Playgirl (anime)

Chapter 9://

"Takato!" the purple haired girl in the white beanie exclaimed as she grabbed my arm. "Takato I didn't here from you all night.. you weren't ignoring me, right?"

Yes, I was dating Ichiko, the short girl that had always protected me from her evil cousin, Satashi. Even though we had been dating for two weeks now, my mind was still focused on Fukumi, who still hadn't talked to me, not since..

"Hey... are you listening?"

"Oh sorry.. anyway, you were saying?"

"I tried to text you last night.. why weren't you answering?"

I scratched my neck in embarrassment. "Sorry about that, I guess I was tired, studying makes you tired, ya know?"

I had a sudden flashback of last night. I had actually been ignoring Ichiko's urgent texts.. I didn't feel like being in a relationship with any other girl.. I just couldn't get over the pink-haired cat girl, Fukumi Hayashi.

"Okay,... actually,.. do you think it would be okay if I came over, and maybe met your mom and dad?"

"Mom." I corrected. I didn't want Ichiko to meet her, because she would make it her personal mission to get me and Fukumi together.

"Maybe... I don't know..she has been really sick lately..."

"Oh really? Maybe I can come over and help with chores than!"

"No!.." I panicked.. "She needs to sleep,.. besides, I can take the chores myself!"

"Really?"

"Yea, after all, I love doing chores!" I remarked as I ruffled my brown hair back.

"Well, okay than..." Ichiko sighed as she hugged me. "See you after class than!"

I watched the purple haired girl walked down the hallway to her class. The only perk of dating Ichiko, was that Satashi had stopped bullying me all together... even if I wasn't being bullied, I wasn't happy. I couldn't let my relationship with the play-girl end here... could I?

----Later----

Another day had passed. Because it was so close to Christmas, it was dark outside now. It was also the last day before Christmas brake. A small puff of smoke rose in front of my face with each breath out. The sky was also clouded over, and many classmates were saying it would probably snow tonight. I tightened the gray scarf around my neck.

I tightened my shoulder bag and walked through the cold down the flight of stairs. Than I stopped. It was Fukumi.

"Scum bag!" one boy laughed as he tugged on one of her pigtails.

"Hey, stop!" she warned as she tried to make her way through the bullies.

"So, you think that you could have the last word in our relationship, and end it like this?" Satashi started.

"Leave me alone.."

"Hahahaha.... I'm not letting you win, play-girl!" Satashi spit.

I looked around the school yard for anyone else that was witnessing this.. but of course, I was the only one. I decided to ignore the whole event and go home, after all, we weren't dating, and I didn't like her....

"Come on, please stop!" Fukumi begged, as a few tears rolled down her face.

"Geez, she's crying, I should probably do something,... but..."

Satashi punched her side. "Awww, she's crying... we want screams, let's beat her more!!"

I kept trudging onward. "She hurt me.. she is getting what she deserves!"
