That Blonde Guy

Chapter 7

I woke up in an unfamiliar room.

The warm sunlight that was seeping through the window hit my face and woke me. My vision was blurry when I opened my eyes, and it took a while before everything became clear to me.

Where am I?

I pulled myself up and sat on the bed, my back against the headboard. I looked at myself and saw that I was wearing some kind of shirt that's obviously wasn't mine. Where's my uniform? Then my face twitched when I suddenly felt a pang of pain in my head. I held it, and my fingers felt something in my forehead. A bandage?

I frowned. Wait, what's happening? Where is this place?

My eyes widened when I suddenly remembered everything that happened last night. I got lost, and was almost got raped by some drunkard in a deserted street under the rain. Someone came and saved me. I remembered calling Ken Ryuguji's number but it wasn't him who came, it was--

I paused. Manjiro Sano.

"Shit," I uttered, realizing everything. I may not be thinking straight last night but I remembered his face. It was him. So I was now in Manjiro Sano's place?

Realizing that, I immeditely looked down at myself, focusing on the unfamiliar shirt that I was wearing. My eyes widened. So who in the actual fuck changed my clothes?!

As I was about to freak out, the door on the far end of the room suddenly opened, and I automatically pushed myself back and pulled the white blanket up my body. The door creaked and a person came in--a pretty girl with sandy blonde hair--holding a tray with foods on it. Her honey-colored eyes met mine and she immediately smiled. "Oh, you're awake."

I didn't know what to say. Who is she?

"How do you feel?" she asked in a sweet feminine voice. She sat on the bed and put the tray of food on the table to the side.

I gulped, not moving my eyes away from her face. "W-Where am.. I?"

"You're in our house, and this is my room," she said. "Mikey brought you here last night. You were unconcious."

I was brought here by Manjiro Sano, and this pretty girl tended to me. So it means it was her who changed my clothes, right? I furtively heave a sigh of relief.

Wait, who is she, anyway?

The girl probably had read the question in my mind because she already spoke before I could even ask. "My name's Emma," she said. "I'm Mikey's sister."

Mikey's sister?

I gulped for the second time and stared at her for about five seconds straight. Manjiro Sano had a sister?

"What's your name?"

I didn't know why it took me a few seconds to answer. "N-Nika."

She just smiled. She took the tray of foods from the table. "Here, I prepared a breakfast for you," she said. "Are you hungry?"

I couldn't take my eyes away from her as I was eating the food that she brought me that morning. Emma Sano was so pretty that I would just stare at her as she told me how she tended to me last night when I was unconcious and bleeding from the forehead. She didn't even ask what's my connection to her brother and talked to me in a sweet and calm manner with the comforting tone of her voice. If she didn't told me that she was Manjiro Sano's sister, I could've thought that she was his girlfriend, but now that I was staring at her face, I realized that they indeed had a slight resemblance. They had the same face shape. Almost the same nose. They're both blonde, and both extremely attractive.
