Chapter 12 : Delicious x Not x Tasty
~~~
-Kurapika-
She's just a complete stranger, covered in dark cloak when I laid my eyes on her before. Yet I haven't get even a slightest bit of idea that she was about to strike a surge within me.
The first time I heard her voice, my heart seems to skipped a beat. I knew then that something is strange about her. She completely sounded like--
Her.
But more mature. Even after all those years, I wouldn't dare to forget every single thing about her.
The moment her appearance was exposed, she doesn't know how she brought calamity in me. With all those long dark strands, and a pair of familiar orbs, I almost believed that she was her.
But she wasn't. Her hair has different hue, as well as her eyes, even darker than the girl I knew. And her name may sound similar yet still different.
I was wondering if I'm just making a complete fool out of myself, or my longing was beyong control anymore.
There are times that I seem to can't understand myself. When I hold her, it feels so sure. And now that I have a clearer view of her face, she's getting more and more of her image.
Chizumi. I'm still not quite sure where she is, or even how she is. But she's still haunting me in my dreams everytime I falls asleep. I don't know what to believe anymore.
I want to keep holding on to the thought that she's still alive. But as my search keeps on getting nothing, my hope is fading.
If this is yearning that I feel towards this girl on my arms, I should completely discard it. She have nothing to do with Chizumi.
But if there is one thing yet to prove... be it your eyes.
Of scarlet.

My eyes fluttered open under the faint sunlight, gaining my consciousness as I felt myself carried by someone. And that someone is--
"Kurapika?!" I've completely wide awake now after realizing that Kurapika's carrying me all along.
"How was your feeling? Are you better now?" He asked, worried.
I sighed, blush creeping silently in my cheeks. "Y-yeah. Kind of,"
"Well, we're almost there, just hang on..." he said as if not thinking to let me run along.
"U-uhm... well, I can run along, you know," I mumbled awkwardly.
"Nope. You're still a bit feeble so better gain more rest for awhile," I just shut my lips tight and leaned on his chest, taking the moment.
"A-arigato... gozaimasu," He smiled.
The scene earlier flashed back like a gush of haze, making me shut my eyes for a bit. I'm still wondering how it really happened.
Am I being uncontrollable?
Or is it my--
I gasped under my breath. No way. I cannot be...
The urge to kill. Bloodlust.
For now, it will be my primary hint about my scarlet eyes. It may be, it may be not. I'm yet to find out.

We arrived just in time. Kurapika put me down carefully as he catch his breath. I felt guilty, he had to carry me all along. I'm such a nuisance.
