-------------------
RWIDLY 1: Once upon a time in high school
“Let’s have a toast for the last remaining single in this room!!!” the fanged girl smirked at me while raising her glass of beer motioning for the toast.
“Come on, Tomochin.” Sae called her, “Our last single friend here,” she pointed at me, “Still can’t move on with her rejection.” She said which earned laughers from the other girls in the room.
Atsuko made a thinking pose, “How long it has been since that day, you’ve been rejected?”
“Five years!!!” they all said in chorus.
‘…and three months.’ I added in my mind.
“You should really move on, I mean, that’s just too long!!!” Jurina commented.
“She never noticed your existence anyway.” Mayu said bluntly.
They just continued teasing me.
I mentally slapped myself. I really regret ever coming to this party knowing that they’ll just tease me for being the only single in our group of friends. Then automatically they will talk about my first love and heartbreak again. Next, they’ll tell me to move on and love someone again. That’s the usual pattern. And just the usual I’ll say,
“I just enjoy the life of being single.” I smirked, “I don’t want to be tied yet.”
Tonight is the party before Yuko and Haruna’s wedding. Finally the cat-like girl fell in love with the squirrel.
“Well, if you’ll be tied to the one that you love even more than your life, it’s really amazing.” Yuko entered the room, half embracing Haruna, “I’m looking forward to be tied to my NyanNyan forever.”
Haruna pinched Yuko’s cheek playfully, “You should be, because you’ll be tied to me eternally.”
I and the others just grinned. And when the attention turned back at me again, I mentally cursed myself.
“So when will you be tied?” Yuko grinned.
I sighed desperately, “Why do guys always gang up on me!?”
“That’s because you’re the only single in here!!! You don’t even have a girl friend to protect you!!!” Sae answered.
“But Sae, our friend’s eternal love is worse than all of us here combined when it comes to teasing.” Tomochin grinned at me.
"And she's quite lucky that her love is in US." Acchan added.
“I’m over her already!!!” I yelled in frustration. They just looked at me as if I’m an alien who’s speaking some word that they mysteriously understand.
“Yeah, and superman exist.” Mayu added.
“Hey…stop your wives!!!” I plead to the silent ones who are just smiling at their wives antics.
“Poor Miichan, Mariko is in America for her fashion show.” Acchan cooed.
“Don’t worry, kid. I guarantee that you’ll see her on my wedding.” Yuko said with a thumbs up.
“Then you’ll see her there, looking all so pretty, then you’ll fall in love with her helplessly…” Tomochin chuckled.
“Hey Tomochin, she fell in love long time ago!!!” Sae said as matter of fact.
“Hey…stop you wives please…” I begged the others.
Sayaka sighed, “Stop that, my genking.” She ran her fingers through Sae’s hair. Sae just smiled and started to enjoy her wife’s warm touch.
“You too Mayuyu.” Yuki said while wrapping her arms around Mayu’s waist, placing her chin on the latter’s right shoulder. The cyborg blushed and cuddled with Yuki.
“Come here, Juju.” Rena motioned for Jurina to sit on her lap, Jurina grinned like a puppy gaining a price.
“Don’t tease her too much, Chiyuu~” Tomomi pecked the other Tomo’s lips.
“Just let her off for tonight, Yuko.” Haruna gave Yuko a seductive smile.
“Acchan…dame.” Manami pouted and Acchan pounced on her cute chibi wife.
I slouched at my chair in hopelessness. They just made my feeling worse you know? it’s like they’re purposely showing that I’m forever alone in here!!!
I stood up and made my way to the kitchen. I opened the fridge and looked for something to eat, I’m not really on the mood for drinking and some stupid junk foods. I also prepared some coffee for them tomorrow, just to get rid of they’re hang-overs when they woke up drunk. After filling my stomach I went back to bid my farewell.
“Eh…you’re not staying, Miichan?” Yuki asked.
“Yeah, I need to make sure that everything will be perfect on this perverted squirrel’s wedding.” I answered.
Yuko gave me a high-five and said, “Thanks, you’re the best.”
-------------
Once I’ve reached my condo unit, I’ve collapsed to my bed. I’ll just go to the office later. I work at my family’s restaurant. I’m the one in-charge for the food of the guests and whatever creatures that will attend Yuko’s wedding.
Mou…
I decided to steal some sleep because I’m sure that I won’t get a lot of nap time starting later and the following days. I’m also in charge on most of the events on Yuko’s wedding. Since according to them I’m the only one with no girlfriend or wife, that’s why I should suffer the consequences. And also, I don’t have any commitments with someone, nor a wife that will ask why did I come home late.
