Kris' POV
"Kris, what do you want." She asked while facing the Cherry blossom tree.
I looked at her in confused. Then I just thought things that I want.
Money? Car? Love life?
"Maybe... I want to see the wonders of the world." I answered then faced the tree beside me.
She reached her hands out and waited for the leaf to land on her palm.
"Do you love me?" She asked again.
The leaf landed on her palm and then she looked at me.
"Why do you asked?" I asked..
I was thinking, why would she asked that.
"I just want to know, if you love me.."
She smiled at me and expecting to my answer.
"You don't need to ask. You already know the answer."
I approached her and patted her head.
"But what if, I'm gone." She asked
"Then I'll find you." I answered
"What if you can't find me?" She asked again.
" Wherever you are, I will look for you and accompany you."
I smiled at her but she just looked at me.
"I'll go back to my first question... Kris, what do you want?"
I suddenly woke up.
I dreamed about her again...
It becomes my nightmare because it reminds me of my past. It reminds me of someone, of something.. I want to forget.
What do I want?..
"I want to see you." I unconsciously said it.
"What a coincidence, I want to see you too."
I almost jumped out of my bed when someone talk to me.
I looked at the person and it was Amazon!
"The hell are you doing first thing in the morning?!" I immediately wrapped my blanket around my body.
I just opened my eyes and this guy was really the first thing I saw.
"What are you doing here in my house?" I irritatedly asked.
I think this scene feels so familiar..
"Is this your house and you can freely enter?!" I added.
I crossed my arms and stood on the bed. I felt so superior, that I'm taller now than this Amazon.
"And how can you entered in my humble home?" I continuously asked.
"Who's that girl?" He's not listening to me and asked about the picture frame on the top of my drawer.
I looked at it and remembered the time when we took that photo together.
"She's Anna." I answered.
"I didn't know that you already had girlfriend. What if she misunderstand us and she'll get hurt?" He asked.
"No, she's more likely a sister to me and.... she's already dead... 2 years ago."
He suddenly become quite. He just looked at me.. and seconds after...
He reached my face with his hand. He touched my lips, at the side of it down to the chin.
I can't move. Our eyes met.
His eyes are clear as the sky. His soft hand touches the lips of mine.
"You.." he started...
And his deep voice that rings in my ears.
And his face—
"You.. have a drool." He innocently smiled.
And his face—.. wait... What?!
And I came back to my senses.
I immediately wiped my mouth and went to the bathroom to wash this shit called drool.
I'm really mad! I really thought goods about him and he just said I have a drool?! That Amazon..
While I was brushing my teeth, this guy suddenly came in and shouted.
"Happy second day, honey!"
I almost choke the toothpaste.
"Don't keep on startling me!" I spit the toothpaste and went out from the bathroom.
I faced him to clear things from him.
"I'll ask again.. how can you entered my house?!"
"Because.."
-A while Ago : Kai's POV-
I was looking at the address of my assistant gaves me. I was looking at the neighborhood, hopefully can find Kris' house.
While driving, I saw underwears hanged outside of an apartment and already knew that.. that's Kris house.
"That's the underwear that kris worn last night." I said to myself.
I saw it when he suddenly bowed down in front of my family. I just can't bear to say it, he'll get angry again.
I knocked on his door many times but nobody answered.
Is there something with Kris? What if he killed himself?
So I tried to open the door. I touched the door knob but.. it broke.
-Present Kris'POV-
"Did what?! You broke my door?! I would be killed by the landlady.." I checked the door and tried to fix it..
"No, it just broke oh it's own." He defended.
"What are you doing here by the way?" I asked.
"My mom hired a spies and we don't want them to know about us, do we? That we're only pretending?" He pulled the curtains of my window and showed me a bunch of men hiding from every corner.
"They're the spies?" I asked.
"Yes." He answered.
"Hmmm.. so what do I cared about that?"
