CHAPTER 13

                               As they reached a coffee house, Hattori parked his car and looked at Yuuri. He sighed. “Why is it that you like to get hurt so much?” Hattori asked. “What’s that supposed to mean?! Ouch!” Yuuri moaned painfully while holding her swollen cheek. Hattori pulled her hand and stared at her cheek. Yuuri blushed madly when her heartbeat became fast. “Wh… What’s going on? Why am I blushing?” Yuuri whispered to herself. Hattori sighed and let go of her hand. “Let’s go.” said Hattori. They came out from the car and went to a brown wooden bench. “Wait here.” said Hattori and left Yuuri alone. Yuuri obeyed him.

                           Fifteen minutes later, Hattori came with a brown paper bag. He sat beside Yuuri and took out a bottle of ointment. Yuuri looked at him curiously. Hattori patted the ointment on Yuuri’s swollen cheek gently. Yuuri moaned painfully. “Don’t move.” said Hattori. Yuuri obeyed him and sat quietly. She blushed madly. Hattori kept the ointment in to the brown paper bag and gave it to Yuuri. “Here. Use it twice a day.” said Hattori. Yuuri thanked him and kept the paper bag into her school bag. “So, what are we doing here?” Yuuri asked curiously. “I got a day off. I don’t know what to do, so, I brought you here.” said Hattori. Yuuri had a heavy sweat. “Plus….” Yuuri looked at Hattori curiously. “… today is my birthday.” said Hattori. He took his cigarette and started to smoke. “Your birthday?” Yuuri asked curiously. Hattori blew some smoke. Yuuri was surprise. “I’m sorry! I really forgot about it! I’m really sorry!” Yuuri apologized. “I knew it.” said Hattori while glaring at Yuuri evilly. Yuuri had a heavy sweat. “Oh, come on! It’s the first time I forgot about it!” Yuuri persuaded while smiling innocently. “Hmm… so as a punishment, you had to spend the rest of the day with me.” said Hattori as he took off his sunglasses and threw away his cigarette. Yuuri sighed and text Hatsuharu. “Fine… where do you want to go?” Yuuri asked innocently. “Let’s have lunch first. We can watch movie and do something else later.” said Hattori. Yuuri had a heavy sweat. “Is this supposed to be a date?” Yuuri whispered to herself while blushing. “Let’s go.” said Hattori. They went to the coffee house and had their lunch together.

                             That night, Hattori sent Yuuri home. “Thanks for today, Hattori. I really had fun!” said Yuuri cheerfully. “No problem.” said Hattori. “Oh! I almost forgot!” said Yuuri. Hattori looked at her curiously. Yuuri opened her school bag and took out a key chain that has a shape of a plump with a weird face. Hattori had a heavy sweat while loking at Yuuri. “You want to give this to me?” Hattori asked. “Oh come on! I don’t know what I should give you for your birthday.” said Yuuri. Hattori was speechless. “What? Do you hate it that much?” Yuuri asked gloomily. Hattori started to laugh. “Why are you laughing?” Yuuri asked curiously. “It’s really nothing.” said Hattori. Yuuri sighed. She got out from the car and got into her house. Hattori looked at the keychain and smiled. He then drove his car back home.

                     Yuuri can’t sleep that night. She kept on thinking about Hattori. She was sitting at her study desk. “Why is my heartbeat will become fast whenever I’m with him? Do I like him?” Yuuri whispered to herself. She blushed madly and shook her head. “No way! I’m just a burden to him! I bet he already had someone else in his mind.” Yuuri whispered to herself. She sighed gloomily while looking at a picture of her and Hattori when they were kids.

~*****~

                                Two weeks after the exam, they got their results. They were happy and really pleased about it. They were walking home together. “Hey, let’s celebrate!” Goku suggested. “Sure. It’ll be fun!” Hakuren agreed. “Oh, sorry guys. I had to go to Osaka and visit my cousin.” said Yuuri. “That’s okay. We can celebrate it when you come back.” said Hakkai. “Yeah, Yuuri.” Hazuki agreed. “That’s okay. You guys go ahead.” said Yuuri. She looked at her watch. “I got to go now. Catch you later.” said Yuuri as she left her friends.

                        Yuuri was waiting for the train to come at the train station. She was sitting on a brown wooden bench while reading a magazine. Suddenly, she heard someone called her name. She was shocked when she saw Hazuki, walking towards her while dragging her pink briefcase. Yuuri stood up. “Uki? What are you doing here?” Yuuri asked curiously. Hazuki held Yuuri’s hand tightly while looking at her gloomily. “Please… take me with you!” Hazuki begged gloomily. Yuuri was dumbfounded. the train to Osaka had arrived. Yuuri hung her head low. “Okay but you had to explain to me in the train.” said Yuuri. Hazuki nodded cheerfully. They went into the train quickly and find their seats. “So why did you followed me?” Yuuri asked. Hazuki looked away gloomily. “It’s my father. He want me to get marry with Seichi as fast as it can.” Hazuki explained gloomily. Yuuri was shocked. “Did anyone know about this?” Yuuri asked gloomily. Hazuki shook her head gloomily. Yuuri sighed. “Oh well… mind as well just go with the flow.” said Yuuri. Hazuki smiled and thanked Yuuri. They both enjoy the journey together.

                      As they got off from the train, Yuuri was trying to find her cousins. She sighed. “What’s wrong, Yuu?” Hazuki asked curiously. “I couldn’t find my cousins anywhere. They should be here by now.” Yuuri answered. “Where is Ayame?” Yuuri muttered angrily. “Here I am!” suddenly, Ayame hugged Yuuri from her back. Hazuki and Yuuri were shocked. “I really miss you so much, Yuu!” said Ayame while rubbing his cheek on Yuuri’s cheek. “Calm down, will you?” said Yuuri while pushing Ayame’s face. “It’s been a while, Yuu.” said Ritsu as he walked towards the girls. He smiled happily, exposing his white pearly teeth. “Wow… he looks beautiful! Just like a real woman!” Hazuki whispered to herself. “You never change…. Ritsu.” said Yuuri with a heavy sweat while smiling. Ayame looked at Hazuki curiously. “Well now, who’s this cute girl?” Ayame asked curiously. He took Hazuki’s hand and kissed it. Hazuki blushed and was speechless. Yuuri introduced them. “You girls must be tired. Let’s go home.” said Ritsu. “Wait a minute!” said Hazuki. Yuuri, Ayame and Ritsu looked at Hazuki curiously. “I’m sorry, but I don’t think I’m worthy enough to stay with you. My father always insulted your family… and… and…” Hazuki lost her words. She hung her head low gloomily. “Uki… if you don’t want to come with me, I’ll upload this photo.” said Yuuri while showing Hazuki a picture of her sleeping with a ping fluffy rabbit. Hazuki was shocked. “Where did you get that?!” Hazuki asked while blushing. “So it’s settle than. Let’s go home.” said Ayame happily while putting his arm around Yuuri’s neck. They went home together.

                           That night, Kureno came to Ayame’s house. Yuuri tried her best to make sure Hazuki was a sleep. After Hazuki had fall asleep, Yuuri tip-toed to the living room and met Kureno. “Any news?” Kureno asked. Yuuri sat against him and told him everything about the Seichi’s family and Suichi’s family. Ayame sighed. “What a handful. To think that cute girl would be their target.” said Ayame while smiling. “That poor girl.” Ritsu whispered gloomily. “When will they get marry?” Kureno asked. “I don’t know yet. I’ll tell you as soon as possible.” said Yuuri. Kureno nodded. “Very well then.” said Kureno. He drank his coffee. “By the way…” Yuuri looked at Kureno curiously. “… You’re going to manage the company from now on.” Kureno announced while smiling. Yuuri was dumbfounded. “That’s great, Yuu!” said Ritsu cheerfully. “What?! But why?!” Yuuri asked curiously. “There’s a chance that you had to reveal your father’s secrets in order to help me out.” Kureno explained. Yuuri sighed and hung her head low. “Yuuri…” Ayame whispered while looking at Yuuri gloomily. “But I’m not eighteen yet. Plus, I had to go to school and finishe up my study.” said Yuuri. “Well, your job is simple.” said Kureno while smiling. Yuuri looked at him curiously. “You had to think for the company’s future and sign some documents. Yuuki will be your private assistant and do the rest of your work until you think that you’re ready for the challenge.” said Kureno. “Am I ready to do it? I don’t think I can do it.” said Yuuri gloomily. Kureno stood up and looked at Yuuri while smiling. “I have faith in you, Yuuri.” said Kureno. Yuuri was dumbfounded and looked at Kureno curiously. “Not just him, everyone trusts you, Yuuri. Your father wouldn’t gave the company and make you the next head family if he didn’t trust you.” Ayame convinced her with soft soothing voice. Yuuri looked at them and nodded. “Thanks a lot!” said Yuuri happily. Kureno excuse himself and left the house.

