Anyways, thank you for the update! :heart:

i'm totally torn! :(
gomen ne minna-san!  :bow:
this chapter's short but i'll be posting the next one asap.

The Sweetest Taste
Chapter 8


To: Tomochin

Sorry, lots of office work lately
I'll make it up to you, chiyuu..
I promise! (^з^)

From: Tomo

-

I took a deep sigh.

"Why the sad face?" Sae spoke to me, she noticed I'm looking at my phone.
"You should be looking happier by now, since you guys are finally together."

"It's not like we're together together. That isn't clear yet between us." I answered.

"She said she loves you, right? And we know you love her. So what's unclear about that?"

"I know but... why do I get this feeling like we're back to square one?"

"Don't think too much, Tomochin. Maybe she's just really busy."
Sayaka said tapping my shoulder.

"Well, she told me she's having some family issues right now. I understand that but..."

"Hey... just give her time." She advised me.

"I-I guess you're right..." I tried myself to agree.

Days have passed since that night I slept over her place. Seeing each other became lesser and lesser lately. I have a feeling that our relationship now's even worse than before. Or maybe.. I'm just missing her.

A group of guy customers came. Their faces look familiar. They were those guys I shouted at before, protecting Tomo. I immediately hide in the kitchen. I don't want them to see me.

"Irasshaimase!" Sae and Sayaka welcomed them.

"Hey, I remember the two of you! You're from Philip's welcome party."
One of the guys recognized Sae and Sayaka.

"Yes, we were there. May we take your orders?" Sae asked.
They ordered a whole cake for a take-out.

"So you guys work here." He continued the conversation.
"Are you also coming to Philip's wedding?"

"We're not actually close friends. But our cafe owner might be invited."
Sae is still talking to them.

"Poor guy, ne? He's already been engaged to someone even before his birth."
Another guy said.

"What do you mean?"

"Didn't you know? He's getting married to someone he hasn't even met yet."

"Rich people these days still do arranged marriage, huh."
The third guy commented.

"Yeah and based on the news, he's going to marry an heiress of some big company here in Japan."

I can hear their conversation.
I knew Philip-kun came back to Japan to get married, but I didn't know it's an arranged marriage.

"Now that you mention it.. I heard it's the Kasai Co. Ltd."

K-Kasai?? Did I just heard it right?

"Excuse me but... is that company related to automotive interior designs?"
Sae asked curiously.

"Yes. How did you know? Do you also like cars?"

"Not really. I just remember a friend who works in that kind of company." She answered.

Is Sae trying to mean that Tomo works in that company? I remember at the Disney, she told me she works at her family's business. The company name they mentioned can already tell.

"So desu ne.. Well, if you happen to be interested, feel free to test drive one of my cars."
The guy smiled at Sae.

"No, she's not interested. And here's your order. Do you need anything else? Sir?"
Sayaka's voice is sure scary.

"Ahh, nothing more. Thank you."
Then the guys finally left the cafe.

"I knew it! Tomo~mi is really a rich girl! She has an amazing car, not all people can afford to buy that."
Sae sounds really interested on Tomo's car.

"That not the real issue here, Sae." Sayaka said.

"Hmm, are you mad because I talked to them?"
Sae looked at her again like with puppy eyes.

"No! That's not what I mean either!"
Sayaka blushed just a second. Then she signaled Sae to my direction.

They both looked at me.

"Are you okay, Tomochin?" Sae asked me with so much concern.

"Look... we're still not sure about what we heard. Why don't you ask her yourself first?"
Sayaka is trying to get my hopes a little higher.

I feel dizzy, everything's happening so sudden. If she's getting married, why isn't she telling me? Is she just playing with me? So we're back to this way again, waiting for another to say the truth. I thought we could finally be honest to each other.

"Why don't you visit her on her work? Since she's the one who makes surprise visits on you before. Then, it's your turn this time." Sayaka suggested.

"Sayaka's right! I'm sure she'd be happy to see you there. Like you were, when she visited you."
Sae thinks it's a great idea.

Me, I don't know if that's a good idea. Half of me don't want to go because I'm so scared to know the truth. And the other half of me wants to see her again because I so badly miss her.

So in the end, the other half of me who wants to see her won. I went to her work place. I brought some cupcakes I made for her. The building is not hard to find, it's huge and quite famous. I arrived at the main entrance, Kasai Co. Ltd, I read the name. I never thought her family owns such a big company. I realized that there are many things I still don't know yet about her. I'm getting more afraid but I still took the risk. I went inside and asked if there's a person named Kasai Tomomi works in their company, and the receptionist confirmed. So Tomo really works in here.