Isn't it good, for them to know? In that case, I'll be free.
"If they know... We both surely be dead." He closed the curtains.
I gulped.
"W-why?" I asked while my lips are trembling.
"Because they know we lied."
Isn't it your fault in the first place?!
I looked at Kai... and I hesitated when I looked at his face.
What should I do?
"Okay, we're going out?" I said.
"Where are we going?" He innocently asked.
"I mean.. go out, date or something like that."
He suddenly smiled like a kid who will be take out by the parents to play.
Is he really happy about that?
I even went out first while stumping my feet and stopped when I realized something.
"Wait, I haven't take a bath yet."
-Outside-
"So..."
We're standing here outside for almost an hour! We're so clueless about this thing. Kai already searched and asked in the internet but most results are R-18!
Did they really think we'll do that?!
"I found something.. again" Kai said while scrolling through his phone.
"What do you found?" I asked.
"It says here, the most important thing to do for fresh couples is to have a date.. Plan A, go out together and visit any place and make a lot of memories like appreciating the sunset, talk about your future or k-ki.."
"Ki?" I asked.
"Kiss.." he said in a very low voice.
"Okay! Let's do ki— wait.. what?! No, no, no! Not even in a million years." I completely refused and steb back a little away from him.
"Is there Plan B?" I diverted the topic.
"There's no other article here.. but before I left my assistant gave me a piece of paper." He took the paper out of his pocket.
"He said it's a list of what usually couples do or they do when they're dating.."
When he's about to read it, a strong wind suddenly came and took the piece of paper away.
"So,.. we're going to follow the Plan A now?" He innocently asked.
"Agghh just what did you do?! Why did you let it go?!"
Our only hope.. it .. it flew into the air.
I breathed deeply to calm down.
"Let's go." I said and started walking.
"To where Kris?" He followed.
"To the place that we can surely make memories."
-Amusement Park-
Wherever you look, all you see are couples! Couples here, couples there, couples everywhere!
Some are holding hands, flirting by staring at each other, some are hugging and beside us are intensely kissing in the corner.
"What's happening here?! Why it's all couples? Where's the kids? The clowns? The funny mascots? And why there's so many hearts here?!" I said as I looked at the surroundings.
"I think, I heard earlier while we entered here that.. the amusement park holds an event for all couples day." Kai said while holding his chin and looks like he's thinking deeply.
I sighed...
I can't back out now, Kai's mom's men are looking at us.
"You decide where to go first." I said.
I don't know much about here so I let him decide. But that moment... I really regretted it I let him decide where to go.
So where here in the roller coaster. Actually I'm not really afraid.. if I'm not riding it.. but the problem is, I'm now riding it.
"Aghhh!!!!! Afhwjskqvxqlaoemlpfghyr!!"
As soon as the ride begun, my soul left me.
"Curse you!! Amazon!!!."
It was as if I was about to lose my life while this guy is stupidly enjoying it.
He suddenly hold my hand..
"Just have fun.." he said..
Yeah he said that but still I'm scared! Minutes past, here I am now in the corner, vomiting.
"Why my surroundings seem to be spinning?" I asked myself.
"Honey, eat this." He came while carrying a cup filled with foods.
"Please don't call me that, it makes me to vomit again." I taked the food and sat on the bench and so did he.
I looked at the cup of food he bought and saw it was an ice cream.
Is he serious? He seriously gave me an ice cream right after I vomited? Whatever I'll just eat it. It's food anyway.
I quickly finished the ice cream..
"Look at you, you still look like a kid. You have an ice cream at your mouth." He said.
"Where, here?" I asked as I tried wiping my mouth.
"No, here."
He wiped it with his thumb. Our eyes met and it was as if, he's the only person I see and I felt the warm from his hand.
"Look at you. I think you really are sick. You are red like last night." He said as he took his hand back.
"I said I'm not blushing!" I immediately looked away.
"I told you.. I didn't said that."