CHAPTER 12

                     Yuuri was sleeping at her seat. She was very tired. Hakuren approached her and woke her up. Yuuri looked at Hakuren sleepily. “We need to talk.” said Hakuren. Yuuri nodded her head followed him to the rooftop. At the rooftop, Hakuren locked the door and hung his head low. Yuuri looked at him curiously. “What’s wrong with you?” Yuuri asked. “I’m sorry about yesterday. I’ve been too emotional. I’ve should ask before making any decision.” said Hakuren gloomily. Yuuri was dumbfounded and smiled gloomily. “Don’t get me wrong, Ren. It’s not that I hate you; it’s just that I’m not ready yet. And… I…” Yuuri hesitated. “And you like Hakkai, don’t you?” Hakuren asked gloomily. Yuuri blushed and looked away. “Don’t worry. I’ll tell my parents about this.” said Hakuren. He was about to open the door when Yuuri pulled his brown long sleeve. Hakuren looked at Yuuri curiously. “Don’t tell your parents about this.” said Yuuri. “Why?” Hakuren asked curiously. “It’s bad enough for me to say this to you. I don’t want to make them up sad. Plus… I know why you made that kind of decision.” said Yuuri while smiling. Hakuren hung his head low. He really doesn’t want to marry Sakura. “Let’s make a deal, I’ll help you out by pretending to be your fiancée until everything is over, if you let me do whatever I want.” said Yuuri. Hakuren smiled and nodded his head. They both shook hands and went back to the class room.

                     Hazuki had just arrived to the class room. Yuuri saw Hazuki. She ran towards Hazuki and hugged her. Hazuki was startled. “What’s wrong, Yuu?” Hazuki asked curiously. Yuuri released a fake cry. “I’m so sleepy and tired! Yesterday, I had to help Haru marked some of the homework until 2.00 a.m..” said Yuuri. “You poor thing.” said Hazuki while smiling and patted Yuuri’s head gently. Hazuki went to her seat. Yuuri followed her. “So were all my answers correct?” Hazuki asked. “What answers?” Yuuri asked curiously. “The homework, my dear.” said Hazuki with a heavy sweat. “Oh… All of your answers are… wrong.” said Yuuri. Hazuki started to freak out. “What?! No way! I copied it from Goku! Where’s that jerk!” said Hazuki as she marched to Goku’s seat. “Did you call me?” asked Goku while looking at Hazuki curiously.  Hazuki strangled Goku playfully. “Why did you give me the wrong answers?!” Hazuki scolded angrily. Goku was in a daze. “Uki… I was just joking.” said Yuuri with a heavy sweat. Hazuki released Goku and looked at Yuuri with kitten eyes. “Really?!” asked Hazuki happily. Yuuri nodded while smiling.nGoku knocked Yuuri’s head really hard. “Don’t ever jock about that!” Goku scolded angrily. Hazuki laughed innocently. “I’m sorry, Goku!” said Hazuki. Goku ignored the girls. “Aww… come on... don’t sulk!” said Yuuri. Goku bushed madly when Yuuri and Hazuki hugged him. Hakuren and Gojyo laughed as the approached them. “Don’t you enjoy it, Goku?” Hakuren asked while laughing. “It’s not funny, Ren!” Goku scolded angrily. “Will you ever forgive us?” The girls persuaded him. “I’ll forgive you if you let me go!” said Goku. The girls released him and laughed loudly. “Hey! The teacher got a meeting! Let’s eat!” said Gojyo happily. They went to Hakkai’s seat and joined up some of the tables. “Wow! The food looks delicious!” said Goku. They all sat and ate the food. “The food are amazing, Hakkai! Did you make it?” asked Hazuki curiously. Hakkai nodded his head. “I’m glad that you like it.” said Hakkai. Yuuri, Gojyo and Goku were quarrelling over a shrimp. Sanzo was pissed off. He knocked their heads with a big white paper fan. The three of them moaned painfully and started to quarrel with Sanzo. Hakuren, Hakkai and Hazuki only looked at them with a heavy sweat. Not far from their seats, Seichi and Sakura were glaring at them. Seichi approached Hazuki. Hazuki looked at him curiously. “Can we talk?” Seichi asked. Hazuki looked at Yuuri. Yuuri smiled and nodded. Hazuki followed Seichi to the balcony.

                      “So, what is it that you want to talk about?” Hazuki asked. “Please don’t be so friendly with them. I really hated to see you spending some times with them.” said Seichi. Hazuki became furious. “What I do, did or done is none of your business!” Hazuki groaned angrily. She then marched into the class room and sat beside Yuuri. “What’s the matter?” Yuuri asked gloomily. “It’s nothing.” said Hazuki wile smiling. Sakura approached them. “Honestly, Ren, do you really let your fiancée have fun with ither guys? Why did you choose this reveller?” Sakura insulted Yuuri while glaring at her. Yuuri only kept quiet and hung her had low. Hakuren stood up and looked at Sakura angrily. “You don’t have any right to say that!” Hakuren scolded her angrily. “You can judge her by the way she behaved, don’t you think so?” asked Sakura while smirking. “Shut up!” Hazuki scolded angrily while standing up. “That’s enough!” said Yuuri. They looked at Yuuri as she walked and stood in front of Sakura while smirking cynically. “Even if I am a reveller, I won’t disturb any one’s fiancé. Tell me something, Sakura. Are you that desperate? Do you want Hakuren that much? Tsk… what a hooker.” Yuuri insulted her. All of them became speechless. They can’t believe that Yuuri would say that. Sakura was furious. She slapped Yuuri’s cheek really hard. “How dare you slap her!” Hakuren groaned while holding Yuuri. “Back off Sakura!” Hazuki scolded angrily. All of the students looked at them curiously. Some of the girls were whispering with each other. Yuuri’s cheek swelled. “Is that the hardest slap you can do? My ten year old sister could do it harder than that!” said Yuuri while smirking. “Yuuri…” Hakkai whispered. “All Sohma family members are burden! Why won’t they just die! They all are witch!” Sakura shouted angrily. “That’s enough!” said Hakure angrily. Yuuri hung her head low and released a small laughed. “Yuuri?” asked Hazuki while looking at her gloomily. “If you knew that I’m a witch, than what are you waiting for? Crawl back to your place! Or are you waiting for me to put a curse on you?” said Yuuri cynically.sakura couldn.t defend herself. She left the class room quickly. Hazuki and the boys became anxious. “Listen up! Don’t tell teacher about this! Or you guys are dead meat!” said Yuuri to the pupil. The students nodded and do their works. “I’m sorry, Yuuri! I didn’t know that it would turn out like this!” said Hakuren anxiously. “You need to see the nurse right now, Yuu!” said Hazuki as she tried to hold Yuuri’s swollen cheek. Yuuri held Hazuki’s hand quickly and put it down. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.” said Yuuri. “Ah! Your mouth! It’s bleeding!” said Goku in a horrified voice. Blood oozed out from Yuuri’s mouth. Yuuri wiped it quickly with the back of her hand. “I’m going to get some fresh air.” said Yuuri.”I’ll come with you!” said Hakkai as he stood up. “That’s alright. I would like to go alone.” said Yuuri while smiling. Hakuren started to feel guilty. “Ren… it’s my problem so stay out of it. We had a deal, didn’t we?” said Yuuri. She left the class room. They became speechless. “Should we tell Haru about this?” Gojyo asked. “I don’t think it’s a good idea.” said Sanzo. “Let’s hurry up and clean this up.” said Hazuki. The boys nodded and clean up their place.

                   “Geez… why did she hit that spot?” said Yuuri while holding her cheek. “Does it still hurt?” Hakuren asked anxiously. “You really need to see the doctor, Yuu.” said Hazuki gloomily. “Don’t worry. I’m used to it.” said Yuuri while smiling. “But what would you do if your brother asks about your cheek?” Hakkai asked. They walked to the school gate. “I’ll think about something.” said Yuuri. They were speechless and looked at Yuuri gloomily. As they reached the school gate, Yuuri stopped and looked at them while smiling. “Don’t worry about it! Cheer up, will you?” said Yuuri cheerfully. “How can you say that in the time like this?!” said Goku gloomily. Yuuri grinned naughtily. “Awww…. I didn’t know that you care about me so much.” said Yuuri as she put her arm around Goku’s neck. “Of course I care about you! You’re my friend!” Goku scolded her angrily. “Really? I thought we’re a lover.” Yuuri teased naughtily. “Who the hack wants to be your boyfriend?!” Goku scolded angrily. The others laughed when Yuuri and Goku started to quarrel. Suddenly, a big black car stopped in front the school gate. They looked into the car when the window was opened. “What are you doing here, Hattori?” Yuuri asked curiously. “You know him, Yuu?” Hakuren asked curiously. Yuuri smiled and nodded. “He’s my cousin.” Yuuri explained. “Get in.” said Hattori. Yuuri nodded and looked at the others. “We got exam next week. Let’s study hard!” said Yuuri cheerfully. Hazuki and the boys nodded. Yuuri got in to the car and left them.

