Chapter 6:

An Abberated Future and an Undying Love

 

 

Ken walked up the stone steps on Aya's former house, now Aren's. Banging loudly on the door, he inhaled the red roses again, and glancing at the note a final time, set a not-so-fake smile across his face, and banged on the door with his fist again. "Delivery! Special delivery!"

 

At the sound of silence that echoed through the house, Ken glared at the door that denied his entrance, once having a key to bang down the blasted thing, and he beat on the door continuously, his muffled shouts softened ever so softly by the flowers and the huge door. "Dammit, open the door! I know you are there! Delivery!"

 

Once the door was opened, Ken smiled, his eyes softened for the girl, for the first time in the entire few days since he returned, and he handed her the large bouquet of red roses. "Hai! It's no charge.. enjoy!" he waved, and hurried back down the steps. Jumping on his bike, he gunned the motor, and sped off into the sunset.

 

Love is for second chances!

There are never special powers, and no strings attached.

Love you forever.

-- Aya

 

It was weird, that she should be getting something now. She answered the door in a towel and a housecoat. Blinking at Hidaka Ken with roses in his hand. He shoved the boquet in her hands and hopped off and rode into the sunset.

 

She went and sat down laying the roses on the table, holding the note in her hand.

 

" Weellll..your lover boy sent you flowers ? " crooned her sister. " And a note! Oh dear."

 

"Shut up Inna.."

 

She walked into her room and got dressed. Pondering the flowers, and the note. So she had been forgiven. That only made half the heartache go away.

 

She had paced her room, biting off her nails in that waiting. She sat on her bed and brought her knees to her chest.

 

So she had him back?

 

Or did she?
