Chapter 6
Kanon was now at home with yuka and she was wrapped up warmly in a blanket.
“Here, drink some hot chocolate.” Yuka gave kanon a warm cup.
“Thank you…” kanon took a sip out of the cup.
“It’s warm…” Kanon said in a whisper as a tear threatened to fall from her face.
“Non-chan, can you tell me what happened?” Yuka asked.
“…”
“I promised to protect you and I don’t intend to break that promise. Please tell me kanon…” Yuka held kanon’s hand.
“Yuka-nee… i… I think I am in love… but, it hurt’s… this is the first time I have felt this way…” Kanon said very softly.
“… I know…” Yuka said.
Kanon looked up at yuka and was surprised that yuka knew that she was in love.
“H-how did you know?” Kanon asked in shock.
“We figured out that you like kumi. Is that her that you are in love with?” yuka said as she took the cup from kanon.
“…un…” Kanon nodded and blushed but a sorrowful look soon overtook her face when she recalled the scene that happened.
“…non-chan… What did you see? Please tell me why you are so upset. I will protect you.” Yuka said as she wrapped her arms around kanon.
“Yuka-nee… I…”
*Flashback* Kanon POV
I was walking back to class to get my bag when I bumped into kumi on the way. She seemed fidgety when she saw me and rushed out from my sight. I wonder why she was so fidgety with me… To be honest, My heart flinched a bit in pain because this is the first time kumi had ignored me.
Thinking back to this morning, I knew that it must be something to do with that letter that kumi received. I had a weird feeling, a feeling that I don’t want kumi to meet that girl…
Therefore, I ended up following kumi. She walked fast and she was heading towards the equipment room.
Could it be a junior in her tennis club? I sighed a small sigh and continued following kumi.
I was right, she went into the equipment room and I hid below the window so that I could get a clear view on what was happening.
That was weird; there was no one in the equipment room. I peeked over the window slowly and kumi was pacing around the room.
Ah! She took something out from her bag. It was that letter! I was right! It really was about that letter that kumi came here for.
Why did she take out the letter so suddenly?! Oh… someone was walking into the equipment store!
“Y-yagami senpai…” That girl who just walked in said as she lowered her head and I could see the blush on her face.
“E-erm a-are you K.Y?” Kumi stuttered a little. Why did she stutter! She must be nervous… Why is she nervous!! Questions were running through my mind.
“…” The girl nodded her head but did not reply.
“O-oh, y-you wanted to talk…?” Kumi was rubbing her hands as she showed the letter to that girl.
“Y-yes…” K.y spoked.
“e-erm… what is your name? I think it’s rude of me to just call you K.Y” Kumi said and scratched her head. Is this the first time she has been approached by a girl? She was so nervous… W-well, I am nervous around her too…
“M-my name is kizaki yuria…,Y-yagami senpai…”
So her name is Kizaki yuria… She is a very cute girl… Even cuter than me… I don't see any reason why kumi would reject this girl…
I felt the pain in my heart again. The thought of kumi getting together with another girl made my heart ache.
I looked away from the window for a moment because I didn't want to see that nervous look that kumi has now.
This wasn't right… I am not suppose to peek at someone’s confession…
Even though I said that, I couldn't help it but peeked through the window again.
“S-so kizaki-san… w-what did you want to talk about?” Kumi stuttered again.
“Y-yagami senpai… I”
“Please just call me kumi. It feels weird hearing someone calling me senpai haha” Kumi managed to swallow her nervousness and smiled coolly at yuria.
“H-hai, K…Kumi.” Yuria blushed even harder.
She is really very cute… I can’t be compared to her… Even though jurina and churi always told me how cute I was, I didn't really feel that I was that cute. I was not satisfied with myself.
Yuria was different. Her gestures, her shyness, the way she walks, that way she speaks, her voice, it was all cuter than me and I believe that kumi would accept this relationship… I mean, who wouldn’t… Yuria is like an angel…
“K-kumi.” Yuria took a deep breath before continuing
I could see that kumi was listening attentively. She was really kind, just like I thought she is. The kumi that I love… Now, she was facing another girl… not me…
The atmosphere in the room was heating up because of the awkwardness between the two. I could feel it even from here.
