The two of them felt the evening breeze as the soft air blew against their skin. He thought for a while. He lifted his shoulder up, he ran his fist at the side of his jaw, "I'm not sure. Maybe head home since Veronica would be back home early today," he said to her. She nods her head, "Ah, okay. That sounds like a good plan," she said to him with a slight chuckles. She sighs, "Well, I think you should...." But before she could finish her sentence, he suddenly received a call from somebody.
Sakurai took out his mobile phone and looked at who it was calling him. He smiled slightly when he sees her name that was calling for him. "Uh, Mikayla, hold on. I have a call," he said. She stops as he stood at the side of the road. She look at his direction, "Okay," she said. She sighs and looked away from him. He answered the call and he walked slightly further away from her. She leaned back against the buliding wall she stood beside. She looks around her as the night slowly falls as the sun shades fades away. She inhaled a deep breath before she changes her gaze towards his direction that's still in the call. She furrows her face slightly before she sighs again.
"Ugh, it must be Veronica," she said. She felt her heart race at the same time. She looks away for a moment before she looks at him again. His face expression that was smoking earlier changes I need a short time. She raises her eyebrow. He nods his head before he hung up the call. He walks back towards her direction . She looks at him that doesn't seems really happy... She raises her eyebrow up, "Eh, what's wrong with you... Don't don't seems happy," she said to him before he stops close to him. He sighs as he put his phone in his pcket. He pouts slightly.... "I thought she'd be back home early but she got to stay for extra hours with her work," he said. He stood close to her. She raised her eyebrow again and thought for a while...
"Oh, so that mean you have a few more free hours before you got to be home ?" She asked him. He nods his head, " Oh, what else should I do? I'd be a single man got a few more hours," he said to her. She married her eyebrow before she smirks slightly. "Well, if you'd be a free man for a few hours," she said before she grabs his hand. He looks at her direction, "What?" he asked her. "Then we should go and have an early dinner before I starve to death!" she said to him. "Eh?" He said. She pulls his hand towards the mall across the street.
..
After a while the two of them had their dinner together at a diner inside the mall. Sakurai went to the counter to make the payment while Mikayla sat at the table. After the payment was done, he walks back towards the table with the resort in his hand. He looks at Mikayla that's finishing her drinks. "Okay, payment are done. I think we should get going now," he said. She looks at his direction but he looks at his watch at the same time, "and it's getting late for me too... I don't want her to reach home before I did," he said. Mikayla looks at him statically for a second before she raised her eyebrows up, "Heh, seriously ?" she asked. He looks at her slyly, "Well, I'm a generous man, what else can you say about me ?" he asked her. He made his way out from the shop. Mikayla looks at his direction, "Hey," she said. She looks around the table to see if they'd left anything behind. She saw his photo book that's left on the table on the side he sat on. She furrows her face.
"Hey! Wait up! You left something behind here!" She said as she grabs on itm she stood up and walks towards his direction.
..
She walks out from the diner. Sakurai waits for her outside of it, he looks at her direction, "Why does women always takes a long time to even get out from the shop?" He asked her. She furrowed her face when she pushed the book she have in her hand against his chest, "You left this behind!" Mikayla said to him. He holds on the book against his chest before she let it go, "Why thank you. How can I ever repay you?" he asked her when he chuckles at the same time. She rolls his eyes, "Ugh! Let's just get out from here! I don't want Veronica to be sad when her prince charming, Sakurai Sho is still not when she came back to see him wearing diapers in the house!" She said, walking away from there. He looks at her sharply, "Hey! Who wears diapers at home?! I'm sure it's you not me!" He said as he catches up with her. Mikayla chuckles as she reaches the corner to go to the elevator to get to the ground floor from the second floor.
There were quite a lot of people waiting to get inside the elevator and after a while waiting, the elevator reaches to their floor. They wanted to get inside but before they could steps inside, Mikayla heard a voice that she knew she'd heard before. She looks at their direction when she saw Veronica walks out with another man that wraps his arms around her waist and kissed her lips as they steps out from the elevator. They walked away towards the other direction while they were laughing and talking to each other. Veronica looks at the man's direction, "Oh, don't worry. I'm sure he won't find out about our date today," she said as she chuckles with that man.