                    “What happen to your cheek?” Hattori asked while driving the car. “I fell down the stairs.” said Yuuri while smiling. Hattori poked Yuuri’s cheek really hard. Yuuri moaned painfully. “Don’t lie. I’m a doctor. Someone slapped you, isn’t it?” Hattroi asked. Yuuri hung her head low gloomily. “I know you very well, Yuuri. Just tell me what happen.” said Hattori. Yuuri told him everything..

CHAPTER 11

                       

                    Yuuri was drinking a glass of cold water. “Ah… that’s a relief.” said Yuuri happily. “How are you, Uki?” asked Goku. “I’m fine.” Hazuki answered. “Why didn’t you come to school?” Hakkai asked curiously. “Well, my brother won’t let me. He’s being really protective these days.” Hazuki explained with a heavy sweat. “Are you coming to school tomorrow?” Yuuri asked curiously. Hazuki nodded her head and smiled cheerfully. “Of course I’ll come! By the way… how are you feeling, Yuuri?” asked Hazuki. “I’m fine.” Yuuri answered. They chatted together happily. “Don’t you have to go to school?” Byakuya asked as he approached them. “No! I want them to stay here!” Hazuki insisted while looking at her brother angrily. Yuuri smiled. “He’s right. It’s not polite to stay in people’s house for so long.” said Yuuri. Yuuri and the boys stood up and excuse themselves. They went straight to the gate and discus something. “Should we go back to school?” Hakkai asked. “Are you kidding? We might get kill if we go there right now.” said Goku. “He’s right. Let’s go somewhere fun.” Yuuri suggested happily. “She’s right. Let’s go.” Sanzo agreed. They went to the city and had fun. That day, Yuuri had fun with Hakkai. Hakuren was really pissed off with Hakkai. He was really jealous with Hakkai and Yuuri.

~******~

                           Yuuri and the boys were being punished by the principal. They all had to clean up the school compound. Yuuri and Hakkai was sweeping the dry leaves together. “Honestly, why is this world so cruel? We didn’t do any crime. We only skipped class.” Yuuri complained angrily. “Well, at least we had to clean the school compound not the whole school.” said Hakkai. Yuuri only sighed. “Are you tired?” Hakkai asked. Yuuri shook her head. Hakkai took out his handkerchief and wiped Yuuri’s face. Yuuri looked at him while blushing. Sanzo, Goku, Gojyo and Hakuren looked at them. Hakuren couldn’t take it anymore. “Hey! What are you to love birds doing?! Hurry up with your work!” said Sanzo. Yuuri blushed madly when Gojyo and Goku laughed at them. Hakuren held the broom tightly. “I want to clean that side.” said Hakuren as he went towards Yuuri and Hakkai. He held Yuuri’s hand tightly and looked at Hakkai angrily. Yuuri was shocked and looked at Hakuren. “Ren?” asked Hakkai curiously. “I need to talk to her for a while.” said Hakuren. He dragged Yuuri behind the school building.

                         “Let me go!” Yuuri scolded angrily as she tried to release her hand from Hakuren’s grip. Hakuren ignored her. He shoved Yuuri to the wall really hard. Yuuri bumped her head and moaned. Hakuren tried to kiss Yuuri but she pushed him really hard. “Are you crazy, Ren?!” Yuuri scolded angrily. “I don’t like to see you being friendly with Hakkai.” Hakuren scolded angrily. “What I do, did or done is none of your business.” Yuuri scolded. “Of course it’s my business! You’re my fiancée!” Hakuren scolded. “For your information! I never agreed about this at all!” Yuuri screamed angrily. She then marched to the class room. As she reached the class room, she went straight to her seat and covered her head on the desk. Hazuki approached Yuuri and patted her head gently. “Are you tired?” Hazuki asked while smiling. Yuuri woke up. “Yeah… sorry, I’m not feeling like myself today.” said Yuuri. Hazuki dragged a brown wooden chair and sat beside Yuuri. “That’s okay… Are you sick?” Hazuki asked. “No… That’s not it… Hey, Uki…” Hazuki looked at Yuuri curiously. “I need to talk to you about something. Can we go to the park after school?” Yuuri asked. “Sure.” Hazuki answered cheerfully. “Won’t your brother scold you?” Yuuri asked. Hazuki shook her head. Yuuri thanked her and smiled happily.

                  Yuuri and Hazuki came out from the school gate. Hakuren approached them. “Hey, girls! Mind if I join you?” Hakuren asked. Yuuri looked away gloomily and started to feel tense. Yuuri was dumbfounded when Hazuki held her shoulder. She looked at Hazuki curiously. “Sorry, Ren. We’ve got something to do. Its girls stuffs.” Hazuki explained while smiling. Hazuki held Yuuri’s hand and dragged her to the park.

                  “So, what is it that you want to talk about, Yuu?” Hazuki asked curiously. “I’m really sorry. I know that you love Ren so much. I’m really sorry.” Yuuri apologized while bowing to her. Yuuri looked at Hazuki and told her everything that had happened to her. Hazuki smiled. “Don’t worry. I’m the one who should apologize to you. Ren and I are like siblings. There’s no way that I could fall in love with him.” said Hazuki. “So why did you cried?” Yuuri asked curiously. Hazuki hung her head low. “I panicked. I really hoped that Ren would safe me from marrying Seichi.” Hazuki explained. Yuuri looked at Hazuki gloomily. “You know, Yuuri, I’ve never seen Hakuren love someone more than himself. But I know that you like Hakkai.” said Hazuki. Yuuri was speechless. Hazuki held Yuuri’s shoulder. Yuuri was dumbfounded and looked at Hazuki curiously. “I’ll try to talk to him. Don’t worry.” said Hazuki while smiling. Yuuri bowed and thanked her. Hazuki grinned and put her arm around Yuuri’s neck. “So how was your date with Hakkai?” asked Hazuki naughtily. “It’s not a date at all!” Yuuri scolded angrily while blushing madly. Hazuki kept teasing her.

                   “Mother, I would like to meet my friend. Can I go to the park for a while?” Hazuki asked. “At this time of night?” Shirley asked gloomily. “Please, mum. The teacher will scold me if I don’t finish my homework.” Hazuki explained. “Very well… but Kuro have to follow you.” said Shirley. Hazuki nodded and thanked her mother. She went to the park with her bodyguard.

                    As they reached the park, they saw Hakuren, sitting on a brown wooden bench. Hazuki called him and went towards him. Hakuren gave her his English book. “Thanks. By the way, Ren. There’s something that we need to talk about.” said Hazuki. Hakuren looked at her curiously. “It’s about you and Yuuri.” said Hazuki. Hakuren was dumbfounded and looked at Hazuki curiously. “I’m sorry.” Hakuren apologize. “That’s okay. You know that she had someone else in her mind, don’t you?” Hazuki asked curiously. “Is it Hakkai?” asked Hakuren. “So you know…” said Hazuki. Hakuren looked aay gloomily. “Ren… if you really love her, you should love with an open hand. You really want to make her happy, don’t you?” Hazuki asked. Hakuren nodded his head. “But, what about you?” Hakuren asked while hanging his head. “What do you mean?” Hazuki asked curiously. “Don’t you think that you should let him go too? It’s been six years. If he still alive, he would say the same thing as me.” said Hakuren. Hazuki was dumbfounded and looked at Hakuren gloomily. “Ren… I…” Kuro interrupted her. “Pardon me, Miss Tomoyuki.” Hazuki looked at Kuro curiously. “It’s getting late. Your mother might be worry about you.” said Kuro. Hazuki nodded. “I’ll see you tomorrow.” said Hakuren as he left Hazuki behind. Hazuki only looked at Hakuren gloomily.

~*****~

                           The sun was shining brightly. The air was cold and humid. Hazuki came out from the house. As she walked to the gate, she saw Seichi, waiting for her. “Good morning, Miss Tomoyuki. Shall we go to school together?” asked Seichi. “That’s okay. I can go there by myself.” said Hazuki. “But it’s already late. You’re going to get scolded if you late.” Seichi persuaded her. Hazuki gave up. “Alright. I’ll come with you.” said Hazuki and got into the car. The drive drove the car to the school.