Why can’t they just say that they’ll rather go lovey-dovey with their wives? It’s just annoying that they have to use my dull love life as an excuse for everything!!!
It’s not like that I don’t want to have a girlfriend or wife, duh; I don’t want to grow old ALONE.
The thing is, the one I love doesn’t love me back.
I tried dating others but they turned out to be failures. Every step I took AWAY from her is equivalent to ten steps BACK to her. Maybe it’s because what I’m looking for is someone who’s just like her.
I want someone with her qualities, those qualities that made me fall for her.
In the end, I realized that I am just looking for another Mariko that will love me back. And if she’s not the one for me, I’d choose not to get married anymore.
But of course, I’ll never admit that to anyone.
She’s my first love, and if you read those things written above, she’s the last one that I’ll love, ever.
If it’s too cheesy, I can do nothing, because I just can’t help but be in love with her.
But as I’ve mentioned in the prologue, she’s far from me. But ever since she rejected me, we became closer. We became friends, and it will be awkward if she found out that I’m still in love with her.
She might leave me again…
That’s the reason why I chose not to tell her, maybe it’s for the better…or so I thought.
It’s hard to be always with her ever since Acchan and Minami became a couple. Acchan is a member of the popular side and she’s friends with Mariko, then Minami is my friend.
That’s why most of the times, Acchan and Mariko is with the gang. The already knows about my feelings for Mariko. Do they think that we won’t notice that every time they have their dates, they’ll leave me with Mariko?
They’re really supportive…the problem is, Mariko doesn’t want it.
---------------
“Don’t think that I’m starting to like you. I’m just with you because I just pity you.” She grinned, “You still can’t move on from me, can you?”
Ouch. I know…
“Don’t be a jerk, I don’t like walking sticks!!!”
“Denial mascot…” she teased.
And because she’s telling the truth, I just walked away.
---------------
I can still remember when she said that…
She’s annoying!!!
aarrrrggggggg!!!!!
I told myself to sleep didn’t I!? Then, why is she still hunting my mind!?
I got up and went to the fridge, and grabbed some cake. I usually eat when I can’t sleep.
--------------
“You’re going to eat again?” she raised an eyebrow.
“I can’t sleep!!!”
“That’s why your fat.” She pinched my cheek, “You’re like a pig.”
“And you!!!” I pointed at her, “You’re a giant but you’re so thin!!! You’re a walking stickzilla!!! You’re still lucky that the wind didn’t carry you away!!!”
“Stickzilla, huh? Let me remind you, GachaPIG, you fell in love with me.”
And since I can’t say yes, I just walked away…
-------------
argggghhhh!!!!
That cursed stickzilla!!!
Why do I always think of her!?
I glanced at the calendar.
“For heaven’s sake…Minegishi…forget her…it has been seven years and three months…MOVE ON WILL YOU!!!” my brain yelled at my heart.
My heart answered, “YOU! You’re called a brain, yet you don’t know how to think!!! How can I forget her when you keep remembering her!!!”
I’m going crazy…
And it all started...once upon a time in high school...
-----------
I’m going to see her again…really, I can pass as a stalker now, but at least I’m a cute stalker ^^
I really can’t help myself…love can make you do crazy things…
“Where are you going, Yuko?” asked Mayu.
-______-
Oh…I totally forgot about my friends being here…I can’t escape…
I pouted in disappointment.
“I’m going to see NyanNyan!!!” Yuko shouted.
“As if she’ll notice you…” Mayu commented coldly while reading her manga.
“If you don’t believe in love, don’t drag me with you, cyborg.” Said Yuko
“I’m just stating the truth…look there.”
I looked where Mayu was pointing.
One of our classmates was crying.
“It seems that Jurina has another victim.” I commented. Jurina is the playgirl of the school.
“But aren’t you wondering why she started rejecting them now…I mean she’s the ultimate playgirl right?” Rena said while staring outside the window.
We looked at each other; we including myself, Mayu and Yuko.
Rena just talks once in the blue moon, and usually she doesn’t really care about what we are talking about.
“Hm?” she looked at us confused.
"Are you defending her?" Mayu asked unbelievingly.
“Hehehehe~~~” Yuko smirked, “Who are you looking for out there, Rena? She asked.
Rena suddenly stood up and covered Yuko that is trying to know who caught the raven’s attention.
Luckily, rena is taller than yuko, so she completely blocked the view. Rena looked at me with pleading eyes. I sighed.