Mikayla was startled to see Veronica with another man. The elevator door in front of her closed up, she looks to her side when she saw Sakurai's face expression changed from excited to get back home to I don't even want to know that the hell is going on anymore. He furrowed his face.
"I've had it," he said sharply. He threw the photo book in his hand to the dustbin close to him before he turned around and walked away from there. He walks towards the stairs direction with a furiously expression across his face. Mikayla looked at the photo book in the dustbin that is empty. She looks at his direction again, "Sho!" she called for him but he completely ignored her. She looks at the photo book again before she grabs on it, she took out a tissue paper and wiped a slight stain on it and she chased him that walked away from her.
"Sho!" She called for him again.
He heard her but he was so angry, he didn't even bother to turn around and look at her.
..
Mikayla follows him back to his own house, not the house he rented to live with Veronica. She looks at his direction as she felt slightly worried to be there. It was already at night and the road was a little quiet and she's afraid if anybody would come and ambushed then, or just her from behind.... she blinks her eyes, still holding the book in her hand....
"Are you sure about coming back here, Sho... Nobody had live in the house for quite sometime.... Aren't you worried....." She said as they were walking towards his house in the third floor of the building,, but before could finished her sentence, Sakurai cuts her off, "I still come here when I need sometime on my own," he said. "Oh," she said. Mikayla looks at his direction as the two of them stops in front of his house door. He took out the key and opened the door. He gets inside the house and Mikayla still stood there outside the open door. He turns around and look at her outside the house ... He raised his eyebrows up, "So, are you going to come in or you want to go back home on your own?" he asked her. Mikayla was shocked with what he said. "Uh, im definitely not going back alone," she said as she rushed inside the house and closed the door.
..
Inside his house, she looks around at the place that's still quite nearly arranged. She walks towards the couch, she puts the photo book in her hand on the table in the living room hall, "I put the photo book here in the table," I said to him. He raise his eyebrow, he turns around and look at her slightly, "I don't want that photo book. I thought I already threw it away. Why is it still here anyway?" he asked her. He walks towards the living room, he grabs a lighter along the way, he looks at the photo book, he grabs on it as he lights up the lighter in his hand. He really wants to burn the book. Mikayla looks at his direction. She stood up and rushed towards his direction. "Sho! Don't!" She said as she grabs on his hand. He grumbled and still tries to take the book away from him.
"Just let it go, Mikayla !" he said to her. He felt his pulse increased high. Mikayla grunts as she tries to fight against his strength that doesn't want her to take the book away from him. "Don't do it, Sho! I know you still love her!" she said to him. He grunts, "Love?! She went out and kiss somebody else behind my back and that's what you call love ?!" he said furiously. "Let me burn this book with those dumbass memories I ever had with her in it!" He said. Mikayla still trying hard to pull the book away from him. "No! Don't" she said. She felt her heartbeat raised at the same time she was fighting with him. She knew she doesn't have the strength to fight against him, and without even thinking twice, she wraps her arms around him.
"No, Sho! Don't do it!" She said as she holds him close to her. Sho fell silent for a moment when he felt her warm body wrapped against his. He felt his heart that was uneasy before starts to beat unevenly suddenly.... He inhaled a deep breath, "Mikayla..." he said....
She's still holding him tightly even though he isn't fighting back with her. She hurried her face on his chest...
"Please don't do it, Sho.... You know that everybody makes mistakes. Sometimes desire can take control with people's life... I'm sure she still loves you," she said.... Sakurai was slightly startled at first but slowly. He release his hand from holding the photo book, he inhaled a deep breath, "Mikayla .." he said her name again. She heard him calls for her name, she slowly parted from her embraced to his body, he looks at her before he touches in her chin. "Mikayla," he said her name again. She looks at his direction, "Sho...," She said his name.... He leaned close to her before she felt lips gebrlt touches against her. She was confused at first, she felt his lips gently moves against hers, his touches behind her back, he gently caresses his hand on her neck. She inhaled a deep breath before she returned his kiss..
