I'm really sorry for the delay, many things had happen for the past two weeks and I just couldn't update that time. But I'm now done with the third chapter. Finally.
Honestly, I find this chapter a bit disappointing, in my opinion. I don't know to you, maybe you might like it as well.
Well, anyway enough with the talk, here's chapter 3. Please enjoy.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Chapter 3 “WHAT?!” We all exclaimed in shock earning stares from the other students in our class, including those who are passing by the hallways.
“NyanNyan, how could you?” Yuko whined, wrapping her arms around Haruna’s waist and burying her face in her chest. Haruna, on the other hand, pushed Yuko’s face away from her chest and said with a loud voice,
“Where do you think you’re touching? Don’t touch me. You pervert.”
“And here I thought I have a chance with the guy.” Tomochin mumbled under her breath that I, in fact, heard it.
“What?” Haruna probably heard it too but didn’t seem to have caught it really well.
“I didn’t say anything.” Tomochin quickly replied afraid of being caught.
“NyanNyan, you can’t do this to me.” Now I can see Yuko pouting at Haruna. “How can you date a midget like him when you already have me?” She said almost in tears as I frown at her confuse, after calling Kai a midget.
“He’s not a midget!” Haruna protested. “How can you call him a midget when he’s taller than you by about four, five inches? And he has the same height as me.” She reasoned. Good point, though I wonder why Yuko called Kai a midget in the first place. “Besides, I don’t recall being with you in the beginning.” She added, like a knife piercing through Yuko’s chest. She’s now knocked out.
“Are you seriously going out together?” Mari-neechan asked with a serious tone.
“Of course not. Why would I? Kai’s my cousin and I only said that so Yuko would stay away from me. But it looks like that it’s not working at all and had gotten worst.” Haruna said while still pushing Yuko away from her as Yuko kept saying ‘Don’t leave me NyanNyan.’
“He’s your cousin?!” We all exclaim in unison. Seriously, there are so many big surprises today; first the boy that I met this morning in the train is actually a transfer student in my class, second Haruna says that Kai is her boyfriend and now she’s saying that he’s her cousin. Crazy day isn’t it?
“Weren’t you listening? And is that all what you heard from my sentence?” Haruna asked annoyed from all the questions we’re throwing at her.
“So that means I still have a chance!” This time, instead of muttering to herself, Tomochin said it at loud with a happy looking face.
“What?” Haruna asked with a confuse look.
“Nothing.” Tomochin answered as I shook my head in disbelief. “Though, I will have to say that your family has really good genes. What I meant is, you’re very beautiful like a model, Riku is really handsome, Kuu is really cute and Kai is like both combine; very cute and handsome. You don’t find good-looking people anywhere, including us, but you guys are like wow.
“Of course we do, and I have to thank our parents and our grandparents for that.” Haruna said with a grin. “Back in middle school, when Kai was still living here in the neighborhood, we use to fake date ‘cause I was being confessed all the time and got really tired of it.” She added and continued. “Since everyone knows that onii-chan and I are related, so he’s out of the question. No one knew that Kai and Kuu are my cousins, so I can ask them to be my pretend boyfriend. But Kuu is too much of a player for my taste, so my only option is Kai, who also has the same problem as me. But he left to study abroad in America. I was really shock when he came back, I didn’t even recognize him with his blond hair this morning, until he introduced himself in front of the class.”
“I’m sorry for being off topic on your families’ good genes, but I was wondering where did the guys go when they left the classroom?” I ask and I notice that Haruna’s face became serious. What was that about?
“Why do you want to know?” Haruna frowned and her voice also sounded a bit harsh and really serious. I’ve never seen this side of hers, I don’t know what this is about but it looks something really serious.
“I’m just asking.” I reasoned.
“If you’re just asking, I don’t know where they are now, but all I know is that they’re discussing about something.” Haruna answered as she shrugs nonchalantly. Now I’m curious, they’re discussing about what?
“About what?” This time it’s onee-chan who asked my question.
“That’s for me to know and for you not to find out. In other words, it’s classified.” Haruna replied quickly.
“What do you mean?” Tomochin asked curiously.
Haruna let out a sigh of exasperation and answered Tomochin’s curiosity.
“It’s a private discussion, it’s not in any of your business, only the guys and I knows about it, not even our parents know about this and we don’t want anyone to get involved in it either. Are you guys done asking questions? And can we drop this topic; I’m not supposed to say anything about it.”
By the tone of her voice, it sure doesn’t sound like a joke. This is really suspicious and they’re definitely hiding something important… I think… and I’m seriously curious about what’s this about, just like what she said; it’s not our business and I shouldn’t ask any further, so maybe I should just drop it.
Silence started to fill around our tables and the tension started to rise until Yuko had broke the intense silence that was building up.
“NyanNyan, you sounded really smart just a while ago.” She said while the girls and I were staring at her and shook our heads disbelievingly.
“Just because you guys call me an airhead doesn’t mean that I’m actually an airhead and stupid.” Haruna said as she gives a slap behind Yuko’s head.
“ITAI!”
* * * * *
Meanwhile, three young men are on the rooftop, leaning their backs on the wall while the shorter one is sitting on the ground and they began talking.
“When did you come back?” Riku asked the young blond.
“Since yesterday.” The blond gave his older cousin a short answer.
