Shizu was running out of breath. Yeah she decided to come and inform Kira. No matter how ugly their ending was, he was a good boyfriend to her for a good 2 year. She could not ignore the fact that a little part of her still cared for him.
Kuran and Moreno were all smiley as they saw Shizu.
"OH SHIZU CHAN, YOU'RE HERE?" Kuran deliberately spoke in a loud voice. Too loud that a good amount of people could hear him in that busy venue.
Upon hearing Kuran, Kira slowly removed the magazine that covered his face and brought himself to sit.
His eyes softened as he saw Shizu. Then he realized Shizu was panting, unable to speak as she tried to catch her breath.
He was feeling grateful to Kuran for waking him up, but that trouble maker was too loud, he attracted too many attention- people were curious about the two ex-lovers.
"The costumes are well delivered." Seeing her all sweating, he reached for a tissue box next to the couch but Shizu extended her hand to give a pack of chocolate biscuit.
"The cookies.. peanut. This..... is chocolate..." Gaping for air, she was fanning herself with her hand.
The amount of unfriendly eyes gazing at her were increasing. What did this crazy girl even say? She can't even talk properly cause she's desperate.
To most people, she sounded gibberish but Kira immediately understood what she meant.
Did you come here running because you were worried about my allergy? There was a warm feeling in his chest. Did he still have the right to ask her if she was okay?
He wanted to tell her to have a seat and grab a drink for her.
But Kira could feel the curious eyes that were studying them. If only Kuran didn't yell and draw this many attention.
They would hurt her again... Because of him.
"I will talk to the RHK crew."
"They are running out of cookies. You will have to go on standby in a bit. Kira please, just accept this."
Kira was as stiff as a stone. He said nothing and just stared at Shizu helplessly.
No, Shizu please.. Just walk away..
Kuran and Moreno were biting their towels in frustration. JUST ACCEPT THE COOKIES, WE WORKED HARD FOR YOU AND YOU FAILED NOW THE PRINCESS IS HERE, IT IS BASICALLY GOD SENT BUDDHA SENT JESUS SENT AGHBZUHDZKOZJG AREN'T YOU HOLDING A TISSUE!? SHE'S SWEATING JUST GIVE IT TO HER ALREADY AGHDZGFGDFG
But those were only their inner frustration, the twins said nothing. There were some steps that had to be taken personally by Kira.
Shizu reached out, hoping to give the biscuits to Kira but the 2 RHK girls who were in charge of the food informed the RHK security about Shizu, hence the big muscled men rushed to Kira Atsui and barricaded her.
She took a step back and stared at the big muscled men, they looked really hostile towards her.
Mr. Shigeoka had warned the security about the rumor that was going on and told the security to be careful. He was really worried that the rumors about Kira and Shizu would ruin Cheerful Youth.
Kira's hands started shaking and cold sweat started to form on his temple. Frustration and suffocation pierced his chest. Ah this feeling.. This awful feeling that can only be relieved by alcohol or orgasms.
Kira squeezed the tissue in his palm, his mouth went dry.
Alcohol... He could not drink alcohol as he was still in the middle of work. He was thirsty.
He could feel this lower head of his became demanding, it offered solution to think on behalf of him. A quick one would be enough, as long as he could release some stress and get his upper head to think properly.
Kira said nothing. He was looking at Shizu with hungry eyes.
Can I have you now?
Natsu the manager, immediately approached Shizu and snatched the biscuit. He could sense the symptom from Kira's upcoming episode.
He called the RHK crew and replaced the peanut cookies with the chocolate one.
Natsu's voice hit some sense to his head. Kira diverted his gaze from Shizu and sucked his lips in.
"How desperate."
"Shameless."
People's remark was the background sound to that short spectacle.
The security didn't budge. As if they were refusing to leave until Shizu was 100 meters away from Kira Atsui.
The air around Lee Changhyuk changed. His blood was boiling. He regretted keeping some distance from the milk girl. A lot of people were standing in his way and just watched as Kira Atsui humiliated the milk girl. He was walking towards the security men.
"Excuse me." He coldly told people to move from his way.
Kira Atsui was unforgivable. This man just bragged that he could protect Le Sucre in the name of the milk girl, but he just did exactly the opposite.
Meanwhile, Shizu caught a glimpse of Kira in between those body builders. Their eyes met.
Kira nodded his head to Shizu and smiled apologetically as a signal that he got her message. He would not eat the peanut cookies.
Gradually, people started to leave. The two former lovers were no longer the center of attention as the people got back to work.
Mission accomplished! Kira would not pass out from the allergy! The corners of her lips curled up as she returned Kira's smile.
Lee Changhyuk stopped his step and put an end to the train of thoughts as soon as he saw her smile.
Milk girl, aren't you upset?
"Did you hear Ms. Katagiri from Le Sucre is giving the RHK crew a hard time because he wanted to give some cookies to Kira Atsui?"
"I heard she is still chasing Kira Atsui."
The world around Lee Changhyuk stopped.
"Oh there's Lee Yuki! Yuki-kun, do you think it's a good idea for Ms. Katagiri to continue working with Kira Atsui? They used to date, she can't be proffessional." A RHK girl was all smiley and gossipy as she finally had a chance to talk to Lee Yuki.
A lot of girls were very interested in Lee Yuki but he was always next to Shizu, so it was impossible to badmouth Shizu without her knowing. They didn't want to confront Shizu head on cause it wouldn't leave a good impression in front of Lee Yuki, would it?
Lee Yuki was very friendly to everyone but he always kept some distance from other girls.
Well it was understandable, as a Superstar, Lee Changhyuk was used to distance himself from girls to avoid unnecessary rumors.
"Yeah just because the Yamada Twins once told all of us to treat her well! That's why she thinks she still has a chance."
"I heard she wanted to work here cause she knew Kira Atsui was here. She doesn't have any qualification to work in the fashion industry."
