Chapter 11: Secrets Revealed
A week has passed since the happening of the sleepover at Len’s place. We were still talking and all was well and we managed to go to each other’s house one night to finish of our studies.
Of course, he did remind me about me and him coming to meet Meiko again. I wasn’t very comfortable with the fact that I was going to see her, but Len didn’t mind.
“Why are you here so early?” I hear a familiar sound from behind me which brings me out of my thoughts.
I turn around and smile to see Len. “I was just finishing off some work that Rei asked me to do for the committee plans during the festival.” He hovers over the chair to see the written pieces of paper laid out roughly on the wooden table.
“I see…” He says. I could hear vibrating in his pocket. “Ahh…I got to answer the call.” He says calmly heading out.
“Ghee! Just when I wanted to ask him something!” I sigh and push my chair in and start flicking the pen around with my finger.
I put my head on the table and slowly shut my eyes; I wish Len was here with me.
The door is suddenly pushed open with Gumi running to me and giving me a hug. “H-hey I was sleeping!”
“Nee! Gomen Gomen!” She says taking the seat next to me and playing with her phone while poking her tongue out. Another person quietly comes through the door, it was Ia who was holding a ton of books and a pencil case. “Konichiwa, Gumi-San, Miku-San” I nod my head in my reply but instead Gumi jumps out and gives her a big hug.
Rei finally arrives with her school bag which looked really heavy, she said hello to everyone and walked inside the office.
“She seems quiet today” I say although there was no one listening to me.
A knock comes through the door, I turn my head and could see 2 people standing there. I got out of my seat and opened the door to fall crash down on the floor. “ow..” I touch my head.
It was Luka and Rin giving me huge grins as they walked inside. “So this is what you do…Sugoi!” I hear Rin say. Luka nods and takes a glimpse at everything.
“Im back…” I hear someone say in between yawning’s, it was Len who was holding to juice Box’s.
“Hey! You’re the guy that rejected Miku!” I hear Rin say.
“Eh…I…uh…well…” He says hesitating. “Spill it.” Luka says coldly.
I jump in front of them. “Its not like that guys, the truth is well…he…we…can we talk somewhere private?” They both nod and I led them outside.
“The thing is, I was planning to tell you earlier but…-“ Len finishes of my sentence. “Miku and I are officially dating.” He says calmly. I blush at that sudden move, and look over to see Luka and Rin’s shocked face.
“Y-YOU’RE DATING!!” I hear Rin yell. I cover her mouth with my hands and slowly pull back.
“Yeah…Long story short he…liked me too.” I say averting my eyes.
They still have shocked faces. “We’ll talk to you later Miku!” I hear Luka say. They run off.
That was awkward...I look over at Len who was smiling, I wonder why?
“Ah Miku, I forgot to mention that we have official arrangements of when we’re going to be meeting Meiko. It’s at the train station at 11:00, okay?” I nod slowly. Why do I feel like someone’s watching us?