“K-kumi, I… I LIKE YOU!” Yuria shouted suddenly and kumi skipped a bit.
“E-eh?” kumi was shocked, her expression, her big eyes that widened, her mouth slightly opened up and she stepped 2 stepped backwards.
“I… Ever since you helped me when I was in need, I fell in love with you. You are the one I always think about and when I saw you I made up my mind to confess to you…”
…She is not only cute she is courageous too… I don't have the courage to tell kumi that I love her… I have never felt this sad before… it’s all my own fault that kumi is meeting up with this girl…
I couldn't bear to see this any longer…
The overwhelming feeling that I have when I see kumi in the equipment room getting all tense up and nervous because of another girl… I can’t stand it.
“I… I came here to meet you because I felt like you were courageous enough to write me this letter therefore, I should come meet you to tell you that…”
Eh? Kumi said something? I didn't hear it… I was preoccupied with my own thoughts. The next thing I knew, I heard a loud thump.
“Ahh!”
W-what happened?!
I was surprised by the loud sound.
The next thing I knew when I snapped out of the shock, kumi was lying on top of yuria…
My heart hurt so much that I started running. I felt something hot and warm running down my cheeks. Why kumi… Why were you on top of her… I guess, she accepted her as her girlfriend…
I couldn't get the negative thoughts out of my mind. I just couldn’t…
Kumi…
End Flashback and pov
“…nee-chan…” Kanon was asleep while wrapped in the warm blanket and her heartbreaking memories.
“Just sleep kanon, it will be ok tomorrow…” Yuka gave a small smile before patting kanon’s head and headed to her own room after washing the cup. She was sure kumi would never let kanon down. Kumi wasn't that sort of person who would play around.
The next morning.
“…un… kumi…” Kanon slowly opened her eyes to the morning sun.
“… kumi…” Kanon felt the familiar heat rising to her cheeks when she murmured kumi’s name. However, it was filleld with sadness this time.
Kanon stood in front of the mirror and looked at herself. She felt that everything was her fault. She witnessed the scene. Kumi was on top of another girl…
Kanon took one last look at the mirror and decided to try and forget kumi. However, the moment she took a step to the window, faces of kumi filled her head.
“… I can’t forget…” Kanon cupped her face with both her hands and let out a deep sigh.
She decided not to open the curtain in case kumi was there. She was not prepared to face kumi yet.
She went to school earlier so that she could avoid kumi. They were in different classes so she wouldn't have to see kumi. Not unless kumi went looking for kanon.
The ride on the train triggered her memories with kumi and kanon just stared into space, trying her best to clear her mind.
Kanon reached school earlier than usual and was in the classroom alone. She laid her head on the table and took a short nap.
Not long after she fell asleep, kumi appeared at kanon’s classroom. She found it weird that kanon would not reply her texts and that she had went to school without her. She wanted to ask kanon about it and here she was, outside kanon’s classroom.
Just as she was about to step into the classroom, a mysterious girl with long curly hair and a sweet smile walked passed kumi and whispered: “return her to me.”
Kumi spun around as soon as she felt someone brushed past her but the person was gone in a flash.
“… What was that…” Kumi felt a chill ran down her spine.
“Kumi, what are you doing here?”
Kumi turned to the voice and saw jurina and churi standing behind her.
“Ah! Jurina, churi, I came to speak to kanon.” Kumi pointed at the petite girl who was sleeping.
“Kumi… I don't think now is the best time to talk with her…” Jurina looked at churi and churi nodded.
“W-why…?” Kumi could sense the seriousness in their tone.
“B-because… class is starting soon! K, bye!” Jurina pulled churi and dragged her into class.
“… “ Kumi was not having a good day today. Why did they treat her so coldly today? And that mysterious girl… who is she?!
Kumi took her time to get back to class and thought about various things.
