Age Matters

Chapter 1

"Mitsuki, Its time for breakfast!" Mom shouted.

My eyes open slowly. I looked at my alarm clock.

"Its 6:00 am" I mumbled.

I got out of my bed and stretch a little bit before going to the bathroom.

A couple of minutes later.....

I put on my uniform and went to the dinning room.

"Morning Mom" I kissed her cheeks.

"Morning sweetie" Mom placed the plates on the table.

"Where's Dad?" I asked.

"Dad left early today. He said that he had an important meeting today" Mom answered.

"First day of school. Don't wanna be late" I chewed my food fast that I almost choked.

"Mom, I'm finished... I'm leaving" I got my bag and about to leave when my mom called me.

"Mitsuki Hayashi, Always do your best. Your father and I are always here to support you no matter what" Mom kissed my forehead.

"I will Mom. I love you" I hugged my mom.

"I love you too sweetie. Have a wonderful day at school" Mom hugged me back and smiled.

"Have a wonderful day too Mom" I smiled at her.

"I can take you to school if you want" Mom suggested.

"No thanks mom... Hansuki and I will go to school together"

"Sure... Be careful" Mom's eye were kinda sad.

"Don't worry Mom... I'll be fine"

I walked towards the door and before opening it I waved at my mom and smiled.

Bzztttt.... Bzzzttt....

I reached on my pocket and looked on the screen.

Hana calling......

"MITSUKI!!!!" Hana shouted on the phone..

"Hana my ear almost bleed" I said with my cold voice.

"Sorry Mistuki, I just miss you" Hana apologized.

"I MISS YOU TOO HANA!!!!" I shouted back and starts laughing.

"Hahahahaha same old.. Can't wait to see you" Hana giggled

"Me too.. Meet you at the rooftop.. Muwah~" I smiled.

"See you... Muwah~" Hana ended the call.

I walked towards Hansuki house...

I rang the door bell... The door opened slowly..

"Goodmorning Mrs. Mori" I greeted Hansuki's mother.

"Goodmorning Mitsuki" Mrs. Mori smiled.

"Sorry to bother you... Is Hansuki here?" I asked.

"Oh don't worry its fine... He just left with his girlfriend" she answered.

*That bastard*

***Flashback***

Bzzttt... Bzztttt

Stupid bestiee calling....

"What do you want?" I asked with my cold voice.

"Still cold as ever... Let's go to school together" he used his cute voice...

"Thats not going to work... And why?"

"Pleaseeee... My girlfriend don't want us go to school together" his voice was sad and I can't stand it...

"Fine... I'll go to your house tomorrow" I sighed.

"Really?" his voice changed and I can sense that his eyes were twinkling...

"Okay if you don-" he cuts me off...

"No.. Lets go together" he chuckled.

"Okay... Goodnight stupid!" I rolled my eyes and stop myself from laughing.

"I told you not to call me that" he used his cute voice again.

"Okay... Okay.. Sorry" I giggled.

"Goodnight Mitsuki" he ended the call...

I looked at my phone...

"I hope you won't ditch me like the last time or else you will pay" I put my phone on the desk and closed my eyes...

***End of flashback***

"Mitsuki are you okay?" Mrs. Mori asked worriedly.

"I'm fine Mrs. Mori, I just thought Hansuki and I will go to school together like the old days" I forced a smile....

"Sorry Mitsuki.. Maybe next time... I will tell him"

"No need, I'll talk to him later... I gotta Mrs. Mori..." I smiled and left.

*That bastard ditched me again!!! Arghhhh... This time he will pay*

*A c**ouple of minutes later*.....

Finally I'm at school... Sakura High School... I'm back...

I hurriedly went to the rooftop...

*I hope Hana is there... I want to tell her how pissed I am*

I was running so fast that I bumped into someone...

"I'm so sorry... I didn't meant to" I looked at the person I bumped into...

My eyes widen...

"Its okay... Be careful next time" He said with a cold voice and left...

I was still shocked who it was....

*My day just keeps getting worse*

I sighed and ran upstair....

"Hana, you here?" I looked around and she wasn't here.

*Where is she? I hope that she didn't ditch me or else she and Hansuki will pay* I pouted...

"BOO!!!" Hana surprised me...

"You bitch!" I screamed at her and almost threw my shoes at her....

"Awww... I'm sorry... Just planning to surprise you but you seem off.... Are you okay?" she looked at me....

I sat on the bench and sighed....

