At the park

“Remember the wish?”

Shida looked at the clover leaf ring.

“Hmm? What’s with that?“

“What if my wish is to be married?“

Shida looked at Ryuzaki straight in the eye.

“Huh? I don’t get you.“

“I want it to be you, Ryuzaki. I want to take my chances with you. Can you be my wish?“

Ryuzaki held Shida’s hand and looked at her eye to eye.

“I want to.. But do you love me? Can you handle kissing me or hugging me or giving your soul to me?“

"I..."

Ryuzaki touched her lips using his two fingers.

“You don’t need hurry, you’ll  see.. we’ll both know the answer some day.“

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Shida was crying all night. She got tired and fell asleep on Ryuzaki’s shoulder. Ryuzaki carried her on his back all the way from the park to their street. When he reached Ryosuke’s apartment, he was thinking if he will knock on the door or just took Shida to his apartment.

*knock! Knock! *

Ryosuke opened the door, and was shocked to see Ryuzaki.

“Uhm, She fell asleep.“

“Ah. I'll take it from here.”

When Ryosuke was about to take Shida to her room. He turned around for a bit and said

“ANO….  Thank you.” To Ryuzaki for the first time.

Ryuzaki just nodded and closed the door.  After a while Ryuzaki knocked on the door once again.

“Can we talk?“

“Huh?. Err.. Sure. Come in.“ Ryosuke was shocked and was hesitating to let him in since it’s the first time they’ll talk seriously.

“It’s Shida.“

“What about her?”

“She’s been crying all night. Did something came up?”

“Nothing. And besides even if there is, I won’t mind telling you.“ Ryosuke said coldly.

“Do you know she asked me to marry her?“

Ryosuke  looked at him and was quiet for a minute. Inside his mind it was. “EH!! what the?!” But instead of telling what esd on his mind he calmly said, “So what are you planning to do?“

“I’ll marry her, and do everything just to take her away from you.“

Ryosuke gave him a smirk as he hid clenching his fist.

“Then do so..“

Ryosuke then, reached for his pocket.

“Here. It’s yours. You can throw it if you want to ,just keep that away from me.“ He said as he gave him Shida’s engagement ring.