I arrived at the floor where the receptionist directed me to go. I searched for her office and ended infront of a door which says Director's Office. I was about to knock but I heard footsteps going outside. I immediately walk away and hide from a corner. Then I saw two people went out, heading to my opposite direction. They both look like high class professionals.

Wait, aren't those Tomo and Philip-kun?? So it's true... is that what's keeping her busy?

I felt my chest tightened. My eyes are getting teary, I wanted to cry this pain out. I tried to runaway. Then I suddenly bumped into someone and I fell.

"Sorry Miss, are you alright?" He picked up my cupcake box and helped me to get up.

I rubbed my eyes. I looked at him and saw a familiar face.

"S-Shotaro-kun?"

TBC

guys, never think that i don't consider your comments for my updates...
because i also get ideas from what my readers say... :?
just bear with me a little bit please? hehe...

thanks for reading! :)

It's really easy to picture Shoutarou and Philip since I watched all of Kamen Rider Double, although when I imagine them in your fic, I still see them wearing their trademark Windscale clothing. Are they wearing Windscale?

Philip and Chiyuu are engaged, aren't they? What's going to happen if they really are?

Somehow, reading your fic makes me imagine that Ryuu and Akiko will pop up sometime soon hehehe!!!

Yeah... I second this. It'll be hilarious with them being Tsukommi and Boke XD. Ah... engaged before birth, huh? Damn., that's hard to choose. Parents in one end or love at the other end. T^T

hi guys! thanks again for your comments!
especially to those who are new here...  :bow:
so here's the next chapter!

The Sweetest Taste
Chapter 9


"S-Shotaro-kun?"

"Tomochin!" He was also surprised to see me.
"What are you doing here?"

"I.. uhm.. came to visit a friend." I said.

He looked at the corridor where I came from.
"You mean Tomo, right?"

"Y-Yes, I came to bring these cupcakes to her. How about you? What are you doing here?"

"I work here." He answered.

"Oh, really? I guess Tomo's out, so I think I'll just come back some other time."

"It's noon break. Maybe she took her lunch."

I see.. so she's having a lunch date right now with Philip-kun, huh.

"Just right on time. I haven't taken my break yet. Do you mind if you join me?" He asked me.

I agreed. It's been a while since the last time I had conversation with him. Then we went out to a park just nearby the building.

"You want some cupcakes?" I offered him.

"I thought these were for Tomo? Is that okay?"

"Sure, I'll just bake her another next time."
I gave him the box.

"Itadakimasu!" He took a bite.
"Oh, I missed your home-made baking! It's still as delicious as before."

"Thank you." I'm glad he still likes it.

"So nostalgic. I remember, you were always preparing and bringing me snacks in school. I knew then that you'd be a great pastry chef someday."

"I'm not that great. Right now, I just own and manage a simple cafe for a living. But I'm really happy with my job."

He paused, then he looked up at the sky.
"I wonder, Tomochin.." He looked back at me.
"What if we didn't go to separate colleges. You think something different happened in our lives?"

What does he mean? If that happened, I might not had a chance to meet Tomo. He's still looking at me. Now that I think about it, there's something different between the love I felt for Shotaro-kun before and what I feel for Tomo now.

"Why? Aren't you happy with your job right now?" I asked.

"I got my dream job. Thanks to Tomo, she gave me this big opportunity. Her family owns the company. And since I studied mechanical designs, she recommended me to work in here."

Tomo still helped him to reach his dreams eventhough she was hurt by him. She's really something. I am with Shotaro-kun right now but all I think about is her. How about her, does she think of me too?

"Behind her cheerful personality, I knew she's really a lonely girl. Since she's carrying the name of her family." He continued talking.

I know it's not her fault that she's born with a big responsibility ahead of her.
"She getting busier lately, do you think you know the reason why?"
I'm trying to get answers from him.

"Since she's my boss now. I don't interfere with her personal stuff anymore. All I know is that there's a big merger of two companies that is going to happen soon." He said.

My phone rang. I looked at the caller, it's...
"Excuse me for a second, Shotaro-kun. I needed to answer this call."

He nodded, then I walked few steps away.

"Hello." I answered.

"Tomochin, are you at the cafe?" It's Tomo.

"Uhm... Y-Yes, why?" I lied.

"I'm leaving the office soon. I'll be there in a few minutes. There's something I wanted to give you."

"O-Okay, see you then." We hang up.

I went back to Shotaro-kun.
"I'm sorry but I have to go back to the cafe." I told him.

"Is that so? Hope we see each other again soon."
He hugged me and I bid him goodbye.

"Tomochin!" He called me again.
"Tomo's a good person. I'm glad you made friends with her." He said.

I smiled and bowed at him.

