I remain speechless while staring at Ryouske-san with my eyes on the verge of crying. This can't be, He can't just cancel it all of a sudden. He needs Chiyoko more than anything else in order to fully control their company, and to finally take back everything Fujioka stole from our family. What is he even thinking? I thought he has made up his mind on this--even to the point of letting me go. Now that I'm here, and have decided to leave everything behind, why would he do so??? Right now, My body's immobile as if I'm petrified. My heart's pounding, my stomach's churning. I don't even know what to say or do as of the very moment.
"He caught her cheating--and what's worse, he has seen her with another man. That's why."
"But, she loves him so much?"
"No he doesn't. He apparently loves someone else. That's for sure. Their engagement's just staged after all."
I clenched my sweaty fists as I gulped.
"Whatever." I replied. "I-I don't care about him, or anything else that involves our family and our business. I've had enough!"
With haste, I rudely walked out on him as I exited the shop. I walked as far as I could, wandering aimlessly into the busy streets of Oxford City. I could barely breathe. Why would he suddenly cancel everything now that I'm...
"Yuki??"
I didn't mind who's calling out to me. I continue on, ignoring everything around me. I don't want them to see me like this. I don't want to bother everyone else with this nonsense.
"YUKI!"
The person then grabs my hand as he pulls me to face him. I gasped upon seeing Daiki in front of me.
"Why are you even ignoring me? Idiot, you could be lost here."
I must not cry. Not in front of him.
"I-I'm sorry," I forced a smile. "I didn't hear you. W-where's Hitomi??"
"She had to go first. Her dad gave her errands to do anyway."
"oh. Then, shall we head back?"
"Are you alright?" He worriedly asks me.
"I-I'm fine. It's just my head hurts quite a bit. Maybe because of the alcohol I drank last night."
He remains silent as he gazes me seriously. Apparently, he knows I'm bothered. Why would I still wonder? Daiki can see right through me--I can't even lie to him. But right now, I just don't want to bother him again. I promised myself that while we stay here--I want us to be happy, to make him happy because after all, I chose to be here, with him. I don't want to hurt him any longer. Before he could even get more suspicious of my strange behavior, I turned around as I continue to walk.
"Yuki."
I stopped. I know he remains there standing, waiting for me to tell him what's really happening, waiting for me to finally open up to him. My whole body's trembling. Emotions are stirring inside of me so much I could no longer take any of it. I feel lost. I want to...I just want to...
Slowly, I turned around with my eyes on the ground. Uncontrollably, I ran towards him--embraced him as I buried my face on his chest.
The tears I was repressing a while ago came rushing, falling into my cheeks.
I surrender now. I feel helpless.
"Please..." I sobbed. "Promise me--don't leave me."
