Chapter.. 3

A couple’s Quarrel

  In the class

“Mikimoto sensei happened to be pregnant as a result of that I’m gonna continue be your homeroom teacher”

“Kyyyaahh�"yeaahh” Between all the students that celebrated for a min. There was a little emotionless girl that raised her hand “sorry but 3 mins had passed, shouldn’t we start, sensei?” [That’s really the worst, he already called me yesterday and said things about that but for he to be here forever as teacher, what is gonna happen for us?!”😟

 “Uni, its lunch break lets grab something from the cafeteria” Nami called

“Okay”

“Whaaaa! Isn’t that Haruka walking with those 3^rd years skinny girls 😠 hey what are you doing to our homeroom teacher?” Nami shouted

“Oh Nami & ... Kururugi” Sakurai hinted

“Too bad for little girls, we are gonna graduate soon so we have a better chance than you” a 3^rd year girl said

“You ... Don’t get near Haruka sensei, he is our teacher__”

“Com’n Nami” [I don’t wanna see this kind of thing] Uni said turning the other way

“Ah, Okay”

 the girl went after school to find a cooling bandages in her closet

“Ah Nami -chan might noticed that I hurt my leg in our PE class”

 

 after school outside “sensei, we need to talk”

“Okay hop in” He opened his red car’s door for her

“You got one”

“It’s just rental, you knew, it gets so cold in winter in Tokyo”

“You aren’t from Tokyo?!”

“Sort of, what did you want to talk about?”

“Sensei, have you thought about what is gonna happen about.... us?”

“What about you? Why did you like me in first place?” he approached her teasingly. She got confused “ah ... you... your FACE”

[What did I say. it’s true that I liked him for his face at first but its not like that]

He looked straight at the road slightly disappointed “Ah, so you are same as the others -students- . Is this area fine ?” he stopped the car

“Ah, yes. It’s not too far from here” She replied quietly

“About that promise.. with everything considered, I thought we should just stay as teacher-student, Lets pretend it never happened” He left the confused girl and went on his way with a depressing look on his face

 They both looked normal for the next 2 days till...

“Oh its you who happened waiting in the infirmary while I was gone, what did you want Sakurai sensei?” The infirmary nurse said those words to Sakurai Sensei on the stairs

“Sorry, there was a kid in my class who hurt her leg”

“Its fine I’ve a lot of cooling bandages”

...The girl was standing beside the corner voicelessly hearing all of that.

  After school when Sakurai was leaving. She ran to him, bumped a letter to him and ran hiding behind the closets

{Thanks for the cooling bandages I know you’re kind that way . that’s why I love you} he walked behind the closet to see the little girl shaking

“So you love me that much” she quietly nodded. he opened his arms, she quickly jumped into them saying “Don’t let go of me again”

He kissed her softly “I won’t”

 

  

  Next morning in the teacher’s room “everyone,  I’d like to introduce our new teacher in school Takizawa Meiri-san”

On the way out.. The principle opened the door to bump into Sakurai “Oh Sakurai-sensei you’re late I just finished introducing our new Teacher” he looked up to see the woman he used to date long time ago

“Ah Haruka is that you !” The mature beautiful woman gasped

“You knew him, Takizawa sensei. thats great... Sakurai sensei may show you round the school”

In the class... “Hey everyone look its Haruka & the new teacher they are all lovey-dovey together ” 😂

 At the yard... “I never thought you’ll would be here & a Sensei Hahahahaha”

“Don’t laugh that’s mean” he sighed

“How have you been?”

“Good”

“Okay better keep going or late for my first class”

“Okay” he walked away looking back at her [Is that all, she won’t ask anything. It doesn’t matter; I already threw it all back]

She also looked back [Always like that, acting free-cat way, Running away throwing your past]

“Everyone in his place, I’m gonna take attendance”

 “Haruka, who was she? your lover !!! Hhhhhhhhh”

“Ah no” He answered but the woman was passing by “Haruka.. you’re here, how about having lunch after class”

“hey sensei, are you his lover ?”

“No just his Ex” answered frivolously 

“Whaaaa ?!” students laughed in surprise

“Meiri go to your class” -He sighed-

“Hhhhh, see you”

 All this Ruckus is happening While the little girl is so shocked looking down, sinking in her thoughts, Sakurai called

“Kururugi... Kururugi Uni”

“Ah, yes”

“Come to the teacher’s room after school”

[What did he want? I never talked to him since that morning, that new teacher is his Ex. I’m.... ]

 

  After school

“I’m here Sakurai sensei”

“You have been down lately, what’s wrong?”

“Nothing”

He caressed her cheek gently “Don’t lie to me, I always watch you, Are you afraid that.... ?”

“Me! Why? from your Ex”

“I didn’t mention her, yet you are”

“ALL RIGHT” I’m fine She shouted in despair

He held her then cuddled her

“What are you doing ?” She said shyly

“didn’t you say Never let go of me”

“sorry, I was scared” she cried rounding her arms around him

he rounded up a necklace -with beautiful gold ring at the middle of it-around her neck “Happy birthday”

“You know !!” Her eyes widened as she was surprised

“Yeah” he looked in her eyes “Kururugi, marry me”

She held him affirmatively then they kissed

 Next morning “You... Kururugi Uni, right ?! I want to talk to you a bit after school”  Takizawa Meiri asked 

.....

“What is it sensei ?”

“You are close to Haruka, right ?”

“Ah, You mean Sakurai sensei He treat all his students nicely”

“I knew he was always like that... I once went out with him”

She gritted her teeth in concern “Sensei, Do you still like him ?”

[What I’m asking ?]

