"Who here is called Amanda Yumare-Kawarii?"
Ignoring the mystery man's question, all the girls started screaming. Then they all ran towards him.
Some girls, trying to hug him, almost knocked him to the ground. Luckily, this man seemed to be strong enough to handle this bunch of crazy girls.
And then, they started crying and talking about how much they were fans, they took a thousand pictures, recorded videos, asked for autographs. He was pretty understandable, to be honest. He took pictures, signed autographs, and recorded videos, lots of videos.
Meanwhile, Ella and I watched the whole scene with a look of contempt. Some boys had left the place and others remained there, curious to know what this was going to lead to.
"Hey!" Ella caught my attention, and I looked at her right away "He spoke your name..."
"It's true," I said "But so what? It must be a mistake or something. I don't know..."
Before they ask me, yes, I heard him speak my name. The problem was, I didn't want to go there and talk to him. He's famous, he has A LOT of fans, he's beuty and blah blah. And I'm just an ordinary human, nothing special. That would cause me a lot of problems, other than I DON'T WANT to marry a guy I don't know.
"Hmm... Why don't you go there and talk to him? You say it was a mistake and that's it! Problem solved."
"I don't want it, Ella. It's full of people there and it bothers me" I say, bothered by the whole situation
Ella keeps insisting that I go see the singer soon, but I don't want to. So, I turn to enter the building. I take a few steps and when I'm about to enter, I hear him:
"You there! Girl with the bracelet!" he yells, aiming to get my attention.
I freeze in place. 'Shit, he noticed me.' I don't know what to do. Should I turn around and go there? Should I continue my journey? I DO NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO.
"Go on Nanda! Stop the frills." Ella says
I, giving in to the pressure, end up heading towards that pop star, who was surrounded by girls. And that's something I don't understand. You know, he's famous, rich, handsome, apparently talented... So why would he have to bother throwing a bracelet, wait for a random girl to pick him up, and then choose to marry her? Dude, he's a celebrity. Just snap your finger and a thousand girls appear at his feet. So why did he do it? I do not understand.
My friend was looking at me mischievously, a mocking smile on her face. She must have been amused to see me uncomfortable like this.
I take more steps towards that man. Some girls standing in front of him give me space to get to him. Walking some more, I finally stop in front of the pop star.
Some girls looked at the scene with disgust, others with envy. Anyway, everyone there remained silent, curious to know what would happen.
"I think this is a mistake... Look, I was just coming to school when this one fell on my head" I say, lifting my right arm, where the bracelet has caught
He didn't say anything, just looked at me seriously. He was looking me up and down, he was analyzing me. My hair is straight and black, my skin is naturally tanned (but lighter than Ella's), my eyes are amber and my body is small, common to a 15-year-old girl. That guy wouldn't be disgusting to touch a kid right?
"Um..." he asked me to look and analyze his surroundings.
The same girls were watching us. Some with their cameras on.
"We'd better go somewhere more private..."
He takes a kind of weird triangle and presses a red button in the middle of it. Then, a cyan-blue circle with some strange symbols appears surrounding us. Then a glare dominates my vision, turning everything white.
I feel a little dizzy with all that. I feel my vision getting blurry and I feel an overwhelming urge to pass out. But then, before I lose consciousness, my vision flashes, and I stop in a room. A room fit for a princess. The place had some Victorian tendencies.
"This room... Reminds you of something?" he had his back to me, but there was something in his voice. Hope?
I look at the room around me, it had a huge bed, antique furniture, and windows were covered with curtains. I feel something in my chest, a feeling of familiarity overwhelms me. However, I lie, saying I don't feel anything. I just wanted that man to leave me alone.
"I see. Just a question, you know who I am, right?"
"Yes. You are singer Levi Starfire, right?"
"Yeah…" he turns around, now looking me in the eye.
I feel my heart race. Having that tall, handsome, talented man looking at me shapely stirred my insides. But I had to be rational, even though I didn't have that ability. I lower my gaze and blush slightly.
"Look, Mr. Levi... I'm only 15, I'm too young to marry you... Not to mention there are a lot of more mature and prettier girls who would certainly want to be with you" I say, trying to argue
"Just call me Levi. And, look, you took the bracelet. Or rather, he went to you..."
"What do you mean" I stand up and look him in the eye with a confused expression
"I mean you were chosen to marry me. This bracelet is proof of that."
I still do not understand. What does all this mean? What the fuck does this bracelet have to do with me? I stare at the bracelet, still confused by all this. I'm just a girl, I haven't even finished high school yet. How will my parents react to this? And my friends, how will they feel when they know that their friend is getting married when they are only 15 years old?
"You told me you're only 15, right?"
"Yes... I'm very young, besides I haven't even finished high school yet"
"I see. I've been researching your city. You live in Tokyo and, as you say, you're only 15. Right?"
"Yeah…" where does he want to go?
"And according to my research, you are still a minor in Tokyo, a child, so to speak"
"Thanks for understanding that" I reply with sarcasm and anger at the same time "But then where do you want to go with all this?"
"I'll wait for you to come of age. You still don't remember anything right? But I believe you'll remember in time. By the time you turn 18, you'll have fallen in love with me..." he makes an unbearable face presumptuous.
"Excuse the ignorance, what the fuck are you talking about? Falling in love with you? Are you crazy? Look, I know you're famous and blah blah blah, but that doesn't mean a thing. I'm not even your fan for starters. And remember? Remember what? That I'll have to marry you against my will? Seriously..."
"That won't be a problem. As I said, you'll remember everything pretty soon. And as for you falling in love with me, that won't be a problem. I'll make you love me, effortlessly."
"And what are you going to do? Are you going to kidnap me for a year and make me have Stockholm Syndrome?"
"No, I won't have to do anything. You'll find it was made for me. Until then, I can wait" he takes something from the pocket of his suit "Here, use this to get back to Earth. But don't think it will go away. get rid of me, I'll come back tomorrow to see how you are"
The thing Levi took from his pocket was the same button he pressed to teleport us to this mysterious room. He put the device in my hands and went to bed, lie down. Then he started staring at the ceiling.
That man wouldn't give up on me so easily. At the very least, he would wait for me to grow up and mature, but that was still unsettling, at least for me.
I stare at him on the bed, he has one knee up and hands on his head, relaxing and thinking about something. He was really cute. How old must he be? I deduct a maximum of 30. OH THAT AGONY. Just thinking about the age difference makes me paranoid. I better get going, God knows what that guy will do to me if I stay there too long.
I pressed the button for that weird triangle. The same flash appeared, leaving my vision all white. I felt the same dizziness and, before I passed out, my dizziness disappeared and I went back to the same place I was before that crazy person teleported me to that strange room.