“Rena! Yuka!” Kumi walked into class and greeted them.
“… morning…” Yuka and rena said in a soft voice and looked at kumi with a serious look.
“… Er, is there something on my face?” Kumi was clueless about what had happened.
“kumi, we want to ask you something.” Yuka said seriously.
“Go ahead and ask me anything.” Kumi said.
“Yesterday… What happened yesterday after you met up with that K.Y girl?” yuka looked serious.
“E-er…”
“What exactly happened?!” yuka asked again.
“Yesterday, I reached the equipment room and waited for awhile. That girl’s name is kizaki yuria. Apparently I had saved her once which I don't remember I did… and she confessed to me.” Kumi said.
“That’s all?” Rena asked. This time, without her melon pan.
“What do you mean?” Kumi asked with a confused look.
“what happened after the confession?” Rena said.
“I told her that I had someone else that I liked and she accepted that.” Kumi said.
“Then why were you on top of her?” Yuka asked.
“H-how did you know!” Kumi’s eyes widened.
“… Kanon saw everything…” Yuka shook her head.
“K-kanon what?! Nothing happened between me and yuria! I swear!” Kumi was shocked and tried to clear her name.
“I know that! But kanon saw everything with her own eyes! She cried the whole night! I cant let her stay like this! You better explain yourself to her!” Yuka half shouted at kumi.
“I-Is that the reason why she didn't reply my text’s and didn't wait for me to come to the school together?! I swear! I didn't do anything! We just fell when we were going out of the equipment room!” Kumi shook her hands.
“This is bad! I have to talk to kanon! Please yuka help me!” Kumi pleaded.
“I know kumi. That’s why I wanted to get the facts right before I help you. Kanon is my one and only precious sister and kin. I cant let anyone hurt her… please explain everything to her kumi…” Yuka tapped kumi;s shoulder and grip it.
“Of course! I won’t do anything to hurt kanon! Never!” kumi said in a hurt tone.
‘So… the pain I felt yesterday was kanon’s pain? She cried the whole night… She cried the whole night because of me… kanon…” Kumi could not concentrate at all in class and ended up spacing out for the rest of the class.
Class ended and yuka had texted jurina and churi. She had explained the situation to jurina and churi. They will lead kanon to the cross road where they will separate and when kanon is alone, yuka will pretend that she had something in school that she left behind and would ask kanon to wait for her at the station. Then kumi will go and talk to kanon.
“ok! Let’s do this. Kumi, please make her smile again.” Yuka said and gave a smile to kumi.
“I promise!” Kumi said with her smile too.
Kanon had walked to the station as usual with yuka and the group. The proceeded with the plan and kumi was waiting for kanon to be alone before she came out of her hiding. The time finally came.
“… Kanon.” Kumi called out to kanon.
“K-Ku-“ Not finishing her sentence, Kanon made a run for it. She ran as fast as she could.
“Kanon wait!” Kumi chased kanon with max speed.
“Don't follow me! Leave me alone!” Kanon Continued running.
“Kanon! Wait! Please let me explain! Kanon!” Kumi caught up with kanon after a few minutes and grabbed her wrist.
“Let go of me!” Kanon tried to pry open kumi’s hand so that she will loosen her grip but to no avail.
“Kanon! Please listen! Nothing happened between yuria and me! What you saw was an accident! We just fell and I landed on top of her! Please believe me kanon!” Kumi said in between breaths.
“You don't have to explain to me! I am just your friend! What you do with other girls is not my business! Let go! Why are you chasing me!” Kanon’s feelings finally burst out of control. Tears had started forming in her eyes again.
“Kanon! Listen! True, she confessed to me! But! I didn't accept her confession! Because there’s someone else that I like!” Kumi half shouted to get her voice across to kanon.
“I don't believe you… * Sob*” Tears had started to fall from kanon’s eyes. Her heart was hurting again and she could not hear what kumi had said.
“Kanon! Believe me! I clearly told her I have someone I like and I can’t accept her feelings because that someone is really special to me! No one can replace her!” Kumi said desperately, explaining it to kanon.
