Chapter 4 : Oh-oh

Sendoh and Rukawa did not speak throughout the whole journey when they were on the train, but they enjoyed each other's presence. They went for a walk down a street together but everyone seemed to be looking at them as though they were superstars and they both uneasy.

Finally, they were able to get out of sight from their 'fans' and came to a photo-sticker' machine. Sendoh looked at the machine and then at Rukawa while Rukawa was still catching his breath after the long run (from the people). Then Sendoh asked,"Wanna take a picture? It looked cute. Come on, let's take one." After much persuasion, Rukawa finally agreed.

While they were taking the picture, there were two little boys playing beind them. They did not know that it was Sendoh and Rukawa taking the picture. When Sendoh and Rukawa were taking the last try, one of the boys who was standing near Rukawa finally noticed that it was actually Rukawa and shouted to the other boy. Sendoh was puzzled by the shouting and turned to look at the little boy who shouted but alas, the boy accidentally knocked Rukawa down and Sendoh happened to kiss Rukawa on his cheeks when he turned. Aand it all happened at the time when the picture was taken!

Rukawa was shocked when the picture was printed out and walked away without even taking a second look at the picture. Sendoh, on the other hand, found it quite amusing and actually pasted one on the machine, and another in his wallet! The two little boys there were obviously shocked at the picture and ran away beccause they thought Sendoh and Rukawa were abnormal (come on, they are just kids, how much do little boys know?).
