I Love You Again and Again

Chapter 3

Days passed, Saira's mother was preparing for her debut as an international top model and was busy as always, while Saira made an everyday schedule to balance her diet and studies.
Saira's everyday schedule was to wake up early in the morning, work out, takes a satisfying warm morning bath, do her morning skincare, eat healthy breakfast, Study and review for the exams, break for 30 minutes every 3 hours, prepare for lunch, go back to study, workout for 30 minutes take a shower, eat a light filling healthy dinner, study again, take a relaxing bath before sleep, do her night skin routine, do some stretching, drink warm milk, online shopping for 1 hour, look for a new healthy recipe for 30 min, and then get to sleep before 11 o'clock.
Saira wanted to lose weight before moving to the unknown family house, therefore, Saira worked out hard, ate a healthily balanced meal, and studied even harder so that she could get admitted to the same high school as Katashi.
Every time she feels tired she would look at Katashi's number on her phone. She wanted to try and call him so many times, however, she had no questions about any subject or any other excuses. She thought of faking a question or two but found herself so awkward. Saira was satisfied with having Katashi's number. Saira was so surprised by her own behavior. Just his number could make her go over the moon and put her in a good mood.
While staring for a long time at Katachi's number, a number from abroad called her. Saira assumed that it must be her father since there is no one she knows except him who would call her from abroad. Saira picked up the line.
▫️Saira: "Dad? When did you change your number?"
However, the one who answered her was not Saira's father, but a stranger's voice.
👤: "Sorry, but I'm not dad. I'm your older brother, Oliver! I took your number from..." Saira didn't give him the chance to complete his sentence and interrupted him.
▫️Saira: "Sorry, I don't remember that my mother had given birth to anyone except me. Goodbye." Saira closed the line on Oliver.
[the USA, at Saira's father house]
▫️Oliver: " What?! ... Is she playing hard to get or something?!" said while looking at his phone, looking troubled.
▫️SF(Saira's father): "Did you get to talk with her?"
Asked Saira's father, who was sitting in the same room as Oliver.
▫️Oliver: "Yes and No? Got to hear her voice for a second and then she hanged up. I think you should have called her first. She was expecting you."
▫️SF: " Is that so? Then I'll call her." Saira's father picked up his phone and dialed Saira's number, however, Saira did not pick up.
▫️Oliver: " Is she picking up?"
Saira's father kept calling Saira but couldn't get hold of her.
▫️SF: " The phone is ringing but she is not picking up. I think she is ignoring me."
Saira's father stopped calling Saira, he sighed and stared at her latest picture, which Kohana(SM) sent him.
▫️SF: "She sure has grown up a lot... And she lost some weight. She is becoming beautiful day by day."
▫️Oliver: "Maybe she is in love? Or has got a boyfriend? You know girls change when they are in love."
Ren (Oliver's mother) came into the room with a desserts plate set and tea.
▫️Ren: "Don't say that as if boys don't change! Boys change a lot and they make it so obvious too!" Said with a pouting face.
▫️Oliver: "yes yes I got it sorry."
▫️SF: "... She hasn't told me anything and Kohana did not mention anything about it."
Ren walked closer to Masahiro (SF) and put her hands on his shoulder.
▫️Ren: " She doesn't have to be in love, you know. She is a teenager on her way to becoming a fully blooming flower, it's natural for her to take care of herself, and besides that Kohana-San is a beautiful model so maybe she got inspired by that. Oh! And don't forget that she is born from a beautiful mother and handsome father so she is a natural beauty and that's natural to happen."
▫️SF: "Uhm, I think you are right."
▫️Oliver: " (sigh) I can not stand this lovey-dovey atmosphere. I'm out of here. I have to go to the shooting set soon."
▫️Ren: " Ok, take care on your way there~"
▫️Oliver: "Aha, got it."