"My day just keep getting worse.... Hansuki ditch me.. He said we will go together but he left with his girlfriend... That bastard... I'm so pissed right now!" I took a deep breath to clam down..

"Hahahaha I thought you were pissed at me" she laughed...

"If your dare ditch me... Think about the consequences" I glared at her and smile wickedly...

"I know... I know..." she gave me a wide smile...

"Tell me whats wrong?" she sounded serious...

"Just this morning... I was running towards the stair then I bumped into him" I sighed heavily....

Her eyes widen and her jaw opened...

"Wait... You mean him?" she panicked a little bit..

"Yeah...." my voice cracked..

"Are you okay?" her eyes were full of worries..

"I'm fine... Don't worry... I got this" I smiled at her....

She sighed and looked at me in the eyes...

"Just tell me... I'm always here right beside you" she held my hand and smiled...

"Hey about your summer.. How was it?" she asked suddenly...

"Well... Let me tell you all about it" I giggled...

Couple of minutes later....

"Its almost time for class... We should get going"

I checked the time...

"7:30... See you at lunch?" I fixed myself...

"Sure... Lets buy at the cafeteria and eat here" she sugessted..

"Okay... And who ever ditches has to pay for lunch" I smiled....

"Your on" she puts her mischivous face...

"Don't try anything funny"

We both laughed and says goodbye at each other...

As I got in to my class... It was noisy... Girls talking about crushes..... Boys laughing at jokes....

I saw Hansuki laughing with his bestfriend...

"Hansuki" I walked towards him and pinched his arm...

"Oh... Mitsuki" he called me nervously...

"You know the drill" I smiled

"Please don't do this" he used his puppy eyes..

" Well.. Its your fault for ditching me so buy me lunch later" I crossed my arms....

"Look.. I'm sorry... I didn't know that she changed her mind...Please don't" he pouted..

"Shut up... Buy me lunch or else" I threatened him...

"Okay.. Okay..." he finally gave in...

"See you later" I winked at him...

*I don't want to sit next to him.... Beside he is sitting next to his bestfriend*....

I walked towards a seat beside the window.... I don't have a seatmate yet... I hope its a girl rather than a boy....

I checked my watch..... 7:45... 15 minutes before class starts...

I put the earphones and listen to piano music... I always wanted to be a professional pianist...

I closed my eyes as the wind brushes my skin... Feeling every beat... Tapping my desk lightly...

I was so lost that I didn't notice that everyone has taken their seat....

I looked around and saw him.... He looked at my seat...

*Don't take my seat*

He walked towards me...

*Please don't*

I closed my eyes and crossed my fingers...

"Is this seat taken?" he asked in an icy tone...

*Dang!!!! I'm doomed*

"No.." I answered not giving him a single look...

He sat beside me and the teacher finally entered...

I looked around to find him another seat...

*So thats why he seated next to me.... Because there's no seats left except this seat beside me... *

I took a deep breath and clear my mind....

*His just a stranger... Yeah.. A stranger*

"Goodmorning class... I'm Haruka Chu but call me Ms. Haruka... I hope you guys will do your best" she greeted us...

"Goodmorning Ms. Haruka" everyone greeted...

"As I call your name... Go infront and introduce yourself" Ms. Haruka said while checking the attendance...

*I hope that things go well...* I sighed...

I'm last because I seated at the back of the class...

***A couple of minutes later*.....

"Kaito Suzuki" Ms. Haruka said...

My eyes widen... Heart beating so fast... Hands are sweating so much....

*What should I do?.... Don't panic Mitsuki... He's a stranger* I tried to calm myself....

He stood up and walked infront...

"Goodmorning, My name is Kaito Suzuki... Hope to be friends with you all" He lower his head and before he take his seat, he stared at my eyes and gave me an icy stare...

"Kyahhh... His cuteeee" girls screamed...

"Shhh... Quiet" Ms. Haruka hushed the girls....

He walked towards his seat

*Why did I ever do to you to give me that cold treatment?* I just looked at my desk....

He took his seat and Ms. Haruka called me...

"Mitsuki Hayashi"

I walked infront of the class and introduced myself...

"Hello everyone... I am Mitsuki Hayashi... Can't wait to work with you guys" I smiled and lower my head...

"You may take your seat" Ms. Haruka smiled..

Every step I take my heart was beating loud...

I was looking at him and he looked back... It send shiver down my spine...

I looked away and take my seat...

