone rang. She answered it and within seconds, gave her phone to me.
I snatched her phone and said to the person on the line, “Yeah, Yuko-san?”, without even looking at the caller`s ID. I knew it must’ve been Yuko-san.
“Shibuya?” I knew it`s Yuko-san. “Get going. NOW. And don’t you dare seek for revenge. At least not now.”
“I have to revenge her!” I said through my gritted teeth.
“I said, not now! Get going. Now! This is an ORDER, Shibuya.”
I pursed my lip in rage, then spat a “Fine!”, cut the line and gave the phone back to its owner, grabbed the jacket and walked out of the classroom with Geki. Slammed the door behind me.
