Shunsuke’s POV

"Shunsuke, where did you leave Rikka-chan?!" Michiru asked as she opened the door. I thought she said she wont let me in.

"Near the park, why?" I asked bit she just walk past me.

"She still hasnt come back." Ikumi answered for her.

"Geez, why did you leave her?!" Michiru asked. She is angry and worried at the same time.

"There’s no time for that, we need to find her first!" I said and ran again back to the place but she’s not there.

"Lets try calling her." Ikumi suggested but she isnt picking it up.

"She’s not answering it, dammit!" I shouted as I almost threw my phone.

"We need to find her before it gets dark."

We had been searching for Yuri in the whole city for about an hour now and guess what? She is still nowhere to be found and the rain never stopped.

"This is impossible...." I complained.

"Do you think we should tell the police?" Michiru asked.

"No, lets try searching one more time." Ikumi said.

"I’m tired!" I complained.

"Quit complaining, this is all your fault!" Ikumi angrily shouted at me.

"Stop, Ikkun. That wont do any good. Lets just keep searching." Michiru said and we continued searching for Yuri.

Just where in the world did she went off to?

I keep shouting her name until I saw the familiar strands of pink hair. She looked at me with blood-shot eyes. She had been ceying this whole time. I am a failure as a friend.

Yurika’s POV

I am just wandering on the city like a lost kid with no exact direction. I dont care anymore. I can just get randomly ran off by any kind of vehichle out there. I giess that will be better than this- I failed on my first love.

"Yurika!" I heard someone call my name. Its Shun’s voice.

"Rikka-chan!" Its Nana-chan! Why are they searching for me?

"Yuri-" He was cutt off when he saw me in front of him.

"I’ve found her!" He shouted. Looks like the three of them had been searching for me this whole time......... Why?

"Rikka-chan, what happened?!" My best friend asked as she hugged me.

"I’ll tell you later. For now, lets go home. Its getting cold." I said and she nodded.

Michiru’s POV

"Here have this." Rikka-chan’s mom said as she handed me a cup of hot chocolate.

"Thank you." I said and took the cup and took a sip, "Hot."

"Of course, since it is a hot chocolate." Ikkun teased me.

"Just what came to your mind and you didnt go home?! We got worried you know?!" My best friend got scolded by her father.

"Sorry...." She apologized

"Dont do that again." Her mom said and then let her join us.

"Its Shunsuke’s fault!" She said as she sat down near me.

"Yup." I agreed.

"You left Izumi in the mansion?" She asked me.

"No, we dropped her home before we searched for you. And its not a mansion, just a house."

"Oh, okay. Lets go to my room, I’m gonna tell you something." She said and stood up.

"Eh? What is it? Something private?" I asked as I followed her upstairs

"Very private." She said and opened the door to her room.

Her room is as pink as her hair. We sat down on her bed and she began talking.

"I honestly liked Shunsuke for about half a year now." She started.

"Eh?! You should have told me!" I began to feel like fangirling now.

"Well.....now that I got rejected," She looked at her feet, "Its still there."

"What do you mean?" I asked.

"I mean the feelings are still there. I dont seem to be over him." She said while looking down.

"But that’s just normal since you had just confessed. I mean do you expect the feelings to be gone right after confessing? That’s impossible. You still need to face him." Wow I sounded like a love expert there.

"Then, ignoring wont do...."

"Yup, ignoring wont solve a thing." I nodded.

Suddenly, her frown turned into a cheeky smile, "Have you had an arguement with Ikumi before? You know, a lover’s quarrel?"

"Wha-!" I got shocked by that question!

"Heh." She smirked.

"Well, me and Ikkun doesnt get along really well but we never had any arguements before, except our childish fight everytime is a legitimate arguement." I answered her question from earlier.

"How about kiss?" She smirked again.

"I told you, our relationship is just a contract, so never !" I said while blushing madly.

"Eh? Are you sure?" She asked while trying to hide the smirk.

"Well.... He had kissed me," I said while looking down, "Twice."

"Kyaaa! I knew it!!!!" She squealed while shaking me.

"Its only on the forehead! Dont be so malicious!" I said and smacked her.

"Owww...." She said while rubbing her back.

"So, what’s the plan?" I changed the topic.

"What do you mean?" She asked.

"How about you confess again? Ask him out this time." I said.

Shunsuke’s POV

Monday. And I am back at school. Michiru almost didnt let me inside the house when we got back but luckily, Ikumi convinced her.

As I opened my locker, I saw a letter inside. I took it and examined the letter. Its a love letter. °\\\\\\° Who sent this?! Could it be......

I ran towards our classroom as fast as I can and saw her sitting on her assingned seat- next to me.

"Yuri." I called her name even though I expected that she will ignore me.

"Yes?" She replied as usual. Weird, isnt she supposed to avoid me after what happened last time? Oh, well.

"Did you put this on my locker?" I asked as I showed her the letter and her face immediately turned to bright pink.

"S-s-so what if i did?!" She asked as she turned her head to my opposite direction.

"Eh? I never expected you’ll write something like this. Let’s see....'Dear Shun-' " I am about to read her letter but she covered my mouth.

"Idiot! Dont read it out loud! And dont read it in front of me!" She scolded me. She turned into a tsundere now, I see...

"Okay," I said and turned around.

"Where did I stopped? Oh.... 'Dear Shunsuke, I-' " I read out loud. And I am purposely doing this to annoy her.

"I told you do not read it out loud!" She shouted.

"You gave me this letter. I will read it the way I wanted to." I said and sticked my tongue out.

"Why, you...." She said in irritation. She’s cute- specially when she’s angry.

"Its nice to have a girlfriend, right Shunsuke?" I heard Ikumi’s voice from behind me.

"Yuri is not my girlfriend!" I shouted at him.

"What are you talking about? I never mentioned a name." He said, leaving me speechless.

"Next time, instead of insulting her, you should try asking her out." He said while patting my shoulder before going to his seat. What’s with that guy?!