“Hey…yuko, aren’t you going to see haruna?” I reminded her.
She smiled widely and ran outside the classroom.
“Tch.” I heard Mayu said. She didn’t even bother to look on whatever rena was looking at before. Rena sighed in relief. I secretly glanced on the person who caught rena’s attention.
I smirked.
I wonder why rena is looking at Jurina?
XXXXXXXXXX
When nobody cares about my existence anymore, I escaped. I’m going to the library, I need to escape not because I’m not allowed to go there or anything, it’s just because I’m not the type to go to the library so it would definitely cause uproar.
“Miichan!!!” Minami called.
“Is your meeting done?” I asked her, Minami is the vice president of student council.
“Yes. Anyways, Akashi-sensei called for you.”
I pouted, “Why?”
I can’t see Mariko!!!
“I don’t know…bye.” She left.
I decided not see Mariko for today since Akashi-sensei becomes a fire-breathing dragon when he gets mad.
XXXXXXXXXX
I knocked on the door.
“What do you need, Sensei?” I asked politely; trying hard to hide my pissed of aura due to not seeing Mariko for today.
Welcome to the poor love life of mine.
Sensei looked at me, “Oh…help me staple this.” He pointed at the mountain of papers in this desk.
My jaw-dropped. He asked me to come here just to staple papers!? I won’t see my mariko because I have to staple those cursed papers!?
Seriously…can I kill somebody!?
Oh...calm down, miichan....
“What are you doing there!? Start working!!!” he yelled.
So there I’m on staple here, there, everywhere.
“Akashi-sensei?” a familiar voice called sensei.
Oh my…gosh!!!
"Yes? Mariko-chan?"
My heart!!! Uwaa…did mariko miss me so much that she came here herself!?
Tss…I’m just assuming again…
“Fujiwara-sensei asked me to give some papers.” Mariko said as she gave sensei the papers.
T^T
Mariko-chan…my future wife…why did you add more to my job!?
But anyways…I’m fully charged since I saw you!!!
She didn’t last there long.
Uwaa...Mariko...don't leave me!!!
So…back to stapler mode again.
"Hey...minegishi..."
"Yes sir?"
“You’re in love with Mariko right?”
Processing...
“OF COURSE NOT!!!” I yelled super defensively.
Am I that obvious!? I’m not drooling in front of her, right!?
“Stop denying and just tell me how you fell in love with her.”
Hmm…it seems that sensei is hiding a gossip girl inside him.
“Come on… so we can have a topic. We still need a lot of things to do you know…” she said.
I sighed, “Fine…I’m in love with Mariko.”
“Well…that’s expected…” sir commented, “"She’s popular, smart, cool, great fashion sense..."
I nodded, “But you know sir…I fell in love with Mariko even before I realized that she’s like that.”
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
My first encounter with Mariko…was not sweet just like in the in the movies or shoujo manga.
Actually, we’re sitting beside a trash bin while I’m vomiting and cursing myself for my endless stupidity.
I was crying that time, and I smell bad already. And the first thing she said, wasn’t sweet or romantic either.
"...you look stupid..." Those were her first words.
Sweet right? Sarcasm please...
My first ever boyfriend broke up with me, his name is Takeshi. I was really hurt that time because I thought that I love him.
And because of the pain, I drank a lot of beers. And that was the time that I discovered that beers and I, are not meant to be either.
Mariko was just a random passerby who was just tired of walking and decided to listen to my story, “I take back what I said, you, don’t look stupid.”
I smiled at her but it was instantly replaced by a frown when I heard her continuation.
"...because you are stupid."
At that time, I almost went back to our house and get the beer bottle so I can smack it on her annoying beautiful face!!!
“And what’s the difference between that!?”
"There's a huge difference between them." She said, "When you look stupid, you're loo like a crazy maniac...but if you're stupid..."
She stared directly at my eyes, “There are many reasons for a person to be stupid…and in your case; you just fell in love. But there is no smart person in love. That’s why being stupid means you just fell in love sincerely.”
She added, “…but if you’re stupid, you’re ex is an idiot, because there are only few persons who are only few persons in the world who are willing to be stupid for love.”
At that time…I know it was weird…but… I know that my heart never beat as fast before.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
“Mariko is my first love…with Takeshi…let’s just say I was just attached to him. But with Mariko…it’s really different…”
“You’re in love with Mariko?”
"Yes..."
I can’t resist to smile.
“I just realized that she’s beautiful when I saw her again…she didn’t recognized me though.”