                         

CHAPTER 10

                              The next morning, Yuuri went home alone. Hattori and Rin did volunteer to send her home but she refused. As she reached home, she saw her mother’s car. Her heartbeat became fast. She walked to the house slowly. Suddenly, the door was opened and Yukiko was standing in front of the door way. Yuuri was shocked as a slap stung her cheek. Her cheek became red. “You’re really such a burden!” Yukiko scolded her angrily. She dragged Yuuri to her car. “I knew it. I’m going to stay with her.” Yuuri whispered to herself. Before Yukiko could opened the door, someone pulled Yuuri’s hand really hard. Yuuri lost her balance. As she turned around, her face was bumped on that person’s chest. “What are you doing, Saki?!” Yukiko scolded angrily. Yuuri tried to look at Satsuki but Satsuki covered Yuuri’s head to her chest. “We only said that Yuuri was not home. We didn’t say that you can take Yuuri.” said Satsuki while smirking. The twins stood in front of Yukiko and spread their arms. “We won’t let you take Yuuri away!” said the twins. Yuuri was dumbfounded. Hatsuharu came out from the house while holding a big black bag. He threw the bag in front of Yukiko’s feet. “Here’s your money. I’ll call the police if you come here again.” Hatsuharu warned her angrily. Yuuri looked at Hatsuharu with watery eyes. “Heh… You did keep your promise. Honestly… why do you ever care about that witch.” said Yukiko while smirking. Yuuri only hung her head low. She took the bag and got in to her car. She drove the car, leaving her children. Yuuri looked at Hatsuharu gloomily. “Where did you get the money, Haru?” Yuuri asked curiously. “It’s the company’s money.” said Hatsuharu. Yuuri was shocked. “What?! Why did you do that?! The company will go bankrupt for sure!”  Yuuri scolded. Satsuki poked Yuuri’s swollen cheek. Yuuri moaned painfully. “All of us agreed to use the company’s money. Even Kureno agreed with it.” Satsuki explained. “We rather lost some of the money instead of letting you live with that witch.” said Hatsuharu. “Plus… you always got the blame for what we’ve done. It’s not fair.” said Satsuki. Tears of joy started to run down Yuuri’s cheeks. Yuuri’s grin spread across her face and became a choking laughter.  Her siblings looked at her curiously. “Thank you… truly… thank you…” said Yuuri while wiping her tears with the back of her hand. The twins hugged Yuuri tightly. “Don’t cry, sis! We will cry if we see you cry. Who’s going to comfort us if you cry?” said the twins gloomily. Hatsuharu, Yuuri and Satsuki laughed. “Okay, okay… I won’t cry. See… I’m smiling right now.” said Yuuri while smiling cheerfully. They went into the house together.

                    The ray from the bright sun penetrated trough the white curtains. Hazuki woke up from her sleep. Her head felt dizzy. “Where am I?” muttered Hazuki. “You’re in your room. Get some rest, Uki.” said Byakuya while patting Hazuki gently. “What happened?” Hazuki asked. “You fainted in the rain. Hakuren was the one who sent you home.” Byakuya explained. “Ah! Yuuri!” Hazuki tried to wake up but her brother pushed her slowly on the bed. “She’s okay. Don’t worry.” said Byakuya. Hazuki was relief. She closed her eyes and tried to get some rest.

~******~

                    Yuuri came to school just like she always did. As she reached the class room, she heard someone called her name. She turned around and saw Hakkai. “Where were you, Yuuri? We’ve tried to find you everywhere. Are you okay?” asked Hakkai. “I’m fine. I just need some time alone.” said Yuuri while smiling. “Well you sure know how to scare the guts out of us.” said Goku. Yuuri grinned naughtily. “Awww… how cute. Are you really worried that I’m gone?” Yuuri asked while hugging Goku. Goku blushed and pushed Yuuri. “You make Uki sick you know? She fainted when she was trying to find you.” said Hakuren. “She’s sick?! Oh no!” said Yuuri with a shock. She left the class room quickly. “Where are you going?!” asked Gojyo. “Isn’t it obvious? To visit Uki of course!” said Yuuri. “Is it okay to skip school?” asked Hakkai. “Who cares? Let’s follow her!” said Goku. The boys took their bags and followed Yuuri.

                          As they reached Hazuki’s house, they all stood in front the gate. “Hay, Uki! Are you okay?!” Yuuri shouted loudly. The boys had a heavy sweat. A maid came out from the house and went towards them. “I’m sorry, but who are you?” the maid asked. “We’re Uki’s friends. We want to see her.” Hakuren answered. “I’m sorry but master Byakuya won’t let lady Sohma and Mr Oak see lady Tomoyuki.” the maid explained. “Why not?” Hakuren asked. “I don’t know. Please leave.” said the maid. “No! I won’t leave!” Yuuri protested.they was shock when Yuuri sat in front of the gate. “I won’t move even an inch from this spot.” said Yuuri. Suddenly, Byakuya came out and went towards them. “What’s taking you so long? I told you to get rid of them, didn’t i?!” Byakuya scolded the maid angrily. The maid apologized and excused herself. Byakuya looked at Yuuri. “Well, well… if it isn’t the trouble maker. What do you want?!” said Byakuya with a cynic voice. “We came here to visit Hazuki.” said Sanzo. “What a laugh! Do you really think that I’m going to let you come in?” asked Byakuya while smirking. Yuuri hung her head low. “I’ve shouldn’t stop Uki from committing a suicide.” said Yuuri. Everyone was dumbfounded. Byakuya almost dropped his jaws on the ground. “What? Didn’t you know? Uki tried to kill herself two years ago by eating some stupid sleeping pills. I stopped her and asked her why did she do it. She only sobbed and said that she couldn’t bear with you and your father’s ego. So who’s the trouble maker now?” asked Yuuri while smirking. Byakuya grinned. “Do you really think that I really going to fell for it?” asked Byakuya as he walked into the house. The boys looked at Yuuri gloomily. “Is it all true, Yuu?” Hakkai asked. Yuuri only sat on the ground quietly while hanging her head low.

                           “How are you feeling, Uki?” Byakuya asked as he walked towards his sister. “I’m fine. Looked at my muscle!” said Hazuki cheerfully. Byakuya hugged Hazuki tightly. Hazuki was dumbfounded. “What’s wrong, brother?” Hazuki asked curiously. “I just want you to be happy, Uki.” Byakuya whispered gloomily. “What do you mean?” Hazuki asked curiously. Byakuya looked at Hazuki gloomily. “Is it true that you tried to commit a suicide?” Byakuya asked. Hazuki was dumbfounded and speechless. She hung her head low. She can’t meet her brother’s gaze. “Ho… How did you know?” Hazuki asked. “Your friend told me.” Byakuya answered gloomily. Hazuki was dumbfounded and looked at her brother curiously. “They here?!” Hazuki asked. Byakuya nodded his head. Hazuki ran to the gate quickly.

                         “Hey, Yuuri, how long are you going to keep this up?” Gojyo asked with a heavy sweat. “You’re going to faint if you keep this up.” said Hakkai. “I won’t faint so quit whining.” said Yuuri. She tried to keep it cool even thou she felt like her body were being roasted like chicken. Hazuki opened the gate and went towards them quickly. She looked at Yuuri with a shock. “Yuu! What are you doing?!” Hazuki asked anxiously. “She won’t move if your brother won’t let us see you.” Sanzo explained. “What?! Are you mad?!” said Hazuki. “Uki…” Yuuri called her name. Yuuri stood up and held Hazuki’s collar. “Do you know how long did I sit here?! You…” Yuuri paused and fell on the ground. Hazuki was shocked. She sank on her knees and shook Yuuri’s body vigorously. “Hey! Are you okay?!” Hazuki asked anxiously. “Why is there so many stars?” Yuuri muttered. “Let’s bring her inside.” said Hazuki. Hakuren was about to volunteer but Hakkai already cradled Yuuri. Hakuren was pissed off. They all went inside the house.

                  

CHAPTER 9

                               That night, Yuuri only locked herself in her room. Satsuki entered Yuuri’s room and sat beside her. “Are you okay, Yuu? You didn’t eat your dinner.” Satsuki asked gloomily. Yuuri only kept quiet. “Please eat your dinner, Yuu. I don’t want to see you ill.” said Satsuki. “Hey, sis… I think… I think I’ll stay with mother.” said Yuuri gloomily. Satsuki was dumbfounded and looked at Yuuri gloomily. “Fifty thousand dollar is really impossible.” said Yuuri as she hung her head low. Satsuki bit her lower lip. “No! I won’t let that happen!” said Satsuki as she hugged Yuuri. Yuuri was dumbfounded. “If she wants to take someone than she should take me! Not you!” said Satsuki. She hugged Yuuri tightly. Yuuri patted Satsuki’s back. “I’m sorry, Saki.” said Yuuri. Satsuki released Yuuri. “Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.” said Yuuri. She smiled and went to the kitchen. She really wished that time could stop and move slowly. She really don’t want to leave her siblings.

