[Life has been terrible on me.]
I stopped and looked up at the clear night sky in the middle of busy sidewalk where everyone is either getting home or just has begun to go to their work at this time of night.
No one really bother to bump into me, or rather they just don't really care about the people who suddenly stopped, since the sidewalk has enough space to walk past into me.
Glistening and blinking stars like lightbulbs glanced upon me as I stared back into them.
[Is this life worth it? Should I be more happy? What would happen if I would just get back to my hometown, to my parents, and see how terrible woman I've grown up in this city?]
[Would they regret raising a trash like me...?]
Cloud of thoughts about getting home and the regrets of my consequences flooded into my mind as I looked lost in thought in the side walk, looking for a hint or maybe, an answer to those questions.
Couple past of seconds has passed, but it felt like it's so long that it feels I'm trapped to endless loop because of my depressive thoughts, I began to look forward and walk away from the busy side walk.
I returned to my apartment or what just I call "home". A place of me living here.
Sleeping, eating, taking a bath or sometimes just a shower, and just browsing to the second hand laptop in the internet, this LK (living room and kitchen with a toilet and bathtub installed) apartment has witnessed the same old routine of mine.
If it got a mind of it's own, it may be bored by now.
Like always, took a bath and just eat the cup noodles that I've just bought in the convenience store on the way home, and after I ate it, I would go to bed with my smartphone playing a random video of something or just cats playing around just to fall asleep.
Next day will be just another boring day just like this.
Or so I thought...
---------------------------
"You're Sei-chan, right?"
The beautifully high pitched voice called my name.
Normally, I would just ignore the call out since in here, everytime someone has called out to you, it's either your old peer from the university that you've gone too that is in pinched in the mixer and needed one person to fill up or the salesman/lady that is ready for their repeated words of their lies.
But this time, it's different. Why? She called my nickname that my parents used to call me long time ago.
They are maybe, from my parents' friends who came into this city and just happen to see me going home from my boring job.
And this sucks...
Curiously, I turn my head to where that cutely voice come from and it's on my back. I noticed she grabbed me in my lame jacket, slightly lifting it with her nimble fingers.
Her sweet mature perfume has been carried away by the wind up caught into my nose as it lingers for a bit and soon disperse into air again.
"You're Sei-chan... right?"
She repeated her words, but the unsureness is visible from her pretty looking face.
I quite angle my head for a bit since she is a bit taller, she is a model perhaps? More importantly, she is from someone I don't know.
I don't remember my parents friending a such a mature lady and not to mention, her face can be compete with the actresses from the dramas. Though, I don't even care about dramas, I am not even watching television nor had enough money to buy one. I would rather buy myself a beer than spend it to a television.
Back to reality, I cleared my throat as my raspy voice let out in a.... weird way.
"W-Who.."
[Cough... cough... Gack... agh... urgh..]
Yep, it's been a while I spoke to someone with a purpose in mind that I don't even remember to speak and my saliva got dried up to my mouth, causing me to intensely cough. How embarrassing.
"A-Are you okay?"
"Haah.. Haah... Yeah... I-I'm okay.. Just caught off guard for a bit."
She might think I am a weirdo by now.
As my breath began to regulate normally again, I took a glanced again.
"Umm.. S-So... Wh-Who are you?"
She is taken by surprised by my question. Her eyes slightly widened and a bit of a gap from her seducing lips.
"You... You don't remember me?"
Her face suddenly looked glum, her expression tells that she is troubled about me not knowing her as she crossed her arms between her chest, to think about something. Her fancy clothes or rather a fancy suit crumples a bit as her arms tighten a bit.
"Umm.. maybe, if you tell me your name... I might recall you..?"
She turn to look at me again with her serious eyes.
She is really a beautiful lady, a hint of matureness that you might now think she is a secretary of the CEO of some sort of rich company...
Heh, compared to me, a failure working woman from a boring waitress job. Always getting scolded, always breaking some plates, and even getting sexual harrassment from that scum bastard manager.
For this mature looking lady, I am nothing but a trash in front of her eyes.
I'm beginning to think depressing thoughts again, aren't I?
"Sumire Kasumi. That's my name." (JP Meaning: "Violet Mist")
Still no clue who she is... even she said her name. I tried to remember, but I can't really remember any of my so-called friends throughout of my life, or maybe I am starting to forget some names now. Is this because I'm getting old?
"You are Akemi Seiko, right?" (JP Meaning: Bright; Beautiful Success)
As she continue on and said my full name. And I really hate that.
