see you; baji keisuke [✓]

seventeen

still keeping in that position, baji pouts and creased his eyebrows. "what do you mean kinda pretty?" he questions her as he watch and hears her laughing at him.

"im just saying you look good in a braid," she told him. she was about to push him away so she could sit up but he didn't move, his body was still in that position. "baji-kun, i need toー"

"no, i want to stay like this for a little longer," aren't your arms tired from carrying your body like that? she wanted to ask him that as well but only to see his face coming closer. the distance between their faces decreased as it was now only inches away. he has that serious face again as he looks into her eyes. before anything happens, she shut her eyes close.

closer and closer until she felt something pressing against her lips. she opens one eye to see that baji's eyes were closed. both of her eyes opened wide, grabbing onto baji's biceps and pulling him away, sitting up in the process.

he stares at her with a blank face as if that whole thing didn't happened. she felt her face warming up as she cups her cheeks with her hands. "wh-" she hesitated asking but felt his hands removing her's as he held onto them instead. "was that too sudden?" he asked, worried whether he did something wrong as he reads her face.

she shook her head aggressively, looking down on her lap but slowly moves her gaze to him. he raise a brow while smiling as he tries not to let out a laugh. "can't believe you took my first." he jokingly complains.

"you!" she furrowed her eyebrows as she was about to point her index finger at him but took her hand back when the door opened. revealing baji's mother, she covers her mouth with her right hand. "did i interrupt something?"

"no noー" aiichiro got cut off when a palm covers her mouth. "yea, it was kind of important," he interrupts her as her eyes grew wide and her eyebrows creased down. his mother walks to pick up the tray of drinks and the bowl and was about to leave but turn to us and apologised before closing the door shut.

aiichiro pushed his hand away from her mouth while her other hand lightly hit his arm. "you, sir, better stop interrupting me!" she scolds him while he laughs at her reaction as to him it was the most priceless one.

he stopped laughing and got up from his bed. he turns around to face her. "you should head home," the girl pouts, still sitting on his bed. she doesn't want to leave so soon. its still not pass seven yet and he wants her to go home already? he clicked his tongue softly before carrying her from her armpit and out of the bed.

damn, im like 49kg. she thought, seeing how he could carry her who's height isn't that far different from his. "go home or you wanna follow me?" he asked her. her eyes brightens up as her answer was quite obvious. "fine, lets go,"

the both of them head out of his apartment, bidding his mother a 'goodbye'. the girl doesn't seem to ask any questions on where he was heading to.

aiichiro flinched abit when she felt fingers slithering around her left hand. she quickly looks down to see his hand holding onto her's. "just in case you get lost," he muttered as she smiled and scoffs at him.

they were infront of a post office. he lets go of her hand and told her to wait outside, she obeyed and stood infront of the office. "hm, wonder who he's sending letters to," she asked herself as if she knew the answers to it. she turns around when she felt a pat on her shoulder. he finished what he had to do so now he accompanied her home.

the two were really quiet but they were okay with it because their presence were enough. infront of her apartment building, he turns her around to face him. she was clueless but surprised a little when he pull her towards him with his hand at the back of her neck. he pecked her lips before letting go. "see you," he said before walking his way home.

"uhuh," she waves her hand at him before walking up to her apartment. opening the door, she announced that she was home. as soon as she reached the living room, she sees her parents and aunt sitting across each other on the dining table. "you guys are.. back, huh?"

"aiichiro, please don't run away again," her mother begged the girl nicely as she nods. hatsuki told her to sit next to her and she did. her parents kept staring at their daughter with the laziest eyes ever.

she got a little annoyed so she slam her hand on the table not too loudly. "is there anything you need?" she asked them but they remain quiet. she raise a brow. "kaka, what are they doing here again?" she turns to the woman beside her for answers, only to hear that she as well have no idea what they wanted to say to themー or just her.

the male breathes in and out, finally deciding to talk. "how was school?" he asked her. thats it? she answered him anyways. "its normal," she replied, her tone a little cold. he gulps his saliva before turning to his wife about what they needed to discuss about with their daughter.

"aiichiro sweetie, we really need to talk to you so i hope we could all cooperate together," her mother then flashed a smile at the girl infront of her. "alright. what do you want to talk about?" aiichiro asked, this time her voice was more gentle then before.

"well, you know how business is doing great, right?" the girl nods. "of course, we want our success to continue on with our bloodline. so we thought maybe you could stay at osaka toー" she choked on her own saliva.

"excuse me what?"

"we would like you to stay with us,"

the two adults gave her the softest smile before hearing her opinions on it. she raise a brow with her eyes wide open. "osaka? why should i be at osaka? so you could be relieved that you have a heir to take over in a few years time?" she starts spitting questions at them so coldly.

"i mean osaka, yea sure i don't mind staying there but can it wait. until.. til.. maybe when i graduated high school?" she suggested as she fidgets with her fingers. "im sure theres a good college for me to apply at osaka so yea," she ends it of like that, not able to end it with the right words.

her parents look at each other before looking at her again. as soon as she reads their faces, she knew its not going to happen. its going to be something worse then just not being able to wait. its probably going to be like her parents dragging her ass to osaka and not giving any fuck about her declining the offerー

"we'll see what we can do," huh. did they just... consider what i said? she was lost in words but a smile painted on her face the next second. she bow at them, thanking them for atleast putting her words into consideration.

the two adults left the building in their fancy car as she watches them drove off until they were gone from eye shot. hatsuki walks behind her and wraps her arm around aiichiro's neck as she laughs. "now thats done," she cheered.

"where did you go after school?" her aunt questions since the girl didn't let her know about her whereabouts. she finds her way to speak up but was stopped when the woman said "you went out with your boyfriend," aiichiro only stood still, she wasn't right but she wasn't wrong either.

after awhile she decided to tell the older female the truth. "i went to visit baji-kun," the woman was cheering internally as she sees her niece having such a happy and healthy relationship. she watches as the girl walks into her room. aiichiro jumps onto her bed to rest a little bit before taking a shower.

"what a day,"