“It doesn't matter * Sob* We are just friends! Nothing more! You don't have to explain yourself to me! * Sob* “ Kanon was choking on her words.
“You wouldn't be crying if you didn't care… Kanon… I have to tell you this. There is nothing going on between yuria and me. The only one that has been in my heart all along is … you.” Kumi loosen her grip on kanon’s hand and a red mark could be seen because of the strong grip.
“W-wh, You are bluffing… you are saying this to make me believe you… * sob*” Kanon continued crying.
“Please believe kanon… don’t cry, it hurts me to see you cry… I like your smile. I love your smile.” Kumi hugged kanon gently and continued: ”Ever since I saw you, my eyes have been following you. The way you walk, the way you skip around when you are being teased, and it’s all in my memory, my heart. I couldn't stop thinking about you.”Kanon’s cries slowly subsided with that gentleness that kumi gave her.
“When I found out that you were yuka’s sister, I knew it was finally my chance to get to know you. If I miss it, I will regret it for life.” Kumi stroked kanon’s hair gently while hugging her.
“This is the first time I have felt this way, the need to make you smile, the heart to protect your smile, it has always been my wish to hug you like this. I can finally say it out. I love you, kimoto kanon. You are the only one that makes my heart skip like this. The only one who will light up my day with just a small yawn of yours. Everything about you makes me feel warm everyday. I love you! I love you!” kumi tightened her hug and felt kanon hug back.
“… * sob *” Kanon started crying again.
Kumi was startled because kanon was crying uncontrollably.
“D-don't cry kanon, I am here now, I swear I won’t meet another person again unless you are with me. I will tell them that you kimoto kanon is my girlfriend. Kanon, will you be my girlfriend?” Kumi pulled back from the hug to look at kanon’s face.
“D-don't look, I am ugly now” Kanon wiped her tears off her face.
“You are so cute even when you are crying hehe” Kumi pinched kanon’s nose.
“So, will you be my girlfriend?” Kumi said as she wiped the tears off kanon’s face.
“…un…” Kanon nodded with a blush. This day has finally come. Her dreams had finally come true.
“Non-chan~” Kumi said sweetly and looked into kanon’s eyes.
“..???...!!! “ Kumi surprised kanon with a kiss right on the lips.
kanon eyes widened at the soft touch from kumi’s lips. She closed her eyes after recovering from her shock and savored every moment of the kiss. Her first kiss from her first love.
Minutes passed and kumi finally parted from their kiss.
“Non-chan~” Kumi smiled happily and called kanon’s name.
“h-hai” kanon blushed and looked at the hands that kumi was holding.
“I won’t let go of you even if you want to run from me” Kumi smiled and gave another kiss to kanon.
“I won’t run, I won’t run away again.” Kanon smiled her dimpled smile and returned the kiss.
The new couple held hands and went back to the train station where yuka was watiting.
“I see you patched things up, and even better than before.” Yuka smiled sheepishly at the two.
“N-neechan,I am going out with kumi now.” Kanon couldn't believe that all this was real.
“Non-chan~ I knew this day would come. The two of you have been in love since a long time ago. It’s good that you finally realized your feelings.” Yuka patted kanon’s head.
“Nee-chan Thank you.” Kanon gave yuka a big hug.
“Oh by the way, kumi, someone left this at your desk after came to the station early today.” Yuka passed a letter to kumi.
“… another letter?” Kumi opened the letter.
“…”
“What does it say?”yuka asked.
“It’s the same person again. I have been getting some weird feeling that someone in class is looking at me. It may be this person. She may be in our class!” Kumi said.
“I wonder what she want’s from you.” Yuka looked at kumi and added: “tough to be popular huh, you even get haters HAHAHA”
“Hey! Stop joking! I am not popular at all…” Kumi looked at the letter again with a heavy feeling that something is going to happen and it is coming soon. Her grip on kanon’s hands tightened a little and she felt safer when kanon squeezed her hands back. With a smile, the three went back home.