Where is the success that can be found in me other than my given name? Even my surname is opposite of my life right now.
I know that she is just saying it to confirm if she got the correct person that she's talking to. But I... I really can't help to down my head at her just to hide my pained expression that I am making right now.
A couple and awkward moments later. Good thing that the family restaurant that I'm working on is now closed since we're on the front of it and not many people is walking past us, or no people comes around at this time since the restaurant is on the alleyway.
The only lights that is illuminating above us is the flickering old street light and the same old clear night sky.
I'm sure she noticed by now that I am affected or something is wrong with me by hearing my full name out loud.
As if sensing that I am aware of it, she grabbed my hands with her slim fingers and hold it. The heat of her hands gradually entangles to my skin like a warm water that you dipped in the hot spring.
Her face suddenly closed to mine, almost like kissing, or rather, she forced herself to my personal space. Her face that is glum before and thinking about something serious, is now full of sparkles especially from her eyes.
"You are her, right?"
Not repeating my name, she addressed me in a more normal phrase that I'm comfortable with. But her face got a bit more closer again. Another inch of her lips and mine will contact from each other, so I have to gain a personal space even if it's only from my face.
"Y-Yeah... Umm... A-Also, you're too close."
When she heard that she got the right person she's been looking for, a stream of tears rolls down from her right eye as her head tilts slightly from the right side.
"Thank god... I finally.. found you..."
The tears is not a tears of sadness, but tears of joy about finding the person she's been looking for...
[Hm? Found? Me? She's been looking for me? Why? I don't even know or recall who she is yet though.]
Those questions lingers my mind, but not for too long. As if the mood is ready for something that will happen like a CGI you unlocked from playing the special route you found while playing the dating sim.
She stared at me and I slowly and nervously turn my head in the left to break free, but she wraps her arms to my body as if hugging me and not giving a chance for me to escape from her grasped again.
My instincts telling me to go away from her, but because of the mood of the atmosphere is giving and her beautiful face so close to me, I did not flinch or move.
I don't know who is she nor what is she doing, but her face, her serious sullen eyes that is drenched by her tears, and her lips that is polished by a red lipstick makes it so seducing, is slowly moving towards me, or rather she is actually locked on for my lips.
And we kissed...
Surprised, or I know what is going to happen already, I regain my reasonings and push her a little bit for her to let go, but she tightly wrapped her arms to my body, hugging me like a python that chose a delicious looking meal already and preying it right now.
Mrghh... Mrgh!! Mnn! Nghh..
I'm occupied of breaking free from this mature and beautiful lady by gently pushing her away, she took the kiss in the next level and puts her tongue in and reaches for my tongue.
Mmm...!! Slurp...slurp.. Mmm.. Ngh...
The taste of sweet and bitter of her saliva almost like she had a fancy wine earlier before meeting me, reaches to my sense of taste. I am low tolerance in alcohol, so I know I shouldn't gulp, but I can't really help it! She put her tongue in!
My face became flushed, or is it flushed already as soon as she kissed me?
I don't care anymore. The alcohol she had in has now infected me like a super virus ready to take over my immunity from my body and I felt the tremendous dizziness as she continuously licking, slurping and playing her tongue to mine.
A minute? Or more than that has passed and she finally stopped.
Fuwwaa... Haahh.. Hah... Hah...
Exhausted breaths can be heard into the quiet alleyway in front of the restaurant are the only sounds you can hear besides the cold breeze of wind.
She regain her breath quickly. She must be used to those kisses. She kissed me again not once but twice, although those are only smacks. Or is she teasing my lips and get another arousal?
No.. After those smack kisses she, she finally let me go from her hug, but as soon she let go of me. Because of my dizziness from the fluids I consumed from her, my body did not respond to me and I crashed into the ground. Good thing it is only a smooth crash or else... that will... leave... some sca...rs...
I passed out.
"Oh no.. Looks like Sei-chan passed out. Is it because of the kiss? Or the wine that I just had? Fu fu.. Oh well... Let's go to a nearby love hotel, shall we?"
-------------------------
I don't know why... But I think it's been a while I slept this long... This long!? Oh shit! I am late for work. I rose up and saw a unfamiliar ceiling. Hm? Where am I? Why I am getting a feeling I've done something bad?
"Mmmrgh.. Mmm..."
A sound that came from my side and of course, I looked... at that.. direction.. A woman! A pretty woman is sleeping with me! Now, that I feel something wrong with my body I raised the blanket and found that I am buck naked and so the woman sleeping beside me.
What the hell did happen last night? How did this happen?