-

"Tomochin, you're back early! So did you ask her?"
Sae greeted me with a question.

"No, I didn't have the chance to meet her there."

"But why?" Sayaka's also questioning me.

"I'll explain later. She called over the phone. She's on her way here. Please don't tell her I went to her office today, okay?"

They both nodded.
I felt excitement knowing she's coming, but the pain is still there.
After few minutes, she arrived.

"Tomochin! I missed you!" She jumped to hug me.

"Hi Sae! Sayaka! It's been a while, chiyuu.." She greeted them.

"Hey, Tomo~mi! Do you want anything to eat?" Sae asked.

"It's okay, I just went here to see you guys especially Tomochin!"
She hugged me tighter.

Or rather you should have said that you already had lunch with someone else. I thought.

"If you want anything, don't hesitate to ask us, okay?"
Sayaka offered her then they both left us alone.

"So, how's your day?" I asked breaking the hug.

"Tired.. I'm really busy at work. My parents just came back. And they're watching my every move." She responded.

"Is that all?"
I tried to asked her for more answers.

"Yes and it's so exhausting. I'm very sorry, Tomochin. But I did promise that I'll make it up to you so here I am, chiyuu!"

She's still not telling me everything.
"You told me over the phone earlier that you'll give me something."

"Ah yes ofcourse before I forgot! Here... tada!!!"
She handed me something over. And it's...

"A key?"

"Yup! A spare key to my apartment! We rarely see each other lately. That's why I thought of something how we can still spend time together out of our busy schedules."

"But why are you giving me this?" I asked.

"What do you mean why?"

I didn't answer her.

"Because Tomochin is my girlfriend!" She claimed me.
I kept quiet. I don't know how to react.
"Am I... wrong?" She asked. Her excitement faded away.

"Tomo... I can't remember that I agree with that."
It hurts to say these words.

She looked down.
"I see..." She sounded disappointed.
"I'm sorry, I assume." Then she suddenly walked out on me.

"Tomo, wait!" I immediately went after her.
She's about to get in her car.

"Tomochin... it's okay. You're right, we never talked about it."
I can tell in her voice that she's hurt.

"Tomo..." I stopped and looked at her. I don't know what to say anymore.

"But please keep the key."
She requested. She looked back at me.
"I love you, Tomochin... And I'm willing to wait for you."
After she said those words, she left.

I went back inside the cafe.

"Is it normal for an engaged person to give someone else a spare key to her place?"
Sayaka sounded confused.

"Sounds interesting to me..." Sae commented.
She puts her hand on my shoulder.
"You see, Tomochin. I told Tomo~mi before that whatever her reasons are, my vote will still be on her side. I trust that girl, you know. And I hope you trust her too." Sae smiled at me.

How can I trust her if she's not telling me everything. I thought.
I stare at the spare key she gave me.

Tomo... please... tell me what you are really thinking...

TBC

why am i getting emotional, too? :(
i'll try to update soon...
thanks for reading! :)

I guess Tomochin has too many doubts?  :err: :cool2: I guess Tomochin won't be Tomochin without the tsundere... Not able to straightforwardly ask Chiyuu about the engagement thing... :stunned:

The both of them will be near their deathbeds before Tomochin actually make a move... :on hobo: But this time, Tomochin will probably have to move first since up till now, its all Chiyuu working for it :on thumbb:

Author-san  :shocked :shocked why ? why? why do you do that?  :pleeease:

after reading chapter 9, i think tomochin is hurting because what she saw and what she thought but....  :nervous :nervous it's just my thought, I just think something, other side:
 - If Tomo~mi saw Tomochin with Shotaro at a park, how's her feeling? She saw tomochin with other guy, she called tomochin to check her maybe because she hoped tomochin said that she was being with Shotaro at park, she hoped that tomochin will say a truth to her but ... tomochin lied, at that time tomo~mi must be very hurt. After that, she went to tomochin's cafe, try to nomal, and did what she wanted before but she saw tomochin's expression and what tomochin said  :panic: :panic: :panic: it's very very very hurt  :smoke:

the thing i mention above is just my thought  :sweat: :sweat: , i hope it doesn't happen, because .... if not, poor my tomo~mi  :on speedy: :on speedy: she was very hurt when seeing the girl she loves with other guy who is her first love (although one-side  :sweatdrop: ), talked to him, carried and invited him cafe that she made herself (actually it's for tomo~mi  :on drink: ) , lied her and hugged him and final refused her spare key and said things make her hurt  :on kimbo:

 :hiakhiakhiak: :hiakhiakhiak: maybe i'm imagining too much

I hope you'll update soon  :heart: :heart:

p/s : Is Tomo~mi the one daughter of Kasai? She has no sister,hasn't she?