“When I heard the news this morning, I knew that it was you. You killed a member of the Mono family and not to mention, you killed the third son of the head of that family.” Riku said scolding.
“Good start, isn’t it?” Kai let out a scoff as he smirks, feeling proud of himself as he says, “You should have seen him beg like a dog. Pathetic.”
“Are you crazy?! Don’t you know what you’ve gotten yourself into?! Revenge is not the answer and I’m pretty sure ‘they’ don’t want you to do this…” Riku was about to add more scolding, but was cut off by an already hot-tempered Kai.
“THIS IS THE ONLY WAY!!!” Kai yelled as he tries to calm himself down and spoke again, his voice filled with pain and sadness. “It’s the only way for me to have peace and for ‘them’ to be in peace. They killed them Riku, my family, our family.” He said sadly.
“I know what you mean.”Riku said sincerely as he leans down and sat next to Kai while he wraps his arm around his younger cousin’s shoulder to comfort him, knowing very well that he’ll do the same thing if that ever happen to him.
“You and Haruna may be a Kojima, and Kuu may be a Minegishi, but you guys still have the Takahashi blood running through your veins.” Kai began to say. “And for me to cross the path towards peace, I have to destroy a humongous boulder that’s blocking my way.” He added and continues. “And I want you guys to help me turn this boulder into dust until nothing is left.”
“You can count me in, nobody messes with our families.” Kuu said as he punch his fist into his palm while Riku just let out a sigh; knowing very well that he cannot change his cousin’s mind, as he smiles saying that he’s also joining in.
“So when do we start?” Kuu asked with an evil grin forming on his lips.
“Well, I’m waiting for my order to be delivered which is in two-three days top. And when I took Tobita’s wallet after his death, I saw an invitation for all Mono members to another mafia family or something next week; we can do a little something to the Mono residence.” Kai said as he remembered taking the middle age man’s wallet the other night.
“Sounds good to me. I can’t wait, since we’re also a part of the mafia since we were born.” Kuu said excitedly still grinning as he looks up to the clear sky.
“Kai may have died once, but I’ll show them that Kai has been raised from the dead.” Kai said as he smirks.
* * * * *
Atsuko’s POV It’s almost the end of lunch, obviously, everybody had already finished their lunch and the girls and I had been talking about random things after that awkward silence we had earlier.
After a few minutes later, I realise that the guys had come back to class and they’re now walking towards us, except for Kai who was actually jogging towards us; specifically towards Haruna.
Suddenly, Yuko is standing in front of Haruna with her arms spread using her body as a shield and said,
“You! Stay away from my NyanNyan!” Haruna rolled her eyes while Kai raised an eyebrow as he pushes Yuko out of his way and took Haruna’s hand into his and said,
“Kojiharu, I need to talk to you. Alone.” Haruna stood up from her seat and let herself being dragged by Kai, away from us.
Riku and Kuu had finally joined us while Yuko was sort of crying as she calls her ‘NyanNyan’ and trying to get where Kai and Haruna is, but failed when Kuu took hold of Yuko’s collar to prevent her from going there.
“Where did you guys go?” Mari-neechan asked.
“Rooftop.” Riku quickly answered. “We were just talking.” He added.
“About what?” I asked curiously with my eyebrows furrowed.
“None of you business.”Kuu replied coldly and grin which is creeping me out as hell; it is somewhat scary for some reason.
Haruna and Kai came back from their little talk; I wonder what they were talking about. Probably the one that Haruna was talking about earlier but never told us.
All of a sudden, the bell rang and all the students went back to their own classes while my classmates and I went straight to our seats, waiting for the second and last bell to ring. When that happens, our teacher came inside the classroom and did the usual routing and began our afternoon classes.
* * * * *
The bell rang once again and our afternoon classes were over. When the teacher left the classroom, Kai ran out of the classroom hurriedly.
“Why is Kai in a hurry like that?” Atsuko asked Kuu after seeing the blond boy running out of the classroom like lightning.
“Oh. He just has an appointment. You know; monthly check-up.” Kuu said, ready to leave also. “He’s going to the Takahashi clinic which is also the Takahashi residence which also own from the Kojima and Minegishi family. Since he hasn’t been here for a while, it’s best for him to do his monthly check-up.” He added.
* * * * *
An hour later, at the Takahashi Clinic/Takahashi residence “Well, you check-up is done, Master.” Said a deep female voice.
“Thank you Sayaka, Sae.” Kai thanked his two childhood bodyguards. “It’s a good thing you guys are still alive, if you had died that day, I don’t know what would happen to me.” He said and added, “I’ll be in my room and please don’t bother me until supper.”
“Very well.” The two female bodyguards/ female butlers said in unison as they bow at the master.
After getting up from their bows, they started talking as they clean up the place and getting ready to prepare supper.
“I can’t believe it. Who ever thought that Mi- I mean Kai would change so much.” The short hair bodyguard said as almost slipping the name of a Takahashi member.
“I know; that kid’s body was showing signs of change before he left Japan. But now, seeing that kid’s body a while ago it has changed completely.” The long hair bodyguard said as a matter of fact with a serious voice.
“You mean…?” Sae began to say something but was trailed off.
“Yes.” Sayaka replied, knowing already what the short hair girl was asking.
“Seriously?!” Sae asked in shock earning a nod from the latter.
