Stupid Me
“Get out of here! Now!”
That is my beautiful girlfriend, Maeda Atsuko… and yes, she is chasing me out of here, her apartment. We’re having a huge fight last night. You said I am dumber than big ben, how do you make that comparison? I’m too quiet when we argue, at least the clock would make some noise. Right now, I am sitting here, enjoying my last cup of coffee.
“I will leave after drinking this cup of coffee” I said coldly.
Want me to leave? I already packed my bags ahead of time. But I’m still waiting if she will apologize and admit her faults. It’s not my fault at all… She is standing there crossing her arms, in front of me, waiting for me to finish this cup of coffee. I hate to admit but her face is so cute when she is mad. She is running out her patience and angrily walking to my direction.
“Get out of my apartment now, Takahashi Minami!”
“Let me enjoy this coffee peacefully”
Yeah, I am drinking this coffee slowly. I don’t want to leave yet. Why doesn’t she understand that I don’t want to leave?
Sigh… This stubborn girl… just apologize and I will pretend like nothing happened. You don’t need to chase me out… we’re living together for three years already, we’re having so many fights before... but you don’t need to chase me out this time. I am always the one who apologize even if it’s not my faults but why can’t I just let it go this time? Why am I acting like this? Why can’t you understand me? Because I’m stupid, I will always end up forgive you.
She grabbed my left arm and pulled me off the sofa. She pushed me toward the door harshly.
“Okay, okay, I can walk by myself” I released my arm from her hands and picked up my bag.
She opened the door to send me out. The wind was breezing cold outside, the road was covered by thin snow. My footsteps were printed on the snow as I walked by. I am walking in slow pace like a snail, my foot felt so heavy as I walked.
“Stop right there!” suddenly her voice came out from behind.
I smiled and turned back, as I thought, she wouldn’t be that cruel to chase me out. I know it, she will call me back. She walked toward me and smiled, “This is my cup” she said as she took away the cup of coffee which is still in my hands since this morning. After that, she went back into the house and slammed the door loud.
“Fine! If this is what you want! I leave!”
Kicking the snow under my foot, I walked away. Walked into the city street, the morning air is still fresh. Taking a break on the bench, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath to relax myself. The river across the street is still beautiful as always… This scenery hasn’t changed a bit. I opened my bag and took out a disc, a DVD without its box. This is the movie she likes the most and this riverside where I am right now, is her favorite scene in the movie. We used to take a long walk at the riverside just like the couple in this movie. She’ll definitely call me when she found out I took the DVD. Looked at my watch, it showed 11:45 a.m. Why haven’t she called me? Maybe she hasn’t founded out the DVD is with me?
“Let’s take a lunch first~” I put the DVD back into my bag and walked to a restaurant.
----------------------------
After having delicious meal, I went back to the place and have a sit there. She still hasn’t called me yet. Let’s just wait a little more longer. I walk along the riverside and enjoy the scenery, remembering the memories we share together. It’s so cold here, walking by myself without your accompany. I remember the time we’re talking, laughing, playing here. You’re a naughty girl, really. You always trying to push me down to the river, leaving me soaking wet to the way home and then you prepared the hot water for me and cooked the delicious katsudon for me.
How many rounds I’ve been walking here? Surely, time is walking so slow without you by my side. I looked at my watch every minute. Right now, everything in my world is getting slowdown. You keep running inside my head, making a mess inside me. The sun is setting down now and you haven’t called me. I checked my phone every single minute and everytime I saw the screen, it’s your smiling face…
I’m walking here in your favorite scene but you’re not in the scene I want you to be. Frustrated, I walked back to the bench and put down my bag. I put my phone on top of bag, facing me, myself. Standing in front of my phone, looking at your face… I feel like I am going crazy.
“The sky is turning dark, why haven’t you asked me to return your DVD?” I scolded my phone, pointing it with index finger.
“Why are you pretending to be so stubborn? What is the problem?” I crossed my arms and pouted.
“If you don’t call me, then I’m not going to chase you back!” I shouted at my phone and this caused the people around looking at me with suspicious eyes. I scratched my head and bowed to them to apologize.
Ten minutes passed as I staring at my phone. Still no reaction from it, not ringing. I grabbed it and poked the screen, at Atsuko’s nose. “Listen carefully, I have never loved you! Why would I miss you?!”
