Chapter 75: Unperfect Timing

2086 Words
Saki likes her, which comes as no surprise. Well, it's self-evident, but I don't believe it's the real deal between them. It's unusual for a buddy of the other gender to be willing to risk their safety for a man who is simply a friend. "Even if she is still alive, I believe it is too late for us. Tori is my girl, and we already have one daughter. Saki develops a genuine affection for my brother. Looking at her and enjoying her beauty convinces me that you may admire someone without telling them and simply be content with their presence in quiet, "he stated. Then he's a hit with the ladies. What a nave boy he is. He has no idea that he is popular with girls. "In the past, I've made a lot of bad decisions. Is it true that I made a wrong decision, or does fate just keep handing me bad luck? I recall Watanabe saying something to me before. He stated that I will constantly be pursued by misfortune, and that anyone who is involved with me will be pursued by disaster as well. Perhaps he is correct. My wife, brother, daughter, and friend are all leaving in the same month, which is far too coincidental. You should take a step back and avoid approaching me. If you continue to be friendly to me, disaster will pursue you "he stated He's attempting to warn me about the potential implications of continuing to communicate with him. "I'm not going to stop talking to you," I declared. "Are you not afraid?" he inquired. I've never had a fear in my heart in my entire life. I'm not afraid of losing. Fighting does not frighten me at all. All I've learned in a hundred years is how to be bold and avoid fear. When I met this man, I felt terror for the first time. When he was on the verge of death, he helped me feel what it's like to be afraid. I was afraid he would die. "I'm not afraid," I declared. "What are you going to do if misfortune follows you?" he wondered. "Then let's get a taste of misfortune, but at least we're together," I added with a smile. When he hears the words I speak, he just grins. "That's stupid," he remarked, "you're lying, right? You're a funny girl." I am not exaggerating. If such is the fate that awaits us, I will gladly accept it if it is the consequence of being with him. "I'm not lying; I'm serious," I said. "Why do you think I'm lying?" I inquired. "Well, I've never met somebody who is willing to face adversity in order to be with the person they want to be with. I have the idea that if your love is pure, all you want is for the person you care about to have a nice life, even if he or she is far away. I believe it is preferable than to keep that person in you, since you will both suffer and share the fate of disaster "he stated. "I believe it is worse to leave that person to suffer alone while the other one lives in peace. It shouldn't always be a happy place. Bitterness is a flavor that enhances the beauty and vibrancy of life. It provides a sense of equilibrium and makes life more fascinating "I stated. He said, "I like your mindset." I merely laughed and inquired "Do you? That's something I'll take as a complement. Thank you very much "I stated. I hope you believe everything I said was real and that everything I said was sincere. "That'll do it for today," I declared. We still have work to complete tomorrow. He'll most likely need some rest today. He said, "Let's meet each other tomorrow." I said, "Of course we'll see each other because we're in the same house." I gaze at him in the eyes, and he returns the stare. Before letting go, we hug each other very tightly. He expressed his gratitude by saying, "Thank you for tonight." "I should be thanking you, not the other way around. In any case, you're welcome." I stated. I wave goodbye to him as I close the door to his room. Before closing the door entirely, I take one more look at his smile. When I close the door, I put my hand against my chest and notice that my heart is racing. This is, I suppose, what they called love. I fell in love with this man because, even though he is in the dark, he has a light within him that allows me to cherish and adore him. This is a peculiar sensation. I felt like I got a little closer to him tonight, and I finally got to know a little bit about him. I'll get to know you better. I return to my room, and the events of the previous hours continue to play in my mind. This is going to drive me insane! I recall the way he embraced me. Does this imply that he likes me as well? That is a really foolish thought. That way of thinking is wrong. He recently lost his wife, so I'll have to wait for him to recover. There's no reason to hurry. I want him to truly love me without covertly adoring someone else. He's only hugging me like that because he's in desperate need of someone to lean on. I tend to overreact to situations, but I suppose that's for the best. Tomorrow will be a new day, and I'll see him once more. I'm hoping it won't be awkward tomorrow, and that we'll be able to get closer. The morning arrived, and I sensed that I had awoken on the correct side of the bed. I open the window and take a deep breath of fresh air. I had no idea that waking up in love was such a wonderful experience and sensation. In the bathroom, I wash my face and double-check that it is clean. In front of the mirror, I comb my hair. I want to make sure that when I leave this room, I look good so that when Takahashi