~*****~

                         Hakuren was reading his book at his seat. Yuuri was not feeling well. “Are you okay, Yuuri?” Hakkai asked anxiously. “You looked really pale.” said Gojyo. “I’m fine. Don’t worry.” Yuuri answered while smiling gloomily. Hazuki entered the class room and went to her seat. Yuuri went towards Hazuki. She wanted to solve the misunderstanding between them. “Uki, can we…” Hazuki stood up quickly and left the class room. Yuuri was dumbfounded. She went back to her seat and stood motionless in front of her desk. She pushed all of her things angrily. All of her stuffs fell on the floor. All of the students looked at Yuuri with a shock. Yuuri only hung her head low.

                      It was recess. Hazuki was walking to the teachers’ room alone. As she walked in front of an empty room, suddenly, the door was opened and Hazuki was pulled into the room. Yuuri closed and locked the door quickly. “Yuu! What are you doing?! Let me go! I want to see the teacher!” Hazuki scolded Yuuri angrily. She tried to open the door but Yuuri restrained her. “Listen to me, Uki! Hakuren and I are only friends! It’s not what you think at all!” Yuuri tried to explain. “I don’t care about it at all! I don’t care even if that idiot loves you! Now let me out!” Hazuki screamed angrily. Yuuri felt stress. Her head felt dizzy and her breath became congested. She sank on her knees. Hazuki was shocked and tried to help Yuuri to stand up. “Open the door now, Yuu! You need to see the doctor!” said Hazuki anxiously. Yuuri gathered all the energy that she had and stood up. “Uki… I’m sorry but I have to break your promise.” said Yuuri as she opened the door and went back to the class room. “What promise? Yuuri!” asked Hazuki.

                      As Yuuri reached the class room, she went to her seat and ate her medicines. She sighed. “Do you want to go home?” Hakkai asked anxiously. “You looked really pale, Yuuri.” said Hakuren anxiously. Hazuki approached Yuuri anxiously. “Yuuri…” Hazuki called. “I’m fine.” said Yuuri, trying to ignore Hazuki. She put her head on the desk and had a short nap. Hazuki only looked at her gloomily.

                             Mr Seiran was teaching them mathematics. Yuuri felt like vomiting. She raised her hand up. Mr Seiran looked at her curiously. “Yes, Yuuri?” Mr Seiran asked. “May I go to the toilet?” asked Yuuri. Mr Seiran nodded his head. Yuuri stood up and walked weakly. As she walked pass Hazuki, she suddenly fainted. Hazuki was shocked and tried to wake Yuuri up. Yuuri was sweating rapidly. All of the students became anxious. “I’ll call the ambulance” said Mr Seiran. He left the class room quickly. Hazuki and the boys followed Yuuri to the hospital. 

                               They all were waiting for Yuuri outside the doctor’s room. It’s been an hour since Yuuri got into the room. Hazuki looked at Hakuren. She never saw him so worried and stressed before. The door was open and Yuuri came out from the room. She acted like nothing happened. Hazuki and the boys approached her. Yuuri tried to ignore them but she failed. Hazuki held Yuuri’s hand tightly. Yuuri stood quietly. “Tell me right now, Yuuri! Why do you always ill?!” Hazuki asked angrily. “I want to go home.” said Yuuri as she parried he hand really hard and left them quickly. Hakuren ran after her. Hazuki stood motionless while hanging her head low. “Are you okay, Uki?” Goku asked. “Yeah… Let’s go home.” said Hazuki as she tried to curl a smile. All of them went home together.

                            Yuuri was walking gloomily near a café. Her face was very pale. She felt really tired and couldn’t walk anymore. She sank on her knees while holding her head. Suddenly, a black shiny car approached her. Yuuri stopped and looked at the car curiously. The door was opened and Hattori, Yuuri’s cousin, came out from the car and went towards her. “Why are you here? Did something happen to you? Are you sick? ” asked Hattori gloomily. Yuuri held Hattori’s white long sleeve tightly while looking at him gloomily. Hattori was dumbfounded. “Please take me away from here! I don’t want to go home! I… I…” said Yuuri. Her head fell dizzy and heavy. Hattori held her and helped her get into his car. He drove the car. “Where do you want to go?” Hattori asked. Yuuri only kept quiet. “I’ll tell Haru that…” Yuuri held Hattori’s white long sleeve tightly. “Don’t tell anyone about this. I just want to be alone for a while… I’m just a bit tired, that’s all.” said Yuuri. She let go of his sleeve. The traffic light turned red. Hattori stopped his car and looked at Yuuri. He held Yuuri’s forehead. “You got a very high fever. You need to get some rest.” said Hattori. Yuuri nodded her head gloomily. The traffic light turned green. Hattori drove the car home. As he reached home, Hattori helped Yuuri get into the house and went to the living room. Yuuri only sat on the red sofa with a daze. She felt her head was going to explode. Hattori went to the kitchen and took some medicine for her. “Here, eat it.” said Hattori as he sat beside Yuuri. He gave Yuuri the medicine and a glass of water. Yuuri took it and ate it. She put the glass on the table. Her vision became unclear. “Do you have a problem?” Hattori asked. He knew that Yuuri will get ill if she stress out. “Why did you ask?” said Yuuri while smiling gloomily. “Isn’t it obvious? You always go somewhere alone if you have a problem.” said Hattori. “I’m fine… I just need some… rest…” Yuuri fainted in Hattori’s arms. Her head fell on Hattori’s shoulder. Hattori sighed. He laid Yuuri on the sofa. He took out his phone and called Rin.

                         That night, Hazuki only stayed in her room, “Are you a sleep. Uki?” Byakuya asked as he entered Hazuki’s room. Hazuki looked at her brother with her watery eyes. Byakuya hugged his sister and tried to calm her down. He knew that his sister was up sad with something. Suddenly, Hazuki’s phone rang. Hazuki answered the phone. “Hello?”. “Uki! It’s me, Haru. Is Yuuri with you?” asked Hatsuharu anxiously. “No… Why? What happened?” Hazuki asked anxiously. “She’s not home yet. We couldn’t contact her at all. Anyway, thanks.” said Hatsuharu. He hung up. Hazuki put her phone on the table and went to find Yuuri quickly. “Uki! What’s wrong?! Uki!” Byakuya tried to call Hazuki but Hazuki didn’t answer. Hazuki kept searching for Yuuri high and low. The rain started to pour down the earth.  Hakuren saw Hazuki. He called her name and went towards her. “What are you doing here? Let’s go home.” said Hakuren while holding an umbrella. “I need to find Yuuri. She’s sick! Let’s find her, Ren!” said Hazuki anxiously. “Don’t worry about it. She’ll be fine. She knows what she’s doing. Now let’s go home.” Hakuren persuaded. “No! I want to find Yuuri!” Hazuki protested. Flashes of lightning lit up the darkened sky followed by cracks if thunder as though it reply. Hazuki hugged Hakuren’s arm tightly. “Let’s go.” said Hakuren as he dragged Hazuki. Hazuki followed him with her watery eyes. She really worried about Yuuri.

                       Rin called Hatsuharu. “Haru, there’s something I need to tell you.” said Rin. “What is it? Is Yuuri with you?” Hatsuharu asked anxiously. “Yeah…” Rin answered. Hatsuharu sighed. “Why didn’t you tell me before?” Hatsuharu asked. “I’m sorry. I wanted to tell you but Yuuri won’t let me do it. You know how stubborn she can be.” Rin explained. “Where is she now?” Hatsuharu asked. “She’s at Hattori’s house. Don’t worry… Hattori and I will send her home tomorrow.” said Rin. “Thank god. I was worried about her. It’s good to hear that she’s with Hattori. Anyway, thanks a lot, babe.” said Hatsuharu cheerfully. “Not a problem. It’s not a trouble at all” Rin answered cheerfully. “Have you made your decision?” Rin asked gloomily. “Yes, I did. Don’t worry.” Hatsuharu answered. They chat happily in the phone.

                     Yuuri was sitting in Hattori’s room while looking at the rain drops gloomily. Rin entered the room and sighed. “Why didn’t you eat your dinner? Is my cooking that?” Rin asked while joking. Yuuri only ignored her. Rin sat beside Yuuri and looked at her gloomily. “I hate rain. It only reminds me of the sad memories I had.” said Yuuri gloomily. “Well… rainbow always come out after the rain’s over. Same as life… there’re always happy memories after we remembered the sad memories that hunt us down, don’t you think so?” said Rin while smiling. Yuuri looked at her and nodded gloomily. “Let’s get some sleep. It’s been a rough day for you today.” Rin persuaded. Yuuri obeyed her. They both slept together that night.