"Look at them. Are they boyfriends?", The girl asked to the one beside her; her boyfriend.
"Look like it is." Her boyfriend answered.
"Haha, man and man? Isn't it weird?"
"Shh, they may hear you." And they left.
We heard all of it, very clear...
Right, why would I got affected by it? This is only a show and all Kai's acts towards me is only a show.
"If you're going to gossip, then make sure you lower your voice. You both clearly ruined our date and is there a problem being a man? Mind your own business." He stood up and faced them.
Why he's starting a fight now. He may get troubled by what's he doing now.
I stood up too and tried to stop him.
"Let them go." I asked him.
"No... They started it.. "
"What's their problems? Let's go babe." The guy taked his girl away and left.
"It just small problem, why make it big?" I asked.
"They hurt you." He sulked.
That made me smiled a bit. I really want to pat him, he look like a puppy being scolded now.
I patted him and gently brush his hair with my fingers.
"Idiot. Why would I get hurt?" I chuckled a little.
I turned around and started walking.
"Let's go."
"Where?" He asked.
"To another place, where both men can freely enter."
-Arcade shop-
I miss this place.
I smelled the whole area. I remembered memories from here, the sour smell from the boys who played whole afternoon. The foods' covers scattered on the ground and the loud noises from the people who look like they're going in a war...
Yep, I really miss this place.
"Do you always come here, Kris?" Kai asked while looking at the whole place.
"Not really.. maybe years, the last time I went here." I answered while looking for a game to play.
"Then what should we do?"
"Let's play this."
We first played the space invader. Because I'm old here.. I'm confident that I'll surely win.
I'm pro.
"I won again!" Kai happily shouted.
"Why is that, I lose again! Amazon, are you cheating?!" I'm finding fault at him.
"No, I only used my own strength and my mind in playing." He answered seriously.
Hmp. You just really made me look how weak I was.
"Tsk! One more!"
"What's this another gay couple?" A guy said.
There's two guys suddenly came and approached us. A guy is wearing red, and the other is wearing blue. They're wearing couple shirt.
"No, we—"..
"Yes, we are and you two?" Kai interrupted.
"What are you talking about?!" I angrily whispered at him.
"They're just everywhere. You know, the spies." He whispered back to me.
"We're just like you." The guy said wearing red.
Compared to the one wearing blue, he's taller. But my Amazon is still the tallest.
"We just saw, how sweet you are while you're both playing." He added.
Is that sweet? I even almost beat this man because I'm always lose.
"By the way, my name is Jake and this is my boyfriend." He wrapped his arm onto his boyfriend's shoulder.
"I'm Len." Said the guy wearing blue, a quite one.
"My name is Kai Evan.. and this is my wife."
He also wrapped his arm around my shoulder.
What's this? Showdown?
I felt the strange stares on these two, it was as if a war was waiting.
"What about you little one?" Jake asked me.
"We are completely strangers. Why would why tell you my name." I said as I crossed my arms.
And the side of my brain telling that, you even have a boyfriend you don't even know at first.
"Why don't we play? We play as duo, both of you and we." He challenged us.
I was right, there's really a war waiting. But they're unlucky because I am the war itself. I'm Pro.. Hahaha
"But whoever loses, should be the one to buy dinner for us."
"Deal!"
"Let the game begin!"
We accepted they're challenge. The game already begun. At first, the game already tensed up. In the middle of the war, we're about to lose.. but here comes Kai, to the rescue.
As the time went on, we did not realize that we were having fun. I forgot what I should have worried about.
"Yes!" We fist bump.
In the end, we won! Well, of course.. it's because of me we won.
"Well, then let's go." Jake said.
"To where?" I asked.
"To buy dinner."
We're here now in the seafood eatery. I thought we're he going to take us. But it just the eatery in front of the arcade shop.
"Just order whatever you want and do not worry about the expenses, it's all on me." He proudly said.
Len just face palm.