"Okay... Thats all of you... I hope everyone will get along" Ms. Haruka smiled...

*I really hope though*

"Okay bring out your handbook and write your schedules" Ms. Haruka started writing on the board...

I bring out my handbook and started writing...

While I was writing I notice that Kaito was looking at me... I tried my best to focus on writing the schedules...

*Dang... Please stop it...*

I looked at him to make him stop.... Its too annoying... But he looked away and started writing again...

***Why are you like this**?

*I'm kinda worried about him....

*A couple of minutes later*....

Ding.... Ding****....

The bell rang... I didn't notice... Its lunch time...

"Okay class... thats all for now... Happy lunch" Ms. Haruka smiled..

"Thank you Ms. Haruka" we all lower our heads...

As soon as Ms. Haruka left... I walked towards Hansuki who was sneaking away...

"Ahem.... Did you forget something?" I touched his shoulder and he jumped a little....

"Ahhh n-no.." he stammered..

"Good... I'll get my bag... Wait for me" I walked towards my seat and fixed my things...

Before I left the room... I glimpsed at him....

*What did I ever do to you? Why do you treat me like this?*

I was so lost in my thoughts that I didn't notice Hansuki called me many times....

"Mitsuki.... Mitsuki.... Earth to Mitsuki" he was waving his hand infront of me...

I blinked many times and notice that Kaito left the room...

*How long was I gone?*

"Sorry... I was thinking of what food you should buy" I smiled...

"Hurry up... Hitomi is waiting for me" he pulled me out of the room....

I rolled my eyes and followed him...

*I hope he didn't notice that I was looking at Kaito... That would be bad*

*Cafeteria*

"Mitsuki.." Hana waved at us...

"Hey Hansuki.... You're here to buy Mitsuki lunch right?" she smirk...

"Oh shut up Hana" he was pissed...

"Buy me lunch too..." she teased him....

"No... I owe Mitsuki" he rolled his eyes at her....

Hana and I just laugh..... Like the old days...

***Flashback

"You said that we will go to school together**" I pouted...

"Sorry... You se-" he was scratching his neck..

"You know the consequences right?" I cut him off and smiled wickedly...

"NO... I won''t buy you anthing" he shooked his head....

"What did you just said?" I crossed my arms...

"Okay... Okay.... I'll buy you food" he pouted...

"Thank you" I smiled widely...

"Just don't tell Hitomi.... Okay?" he used his cute voice....

"I won't..... Just buy me food.... If we went to school together none of this will happen" I shooked my head....

We had a deal.... Evertime he ditch me or I ditch him... Will buy food... And I found a way to make him buy me food if he don't want to.... His secret that Hitomi doesn't know....

***End of flashback**

"What would you like?" Hansuki asked..

"Pasta and coke please... Thank you" I smiled...

"I will have what she's having" Hana giggled...

"Oh shut up Hana and come with me... I owe her" he left and went to the cashier...

"Will you be okay? I will order my food.. Poor Hansuki" she looked at me..

"I will be fine... I'll wait for you here... Well its Hansuki's fault" we laughed and she went to the cashier....

I took out my phone and saw my mom's messages...

*Hmmm... I hope nothing bad happened*

I was trembling when I pressed my mom's messages....

***From: Mom

Sweetie... Your father and I have a surprise for you... Come home early okay***? ^_^

*I thought something bad happened..... Hmmm a surprise? What kind of surprise is it?*

***To Mom:

I smiled while texting my mom....

***Ting..... Ting...

From Mom:

I shooked my head...

*Oh mom and dad... Just full of surpises*

"Here you go" Hansuki gave me my pasta and coke...

"Thank you.."

"I need to go... Hitomi might be angry if I let her wait for too long... See you later.." he wave and left....

While I was waiting for Hana... I received a text from a stranger...

**From 09********

Hey... Mit mit.. Remember me?

*Mit mit?..... What the?.... No way**!!!

My eyes widen as I read this message...

"You seem shocked... Something happened?" Hana showed up...

"Someone texted me"

"Well? Who is it?" she asked...

"I'll tell you at the rooftop... Lets go" we got out food and went to the rooftop....

*Rooftop*

"Finally... I'm starving..." Hana take her lunch out...

"Hahahahaha..... Lets eat...." I laughed

We were eating then she suddenly mention the text...

"By the way.... Who is it?" she asked while chewing her food...

"Who?" I played dumb..

"Oh come on Mitsuki..." she rolled her eyes at me...

