His Spring Symphony

Chapter Fifty: An Unexpected Member

{A/N} I've been writing this story for three years and I'm so attached with these two main characters. I'm done but it's pretty hard to grasp that I finished writing this.

Epilogue coming soon (and one extra chapter)
ENJOY!

HARU

    Her head wouldn't stop throbbing and it ruined her day. It caused her to spent her lunchtime going to a drugstore near her office to buy painkillers.

    "Are you sure you drank too much?" Wanda asked as she strolled the aisle for her shampoo.

    "Five glass of strong bourbon," Haru stated.

    "But it has been two days since the party. Your body that terrible with alcohol? Make it make sense."

    "Yeah." Sasha's peeking through the shelf beside her. Wanda was off work today and Sasha worked nearby.

    Last Sunday was Hunter's second branch officially opened in Queens, they had a welcoming party, exclusively for their friends and family. He had work hard on that shop and all of them partied hard. A little bit too hard as she, drank five glasses of alcohol and was terribly drunk.

    "Stop frowning." Sasha pressed her finger between Haru's brows. "Sorry, I'm just very dizzy right now." She knew she wasn't the type that drinks, but seeing her loosen up her guard had made people around her amused by her; she danced, joined karaoke with Vladimir, and actually had fun. Hunter said she was crazy flirting to him too. She probably led him on for sex and Hunter tucked her to bed instead.

    She took a board of painkillers and waited for Wanda to take her stuff at the end shelf from where she stood. Haru was woozy and couldn't concentrate on her work and she felt so nauseated since yesterday. Gosh, this happened to her, because of drinking? I'm so lame.

    "Shoot!" Sasha said and went to the same aisle as Wanda. "Thanks for reminding me. I need tampons."

    Haru didn't register until both of her friends came back to here; Wanda held a shampoo and Sasha a pack of tampons. Wanda bent to put things in the basket Haru held, looking up at her pale face. "Haru."

   "God." Her heart was about to combust, lurching, punching, upside down feelings took hold of her stomach.

   Wanda stood, held the basket, and Haru couldn't focus on either of them because her heart was pounding in her eyeballs.

    "Are you okay?" Sasha's voice echoed around her.

    "No." Haru squeezed her eyes closed, trying to clear the film of panic from the surface. Opening them, she met both of them. "I haven't had a period in like...two months."

HUNTER

    Hunter opened his eyes and grunted at how rigid his muscles felt. He slept on the dining room chair, again. Yep, back pains would come through the next day.

    The night seemed so warm and he was sweating on his chair. He was exhausted but he had to do his business's bookkeeping since it was the end of the month. He has been staring at his calculator and his laptop for hours. One more calculation for this month and he would be done. He stretched and then gazed at the clock hung in front of him. It was fifteen minutes past nine and Haru wasn't home still. She did inform him in the afternoon that she would be home late because she wanted to go to see a doctor for her headache. But he was too late.
