Polaris and Sirius~(Jewel Sequel)~KnB~Kise Ryouta

★18★ Deep love

If love was like the ocean, how far do you want to sink? Do you want to sink to the point you can no longer be rescued? Or do you wish to go back to shore and wait for the next time you're ready to jump in it again? 

Takahashi Rin thought about that question and she's got her answer; why should she have to give up? Her love for Kasamatsu Yukio was something no one could understand. When she was in America for the very first time, she found it hard to make any friends. It was Kasamatsu the one who reached a hand out to her and befriended her first. He's shy, he's kind, hard working, honest, a genuine guy. 

Rin knew he's the one for sure; they have a passion for music and their conversations flowed naturally just like a river. No matter how she looked at it, they belong together. So why? 

"I have a girlfriend back in Japan. I'm sorry, I can't return your feelings..."

Rin confessed to him on Valentine's day. Her feelings were not returned. Why? What did she do to deserve something like this? If she was his girlfriend, she would write to him as much as possible, use Skype to talk to him often, get in contact with him somehow. She can't understand why Kasamatsu would be in love with a girl who was far away from him. 

She waited for the day he will say the relationship was not working but that day never came. What came instead was him announcing that he will leave America and go back to Japan. 

"Kasamatsu-kun, you're really going back?" 

"Yeah. I really want to see her again." 

"You're not afraid that her feelings might have changed?" 

"I never thought of something like that..." 

"Long distant relationships almost never work, you know?" 

"I know that." 

"If you knew it will become long distant, why are you still trying to keep a hold of it?" 

"Who knows? Maybe it's because I am still very in love with her." 

"I see..." 

"Heh, this is my first ever party since I came here. Honestly, I don't really know why I came to the party in the first place. All it is it's just a bunch of noisy students drinking to the point of vomitting..." 

"Open up and be social, Kasamatsu-kun."

"You're one to talk, Takahashi..."

"Miss, you have arrived." 

The black haired girl finally paid attention to the present and she noticed that she really have arrived at her destination. Tsukihana University was huge, she thought to herself as she paid for the fare. She got out of the taxi and wondered where Kasamatsu would be. She can't wait to see him...

"That girl is cute..." 

"You think she is a new student?" 

"She is so cute!"

Rin can hear the boys talk about her and she ignored them. She will never look at little boys like them.

*Ding Ling...*

She checked her cell phone to see what email she received. She smiled at the name of the sender.