CHAPTER 8

                     Hatsuharu looked at Byakuya while smiling. “It’s been awhile… Byakuya.” said Hatsuharu. Byakuya asked Hatsuharu to have a sit in the living room with him. Hatsuharu agreed. Hatsuharu and Yuuri sat on a comfy green couch. Yuuri felt very sleepy. She felt her head was heavy as a rock. She leaned her head against Hatsuharu’s shoulder and fell asleep. Hatsuharu only smiled and hugged her. Byakuya sat against Hatsuharu. “Who ever thought that our sisters are close friends.” said Byakuya, trying to break the ice. Hatsuharu agreed. They both chatted happily. “Byakuya, why didn’t you let Hakuren and the others become Hazuki’s friend?” asked Hatsuharu. “ Well… I don’t want to see my sister cry or hurt again just like before.” Byakuya explained gloomily. “But do you think Uki happy with this? Sooner or later, you had to stop protecting her for her own good. She had to learn how to stand up on her two feet.” Hatsuharu advised. Byakuya only nodded. Byakuya really respected Hatsuharu just like his own brother. “You know… Yuuri was actually hurt with your father’s words. You might think she use to it, but deep down, i know that she really hate it.” said Hatsuharu while stroking Yuuri’s hair gently. Byakuya was speechless. “So… how’s Rin? It’s been a while since I meet both of you.” said Byakuya. “She’s fine. We’re going to get marry soon.” Hatsuharu answered. Byakuya laughed. “I see… looks like your wish did come true, huh, Haru?” said Byakuya. Hatsuharu laughed. “I know… Who ever thought that diva who people loved so much in our college will end up with me.” said Hatsuharu. Both of them laughed. Yuuri woke up and sat beside Hatsuharu sleepily. “We should go home now.” said Hatsuharu while patting Yuuri’s head. Yuuri nodded. Hatsuharu gave Yuuri a piggy-back. “Think a bout you sister’s future carefully, Byakuya.” said Hatsuharu. Byakuya nodded. Hatsuharu and Yuuri left the house.

                    “Why do I had to go to school in the morning?” Yuuri muttered sleepily. Hatsuharu only laughed while piggy-back Yuuri. “Would you prefer to go to work?” Hatsuharu asked curiously. “That’s not what I mean. It’s just that, it would be fun if I have to go to school at night.” said Yuuri. “Why is that?” Hatsuharu asked curiously. “I want to sleep soundly during History, that’s why.” Yuuri joked. They both laughed happily. As they reached home, they saw a white car in front of their house. Hatsuharu put Yuuri down. They looked at each other.

                    As they reached the living room, they saw Satsuki, Yukiko and a lawyer. Yuuri’s hands trembled and her body was shaking. The air was stiff with tension and there was something tugging in Yuuri’s heart. She hid behind Hatsuharu and held Hatsuharu’s red sweater. “You must be Sohma Yuuri.” said the lawyer. “What do you want?!” Hatsuharu groaned angrily. “Is that how you welcome us? Come here, Yuuri. I really miss you, my dearest daughter.” Yukiko persuaded Yuuri. Yuuri’s heart pounding as she stood petrified for a few moments. She held red sweater tightly. “We came here to tell you that Mrs Yukiko have the right to take Yuuri with her.” said The lawyer. Satsuki stood up angrily. “You can’t do that!” Satsuki groned angrily. “You heard him. I want Yuuri to stay with me.” said Yukiko while smirking.  “Why now?! Is it because of the money?! You married father just because of his welth, isn’t it?!” Hatsuharu snarled angrily. Yukiko clapped her hands. “Very good. You finally figure it out. So as a reward, I’ll give you two choices. Either you give me Yuuri or fifteen thousand dollar.” said Yukiko while smirking. Yukiko and the lawyer stood up. “I’ll come back again after three days. So think about it.” said Yukiko while smirking. They both left the house. Yuuri felt her world going to pieces. She let go of Hatsuharu’s sweater and sank on her knees. Satsuki went towards Yuuri quickly and hugged her tightly. Hatsuharu looked at Yuuri and sank on his knees. He petted Yuuri’s head gently. Yuuri’s eyes became watery, obscuring her sight and tears started to roll down her cheeks drop by drop. She tried to keep her lips close tightly to avoid an outburst of crying. “What should we do, brother?” Satsuki asked anxiously while stroking Yuuri’s hair gently. “I’ll think of something. Don’t worry.” said Hatsuharu. Yuuri felt dizzy. She fell asleep in Satsuki’s arms. Hatsuharu cradled Yuuri to her room. He put her on the bed and covered her with a thick blue blanket. He patted Yuuri’s head gently and kissed her forehead. He sat beside Yuuri and tried to think of something. “Don’t worry, I won’t let that witch take you away from us.” Hatsuharu whispered to himself while looking at Yuuri gloomily.

~*****~

                             Yuuri was day-dreaming in the class. Hazuki and Hakuren didn’t came to school that day. The boys only looked at Yuuri warily. Hakkai approached her. ‘Are you okay, Yuuri?” Hakkai asked warily. Yuuri stood up. “I’m fine.” answered Yuuri and left the class room quickly. The boys were puzzled. Yuuri went to the music room and played the big black piano. From outside the room, Hatsuharu was peeping his sister. He was very worried about his sister.

                    The school had over. Yuuri was walking home alone. Suddenly, Hakuren ran towards her and held Yuuri’s hand tightly. Yuuri was shocked and looked at him curiously. Hakuren was breathless. “What’s wrong, Ren?” asked Yuuri. “Sohma Yuuri… I really love you!” Hakuren confessed while blushing. Yuuri blushed and was speechless. She parried her hand. “Don’t even bother joked about something like this.” said Yuuri. “I’m not joking! You had to listen to me! It’s about my feling!” said Hakuren. Yuuri ignored him and left him. Hakuren hugged Yuuri from her back.Yuuri was shocked. “You better listen to me or people are going to think that we’re lovers.” said Hakuren. Yuuri was furious. She kicked Hakuren’s leg really hard. Hakuren released his hands and moaned painfully. Yuuri left him. Hakuren didn’t give up. “Yuuri! Wait!” called Hakuran. He ran towards Yuuri and pulled her hand really hard. Yuuri lost her balance. They both accidentally kissed. They both blushed madly. “If you don’t want to listen to me, I will disseminate this picture.” threat Hakuren while showing his camera to Yuuri. Yuuri was really furious. She snatched the camera and threw it away. She left Hakuren. Hakuren followed her while calling her name. All the passers-by looked at them with heavy sweat. Yuuri was pissed off. She stopped and looked at Hakuren angrily. “Fine! What is it that you want from me?” Yuuri asked angrily. Hakuren smiled happily and dragged Yuuri to a luxurious hotel.

                       As they reached to a V.I.P room, Yuuri was surprised to see the Tomoyuki, the Oak, the Kenichi and the Suichi. Hazuki was dumbfounded when she saw Ren and Yuuri. “Ren… what are you…” Hazuki was startled. “Is this the girl that you choose as your fiancé, Ren?” Hakuren’s brother, Mikage, asked. Yuuri was speechless. She still in shocked. “Yes! I’ve fall in love with her, Mikage!” Hakuren confessed happily. “do you agree with your son’s choise, Sato?” Akira asked. “Yes… I just want my son to be happy.” Sato answered. “Then its settle. My daughter will marry Kaito’s son and Sato’s son will marry the girl that he had choose.” said Akira. Hazuki hung her head low. Byakuya was really worried with his sister. All of them left Yuuri and the Oak in the room. Yuuri could finally pulled herself together. She parried her hand and pulled Hakuren’s collar angrily. “What’s going on, Ren?! I want an explanation right now!” Yuuri groaned angrily. “Ah! Ren!” Hakuren’s mother, Sora was startled. “That’s okay, mum. This is how we always did when we saw each other.” Hakuren explained. “Isn’t it obvious, Miss Sohma? You’ll be my sister-in-law soon.” Mikage explained while smiling warmly. Yuuri let go of Hakuren’s collar. “Listen… I don’t want to be a part of this conspiracy, understand?” said Yuuri. She left the room quickly. Hakuren tried to catch up with Yuuri and pulled Yuuri’s hand. Yuuri only stood quietly. “It’s not a conspiracy at all. I really love you. I don’t want to see you sad any more. I want to make you happy.” Hakuren explained. Yuuri parried her hand and looked at Hakuren angrily. “Do I look happy to you?! Do you think I’m happy with it?! Do you think Uki will be happy with this?!” Yuuri scolded angrily. “Uki and I are just like siblings. I never had any feelings towards her.” Hakuren explained. “So than tell me! Why did she cries?!” Yuuri  groaned angrily. Hakuren was speechless. Yuuri ran home while wiping her tears. As she reached home, she went straight to her room and hugged a fluffy white pillow. She was very stressed.

