AKARI NEARLY kissed Mikey.
What the hell was she fucking thinking?
Mikey was right. She should've just refused the dare. She was just too afraid to disappoint her friends that's why she was provoked to do the kiss. She couldn't even blame Emma because the blonde girl had no idea she was seeing someone. It was completely her fault that it almost happened in the first place. She never told them she had a boyfriend. The only ones who knew she was in a relationship were her cousin, Takemichi, and Muto.
It was as if she was being unfaithful to Izana.
No, that wasn't it.
She was UNFAITHFUL.
Why the hell was she even in a relationship if she was not that loyal to her boyfriend? Izana was being good to her all this time and this was how she repay his kindness?
She was being a hypocrite.
What if the situation got reversed? What if Izana kissed another girl? What would she do?
"..."
She didn't want to ever think about it.
When Mikey took her for a swim earlier after the dare, it was then something struck her like a thunderbolt. She realized too late that she made a mistake.
Her guilt was swallowing her up. She was guilty as shit! She didn't want to do the same stupidity ever again. Argh!!!
Stupid!
Stupid!
Stupid idiot!!!
You're an idiot, Akari!
God, she wanted to cry for being so stupid! She was acting immaturely just now. She hated herself so much. She was so ashamed.
She loved Izana. She loved him more than life itself. He was one of the best blessings that came into her life. He was her world. And yet, what she did was unforgivable. It was despicable. Why on earth did she think it was just a friendly kiss from her best friend? She was being unreasonable! A single kiss could still ruin her relationship with Izana.
Akari finally made up her decision. She will apologize to him once she returned to Yokohama. She had to be honest with him as she didn't want to lose his trust. No more hiding secrets.
She will tell him everything.
"Akari, what are you doing here on the shore alone?" a voice came out of nowhere. "Are you okay?"
The teen girl only hugged her knees and curled herself into a ball, sniffing. It was almost nightfall and all of them were still at the beach, packing their things as they were about to leave soon. They were also now in their casual clothes. "No. But I'll be fine, Take-chan."