[Tokyo, at Saira's apartment.]
Saira's phone kept ringing. Saira looked at the number that she recognizes (her father's number) but she didn't bother to pick it up. She put her phone on silent and let the phone ring by itself.
▫️Saira: " Call as much as you want. I'll ignore you today. Serves you, who told you to give that stranger my number. And what? He said that he is my older brother??? Our parents haven't yet gotten married and he is calling himself an older brother?! What a joke..." said sulking while facing her phone, then she put it away and went back to focusing on her studies. Saira was bothered by Oliver's call. She did not meet him yet and did not know him. She indeed heard about him from her mother but she hasn't met the real him yet. In the past, Saira always wished if she had an older caring brother, but now she has been used to be alone so getting an older brother out of nowhere is so sudden. Saira did not like it like that.
••••••••••••••
When Saira was overweight, she had an expressionless ugly face, but now that she lost so much weight and became healthy, she got a cool expressionless gorgeous pretty face. Saira did not wear the expressionless face deliberately, but it just turned out like that since she could not or did not have to express her feelings or have a reaction to things since she was all alone from a young age. However, Saira noticed how different she has become after falling in love with Katashi. She found herself loving and caring for herself more and her facial expression would change from time to time, and the most important that she started to smile more often and like herself.
Before the last exam day, Saira prepared herself and dressed up to go to Nani Ogawa's wedding. Before going out she checked herself in the mirror with satisfaction, proud of the result of her hard work, she checked up her things and the present that she had prepared for Nani.
As Saira checked everything, she was set to go. Saira called out a taxi to drive her to the wedding hall. Although Saira's parents give her a big amount of allowance enough to buy a whole building every month, Saira did not waste it and did use the money wisely.
Usually, Saira would transport by bus or trains because the taxi is expensive to travel with. However, she took it this time because she did not want to be late. Saira planned to go early before the guests come. She wanted to congratulate Nani, give her her present and leave. As most of the guests are celebrities, close friends, and other public figures, Saira assumed that there might be some reporters. Since most, of the guests, are public figures and know each other, Saira wanted to avoid trouble and attention for being the only unknown one among the crowds.
As soon as Saira arrived she called Nani to tell her in which room she is since she is still dressing up and preparing.
Nani told Saira to wait in the hall and that she will let her friend comes to Saira and lead her to the room because the hall is very huge and she might get lost.
Saira waited in the hall as Nani told her.
Not long, a beautiful elegant lady appeared in front of Saira. Saira was amazed by that lady's elegant look.
▫️Saira: "Waah... She looks so elegant and beautiful as a swan..." said in her inner thoughts. And when the lady's eyes met with Saira, Saira snipped out of her thoughts. The lady walked closer to Saira.
▫️👩🏻: " Excuse me, you must be Saira-Chan, right?!" asked with a gentle smile.
▫️Saira: "yes."
▫️👩🏻: "Nice to meet you, I'm Nani's friend. Tadame Kobayashi."
Saira immediately bowed politely.
▫️Saira: "Ah! Nice to meet you. I'm Saira Aoki."
Tadame smiled elegantly at Saira and led her to the room.
Just a moment Saira was flustered so she did not have the time to think about anything, but now that she looked at Tadame closely, she felt like she saw her some where but at the same time she was sure that she did not meet her before. Saira felt familiar with her ( She looks so familiar, did we meet before? But I'm sure that this is our first time meeting...And did she say, Kobayashi?... Nah, Impossible there is no such coincidence. It's not like he (Katashi) is the only one who has that surname) said Saira in her inner thoughts.
Tadame noticed Saira looking at her, so she turned to Saira and smiled.
▫️Tadame: "Is there something?"
Saira flinched.
▫️Saira: "Ah! no, nothing at all. I just thought that you looked familiar, but this is my first time meeting you."
▫️Tadame: " Is that so?! Hmm... Maybe we knew each other in our previous lives?"
▫️Saira: "Yes maybe," said with a smile.
Saira and Tadame smiled at each other. Their interaction and conversations were so friendly on their way to Nani's room.
As they arrived at the room. Saira was so impressed at how beautiful Nani looked in her wedding dress. Saira walked closer to Nani.
▫️Saira: "Wahh! You look so beautiful Nani-San."
Nani turned to Saira as she also was impressed at how Saira changed in these few months.
▫️Nani: " Saira-Chan!! OMG!!! You look so amazing!!! Wow!! You have changed a lot!!" Nani hugged Saira tightly and turned her around.
▫️Nani: " I think you can debut now as a model!"
▫️Saira: "Now now, let's not talk about me. It's your day today Nani-San."
▫️Nani: " Oh! Right! You are right. Oh! By the way, let me introduce you guys. Saira this is Tadame-Chan, the one who you will stay with, and Tadame-Chan, this is Saira-Chan, the girl who I told you about."
▫️Tadame: " (smile) nice to meet you again Saira-Chan~ I'm looking forward to spending time with you~," said while facing Saira with a warm-hearted smile.
Saira was surprised she did not expect to meet the one who she will stay with this soon.
Saira immediately bowed politely.
▫️Saira: " Ah! Me too! I'm looking forward to it! Please look after me kindly!" said with a flustered reaction.
Nani and Tadame chuckled at Saira's flustered cute reaction.