"Just kidding.... It was my childhood friend" I drank my coke...

"Looks like we will have a new couple" she teased me....

"Maybe.... Whatever he's just a friend"

Hana shooked her head and sighed.....

*15 minuts passed*

"Lets get to class.... Its almost time" I said and fixed myself...

"Lets walk home together"

"Okay" I smiled...

"Oh... By the way don't forget to tell me later"

"What?" I was a bit confused...

"You know about him..."

"Sure... I'll tell you if you tell me your crush but no more excuses" I smirked...

"Deal"

*She haven't told me about her crush... She always change the topic.... Hmmm I wonder why?"

We have a little chat and went our separate ways...

*In class*

Nothing much happened.... Just a little bit of dicussion... Kaito as usual giving me his cold icy stare...

**Ding... Ding....

"Thats all for today class**"

"Thank you Sir Mitsumi" we all lower our heads....

"Hansuki... wanna go home together?" I asked...

"Well.. I have other plans... Sorry"

"Its okay... Atleast this time you won't ditch me" I giggled..

"You're such a meanie" he pouted...

I just smiled and rolled my eyes...

*Still cute but stupid as usual*

We cleaned our room....

While I was cleaning the desk... I felt something strange..

*Is someone watching me?*

I looked around and found Kaito staring at me.... Then he looked away....

*What the hell Kaito!*

I shrugged it off... This won't do any good if I keep thinking it...

As we finished cleaning.... I went to change my shoes and waited Hana in the gate....

*Where is she?*

I checked the time...

3:30 p.m

"MITSUKI" Hana jumped on me...

"What the heck Hana!"

"Hahaha lets get going"

We walked to her house first...

"Mitsuki... Lets go to my room and have a little chat" she invited me into her house....

"Not now... I need to get home early... Mom said that they have a surprise for me... Sorry"

I gave her an apologetic look..

"No worries... Just text me... Tell me all the details later" her eyes were twinkling...

"**Okay.... I will tell you just don't forget to tell me who it is"

"Yes.. yes**..." she rolled her eyes and we laughed...

I hugged her and left... I went home fast as I could...

*At home*

I knocked on the door...

"You're back sweetie" Mom opened the door and hugged me...

"What the surprise Mom?"

"Go inside and you will see"

Chapter 3

As I walked in, I saw my father talking to someone.

"Honey, Mitsuki' home" Mom said.

"Hey sweetie. Come here let me introduce you to your new teacher" Dad smiled.

"Sweetie after your father introduced your new teacher. Help me in the kitchen to prepare dinner" I nodded then mom walked towards the kitchen.

I walked towards my father and the man he was talking to. I was very curious, new teacher for what?

As I got there, I saw the man's face. My jaw almost dropped.

*He's Hisashi Yamada! My idol. One of the greatest pianist in the world that I've been wanting to meet. My inspiration.* I was screaming inside but not letting him know that I am a fan of his.

"Sweetie, this is Hisashi Yamada and Hisashi this is my daugther Mitsuki" My dad introduced us both and I was still shocked.

"Hello, Mitsuki I will be your piano teacher. Can't wait to teach you" He gave me his best and extended his hand to shake.

"Please take care of me. Sir Yamada" I gave him my sweetest smile and shook his hand.

I felt something that I haven't felt in anyone else.

*Thump... Thump... Thump*

*What the heck? Maybe I'm just excited because anyone else would feel this way when they met their idol* I just threw my thoughts away.

"Dad, I'll get going. I will help mom in the kitchen" I whispered to dad and he just nodded.

"I will tell you later, how is your idol, Yamada, is your piano teacher" My dad winked at me.

"Dad!" I felt so embarassed and looked at Yamada.

He chuckled and looks straight into my eyes.

*Is it just me or his eyes wants to tell me something?*

I felt something again but shrugged it off.

I went to the kitchen to help my Mom prepare dinner.

"Sweetie, after we finish cooking dinner. Take a shower" Mom told me.

"Okay Mom" I smiled and started cutting the vegetables.

While I was cutting the vegetables, I felt someone is staring at me. I looked around and saw his eyes on me. When he noticed me looking to him as well he quickly turned away and talked to my father.

*My Idol is looking at me. Literally!!! I will tell this to Hana* I giggled and cutted the last vegetable.

After a Few Minutes later...

We finished cooking dinner. I sometimes saw Hisashi staring at me. I wonder why?

"Sweetie after you fixed the table. Take a shower" Mom said.

