Aimie's pov
"Mom, is onii-chan alright? He seems like he have seen a ghost.", I asked.
"Just leave him alone for a while, he just need to rest.", mom replied.
"Okay! I'm going then, bye!", Me.
"Tell to your class adviser that he wouldn't come for today.", Mom.
"Okay, mom, see you later.", Me.
"Come home early, sweety.", Mom.
"I will.", Me.
._-*-_.
"Uhm... Aimie? Uhm... May I ask you something?", Yume-chan with something on her hands.
"Sure, what is it, yume-chan?", I asked.
"Uhm, well, I'm just wondering why arth didn't came? I-i thought he's with you today but... I guess, he don't want to see me yet after that I did to him before. I want to give this to him as a special present. I want to ask for forgiveness though.", she explained. She's really cute when she says sorry.
"Don't worry, yume-chan. I know what my brother thinking but I know he have forgiven you. I'll give this to him when I got home.", I smiled.
"Thanks, aimie.", Yume-chan smiled too.
She's kinda cute. That day, she was yelling but crying at the same time, it's my first to see her like that. And it's like 'i'm always ready to smile even if it hurts' situation. They say she looks like a bad bitch but the truth is, she's really a softly one.
._-*-_.
I'm just wondering, after what happened yesterday with bro. He came to our house bathed in sweat, I know he came from yume's place, I told him so. He seems like he was seen scary creature or something scarier and he was trembling. He went to me and hugged me too tight. I asked him why but he didn't tell anything.
Yume's pov
We have 2hour free time, the teachers are too busy for the graduating students of the year (and it's our batch). But before that, there will be a seniors' ball and of course, who wants to dance with me?... I knew arth hates me. I'm just gonna be a wallflower and that's too fine for me.
"Isn't that wonderful, yume Chan? Dancing under the spotlight in middle of the dancefloor. Everybody on their best dresses and gowns and dance along with their partners. (N/a: sorry for I can't think romantic lines about ball or gala) their best perfumes and colognes smelt around.", Day dreaming aimie, and her blah blah blah
Nah! She's too excited, obviously.
"Can I have you for a second?", Malory.
I want to move out from my seat. So I just ignore her.
Aimie glared at me tell that 'I should listen' look.
"Fine!", I crossed my arms and not looking at her.
"Well, I know I'm pissing you off but I want to say something. All I want to say that I'm not taking him away from you. We're just friends, can't you see? I'm so glad since that roleplay, you both guys are so happy with each other. And I want you to be the first to know, I got my fiancee. I wish we could meet together with the four of us. Double date, I guess. Uhm... Thanks for listening, bye for now, yume-chan.", Malory stated and walked away.
"Yume-chan?", Aimie.
"Yume-chan?", She called my name once again.
"Yeah, it's fine. I'm okay!", I put my hands on my pocket of my loose sweater and went out.
"I'll be back later, I just need some air.", I said.
I know and maybe just thinking like something crazy stuffs. I feel so guilty on what I've done.
._-*-_.
The next days...
Morning routine, as usual, saying good morning to my friends. Ignoring him again and again.
In that afternoon, aimie invited me to find a dress for the ball so I did come with her.
We went to a fashion shop and how glamorous I saw. It's like the dress of Belle, the roleplay. But it's more defined. It's with yellow laces and yellow gems attached. I heard someone from not too far from us.
"Hey, girls, you're here!", Malory.
"I'm looking for my dress to wear on the ball, but I can't choose which one. Hey, yume-chan, here's malor-, where did she go?", Aimie.
I was hiding on a displayed wedding dress. Then arth saw me but I just ran away and took my hand.
"Yume.", I heard him but I pulled my hand from his light grip.
"Yume, I want to speak with you, please?", He begged in his low tone and his eyes is like a kind of lonely. I want to talk to him but I can't.
"Onii-chan, I thought you couldn't come.", arth, turned to aimie.
"Sorry if i'm late, have you found your dress yet?", He asked.
"Here's malory, she might help us.", Aimie.
"Well, actually I'm the owner of this shop. I'll help you, guys, call for the other boys, they seems they haven't found something to wear yet. courtesy of me.", Malory.
"Oh my g! thanks a lot, malory!", Aimie.
"I'll call some fashion artists to help me out.", Malory.
So, they took our measurements, and do some arrangements.
"Uhm, Malory, well, thank you for that, and I'm sorry. I'm sorry for being such a bad bitch to you.", I bowed down.
"Aww... that's okay, yume, besides we're friends, right? Why don't we try to be happy just this moment, at least. Even if we part after this school year, we're on our different tracks but we still have memories in our hearts.", Malory smiled so widely.
Then we parted as I walked by from the shop. We said our goodbyes to each of us. But i feel so happy after I said my apologies to her. But how about arth? I can't speak to him yet.
