Chapter 6:

Accident

Memories with you


"Interesting" I said, looking at the synopsis of the book 

"Have you read it?" Yuki said, sitting just beside me

"No, you read it already?" 

"No, i guess it doesn't matter" she said, taking out the dna paper again 

"Do you believe it?" 

"Yeah, maybe" she said

"Me too, i guess we're kinda similar huh" 

"Perhaps" She looked at me, wanting to say something 

"Rock paper scissors?" 

"Yeah" 

"One, two three" i said, pulling out paper

Tie 

"One, two three" she said, pulling out rock 

Tie

"One, two, three" 

Tie

"uhhhh" I scratched my head, laughing awkwardly

Yuki smiled saying "how about some chess?" 

***

"Huh....." 

I awoke by the sound of banging on my doors. 

Standing nimly on the floor, i immediately head to the door who was now banging even louder

"Y-Yeah....?" 

"Mornin'" A deep voice called out—his body buffed

"Hey Fuu..." 

I scratched my eyes, trying to adjust to the morning light

"Hmmm, you just woke up?" 

"Yeah... Uh, Where is Fuka and Saya...?"

"Not comin'" he said "Both of em got sick" 

"Really, huh" i said, touching my head "Ugh, my head hurts" 

"Hmm" Fuu said "I'll be staying here" 

"what?? We aren't going out?" 

"Nah" he said, closing the door in front of me "Get ready, I'll wait" 

I walked nimly back to my bed, my head heavy. 

"ugh" i said, opening the curtain of my room

The sun shone bright, making me feel a bit better. I quickly changed to my black shirt and immediately head to the living room 

"Hmmm finally" Fuu who sat on sofa said 

"Did i take too long?" I said, walking to the kitchen

On the table, laid a sandwich which was cold

There's a note beside, which read

For Yuka

I looked the note in confusion, as the handwriting looked like mine

***

"Hmmm" Fuu said, smirking at me

"Ugh!" i sat in defeat "So close!" 

"Hmmm, Well played" he said, looking at the time 

"Going now?" i said, looking at the time which showed 12 "Yea, i have a lil bro" 

"Makes sense" 

"Well" He stood up 

The door of our front door opened, 

"Good evening" A female voice filled the room, it was Yuki

"Oh heya" Fuu said, scratching his back "uh, i going now" 

Fuu made his way to the front door and said "See ya Yuka" 

"uh, did i do something?" Yuki looked at me worried

I shool my head "No, he was about to leave anyway"

"Oh, okay..." She looked relieved by what i said, then proceed to head to the kitchen "Uhm, what's this lying around?" 

"Oh, i was planning to cook earlier" i said, approaching her 

"Is it curry?" 

Yuki picked the ingredients on the table and said "Carrots, onion, potatoes..." 

"Yeah, it is curry" i said

"with noodles i suppose?" 

"Wha- how did you know??" i said dumbfounded 

"uhh intuition??" 

"Intuition.... Okay sure" I squinted my eyes in skepticism 

"Anyway! Besides, I like eating it with noodle too!" 

"Oh, really??" i said, realizing my stupidity "Oh! Sorry for putting you on the spot..." 

"it's okay" She smiled

"Wha-" 

I could feel my heart skip a beat. The smile of hers, it really might capture my heart 

My face reddened, my breath labored, it feels so hard to breathe 

"Hey, are you okay?" Yuki approched me, touching my forehead "Kinda hot huh" 

Yuki took my hand, dragging me to the couch

"You should rest" Yuki said, looking at her right arm "your hand is warm" 

"Yours cold" i replied, without thinking "Kinda nice actually" 

"W-Wh-What did you say!?!" she looked at me, her eyes wide

Her voice sounded high pitched, is she mad!?! 

"Hey! Um! I'm sorry!!" i said, making a pleading pose "i-i a-am not t-trying to be weird or anything!" 

"Oh! I'm sorry too! Sorry i acted weird!!" Yuki said "I-I d-didn't mean it too!!" 

"Er, okay, well" I smiled awkwardly at her "Eh!?!" 

My eyes widen, i felt my inside cheering in nervousness 

"It feels nice...." Yuki held my hand, while crouched

"Yeah.... I guess so" i said my eyes feeling heavy now "It's cold" 

"And it's warm"

"Yooo Today so dope!!" the cherful voice of a woman said, as we walked—It was night already

One might think that we were a young couple or something, i mean we were still on our thirties and looked young

But it's still odd hearing a grown ass woman saying that out loud 

"Yep! Hella rad!!" i fist bumped Tsukasa

Damn we're the same i thought, as I opened our front door

With groceries on my hand, i immediately head to the kitchen

Tsukasa who followed, after closing the front door

"Huh, maybe i bought too much" I said, taking a bite at bunch of carrots lying

"Onions, potatoes...." Tsukasa said "by the way, come check this out"

Tsukasa took my hand, as we head to the living room

"Aw how adorable" She said, referring to the two kids on the couch

I approached them, and saw one of them sitting on the floor, while the other on the couch 

The former was Yuki—Tsukasa daughter, and the other... 

"Hmph" I could feel my face smirking maniacally

After all this time

"Finally" Tsukasa smiled, as she hummed to the kitchen again 

"You making curry?" 

"Yep! You read me well!" She hummed "Tsukasa Special Curry coming right up!"
