Chapter 02

-Manami-

The second I look up, I know I'm gonna have a heart attack. Karma-kun, leaning against the Sakura tree and silently watched me. Just how long he's been there. Its like he's studying me. Do he already know who I am?

"Mind if I join you?"

Okay, play it cool. Theres a slight chance that he doesnt recognize you just yet. Play. It. Cool.

"Yes? You need something?"

He slowly walk and then sit on the other side of the bench. Kuro-chan approach him and he pick him up, put him on his lap and stroke his chin.

"What is your furry friends name?"

"Kuro-chan"

"Kuro (black)? Do you named him? I had a cat, his name is also Kuro. His fur is black. But your friend here, his fur is red. Why are you naming him kuro (black)?. "

"The paw. Its black"

"Ahh.. I see"

So, Kuro is still with him. I'm glad. I remember pick him up by the riverside, but cannot bring him home. Then Karma took him in, just because I kept fussing over the feline didn't have a home. I wonder how big he is now.

"Hey, do you hear me Ami?"

"Huh?"

"Wow this is the first time a girl ignoring me twice."

I looked at him, confused.

Ami? Why did he called me Ami? Huh, is he for real? How could he forget about me? Wait, is he making fun of me? But why?

I felt my vision blurred. My heart sank and the sharp twinge is unbearable. My chest tighten, as utter disappointment piercing deep inside. I looked away from him. Trying so hard to keep my tears in check, I place my hand over my heart. It still hurt.

He still playing with Kuro-chan, ignoring me. But at the same time, I could feel he watching me from the corner of his eye. Why do I fell like he's mocking me. Is it true? That he's just messing with all this I-dont-know-you with me. I cant do this. I must go this instant. I picked my bag and books and stand to leave.

"Sorry I have to go. I have class." Lie. I dont have class right now. But I dont care, I must go from here.

He smirked.

"Your name." I stop, froze.

"You already know my name. Its only fair."

I can see the mischief in his eyes, but at the same time I see innocence. Pure curiosity which I able to see after months together. Our friends may only see his mischief and arrogance, but the Karma I know has lots of good side on him.

So, he hasn't found out yet? What should I tell him? Did i told him that I'm Manami? But, deep down in my heart I don't want him to know just yet. I'm hoping we never crossed way again. What should i do?

"DING DONG ! DING DONG !" Saved by the bell ! Yes !

" Sorry, I really have to go."

I can feel his stare at the back of my head as I walk quickly to main campus. I bumped to several people and obtain several glare from them. But I don't care about that now, I need to go away from there. I need a distraction.

I go to the nearest bathroom and get inside one of the stall. My hands still shaking, and my cheeks burning. My chest fell tight, I can feel my lip trembling and just like that I finally let my tears fall against my cheek.

Why now?

I do know and I'm sure that one day, well cross path. And I'm hoping when that day come, I'll be strong enough to look into his eyes. To be honest, I hope that day will never come. I cant bear to have my already broken heart, to flutter with hope. A false hope, that after all this years apart, he would still fallen in love with me.

What if all the things that happened between us is just my imagination? Only my weak heart delusion. A figment of my endless daydream. What if Karma-kun never think that way about me?

Unrequited love hurts.

I dont know how long I sit there and cry. When I finally wash my face and dry my eyes. I looked on the mirror and sighed. Just why did I back being a cybaby? What should I do now? Everybody can see that I've been crying.

I decided to wait several minutes before walked out the bathroom. I check my watch, my class begun in 30 minutes. I sighed again, and begin walk towards my class.

"..ami-chan ! Manami-chan ! Hey wait up !"

" Ah, Hinano-chan. Do you have class today also?"

" No, but I have club today. Such a pain. I just want to skip. You're lucky you dont have club. This is all because of Hiroto-senpai !"

" Its a shame Hiroto-senpai already graduate last year. But you love you club right Hinano-chan?"

" I do. But still.. Hey ! Why is your eyes so red? Are you crying?"

" What? No. Oh, I think I got something in my eyes. So, yeah I've been rubbing it since. I guess thats why my eyes is red. Yeah"

Oh God, please let Hinano-chan believe it. I'm not ready to share it with her yet. Over the course of 2 years, we've became closer. We often hang out to share, but since we are in different department we rarely see ach other. Beside, there's a slight change that Hinano-chan knows Karma in this Uni too.

We reached my class and we say goodbye. Promise we'll going shopping this weekend. I sat on my desk, and stare outside the window. My professor lecture going like the wind. I cant concentrate. My mind keep going to those red mane and golden eyes. For the first time ever, I want to skip class and curled up in my bed, crying to my hearts content.

