The bunny prince and the girl ✓

Chapter - 24

In previous chapter when Mr. Takahashi was telling the story of the bunny land and about prince Akihiko to Inoue. Then out of the blue Takemichi arrived...

"Inoue..." Takemichi suddenly appeared when Mr. Takahashi was talking to her. "Inoue, Mr. Takahashi, what are you doing here. Is everything okay? Inoue?" he asked in surprise. " Takemichi... everything is fine. We were talking about some school related work. But what are you doing here?" Mr. Takahashi asked back. "I was looking for Inoue because she had gone somewhere without informing anyone." "Oh..." Mr. Takahashi sighed slightly and tried to help Inoue regain her consciousness . "Inoue, are you okay? Look, Takemichi is here for you". After she regained her senses she was astounded to see Takemichi. "Mr. Takahashi you said you were talking about school-related work. isn't it ? Then why is she looking so worried? Please tell me what's going on?". After hearing that, he felt like it would be the perfect time for him to remember everything about Minamoto. "Okay, I'll tell you everything," he said moving forward. "No, you can't. He still can't remember him, " Inoue murmured . "But before I tell you anything, you have to drink this potion now. It will give you energy to listen to me. " " Why do I need to drink it just to listen to you ? " " If you want to know what we were talking about. You have to drink it or else I'm not going to tell you anything".

He was curious to know about the matter because of Inoue's involvement. So, he drank that potion in one go. "Yuk ! it's disgusting" he gave a strange facial expression as he drank it. "Mr. Takahashi what did you give him?" Inoue was really scared. "Oh my girl. Just wait a little while, you will know everything". While responding to Inoue, he murmured "memory rewind". And suddenly Takemichi put his hand on his head and shouted "Aa, it's hurting, it's hurting... it's damn hurting... ". "Takemichi..." Inoue was frightened when she saw him in that condition. She stepped towards him. "No, Ichika-chan don't go near him. He's going to remember everything. I brought this potion especially for you. But you remembered everything before I arrived". He closed his eyes and suddenly he began to see the past in front of him. He saw everything from the very beginning. How he entered playschool for the first time, how he met Hina and Inoue and then he saw Minamoto. He remembered how he first fought with him for Inoue. And he also remembered what he once told him, " Minamoto, I think only you can make her happy. I saw how you were getting frustrated seeing Inoue in that condition. So, promise that you will never let her suffer again. You know in her childhood everyone used to tease her, bully her. So, today you make me sure that you will protect her, no matter what happens, you will never let her get hurt again. Promise me" It was the day Inoue fainted in the middle of the play at the school's cultural program." Wait... how could I forget such an important thing. How can I forget the guy who challenged me on his second day at school. how can I be so stupid? How can I forget that jerk. How can I ?" He started questioning himself in his mind. Meanwhile "Takemichi do you know Minamoto Akihiko?" Mr. Takahashi asked. " Yes, absolutely....that jerk. I will never forget him, " he said with a shout. "Well, I am glad you remembered everything". "What just happened? "Inoue mumbled as if she didn't understand anything. " Now let's go I want to meet the rest of your friends". "Wait, can you tell me what's going on?" He stopped Mr. Takahashi while questioning. "I'll tell you everything. But in the presence of all your friends. No more questions. Now, let's go," he added as he continued moving forward. Inoue and Takemichi were both confused, yet they kept on walking with him. On the way, Takemichi wondered and asked himself, "I know I don't deserve to live with Inoue together. So I asked him to stay with her. Then why did I tell her how I truly feel... Am I an idiot?

"Oh, there they are" Fuji shouted seeing them coming. "Ah Gengi...Wait...he's Mr. Takahashi? Isn't he? " Sato was furious as Takemichi left her midway. And had gone somewhere without saying anything. But she was shocked to see Mr. Takahashi too. "Hina, Sato" Inoue came running."Yo, Guys!" Takemichi waved as he saw his friends. But he got a punch from Sato for disappearing somewhere without informing anyone. And she did the same to Inoue too. After dealing with them she was about to say something to Mr. Takahashi . But he interrupted her saying, "Before you say anything. I want you all to have this wonderful drink. I brought this especially for you". "Wonderful drink? Huh?" Takemichi knew very well what that wonderful drink tasted like. So, he made a disgusting face. First of all, everyone was already surprised to see him there . And now all of a sudden he started behaving like the sweetest man ever. But Inoue convinced them to drink. Because she knew it well that even if it tastes bad, it's still the only thing that can help them remember Minamoto. Everyone drank it with one gulp. They were all behaving the same way Takemichi did. Keeping their hands on their head, they screamed. After feeling a little relieved he asked "Do you know a guy named Minamoto Akihiko ?". "Of course we know him" replied Hina. "Well where is he? He didn't come with us?" Sato said looking around . We will tell you everything but I think we should go now. The festival is about to end right...?" said Mr. Takahashi as he went on. "What? I wanted to eat more yakitori" said Sato, making a strange face. "Did you say something?" The way Mr. Takahashi looked at her . She got scared after all he's their teacher. " I think we should go " Inoue tried to normalize the atmosphere. And they left. They reached Grandma Chio's place. And she was already standing outside the house. " Are we too late? " Sato asked while swallowing some spit. "I don't think so?" Takemichi replied.