Am I really going crazy now? Why go crazy? It’s logical but I can’t explain it. Only that my mind is still not clear yet. Closing my eyes, taking a deep breath, I let myself relax under the moonlight. The moon today is so big, so bright… While staring at the moon, your face appeared on it all of sudden. I shook my head and rubbed my eyes, now I am having hallucination?! Oh man, I really went crazy.
The road is silent… the clock tower is ringing. It’s 01.00 a.m. now… Did I spend whole day sitting here? I even skipped my dinner! I can’t believe I don’t feel any hungry till now… Well, I am full of you in my head. Yeah, I still love you and actually I miss you so much. Stretching my arms and legs, I picked up my back and walked away.
“I am very giving, I’m not as stingy as you, I will forgive you” I smiled and walked away, “Please don’t be so pleased”
===============
On the other side
Atsuko is getting off from her bed, “I can’t believe I slept since this morning until now” she looked at the clock, showing 01:00 am.
She opened the curtain and looked outside. The moon is so big and bright, she is staring at the moon and suddenly Minami’s face was shown up on it. She immediately closed the curtain and pouted, “I’m not thinking of you! Why would I thinking of you?!”
She walked downstairs toward the kitchen. She opened the fridge and took out leftover brownies. The brownies remind her of Minami, the moment they shared the brownies together. They were playfully prevent each other to take the first bite and ended up with the cake all over their face. Without realize, Atsuko is smiling but then she put an emotionless face and threw the brownies into rubbish bin.
“Taste bad!”
She turned to get some coffee. Without realize she made two cups of coffee. She always makes two cup of coffee every morning to share together with Minami. Then again, she poured the coffee into rubbish bin and also the cup, Minami’s cup.
“I don’t like coffee!”
Atsuko walked to the living room and switched on TV. All the dramas were playing about story of a couple having fight or quarrel. She switched off the TV and went searching some DVD to watch. She smiled as she found her favorite DVD, she could watch it over and over again without getting bored. When she opened the DVD box, the disc inside is missing.
“Did she steal my DVD?” Atsuko screamed and jumping on her sofa, “That jerk!”
She picked up her phone and dialed Minami’s number. But then, before the pressed the call icon, she threw away her phone on the sofa. “Why should I call her?”
She picked up and then threw her phone away over and over again, struggling to call Minami. The sun is rising now… Atsuko finally decided to call Minami, to get her DVD back. Before she pressed the call icon, her door bell is ringing.
“Who the hell is that in this early morning?” Atsuko looked at the clock and it showed 08:48 am.
She lazily opened the door and surprised by the person standing before her. It was Minami standing in front of her with a board hanging in front her chest, saying – ‘Searching for owner to adopt this poor doggy’
Before Atsuko can react, something is moving behind Minami’s coat. It looked like a pair of ears and then the puppy head popped out and looking at Atsuko with incredible cute puppy eyes.
“Kyaaaaaa!!” Atsuko screamed and pulled the puppy in her arms, rubbing her cheek on the puppy’s head.
“This is why I don’t approve you to adopt a puppy” Minami pouted and looked down, “Your attention will be on it and you’ll ignore me”
“I love you sooo muuuccchhh, Minami!!” Atsuko wrapped her right arm around Minami’s neck and pulled her closer for a kiss. She pressed her lips hard on Minami’s cheek.
Minami pouted and withdrew herself from Atsuko, “I’m leaving”
“Stay!!” Atsuko held Minami’s arm.
“You don’t need me, you need the puppy only” Minami complained.
“I command you to stay” Atsuko commanded.
“You don’t love me… You didn’t even call me either”
“I do want to call you but you are a step ahead of me” Atsuko explained.
Minami stayed silent and got Atsuko anxious, “Okay, I’m sorry. Don’t leave”
Minami smiled and turned to face Atsuko, “I am very giving, I forgive you”
“I know~~ because you love me too~” Atsuko said playfully.
“
Cih… Don’t be so pleased” Minami said and leaned forward to kiss Atsuko.
“Woof!!” the puppy was getting in the way and licked Atsuko’s lips.
“Ooopps~ you got a rival from now on” Atsuko patted the puppy’s head who is still in her arm, “She loves me too~”
“WOOF!!” Minami barked at the puppy and glared at it. The puppy is waving its tail happily.
Atsuko was laughing at the two of them and then pulled Minami inside the house, “Okaeri~ Minami~~”
“Tadaima, Atsuko. Don’t ever chase me out again okay?”
“Hai~~!!”
“Cook me katsudon! I’m soooo hungry right now~~”
Atsuko giggled, “Do you want to have me instead of katsudon?”