I nodded and put the last plate.

"Mom, I finished putting all the plates. I will take a bath now" I said it to my Mom then I went up to my room.

*Bzzzttt.... Bzzzttt*

*Hana calling*....

"Hana you would not believe what just happened!" Iscreamed a little bit, can't hide the excitement.

*"Tell me all the details. I want everything! and I mean everything"* I can feel the excitement on her as well.

"I will tell you later, I need to take a bath and eat dinner" I told her while getting my clothes.

*"Okay, call you later... Muwah"* she giggled.

"Muwah" I ended the call.

I need to wear something nice. Perhaps a shirt and shorts. I wore my favorite cat shirt and comfy shorts that my dad bought me.

Few Minutes Later....

After I finished taking a bath and drying my wet hair. I went downstairs.

I saw them all laughing in the dining room.

"Sweetie, come now and lets eat" My mom called me.

Our table is a little bit big but square shape. I was facing my dad. Mom and Hasashi is beside my dad.

"I see, you wore your favorite shirt and short" dad teased me.

"Dad its just a shirt and short" I answered back.

"You look so cute" Mom also teased me as well.

"Mom, please" I pleaded.

"Okay we just love to tease our baby" Mom pinched my cheeks.

"Mom, it hurts" My mom pulled of and I rubbed my cheeks.

I took a glimpse on Hasashi. He was laughing but not looking at me.

*This is so embarassing* I sighed and took my seat.

While we were eating Hasashi choked.

"Are you okay?" I asked and gave him a glass of water.

He took the glass on my hand but while he was taking it he accidentally touched my hand.

*Thump.... Thump.... Thump*

*There it is again, what's wrong with me? Am I sick or something?*

I just didn't mind the questions running on my head.

"Thank you" he smiled and continues to eat.

"Are you sure Hisashi?" my dad asked.

"I'm fine, thanks to Mitsuki" he answered.

He looked at me and smiled.

*He said my name! My name! I don't know what is happening to me... My heart won't stop beating that fast*

*Thump.... Thump... Thump*

*Stop it heart! This is not a good time!* I was talking to myself.

"Just doing the right thing to do" I answered.

Mom and Dad laughed while Hisashi chuckled.

"What?" I was confused.

"Nothing sweetie, you just look so adorable" Mom teased.

"Mom, stop it" I pouted.

"That's enough honey, we have a guest"

Dad turned to look at Hisashi.

"We are very sorry for our behaviour" dad apologized.

"It's fine, plus I'm enjoying" He laughed and mom and dad joined him as well.

While I just sat and eat my food.

A few minutes have passed...

"I'll be going now Mr. Hayashi"

"Take care Mr. Yamada, I'll see you next week" my dad extended his hand.

Mr. Yamada shook my dad's hand.

"Get home safely Mr. Yamada" my Mom said shook his hand as well.

"Thank you Mrs. Hisashi" he smiled.

"Thank you Mr. Yamada" I smiled and looked straight into his eyes.

*Those blue eyes are just so beautiful, I can't look away* I felt like I was hypnotized by his eyes.

"Thank you Ms. Hisahi" he gave me a different smile. A smile that I haven't seen before.

***Thump... Thump... Thump...

*There it is again. I need to see a doctor**

Mr. Yamada walked towards his car and before he goes in, he waved at us, but he gazed into my eyes and smiled at me.

I blushed after he went insed his car and drove off.

"Mitsuki are you alright? You're face is red" My mom held my face.

"Yes, I'm fine. I'm just tired" I yawned.

"Brush your teeth before you go to bed" My mom said and walks to the kitchen to clean up.

"Mr. Yamada will teach you next week, so you better prepare yourself" My dad messed my hair.

"Yes dad. Good night" I kissed my father cheeks and went to the kitchen to say good night to my mom as well.

I went to my room quickly and message Hana.

*Hey Hana, I will tell you tomorrow all the details. I'm already tired. I promise that you will love it* Sent...

She replied quickly...

*It's okay Mitsuki but I hate it when you don't tell it to me quickly. Not even a little spoiler?*

I giggled and replied.

***Nope... Tomorrow you will get a the details that you want

*Fine... Good night, see you tomorrow. Muwah*

*Good night, see you tomorrow too, Muwah**

I went to my bathroom and brushed my teeth.

As I lay down to my bed, I remember Mr. Yamada.

"Are you try to tell me something? What are you thinking?" I whispered to myself and fell asleep.