CHAPTER 7

                                 In an empty room, Yuuri, Hazuki, Hatsuharu and the boys were sitting together while discussing something. “Is it okay to use this room?” asked Goku. “Don’t worry; the principal had given Haru his permission. After all, Haru is going to be our adviser.” Yuuri said cheerfully. “What type of club are we going to form?” asked Hakkai curiously. “Its A.M.K. club.” said Yuuri happily. “What’s A.M.K.?” Sanzo asked. “Anime, Manga and K-pop!” said Yuuri cheerfully. The boys had a heavy sweat. Hazuki and Hatuharu clapped their hands happily. “Anime and manga?! Are you serious?!” Goku asked with a surprise. “Oh, come on! You guys like K-pop too, right?” Yuuri asked curiously. “No, we’re not. We only love SNSD and KARA.” said Gojyo. “It’s still K-pop! So! As the president of the club, I got the power to choose.” said Yuuri. “Wait a sec! Who said you’ll be the president?!” Goku scolded angrily. Yuuri looked at Goku. “So than tell me, how can a hot temper monkey, a pervert who has antenna, a heartless boy, a clueless boy, a soft-hearted boy and a cry baby be a president?” said Yuuri as she pointed her finger at Goku, Gojyo, Sanzo, Hakkai and Hazuki. “A hot temper monkey?!” said Goku angrily. “A pervert who has antenna?” said Gojyo while smiling naughtily. “Heartless boy?” said Sanzo with his poker face. “A clueless boy?” asked Hakuren cluelessly while pointing his finger at himself. “A soft hearted boy?” asked Hakkai while smiling. “Who you calling a cry baby?!” Hazuki scolded angrily as she was about to cry. “So it’s settle than! I’ll be the president!” said Yuuri cheerfully. Hatsuharu only laughed. As Yuuri was explaining something, the boys and Hazuki were whispering to each other. “Hey… Do you guys agree that she will become our president?” Hakuren whispered. “Are you nuts?! We might get kill if she becomes our president.” Goku whispered. “Goku is right. She’s really a violent girl.” said Gojyo. Suddenly, they fel an evil aura coming from Yuuri. As they turned around, they saw Yuuri, grinning at them. All of them had a heavy sweat. “What are you guys whispering about? You can share with me.” said Yuuri. She knocked their heads really hard. They had a big red bump on their heads. “Yupe. She can’t be our president.” The boys muttered. “Why did you hit me for?!” Hazuki asked while moaning. “Hurry up, guys! Big Bang’s and Tohoshinki’s concert is going to start soon!” Yuuri scolded them. The boys had a heavy sweat. “You like them?” Sanzo asked with a suspicious look on his face. “What do you expect? I’m a girl! Of course I love to watch handsome guys!” said Yuuri. “That’s right! Especially a boy band called B2ST.” said Hazuki cheerfully. Yuuri and Hazuki jumped happily. The boys had a heavy sweat. Hatsuharu laughed. “Wow! Haru looks cute when he laughed!” said Hazuki. The girls hugged Hatsuharu. “I’ll never understand girls.” Goku complained. “Why? Do you want a hug too?” Yuuri asked naughtily. “Of course not!” Goku scolded angrily.Yuuri and Hazuki went towards Goku and hugged him. Goku only groaned. “Don’t worry. You can hug Yui when she come back.” teased Hazuki. “In a mean time, you can hug us.” teased Yuuri. Goku blushed as the other laughed. “Don’t you feel great when girls hug you?” said Gojyo while laughing. “Shut up, cockroach!” Goku scolded angrily. The girls let go off Goku and gave each other a high-five. “So what now?” Hakkai asked curiously. They looked at Hakkai curiously. “What do you mean?” asked Yuuri curiously. “What’s your decision? Should we stop now?” asked Sanzo. “Well… I guess that’s all for today. Let’s go home.” said Yuuri. They all nodded. Hazuki got a text message. She took out her phone and read it. She put her phone in too her school bag after she had read it. “Hey, Yuuri. Can I sleep at your place tonight? My family had gone for business trip.” Hazuki explained. Yuuri looked at Hatsuharu. Hatsuharu smiled and nodded. “Sure, why not. Do you want to go home first?” asked Yuuri. Hazuki shook her head. “I’m too lazy to take my cloths. I’ll wear yours.” said Hazuki. Yuuri nodded. They all left the room and went home.

                       That night, Hazuki was doing her homework in Yuuri’s room. She was jealous when she saw Yuuri, reading a comic book. “Hey, Uki… Why did you want to spend a night in my house?” asked Yuuri while looking at her suspiciously. “I told you… My family had gone for a business trip.” said Hazuki. “Well… you have some maids and bodyguards, right?” Yuuri asked. Suddenly, Satsuki opened the door. Yuuri and Hazuki looked at her curiously. “Uki, someone wants to see you.” said Satsuki. Hazuki was shocked. “What?! Yuuri, please tell them that I’m not here!” said Hazuki as she tried to hid behind Yuuri’s bed. Yuuri sighed. She came out from the house and was shock when she saw Byakuya, standing in front of the gate. Yuuri was petrified. Byakuya looked at her gloomily. “I know that she will come here if she had problems.” said Byakuya. Yuuri was speechless and ran to her room with a serious look on her face. “Ah! Had you told them that I’m not here? Thank God.” said Hazuki while smiling.  “Tell me the truth, Uki! Why did you stay here?! Why did your brother came here?!” Yuuri scolded angrily.  Hazuki became and hung her hesd low. “My father… messaged me. He told me to come home early to meet my fiancé.” said Hazuki gloomily. “Fiancé? Who is your fiancé?” Yuuri asked. “Kenichi Seichi.” said Byakuya as he entered the room. The girls looked at him. “Let’s go home, Uki.” Byakuya persuaded. “I don’t want to go home! I don’t want to marry him!” Hazuki protested and hid behind Yuuri. “Do you think i like to see you marrying that guy?” Byakuya asked gloomily. Hazuki was dumbfounded. “If you don’t like it than why didn’t you tell your father?’ Yuuri asked. “How can i? He won’t listen to me. Please, Yuuri… I beg you… Please persuade Uki to come home with me.” said Byakuya while bowing. Hazuki was dumbfounded and smiled gloomily. “It’s okay now… Yuuri. I’ll go home.” said Hazuki. Yuuri spread her arms. Byakuya and Hazuki were dumbfounded. “I’ll let you go if you let me follow you.” said Yuuri. “This has nothing to do with you!” said Byakuya. “Well… not now. You might thank me one day.” said Yuuri. Byakuya and Hazuki became speechless. Yuuri held Hazuki’s hand and dragged her to the car.

                        As they reached the Tomoyuki’s house, the three of them got out from the car. Hazuki don’t have any strength to see her father. Yuuri gave Hazuki her hand. Hazuki looked at Yuuri gloomily. “Shall we go?” Yuuri asked while smiling. Hazuki nodded her head and held Yuuri’s hand. They went into the house.

                        As they reached the living room, they Hazuki’s parents, discussing something with the Kenichi. Akira looked at them. He became really furious when he saw Yuuri. “What’s this Sohma girl doing here?!” Akira asked angrily. Yuuri only hung her head low. Byakuya held Hazuki’s hand thightly and bowed. All of them were shocked. “Byakuya…” Hazuki whispered gloomily. “Please stop this, father. Uki won’t be happy with this marriage.” Byakuya begged. “What’s all this, Akira?” asked Seichi’s father, Kaito. Akira looked at him gloomily and apologized. He looked at Byakuya angrily. “Are you out of your mind, Byakuya?!” Akira scolded angrily. Byakuya only hung his head low. “Please stop this, Mr Tomoyuki. You will never make Uki happy.” Yuuri begged gloomily. Hazuki was dumbfounded. “You have no right to say what’s the best for my daughter! You’re just a reveller! Get out from my house right now!” Akira snarled angrily. Yuuri only hung her head low. “Father! Yuuri is not like that at all! She had nothing to do with this!” said Hazuki, trying to defend Yuuri. “Shut up and go to your room!” Akira scolded Hazuki angrily. Hazuki’s patient was being tested. She dragged Yuuri into her room. She entered her room and slammed the door really hard. “Uki… are you okay?” Yuuri asked andxiously. “I’m sorry… I’m really sorry… My father shouldn’t said those harsh words t you… I’m really sorry…” said Hazuki while holding Yuuri’s hand really tightly. Tears started to roll down her cheeks as she sank on her bed. Yuuri sat beside her and wiped Hazuki’s tears with the back of her hand. “Don’t worry about it.” said Yuuri while smiling. Hazuki put her head on Yuuri’s shoulder and cried openly. Yuuri hugged Hazuki and patted her gently. Yuuri tried to calm Hazuki down.