comes out of his room, he sees me as enticing. I believe I now appear to be in decent form, and everything appears to be in place. Is it okay for me to go outside right now? I'm so frightened that I keep checking myself in the mirror. I believe I am good looking now and I will be fine when I go outside! This is something I can handle! When I opened the door, I noticed Bara standing in front of my door, prepared to knock. "Hello, Bara," I said, "Good morning." It's too early for her to come in and give me updates. She replied, "Hey, good morning, Katsumi." She stares at me and then begins to smirk at me, as if she's teasing me. "You have a new look today!" She added, "Your hair is combed quite early in the morning, and it appears that you prepare yourself to look good thus early." So that simply means that my preparation is obvious. Well, I hope I still look decent when I see Takahashi, especially because Bara is here and we may end up conversing for a few minutes or an hour. "Thank you, Bara," I replied. "Do you have someone you like already?" she inquired, tapping my shoulder. "Why are you inquiring whether I have a crush on someone?" I inquired. Don't tell me she's already noticed my fondness for Takahashi. This is a disaster! If she asks if I like Takahashi, I should say no. "Nothing in particular, I just assumed you liked someone because you are blooming today, which is a good sign. For real, you look really lovely today! ", she stated "I don't have time for love," I explained. She just laughed at me and pushed me back into my room. "Hey, why are you pushing on me?" I inquired. "I'm going to tell you something, and it's a secret, so keep quiet," she added. I return to my room, and she shuts the door behind me. "Okay, now that we're inside and no one can hear us, you may tell me what your secret is. Tell it like it is. " I said I'm hoping that this chat will be brief enough that I won't need to fix my face in order to look presentable when I step outdoors. I'm sitting on my bed, and she's sitting next to me. She inhales deeply and looks at me. She inquired, "Tell me what you think about Takahashi?" Is she inquiring about my feelings towards Takahashi? "Are you trying to figure out if I like him?" I inquired. "Well, I don't think you like him," she says after a brief pause, "but it's also nice if you will respond that just to be sure." It is necessary for me to deny it. Takahashi might shun me if Bara tells him I like him, so I have to deny it. "I don't like him. Well, he is my subordinate and he is my gold knight, but we are good friends, "I added. She appeared pleased with my response. She smiled as she held my hand and said "That makes me extremely pleased. Now tell me about your impressions of him as a person. Tell me about his positive qualities, or any attributes or attitude that you admire in him "she stated There are so many things I admire about him that I won't be able to tell you about them all. "He is kind and, to be honest, he cares a lot. He also enjoys assisting others, and he is a pure and innocent man who strives to improve. He's also tough because no matter how difficult life gets for him, he always finds a way to keep going and face the next day. He's also the type of person who is easy to get along with. He's a natural socializer "I stated. She spreads her arms out and lies down on my bed. She added, "I'm glad you think that way about him." "What do you mean?" I inquired. Well, I'm sure everybody she will ask in this home will give her the same answer. All of the things I said are accurate, and they are based on my observations of Takahashi's treatment to me and others. "I'm glad you think he's a decent person with a lot of good traits," she expressed her delight. Takahashi has a lot of positive traits, which is true, but I don't see why she should be so delighted just because I appreciate a man who isn't related to her. "What makes you happy about it?" I inquired. She's grinning a lot, which makes me question why she's smiling so much. She takes a seat on the bed and stares at me. She has her hands on my shoulders. "Bara, you're being strange," I said. When I stated it, she moved her hands away from me. "Please accept my apologies. I'm just overjoyed at the moment. Don't worry, I'll tell you why it's happening right now "she stated She will explain why she is overjoyed and why she is acting in this manner. Does this imply that there is a deeper and more important cause for her behavior? I said, "Hurry up because I'm listening." "Well, I'm glad you don't like him because I don't want you to," she explained. Is it true that she doesn't want me to like Takahashi? Why did she agree that Takahashi was a good man with a lot of good qualities? "I don't want us to fight just because there's a man between us. I don't want our cousin relationship to be ruined because of a man. I'm glad you think of him that way, because he's exactly like that to me. I'm relieved that the way I perceive him matches the way other people see him. It gives me the impression that my feelings for him are valid. I'm going to tell you something that is completely unexpected! Takahashi appears to be a favorite of mine! I desperately want to be with him, and I believe I want to pursue a relationship with him, but don't worry, I'll wait for him to be ready again. I'm dead serious about him. I really like him "she stated.
