Pain
Yuzuru is facing Shine —he is frowning and he seems like he didn't know her.
"Sorry, but I can only love SHINE!" He said.
"I am Shine" Shine said convincing Yuzuru.
"No! you are not...you are HANA!" Yuzuru said to her as she see herself wearing a blonde hair.
"Yuzuru please believe me, I am truly Shine!"She convince him more.
"Hana come, time to go" Allen suddenly appear and drag her away from Yuzuru. Kazumi also appear in Yuzuru's side and pull him in a different direction.
"YUZURU!!!"Shine scream her lungs out.
"Yuzu"Shine said as she opens her eyes —her eyes and face are wet from either tears or sweat. It's already been three weeks since her 'Yuzuru moment' but the pain in his face is still hunting her.
"Oh shoot!" Shine said and stand up from her bed almost instantly as she come back to her senses.
Shine did not waste any more time and prepare herself to go to work. She brush her teeth and take a shower. And when she look at herself in the mirror, she see the usual sight of Hana staring back at her with a bright red hair —she seem to be changing her hair color more often now, she change it from pink to purple and now red. She is wearing a white, long sleeves polo shirt with a ribbon and a high-waist black pants. Her shoes is a five inches tall that is red as her hair.
"Ready for work?"Allen asked as Shine is walking down the stairs. After that day with Yuzuru, Allen become more protective of Shine but whether it's for her or for him it's not clear to Shine.
"Yep!"Shine said casually while she put on her khaki colored trench coat.
.....
The past three weeks except for Yuzuru's absence in the club, everything is pretty much the same —Nam and Javier are always present to practice for the World Championship that will be held at Shanghai,China on the last week of March. The two of them are always so cheerful, despite of the fact that they are so tired and exhausted from everyday practice.
Last week, Kazumi is gone for her Junior World Championship. She did well in Estonia, beating the Russian junior figure skater —Evgenia Medvedeva and she will be debuting as a senior in Shanghai according to reports. Today or tomorrow is supposed to be her arrival, but no one is really looking forward in see her again.
"Wow! Hana last week your hair is purple, now it's red!"Monika greet as Shine enter her post.
"I feel kind of rebellious today" Shine reply with a grinto Monika.
"Hello Ladies!"Nam greeted them with much enthusiasm as always.
"Good Morning Nam"Shine greet him happily too.
"And I like your hair" Nam complimented while looking at Shine's hair.
Shine smile at him.
"Nam, here!" Monika handed Nam his keys.
"Thank you. See you gals later" He said with a smile and leave.
Javier follow after several minutes. He greets them and complimented Shine's hair too before he head in the ice rink to practice. The two are not wasting any time to practice their jumps and routines.
Monika then drag two chairs from the back for both Shine and her.
"I can't believe that our days without Kazumi will be over"Monika sadly said and sigh.
"Don't worry because according to reports she will be making her debut in Shanghai, which means we'll only be seeing her in less than two weeks" Shine encouragingly said to Monika.
"Speaking of Shanghai, why Yuzu isn't back here yet? It's been three weeks since he left" Monika concernedly asked.
"Maybe he is not participating?" Shine said unsure as she shrugged her shoulders.
"That's impossible! No one can stop him from skating as in no one. Not even Shine if she is alive!"Monika said the fact.
Shine then remember the memories of Yuzuru that day and it cause her heart to ache again but Shine choose not to show it. Shine shake her head erasing the memories of what happened between her and him.
"You are thinking too much Monika. Don't worry about him, who knows maybe he will do an afternoon practice today"Shine said to Monika but deep inside she also asking herself the same question.
.....
Lunch is over, Monika and Shine go back to the reception when they saw two people standing in front of their desk —laughing.
"Yuzu?" Monika said as Shine and Monika enter their post.
"Kazumi" Monika acknowledges her just for the sake of being 'polite'.
"Hi! Monika!How have you been? " Yuzu happily said as he wave his hands.
"I am fine thank you! So what are you doing here?" Monika asked.
Shine quietly stand next to Monika with a small smile on her face.
"Maybe he's here to practice!" Shine's inner self sarcastically said.
"Just visiting hahaha"Yuzuru hilariously said and laugh. Kazumi laugh too.
"Just kidding. WE are here to practice for the World" Yuzuru said with a positive aura.
"It is just me or he really emphasized the word WE" Shine's inner self jealously said.
But Shine didn't listen to her inner self and just head at the back to get Yuzuru and Kazumi's keys at the cabinet.
"You must have a special connection with Hana. She knows that you will be here today, right Hana!?!" Monika said loud enough for all of them to hear.
Shine exhale before she turn to face them again.
"Ah really?" Yuzuru said as if he is not interested.
"Here!" Shine said with a smile while handing Yuzuru and Kazumi their keys.
Yuzuru get their keys from Shine's hand and say his thank you just for the sake of being 'polite' —he did not even looked at Shine.
Yuzuru handed Kazumi her key and turn her around. He slightly bow his head to Monika and Shine. And he then playfully push Kazumi to go inside ice rink —they've become really close.
"He is ANGRY at you!!!" Shine's inner self said what she's been fearing these entire time.