“Yes”

Uni heard her answer & said rapidly “.... I’ve  to go. It’s getting late” thinking [Did she asked me to come to just... make me feel this way..  I hate her]

The girl walked away With her dark feelings getting over her

 

“Hey Kururugi, what about going somewhere after school?” < Sakurai

“Sorry Sensei, I don’t feel very well”

The girl returned home to stay alone without anyone living with her

(Ring ring) -phone rings-

 Another Day  “hey Kururugi, Its festival coming why don’t you go with me to the aquarium !”

“I’ve plans” then she left

 Next day.. Sakurai called again

“Hey Kururugi I called you a lot yesterday & The day before. You’re not avoiding me by any chance ?”

“No”

“So lets go on a date tomorrow to the festival” he smiled caringly pushing, knowing the fact she is avoiding him

The girl cheered up [I can’t avoid him forever] “I wanna go”

 

  At the festival, Haruka waved to the girl whispering when they met “you look so cute in that yukata, Kururugi”

*blushed* “of course, I am” Answered arrogantly cuz of her tsunder personality

“What should we do first.... ?”

“Ahh Haruka is that you ?” Meiri who happened to be passing called from behind “and Kururugi ?”

[Ah I never thought about a probability of us getting seen, what should I do? what should I do?] Uni was thinking about an excuse till

Sakurai said “we ran into each other Just now” he patted on the girl’s head

“Ah can I hang out with you ?” Meiri asked

“Yes of course” Uni answered quickly escaping the situation

 

 The 2 adults acted more like a couple, They had more fun while Uni became Distanced from the group till she left on her own thinking “I really wanted to see the fireworks with him” she heard someone after her with distanced breathes

“Haa... ha.., you really move so fast for a shorty”

“What are you doing here, Sensei?” 😢 cried the girl

“ I’ve been looking for you”

“But you & ...”

“I left her in the crowd, she’ll get bored and go home”

“Why are you here ?”

“I wanted to see the fireworks with you”

She ran into his arms

“Don’t cry. I choose you, you too should have more faith in yourself”

“Hai” = (Okay)

 After the Fireworks’ show is over. Uni went on her way

“Kururugi Uni” The little girl heard a voice behind her in the quite lighted street She turned to see

“Meiri sensei, what are you.... “

“Break up with Haruka or I would tell the whole school”

“What !!”she trembled for a sec.

“If you don’t care about yourself, have more thought; what would happen if Haruka got caught”

“I don’t know what are you talking about ?” she said hesitantly

“you sure don’t know” throwing a picture before her and left

-Its taken when they were kissing on school ground-

The girl couldn’t sleep that night

 Next night at the park

 “What’s it you wanted to talk about, Kururugi?” Sakurai asked

“I don’t wanna see you anymore, lets break up” the girl said sadly

It was Like Sakurai got caught by surprise but He gathered his coolness “Is that so, okay. me too” he threw the gloves  she gave to him into trash basket and left

 Next day at school “Kururugi, I’m glad I met you, How have you been ?” Meiri -laughing happily as nothing happened- went down to catch up Uni

“Meiri-sensei, Please don’t call me without a reasonable reason”

““You two careful on the stairs It just got wiped”” teacher’s voice

“Kururugi, wait” she tried to get her but... “Let go of me” Uni shrugged her away ,both women fell of the stairs

The young girl opened her eyes to see everything blurry She concentrated more to see Sakurai was holding the woman & shouting

“Meiri wake up, Meiri. outta the way” he carried her to the infirmary. Nami came “oh, Uni you okay! Uni say something”

The girl snapped out of her -dark face- reaction “sorry For worrying you Nami, I’m fine now ... ah”

“You can’t stand up”

“Don’t worry, I’ll walk to the infirmary”

“I’ll go with you”

“No, I need to be a lone” the girl stood up went to the Ladies room thinking [He totally brushed me off how could he ...No.. Its my fault, I’m the one who firstly let go of him I can never confront him ... Ah Meiri sensei It was my fault... I’ve to apologize]

 At the infirmary

“Meiri, are you all right ?”

“Yeah. I’m... in the infirmary !?”

“Thank god, you are Okay”

“What... WHAT?  Kururugi ?” the woman panicked

“Sensei, I’m here” the girl went in looking down in shame

The Female teacher snapped grabbing Haruka’s collar sarcastically “Haruka, how could you leave a student hurt and carry me. are you stupid ?”

“No, its because you were unconscious so he had to prioritize you. Sensei” Kururugi said quickly keeping her head down

“What about you, Are you okay Kururugi ?”

“Yes,... excuse me” She was about to leave so she looked to Sakurai and turned with sad look up on her face

“Wait” Sakurai Said holding her, she looked regretful to him,

He held her up and kissed her surprisingly then looked to Meiri and confronted her smiling proudly “Meiri, I know that’s not of your business but I kinda wanted to tell you about the one I’m dating right now Its that Child, Kururugi can you wait outside for a min. ?”

The girl went out and Sakurai turned “you look surprised even you know”

“I know about you two but I never thought you would actually say it yourself”

“Sorry, but I really like her & I wanna her by my side”

“Thats weird I kinda feel happy for you, you’ve changed Haruka. Excuse me now I’ve something to do”

She went after Uni “listen to me, he loves you & I’ll not be defeated by a child” she smiled “Lets have a fair contest, My Rival” 😉

 The girl turned to see Haruka wearing the gloves “Don’t leave me again” He said

(Sob sob) “I won’t, Lets have a date once we go to Kyoto”

“Kyoto!!!” the man gasped surprise

The Legend is returning back to where it all started
