Wedding in Japan

Part 13

Chapter 13

Adrien and Kagami managed to get a direct train to the airport and stood together in front of the balcony of a Japanese airline where a man sat in front of the computer searching for any free tickets to Tokyo. 
"Good news and bad news. I managed to find at least one last minute-flight to Tokyo, which is in a half an hour. Only one of you two is able to go there" The man said. " The next two flights are full and the last flight has a couple of seats free in the first-class instead"
"You can take the last-minute one," Adrien said looking at the blue-haired girl and took out his wallet. "How much is a last-minute flight?"
"16435 roubles," Told the man and Adrien took out his credit card ton insert in the credit card reader, then gave his pin to confirm the payment. The man printed out a sheet and handed it out to the blonde.
"You can go there to my friend on the check-in 2 and he'll get your girlfriend further" The man explained earning a nod from the blonde.
"Uh she's not my girlfriend" Adrien responded sad, then looked at Kagami, which had taken from her pocket her smartphone and sighed.
"You're alright?" Adrien asked earning a nod from the Japanese woman.
"My battery is almost dead and my power bank too. I just wanted to inform my mother that I made it"
Adrien rolled his eyes down tragic, then took his smartphone out and handed it to Kagami.
"Here try to call her with my phone," Adrien said the woman, then his phone started to vibrate and the blonde moving his phone up to see a call coming from Tokyo. "Uh, could that be your mother's phone number?"
"Yes, it is," Kagami responded with a smile, then looked up at the blonde which nodded at Kagami to assure that he was fine with her attending it. Kagami took the phone and attended it.
"Hey mother it's me" Kagami announced then Adrien watched her talking and looked at the flight confirmation of the woman, then kept gazing at the woman moving her leg forward as if she was kicking on an empty can.
"You two seem to have a complicated relationship am I right?" The man asked causing Adrien to sigh.
"It's hard when the girl you loved for so long doesn't share the same interest she had a long time ago."
"Just talk to her about it. You will never know how she feels about you if you don't tell her that" The man suggested Adrien, which nodded slowly and saw Kagami chuckle and take the phone off her ear, then she gazed back at Adrien and the blonde walked towards the woman to take his smartphone back.
"What about your flight?" The brown-eyed girl questioned the blonde, which shook his head.
"Listen about that before as we missed Vladivostok and had to wait two hours until we finally got here....the reason I did that was...because I don't want you to get married to that guy"
"Listen Adrien, I know you're totally against it, but it's my obligation. I have no choice" Kagami explained Adrien, which looked dissatisfied as she didn't change the idea of the arrangement.
"You have a choice Kagami. It's your life after all and you should have your own preferences, which you should follow for your own right, not because your parents say so"
"It's sweet that you worry that much, but I can't escape my parents like that"
"Yes you can," Adrien said grabbing Kagami on her hands. "I escaped my father's hands to live my life on my own, together with my friends, you can do that too. No one would force you to do anything you don't want to"
"But what about you?" Kagami asked. "Aren't you forcing me to stop following the other path?" Kagami questioned, making Adrien wide his eyes in surprise.
"What?" Adrien asked quiet about the comment of the girl. "But I was trying to help you"
"You have been bringing this topic up a lot lately. Why does this bother you?"
Adrien opened his mouth to explain then he looked down avoiding eye contact with the woman. "Why does this matter to you that much?"
"I don't know, how I should explain that to you. It's complicated"
"There is nothing complicated, you're just making it complicated"
"I just can't see you getting married to someone you don't really love! Okay!" Adrien shouted at the Japanese woman, that glanced shocked at his harsh response.
"Then why are you even bothering to come to my wedding?" Kagami asked making Adrien look up at the woman, therefore he sighed dropping his hands down, while Kagami realized that and approached him. "Adrien..."
"I think I was insane" Adrien mentioned "See, if you catch the plane before it leaves. It was stupid from me to believe something that was there a long time ago would come back again" Adrien affirmed, therefore, Kagami thought about his words and wide her eyes in surprise as she remembered the day she left Paris, leaving her friend Adrien back.
"Wait Adrien...Are you trying to confess?" The Japanese woman asked, watching Adrien take his wallet out and hand her out a few cash bills. "No I don't want your money"
"Take it just in case" Adrien told the woman, which placed her hand over his looking up at the blonde.
"You have more intentions on why you want to stop this wedding and I think I can see it" Kagami alleged watching Adrien take his money away from her and shove it inside the pocket of her dress jacket.
"Yes but I know they don't matter. You're getting married and that's all you wanted to accomplish since we got trapped. I wasn't acting correctly myself" Adrien explained making Kagami sank her head a little at Adrien's words. "Please go before you miss your plane, I'll be fine"
Kagami opened her mouth to talk, then she refused to and dropped her head down. "Thank you for sustaining me until here. You were an excellent friend and I wish I would have been a worthy friend to you as you were to me" Kagami said quietly earning a nod from Adrien, which turned around heading to the exit of the airport leaving Kagami back, that covered her face feeling terrible about their misunderstanding.
