Chapter 16

Riisa POV

“what are you doing here?” He asks cold in his tone. I didn’t move an inch from where I am now, right at the door. My tears threatens to fall but I hold it so much from happen so

“don’t you want to come in?” the girl ask me. I shook my head

“ah, it’s ok. I’m dropping by actually. My sister came, so we’re heading for some shopping before we went back to Ireland,”

“we?” He asks. My lip forms a small curl. I know I fake a smile, and I know he knows it. But I pretend like nothing. My heart ache so much that I feel it’s going to explode by the ache I feel now.

“After you accept the deal, Ninomiya-kun,” I reply his question after a while of thinking. I saw his startled face. Must be because of I call him Ninomiya-kun, not the usual way I call him.

“No offence there, oniichan,” I said once before turns to the girl. “Is this your girlfriend? Kireii naa… Hajimemashite. Riissa tomoimasu. Kazu’s cousin,” I say while holding out my hands. She must be so proud didn’t she? A girlfriend of a top idol… wait a minute, am I jealous? I’m nothing to him. His word last night must be a joke. What is this feeling?

“Ahh, Kaachan ask me to give this,” I hand him the food. I need to get away from here as fast as possible. He shouldn’t see this side of mine. 

I give him one last warm smile before turn around and went away from his house. I almost ran while climb down the stairs before a strong grip pull me to stop. I don’t have to turn to face the one who pull me, I know it’s him.

He didn’t say anything, just stand there staring at me with a face that is hard for me to describe. I didn’t know if he hate or just happy to see me in this state. His silent really break my heart. God, help me to stay strong.

“Let me go, Kazu-kun,” I plead while trying to let go from his grip. There I see his smirk.

“Not long ago, you call me oniichan. Now you call me Kazu-kun. What are you trying to tell me, Riisa?” he ask me irritate. For a moment, I really hope that I can disappear away from him but I know, it’s impossible.

Faking a smile, I sigh once before turn to him. My mind and my heart, I keep them prepared to face the situation as strong as I could.

“What are you expecting me to say? I’m not someone like you,” I remark him with my sharp words. “I wonder if you do this all the time, kazu-kun. it’s not even 24 hours you said you love me. And this morning, I saw a beautiful girl, in your house. With you half-naked…” I didn’t finish my words when he snaps back at me.

“So, you’re jealous?”

“Jealous? For what reason?”

Silent.

“There’s no real reason for me to get jealous,”

“But the way you act is!”

“Then you’re wrong on interpreting the way I’m behave,” I said, a little pissed off by his words.

The way he acts, like he understands me all the time. I’m annoyed, mad not to mention broken.

Both of us stay unspoken for a few minutes. He keeps staring at me while I try to hold myself from burst out of heartbroken.

I felt cheated. Is this the punishment that I get for not being true with my own feeling?

“You should go. It’s so not nice for people to see you this way. You’re an idol. What will people say seeing you only covered by a piece of towel?” I break the silence by joking around. He just replies with a smirk. Not even a word, he walks away from me heading back to his apartment.

Just when I’m sure I’m strong enough, I blurt out.

“kazu-kun,” he stops, facing me. “About what you said last night…”

“It’s not true. I’m just testing you,”

His tone was cold. Once again he smirks, before he disappears from my view, leaving me getting more broken than before.

Maybe this is really the punishment for lying.

Nino POV

I never realized that I was spacing out until someone pat my shoulders taking me back into reality. Both Sho-kun and Aiba-chan look at me with an uncertain look, while Jun keeps on staring at me with a bitter look.

“Did you hear what we said?” he ask.

“Ah, gomen. I don’t,” I said, while looking at my DS only to realize that I fail the level. Damn it, it must be a long time I’ve been spacing out.

“Something bother you?” Sho-kun asks me. I shook my head.

“Ne, Nino-chan,” this time, it’s Aiba-kun. “Are you ok? You look pale,”

I shook my head, telling him I’m fine. The other three then keep continue on their random topic while I pull out the earphone from my pocket, pretend to not here a thing. Before I realized it once again I space out before I received another pat from the younger member of the group.

I turn my face facing him. I know he’s concern about me.

“doushita?”he ask. All that I could give is a small sighs.

“you know what, you’ve been spacing out since a few hours ago. Are you really fine?” this time. it’s Sho-kun that ask.

Should I just tell them? After all, we didn’t really talk about our personal life before. Should I burden them with my problems?

Just when I decided to open my mouth, someone enter the room, and I saw Ohno-kun walks in. It has been a few days we didn’t talk to each other, nothing today as well.

“Sho-chan, Aiba-chan. They’re calling you both,” he said stiff before heading to one part of the room, away from me. After a few minutes, it’s just left me and Jun-kun at the centre of the room with Ohno-kun at the corner reading the magazines with us as the cover.

“Ne, ne,” just when I thought no one’s going to break the silence, Jun starts one. “How about last time? Did it works?”

For a while I keep staring at the black screen on my DS. My mind suddenly flashes back on what happened between me and Riisa last time. I still could see her hurt expression even though she denied it so much.

“it didn’t work,” I said hopeless. “She rejected me,”

Both of us fell silent.

“I’m confused,” I said, with Jun looks at me concern. “I wonder why. her reason sounds so pathetic and unconvincing too. It seems like she’s hiding something from me,”

“Hiding?” I nod as a response to Jun’s question.

“I can’t explain what it is, but, I just feel it,”

“Maybe, you should give her time. You know, maybe she’s confused too. After all, she’s your cousin. She must be shocked with your confession”

Maybe. Maybe she is. Then what I should do? After all the things I did.

“I mess up too,”

“Mess up?”

“She saw me with a girl in my house,”

“What?” I saw Jun shocked face hearing my words.

“it can’t be helped. I was frustrated. You know how I hate the “I can’t accept you because you’re an idol” things. I don’t even realized what I do that night, but what I’m sure the next morning I wake up, there’s a girl lying next to me naked,” I explained just to received a disgusted looks from him.

This time I knew, I have made a really big mistake.

“What should I do now? I hurt her,”

JUN POV

“She saw me with a girl in my house,”

To be honest, I feel like punching him in the face for whatever action he has made. Well if it’s me, I’ll end up in my house, drank all alcohol I have in my stock and get drunk. At least I know, I will be safe at home.

But this guy in front of me, how could he didn’t think rationally?

“What should I do now? I hurt her,” I heard he mutter those words. Seriously, I have no idea to response on his words. While all of this time, the members keep saying I’m an expert in this kind of problem, this time, I lost.

“Nino,” I call him once for his attention. “I seriously have no idea about what you should do. I want to say go and explain to her, but I’m not sure if it will work, but still…” I didn’t get a chance to finish my words when our manager pops up at the door.

“Ninomiya-san, Matsumoto-san, Ohno-san, they call for a group shooting,”

I sigh, along with him. I saw Riida make a way toward us. He gives us a small glance before heading to the door. Just when I about to turn back to Nino, I saw him out of nowhere.

Wait, he’s still there, laying on the floor. What the heck?

“Nino,” I shake his body when I realized there’s blood flowing from his nose. My mind was empty. My heart was thumping so hard.

“RIIDA!!!! TASUKETE!!!”