                        Yuuri came out from Hazuki’s room. As she was walking, suddenly, Byakuya pulled Yuuri’s hand. Yuuri stopped and hung her head low. “Yuuri… thank you for persuading Hazuki to come home.” said Byakuya. Yuuri parried her heand. Byakuya was dumbfounded. “Tell me something… why is it that you hate me and my family so much?! What did we ever done to you?!” Yuuri asked while looking at Byakuya angrily. “It’s not me… It’s my father… I don’t know the reason at all…” Byakuya explained. “That’s not point! Why?! Why do you hate us so much?! It’s not fair!” said Yuuri angrily. She was fuming with anger. “That’s enough!” Yuuri was dumbfounded. She turned around and saw Hatsuharu, walking towards her. Hatsuharu patted Yuuri’s head and smiled calmly. “Ha… Haru.” Byakuya’s voice shook when he saw Hatsuharu.

CHAPTER 6

                       “Hey, Uki! Wake up! It’s almost noon now.” said Yuuri while shaking Hazuki’s body vigorously.  “Oh, come on… it’s Saturday… Let me sleep for another five minute.” Hazuki muttered sleepily. Yuuri sighed and grinned. She tickled Hazuki until Hazuki woke up. Hazuki laughed really loud and dragged herself to the toilet. “By the way, Uki, where’s your beloved doll rabbit? Roger is it?” asked Yuuri curiously. “Oh, I kept it in a big red box next room. Why did you ask?” Hazuki asked curiously. “Just curious, that’s all.” said Yuuri while smiling. Without feeling suspicious, Hazuki took her pink towel and went into the toilet. 

                   After they had their breakfast, they went to Yuuri’s house. As they arrived, they went straight to Yuuri’s room. When Yuuri opened the door, Hazuki was very surprised when she saw Hakuren, sitting on the bed, with his mouth and hands tied up. Yuuri pushed Hazuki into the room. “You two should talk in here for a while.” said Yuuri while smiling innocently. “Wha… What the heck have you done, Yuu?!” Hazuki screamed in disbelieve. She tried to get out from the room but fail. Hazuki and Hakuren could feel a dark aura, coming from Yuuri. Yuuri took out a fluffy brown doll rabbit. Hazuki was shocked. “When did you take my Roger?!” Hazuki asked as panic rose in her throat. Yuuri looked at Hazuki with an evil grin. Hazuki had a heavy sweat. “Listen, Uki…I’ll give this doll to Kisa if you try to run away or do something stupid.” warned Yuuri. “So, I hope you two will have a great time together.” said Yuuri while smiling innocently. She closed the door and locked it quickly. She held the doll and went to the kitchen. Hazuki tried to open the door but it was no use. She also knocked the door really hard and tried to persuade Yuuri. Hakuren tried to loosen up the handkerchief on his mouth. “Uki! Please untie me first!” Hakuren pleaded impatiently. He was really pissed off with Hatsuharu. Hazuki untied Hakuren quickly. “That girl is really in big trouble.” said Hazuki with an evil aura. Hakuren hung his head low. “So… you still kept the doll that he gave you, huh?” asked Hakuren. ”Well… I…” said Hazuki. She blushed when an image of Yamato appear in front of her. They both talked and discussed about their problems.

                     It’s been thirty minute since Hazuki was forced to stay inside the room. “I can’t take it anymore!” Hazuki complained angrily. She tried to open the window but fail. “Uki…” Hazuki looked at Hakuren curiously. “Do you still like Yamato?” Hakuren asked gloomily. “Well… I…” before Hazuki could finish her sentence, Yuuri interrupted them. “Well now… everything looks fine to me.” said Yuuri while leaning against the wall. Hazuki and Hakuren glared at Yuuri angrily. “Why did you do that for?!” they scolded Yuuri angrily. “Because it’s fun.” Yuuri answered while smiling innocently. “It’s not fun at all!” They scolded Yuuri. “Whatever… Let’s eat.” said Yuuri as she went out from the room. Hazuki and Hakuren followed Yuuri. They had their lunch together.

                          That evening, Yuuri met Kureno at a coffee house near her house. As she arrived at the coffee house, she saw Kureno, sitting beside the window. Yuuri approached him and greeted him. “Sorry I’m late. “ Yuuri apologized as she sat against Kureno. “That’s okay…” said Kureno. Kureno called the waiter and ordered two cup of coffee. “So, what’s up?” asked Yuuri curiously. “Do you still remember your promise?” asked Kureno. Yuuri had a heavy sweat and sighed. “Of course. Don’t worry. I’ll go to the office and helped you out next week.” said Yuuri. A waiter sent their order and leaved. Kureno drank the coffee. “That won’t be necessary.” said Kureno. Yuuri looked at Kureno curiously. “What do you mean?” asked Yuuri. “I came here to ask you a favour. Just think of it as your ‘paper work’.” said Kureno. “What is it?” asked Yuuri. “Keep an eye on Suichi’s family and Kenichi’s family. I heard they sent their son or daughter in your school to study.” said Kureno. “So… what does it had to do with me and the company?” Yuuri asked curiously. Kureno explained everything about the Suichi’s family and Kenichi’s family. Yuuri only sat and listened quietly.

                        “Hey, Yuuri, why is Haru going to school with us?” Hazuki asked curiously. “Didn’t Yuuri tell you?” asked Hatsuharu. Hazuki shook her head. “Haru is going to teach in our school as an English teacher.” Yuuri explained. “Really?!” Hazuki asked with a surprise. “Yupe! Who knows? May be he’ll be our English teacher.” said Yuuri. “Oh, wow! It must be fun if Haru teach us.” said Hazuki happily. The three of them went to the staff room.

                           In the class room, Hakuren was sitting at his seat. Hazuki and Yuuri entered the class room with Hatsuharu. “Good morning, class. I’ll be your new English teacher from now on. My name is Sohma Hatsuharu. But you can call me Mr Haru.” Hatsuharu introduced himself. All of the students looked at Yuuri curiously. “Yupe. I’m her brother.” said Hatsuharu. All of the students were shocked. Yuuri only sighed. “Now then, before I start, we got two new students who will be joining us. Please, come in.” said Hatsuharu. The two students entered the class room. “Please introduce yourself.” said Hatsuharu. “Please to meet you. My name is Suichi Sakura.” said a girl, with pink shoulder length hair and had a pair of green eyes. “Hello, my name is Kenishi Seichi.” said a boy with short brown hair and had a pair of dark blue eyes. “Thank you. Please… take you seat.” said Hatsuharu. Both of them nodded their heads and obeyed him. Yuuri only glare at them.

                       It’s recess. Yuuri and Hazuki were going to the rooftop when Seichi approached them and greeted them. The girls looked at him curiously. “Hello. You must be Tomoyuki Hazuki.” said Seichi while smiling. “Ah, yes. But how did you know my name?” Hazuki asked curiously. Yuuri could fell something was wrong. Yuuri held Hazuki hand. Hazuki was dumbfounded and looked at Yuuri curiously. “Sorry, but we’re in a hurry right now.” said Yuuri. She dragged Hazuki and left Seichi. Sakura approached Seichi. “Looks like our job is going to be though, huh, Seichi?” asked Sakura. They both looked at Hazuki while smiling cynically.

                         At the rooftop, Yuuri, Hazuki, Hatsuharu and the boys were eating together. “Hey! That’s mine!” Gojyo scolded Goku when he saw Goku took his octopus ball. “You’re too late! It’s mine!” Goku ate the octopus ball without any mercy. “Give it back, monkey!” Gojyo scolded angrily. “Who you calling a monkey, cockroach?!” scold Goku. Sanzo knocked both of their heads with a big white paper fan. They both moaned painfully. “Wow… it’s really hard to believe that you’re Yuuri’s brother.” said Hakkai. “Hmm? Why is that?” asked Hatsuharu curiously. “Well, as a start, Yuuri is really tomboyish and violence.” said Hakuren. Yuuri knocked Hakuren’s head really hard. Hakuren screamed in pain. There’s a big red bump on his head. The others were sweat drop. “Oh, yeah! I just remembered something! Didn’t we planned to organise a club, Yuuri?” asked Hazuki. “Oh! I forgot about it!” said Yuuri. “What kind of club?” Hakkai asked. “You’ll see.” said Yuuri. They all finished their food while chatting together.

                    The teacher had call it a day. Some of the students were tidying their stuff. As Hazuki was putting away her stuff in her bag, Seichi approached her. “Let’s go home together, Miss Tomoyuki.” said Seichi while smiling. “Sorry… I want to go home with my friends.” said Hazuki. Sakura approached them. “With them?! Honestly, Hazuki. They’re not competent enough to be your friends.” said Sakura loudly while pointing her finger at Yuuri. Yuuri only hung her head low. “You’re not the boss of me! You have no right to say that at all!” Hazuki screamed angrily. She held Yuuri’s hand and dragged her out from the class room. “Are you okay, Uki?” Yuuri asked gloomily. “Yeah, I’m fine.” Hazuki answered. Yuuri tried to calm Hazuki down.
