Thank you all for reading this
——————A Love Like Ours ——————
"AHHHH! I'm late again!!"
Akari cried out while trying to fit in her dress. Somehow I already familiar with this scene.
Akari tended to be late and always rushed. Sometime it was because she just cannot wake up early.
Sometime it's because she spent too much time on her make up or picking clothes. But most of the time, it's because both of those.
"Keicchi~~ where's the milk? I can't find it ~ Keicchi!!"
Akari shouted out the question made me sighed a little bit. I myself at that time also still in my bed. As a free writer, I don't have any reason to wake up early. But when Akari kept calling out to me, I had no choice but dragged myself towards the kitchen, opened the fridge and brought the milk can to Akari and to treat our cat some too since I know Akari will forget about it. Really, where else did she think milk was beside the fridge anyway.
But the truth is somehow, I quite glad. I don't know why but when she need me for those so little thing made me feel like I'm taking care of her, that somehow made me happy.
Then out of somewhere, near the sofa, her phone ringtones filled up the air.
But then again, Akari was too into her make up to break it.
Actually, I kinda like this part of her, she may looked alot like a sassy girl but truely, if she concentrated on something then no one or anything can stop her from doing it.
Looked at her from behind and I smiled, how many good deeds I had done in my previous life to have such a beautiful girlfriend like this right now?
Noticed me from the mirror, she looked at me with a seductive smile.
"Hey Keicchi? Can you help me with my zipper please?"
Heaven must be damn. Who could ever resist such kind of smile and look? I guessed she'll definitely go to work late this time.
"Don't mind if I do"
I replied shortly and got closer to her.
Our figure reflect on the mirror in front of us. I can devour almost every beauty line of her and to make sure this goddess in my arms are real. This is just us of today and everyday, but this is the happiness of my life...

"I'm sorry. I know it's my fault"
Akari hasn't talked to me since yesterday. She just lied there in our sofa, showed off her long legs giving me no space to sit and pretended that she's sleeping and couldn't heard what I said.
I know it's my fault that I just disappeared almost 4 days without mailing or calling her even just once although I did left her a note when I go. But then I'm a writer, I'm just going anywhere that bring me an inspiration.
A friend of mine called me that day to tell me about the new place she's just find out, Sayaka, she's a photographer. Both of us together are always seek for something that amazed us. Apparently that small island was just more than the word beauty itself.
Me and Sayaka was too eager to go and completely forgot about what we should bring along.
So when our phone ran out of battery and all we had were Sayaka's camera and my eyes to captured all the greatness of the nature before us.
Until after that, we found our way back to the small village and wait for the next ship to get us home. I wanted to get back as fast as I can though, I know Akari would be worry about me alot.
And no need to say more, Akari was furious. To the point that when I got home, she'll still there, sat in our sofa with bag under her red eyes 'cause of crying I guess.
I felt pain inside to look at her like that. She must be worried a lot. When she saw me, she's broke into tears and hugged me like she'll never let me go. After calmed her down. I had to face with her wrath.
Apparently, she didn't get any note I left on the kitchen counter which I assumed my cat must done something with it. And she has stayed at home for 3 days straight just to wait for me.
I feel guilty a lot now. I should had called her when I had chance, but then, there's always an "if" for every mistake that we made.
Right now, it's like a cold war between the 2 of us.
I kneel down in front of her face, wonder how should I say the word sorry next.
Then I saw my cat nearby lazily stood up, stretched its legs freely just to rolled back like a ball once again.
Akari and this cat is pretty much the same, hard to please and very independent on your own way but love to be pampered and taken care of.
I tried to get my cat ran into my arms. I failed.
It just sat there, looked at me with despite eyes then changed it gaze towards it's own tail.
"Look at our cat over there..
It has woken up and played so happily."
I whispered into Akari's ears
"Isn't fighting with each other is boring? Let's make up, ok?"
Then I softly lay down a kiss on Akari's lip.
Until I felt her wrapped her arms around me to pull me in closer. When we parted our for air, she murmured with tear at the corner of her eyes
"Don't you ever leave me like that again"
"I promise "