"So how long have you been." Jake asked.
Are we really in that stage?
"Two days." Kai answered.
Two days of pretending.
"Woah, fresh couple... So did you two already did it." He grinned.
Len just elbowed him.
"Did what?" Kai innocently asked.
"You know the most important thing that usually couples do."
The most important? Is he talking about date?.. Is going to the amusement park is considered as date? Well, I think it is.
"We did it.. earlier." I proudly said.
"Yes, it's fun." Kai innocently added.
They stared each other with a meaning behind those stares.. and they coughed to break the ice.
"What about you two? How long have you been?" Kai asked them.
"Four years."
That long? I didn't expect that.
We've been here for almost three hours, talking random things. We played some games, then eat again then we drink.
"You know it's not easy for us." Jake started to cry.
At first he laughed then seconds later he suddenly cry then laughed again. Alcohol really hit him.
He talked about many things. Their hardships and their future.
"You know, we are not accepted by our parents and our friends were disgusted by us. We can only depends each other." He suddenly stood up and tried to taked his clothes off.
"What are you doing?" Len stopped him.
"It just feels so hot!" He shouted.
"And can you be quite? Behave yourself." Len tried to make him sit.
All are staring at us and I tried to cover my face because of embarrassment.
"Shhh babe, I will tell everyone all of it! The pain we felt." He put his finger to Len's lip to shushed him.
Jake puts his hands above Len's shoulder and looked at him.
"But I didn't regretted it, because I'm happy that I choose you."
I don't know what should I feel, should I be sad or laugh?
I'm sad thinking of their story and I really want to laugh because of the snot dripping from Jake's nose.
When I'm about to drink the canned beer, I heard a sobs beside me and realized it was Amazon.
"It's okay." Kai said while sobbing.
I forgot... This guy is also drunk. He even the first one who got drunk.
I deeply breathed.
I don't want to remember again the things he did earlier. He was just shouting that I'm his wife, he was even tried kissing me because he said it was part of the Plan A that couples should do.
And I just wished that time to vanish completely.
"Even if I don't experienced what you been through but I understand you." Kai said.
Well, everyone have different experience and trials in their life and I wish someone would tell that to me too.
"Kris."
He looked at me and simultaneously holds my both hands.
"I'm talking to you Kris... Don't be sad, I'll never leave you. You said you don't have family.. it must be really sad."
Should I be happy with this? That there's someone make me feel the feeling that I'm looking for... Or is it dangerous? Knowing this kind of feeling makes me want it more.
I didn't realize, tears dropped from my eyes, down to my cheeks until it fall onto Kai's hand.
"Why are you crying? Are hurt somewhere?" He wiped my tears.
"No.. I'm just happy."
When I cried, Jake also cried then so Kai did .. and didn't expect Len suddenly cried too. We all looked like a fools that been stared by people.
I wanted to continue crying but I was so embarrassed.
What are they doing?
"See you next time." Len said while carrying Jake on his shoulder.
After minutes past.. We're decided to go home now.
"Okay, bye." I said and they already left.
"You're too heavy Amazon!" I said while carrying his weight on my shoulder.
Why did you left your car on my house? What should we do now? There's no taxi here, and my phone is dead.
Even Len and jake didn't bring their phone so no one can disturb their date.. like seriously?
The eatery and even shops here are all close and no one is passing by! Is this coincidence or just a bad luck?!
"Amazon did you bring your phone?" I asked even though I know this guy is sleeping.
He didn't answer so I'm looking in his pockets.
Where is his phone?
When I tried touching the pocket in his back, he suddenly pulled me over into him and hugged me tightly.
"W-what are you doing?! Let me go Amazon."
"Hmm.. I hmm Lo.."
"Did you say something?"
He tried to tell something so I lean over and put my ear near his mouth..
"What did you say?" I asked again...
And that moment..
"I love you."
...That three words keeps on ringing inside my head.
