Best friends stuck in anime world

Chapter 8: We meet again in this world

The guests already arrived at Haruka's house. The grill were set and the backyard was ready for the BBQ party that was planned. Many of the guests were chit-chatting in the back. While there were two female guests in the living room chatting as while. Knock. Knock. One of the female guest opened the door, while the other couldn't because she was sitting on a wheelchair.

Jihyo was smiling while she was waiting for grandma to open the door. However, that smile on her face suddenly dissolve. She was about to breakdown. When that person who opened the door wasn't grandma, but it was Tzuyu. Through the door, she saw Mina on the wheelchair in the living room. All three of them came together and had a group hug, bursting into tears. While Haruka and Midorikawa were patiently waiting until this whole scene was finished.

"Uh em.", one of boy behind cleared his throat.

Jihyo wiped her tears and bring her friends to sit in the living. So, that Haruka and Midorikawa can hurry and set the party on fire. 

"How did you guys get here?", Jihyo asked.

Tzuyu and Mina looked at each other and giggle. Mina say, "It's a long story you wouldn't want to know, Jihyo. But, I can tell you if it wasn't for my accident and that guy, than I wouldn't have found you, or Tzuyu."

*****

The story started today, early in the morning. Remember when Mina had to stay in the hospital due to her ankle and that Tzuyu fainted in the middle of the street. When Tzuyu fainted, a kind old woman who was selling street food called an ambulance and got her to the same hospital where Mina was standing in. At that time, Hazuki came to Mina's room with a lunch bag. He packed rice, miso soup, and fried egg as Mina breakfast. When Mina was eating, he received as phone call from a friend, in which was Haruka, so he stepped out of the room for a minute. The door was opening. Mina looked at who it was, it was Haruki.

He smiled at her and asked, "How was the miso soup, good right?"

He was putting the containers back into the bag and set in a chair beside the bed. They kept having eye contact, in which made her feel shy. "Yeah. It was really delicious. So, who was calling a while ago?", Mina rely.

"Oh. It was my a friend. He just called to invite me to a BBQ party at his house. I'm just wondering if you'll like to come, too. Because it wouldn't be safe for a pretty injury girl to keep staying in the hospital without no bodyguard around."

On the last sentence, it made Mina choke on water. That she unexpectedly say, "Why would you care?" Before Hazuki could even rely back, she quickly respond that she'll go. Because who know that he'll change his mind and not let her go. Probably around 9 am, he and Mina was preparing to go to his friend house. She was wearing a cast around her ankle while he was holding the wheelchair. Before her eye, she saw a small group of nurse pulling a patient bed to one of the rooms. When she saw that patient, that looked just like Tzuyu. She thought she was just seeing things, but at the same time, she wasn't. She stopped in the middle of the hallway and quickly ran after the nurses to the room Tzuyu was held in.

Boom! There were many noise coming from the room. The patient heart rate suddenly stopped. At the door, the curtains were blocking her sight. Boom! So, she walked more into the room in a slow pace. Many more nurses were entering the room in a rush. One of them bumped into her, she almost collapse. Later, realize it was really Tzuyu once the nurse completely opened the curtain. Her heartbeat has now came back to normal after the third shot. Many nurse were leaving the room, while one nurse stayed behind to check if there any other symptoms.

"N-Nurse. I-Is she already? ", Mina asked, still in shock.

"While the patient is now out of danger. It's just a small minor, not a big deal. But, I'll come check her again once she awake. ", say the nurse.

"How long will it take she to wake up? A hour? A day? A,"

A doctor came in, interrupting Mina and says,"While based on her condition, she'll wake up soon. Like she say, it's a small minor. There's nothing you need to worry about. Probably when she wake, you could help calm her down and go have fun. Because she have been through soo much things."

*****

In the middle of the flashback, Jihyo suddenly interrupt the story with a question, "What! Are you okay now Tzuyu? What happened,"

"I'm completely fine now. I was just missing my boyfriend, that's all."

Jihyo looked at Tzuyu face respond. It seem like she was hiding something, like she doesn't want them to know. Doesn't she know how much it worry me when I heard about this. Can't she at least understand me, as her elder of the group. Even thought she lived away from her parents, she should still should consider us a family. As a result, through all these concern she says, "That's all? Really? Than how on earth would you explain the fact that your heart stopped then."

Mina couldn't do anything to stop this tension from rising. But, she still remember how the doctor said, "help calm her down and go have fun". She could tell that Tzuyu wasn't. She on the left, where the people were BBQing outside and saw one of the guys before." Hey, Jihyo. What's your relationship with that boy before." said Mina, trying to change the topic. 

"What boy?"

Mina pointed at Haruka. Jihyo follow where her fingers were pointing, realizing that Haruka was talking with a girl and grilling at the same time. As she continue watching, she saw him feeding a piece of meat to her. That girl gotta all shy and embarrassed in front of his friends. "That girl is Haruka ex-girlfriend, the one I told you about. So, don't try anything, okay?", say someone from behind. In which was Akiyama. 

In Korean, Jihyo said, "Tzuyu and Mina, this is his sister, Akiyama. She is really nosy and protected of his brother. Remember the guys that I was at the door with, those are her OLDER brothers. She's ALSO an idol like us as well." Akiyama crossed her arms and say, "Did you just talked behind my back? Y-You, err." There was a pause. She just quickly left and went outside. 

The back door opened again. Jihyo already fired up from inside and though that it was Akiyama again. So, she grab the pillow next to her and almost hit it at a young man. He was tall and had a wavy honey-blond hair that falls naturally between his magenta eyes. Beside his looks, he brought in a plate of grilled meats and vegetables and handed it to Mina. "Thank you, Hazuki. But you didn't have to come all the way here to give me this. " she says. "It's okay. I was just worry because you haven't ate lunch." he says. 

Jihyo could tell that Mina was beginning to blush. Her cheek were getting red and she was chunking. Before she even took a bite, Tzuyu on the other side elbowed Mina a couple of times. Then Mina almost forgot it, "Oh! Hazuki, these are my friends Tzuyu and Jihyo."

"It's nice to meet you Tzuyu and Jihyo", he says, while Mina took her first bites. When she was chewing on the meat, he spotted something on Mina lips, so he quickly wipe it off, causing her friends to blush. He left and went back outside. 

*****

Half of Haruka friends left already. they weren't many people in the backyard. it was just the servants, his parent, and ex-girlfriend left. Haruka had been grilling non-stop all day. It was the set of meat for the day, as he grilled, he looked at Jihyo laughing and playing with her friends for soo long. his ex-girlfriend, Kou walked up behind him and saw looking at Jihyo, she cleared her throat and he realized that the meat were burning. He quickly placed them on a plate and took off the apron, going inside the house to change because of the BBQ smells on his clothes, not knowing that Kou was there. It was as if she was a ghost because he didn't see her. 

In the living room, Jihyo saw Haruka passing by and told her friend that she's going to the bathroom. 

"Okay. But hurry up so you won't miss out all the fun.", said Mina.

She quickly followed Haruka to the basement. As soon as she reach the last step, she was pulled inside the closet. In just a quick flash, she was in someone arm, her month was covered with their hand. It was really dark and the door was slightly close. But,that person who was holding her tightly, made Jihyo feel afraid that if she made one single wrong move, something bad will happen. She looked up at that person, it was an young man. He wasn't wearing any mask, so that meant that she wasn't getting kidnapper, or anything. However, it was hard to see who it was because his head was turned to the opposite side.
