Chapter 33: Another Member

"Me... in love with Kyou?.... that's... that's just absurd! Yeah! That's just absurd! I came to that conclusion because of what Sora said! My head was already in a mess so Sora's words somwhow influenced me! That's it!

With a loud sigh, my legs finally gave and I immediately fell on top of my bed.

Love him? That's just.... absurd.

I know I started to 'date' him because I wanted to know what love is...

But there is just no way an idiot like him would make me fall in love with him. It's just impossible.

At the very least, Kyou is someone I really trust. But lovinf him? I doubt that...

I really do.

I think.

...

It's this place again.

The continous ticking sound and the oh so lifeless sky. It was like last time. And just like last time, that girl was there again.

"Just who are you?"

I know my words reached her. It was loud. Heck, it echoed throughout this lifeless place. Despite it being an open space place, I was sure I heard an echo. Thus, all the more reason for that girl to hear me... yet...

She did not make any motion that indicates the fact that she acknowledged my presence. Just like back then, she waa staring at nothingness with her lifeless eyes.

I wanted to reach out to her. To ask if she was okay or not. To ask why was she in my dream. To aak who is she really in the first place. So many questions yet my mouth could not open at all.

And just like always, the girl would have an eerie smile on her face and once more the world turned black.

...

*beep**beep**beep*

"That alarm clock..... one day I'll burn it down to the ground."

Again, another day has arrivee and once more I have to go to school.

I wonder if I should talk about this with Kyou.... then again, he might just laugh it off or plainly ignore it considering how stupid is sounds. True, he never sees me as a robot, in fact, he was the one that told me that my logic is stupid....but the thought of me being im love with him. That alone is just... impossible.

It really is impossible and yet.. why does my heart ache when I admit it? Why?

"Good moring, Haru-chii!"

"Huh? Moring, Mizuki."

"Hey~ I was wondering, are you going to have lunch with Kyou-kun again today?"

"Uh... well maybe."

"Hm? What's wrong? Did something happened between you and Kyou-kun? Have you started to doubt your love?"

Mizuki had a cheeky smile on her face as she brought her face up close to me that I could not help but feel creeped out by it.

"Urgh, that's not it and you're too close, Mizuki."

First off, there was no love in our relationship anyway. Why would there be any doubt in it? That just doesn't make any sense at all. But then again, there was no way I am telling her that.

"Haru... oh, Mizuki."

"Kyou?"

"Kyou-kun!"

Immediately, I saw Mizuki glomp on Kyou as if he was her hugging toy. Somehow, I really don't like it. Sure, we are a 'couple' so it was to be expected that I won't like seeing him acting with another woman like that. But really, I don't like it at all. I just don't.