The 2nd time that we fought, everything was much more complicated this time. Apparently, this was my fault again. I wonder why it was always me, the one that made her suffered in our relationship.
I do love Akari with all that I might but seem like my habit of being nice to everyone just backfired on me.
That time when Akari was out of town for a business trip. I got a call from a friend in the state of drunkenness. I was the advisor of this girl once when she's still a student and I was still a falculty at the college, which I quitted after realized I just cannot take any bound.
Fuu-chan was confessed to me once, I did consider about it at that time but turned her down anyway. I didn't think she could be the one that made me changed. And so it ended.
Until recently when I had some jobs of writing a few thing for a newspaper. I met Fuu-chan there's and we exchanged contact. That's all. I didn't think that she would still had any feeling for me, 'cause we both different now. She's grownups and I now somewhat changed thank to the love of my life.
But apparently I was wrong.
When came to get her at the middle of the night, I realized I didn't know her address at all.
And all Fuuko did was just clinging on to me like her life depends on it.
No more choice, I brought Fuuko back to my place.
After tried to make her rest comfortably in my bed, Fuu-chan started to cry, told me she still love me and etc.. the truth is I didn't care about it much. I don't like girl that drunk and I already have Akari.
But her hold of me was really strong, even I did try but still really hard to let it go.
Besides, I was tired a lot from all the sudden awakened and dealing with a drunk girl. So I decided to just let it be and sleep on that bed. Not like anything can happened anyway.
Magic happened in a most mysterious way. The next morning I was waken by the familiar voice in max volume to find Fuu-chan in my arms and we both naked with Akari stand in our room.
Long story short, we're now separated to find a place of our own. I didn't bring much thing though, just a part of my life when I'm with her and my dear cat.
I found myself a small but warm place. It's an old, five-storey building. Down a small alley, next to a red roof. The single room apartment that have a big window faces South.
It's definitely not large, but I can't fill up the blank margin of love anyway.
Life just went on without much changed for about 6 months. I wonder if it's long enough to talk to Akari again... was it's long enough to fade away some of the misunderstanding?
Luckily, there's always an up and down in life. That's one of the reason why I still have fate in it enough with go on living without complaining about anything.
I happened to meet her again at a coffee shop I stopped by. She's still beautiful as I believed she has always been.
She sat there next to a window and talking to someone.
I chose a sit that gave me a clear view of her and enjoyed my time just sat there and look at her. Somewhat happy..
She must be the inspiration of my life. I think I have always known about it.
For hours later I guess? Her mate departed and left her alone.
Ah.. should I go there and say Hi? I wonder... For a minutes I realize that she had somewhat relaxing aura around her. I think I shouldn't intruded it again. Somewhat painful...
But for sometime later, when I was sipping on my 3rd cup of coffee that day. I found the chair in front of me shifted.
When I looked up, it's her.
I smiled with my honesty and a dumb looked, unable to say anything more than
"Hi"
She looked back at me, I don't know what the meaning inside of that look anymore.
Akari let out a sigh along with a smile and said back
"Hi"

We did have a properly conversation that day. Like friends, but I rather not use that kind of comparison.
We talked about our new life, our new place and our job. No mentioned of the past though.
Many things changed but yeah, I'm fine as long as she isn't dating anyone.
I told her about my new home. Asked her to come over sometimes when she want. It's kinda hard to find but I don't mind come picking her up whenever or wherever she was.
I don't think I can get use to the life without her again. My cat sulks almost everday since I moved out and hasn't got close to me since then.
I admit I'm very lonely, so if Akari ever felt like she's alone. Don't mind, just came here.
There's always a part of this place, waited to fill up by love.

Not so long after, one evening, when I was watching some soccer match on TV. I heard a knock.
As I opened the door, I found her stood there with a suitcase in her hand. Simply passed her baggage to me. She walked in and head towards my fridge.
I closed the door, and made way to my bedroom. At least I have to keep this thing in place first.
When I returned, I saw her stumbled over things in my kitchen. Realized my existence again, she asked with a pouted lips
"Keicchi, where's the milk?"