-Karma-

Manami.

The day I lost her is the worst day of my life. And following months in even worse. I began searching for her everywhere, in every place that crossed my mind. With every tiny bit of information I got, I dragged my feet there. I began chasing her shadow from the corner of my eyes. My eyes light up every time I caught a glimpse of long black hair and glasses.

Its almost pathetic. After months juggling my time with school and searching for her, I finally slow down. I consider ask for my parents and friends help. I'm sure they'll help me. But I didn't do it. I still not sure about my feeling back then. What makes me chasing after her? Why do I tries so desperately to find her?

Truthfully I do know what do I feel about her. The reason I go to such length to find her. But I'm not ready. I stopped searching for her. I'm not giving up. But instead I choose to wait. I'm sure we'll cross path again. Just let me make sure what kind of feeling I have for her.

There been times Maehara, Okajima and Terasaka tried to set me up with one of their friends. They said they pitied me. How dare them ! What a joke. I don't need their pity. I despise pity.

Besides, those girls only love my outer self. Once they know my true self and mischief I done, they left me. Doesn't matter to me, anyway. I don't need other girls. I only need her. That's when I realize my feelings for her.

Ami. That girl is interesting. From our first meeting I get the feeling he knows more than just my name. The looks in her eyes told me she's surprised and did not expect to see me in the library. To be honest so do I. With a quick glance to her, everyone can see she's not kind of girl that ever step foot on library.

After observing her, I feel something different. It's like she's hiding something, something more behind those get up. Like she's trying to deceive everybody. I tried to talk to her yesterday, and I knew I was right. Her somewhat awkward demeanor gives her away. With closer look, she makes me curious. What your secret little girl?

Her eyes reminds me of Manami's. I thought they have same eyes.

But Manami's eyes glint with combination of shyness and curiosity. She has the most silky, long black hair I ever touch. Her serious look when she's concentrating. And her sweet smile while hiding her face in cotton candy that night. I wish I could go back to that special night. I won't ever let go of her hand.

I sighed and put down my game console.

I was looking at my empty hand when my phone lights up.

Drrtt ! Drrttt ! Drrrttt Drrttt !

Yoshida calling.

What did he want?

Drrrttt ! Drrrtt ! Drrrrt Drrrttt !

I lazily pick up the phone and throw myself to the bed.

" What do you want?"

" You dimwit ! Why didn't you pick up my call sooner you punk!? Do you know how –"

Click.

Drrrttt ! Drrrtt ! Drrrrtt Drrrtt !

Seriously I'm not in the mood for his crap. I'll just ignore him until he stops. I put the phone above my head and close my eyes.

Her long twin braid dances in front of my eyes. I can hear her squeal when I pull her braids. Those days have become precious memories for me.

Manami, just where on earth did you disappear into?

Drrrtt Drrtt ! Drrrtt Drrtt !

Finnaly Yoshida stops calling, instead I got 2 text message from him. The first one dedicated to insult me and the second one to reminds me we have meet up with our friends on Friday.

I throw my phone above my head and close my eyes again.

Her long hair tickle my cheek as we sat on the riverbank. She let her hair loose this time. She usually wears them in twin braids, but not today. That's because I kept pulling her hair tie, she runs out of them and give up. I looked at her and I felt something weird on my stomach.

I know this scene, It's been played so many times in my head. She'll rant about the potion we made today, while her hands playing with her hem and sipping her juice. As usual I'll listen to her and throwing some ideas to make the best prank possible. After that we'll walk to the station and head to different platform.

But today she drinking Strawberry juice, not milk as she usually does. Might be because of the heat. I bet it must be sweet and fresh. Should I took the juice and have a taste? But her lips looks so much more sweet and fresh. Its pink and soft. It do taste like strawberry. Hmmm? Strawberry? What?

The next thing I know I was kissing her. Her hair is spread on the bench as I hover on top of her.. Huh? On the bench? I looked up and realize we're not on the riverbank anymore. We're on the bench behind the social science building. Weird.

What even weirder is I could feel Manami's hand pulling my head down. And when I looked at her, I was surprised.

Looking back at me is a clear eyes, no glasses. Locks of black hair is gone, and replaced by a mane of brown hair. She close her eyes and pulled me down again.

" No. Wait a minute."

I tried to push her hands away. My Manami is not this bold. My Manami.

For a girl, she's unexpectedly strong. I can feel shes pulling me even harder and with a shock I fell down with my eyes tightly closed.

Thud!

Ow !

My head hurts. I open my eyes and saw my bedroom ceiling. I'm still on my bedroom.

"I must be crazy."

I've been dreaming about her.
