Sun light poured in the window through the lace curtain. Mai's eye's fluttered open. Where was she? Suddenly she felt a pain in her leg. The events of last night came flooding back to her and she groaned. Her eyes opened again and focused on her mother's picture. "Morning, Mom." She said groggily. Her eye caught sight of something white sitting next to the picture. Picking it up she found that it was a letter. It was addressed to her. As she read it her eyes widened.
Dear Mai,
The contents of this letter will more than likely come as a shock. After all, I have often made the mistake of not allowing any of my feeling to show. Especially the feeling that I have in my heart for you. Even if you do not return my feelings, I love you enough to want nothing more than to have you smile.
I know I have often hurt you with comments on your mental capabilities as well as other things. I fear such comments may have turned you away from me. I love you.
You light up the world around you with your smile. Sometimes I wonder how you feel about me. Am I just Naru? Your arrogant boss, or, perhaps, am I something more? Do those glances you send at me from under your eyelashes mean something? When you think of me, if you do think of me, what are the thoughts that are in your head.
I sometimes wonder, what our relationship would be like if we had meet under different circumstances. Would I behave differently, perhaps in not hiding my feelings all the time? Would we be together? I cannot find the answer to these questions.
Seeing your unconscious form near that pond nearly killed me. I was terrified that I would never see you move again. Scared that, those deep brown eyes that I love so much would never open again. How would I be able to live, without the laughter and joy that you brought to my life? How could I go on without you?
I never thought that I would come so close to losing you. Even now, the future is so uncertain and I feel a hopelessness creeping over me. How can I protect you? I must protect you some how. I know that without you my heart would surely break.
Shakespeare must have known what you would be like when he penned the lines of the 18Th sonnet. "Shall I Compare Thee To A Summer's Day?" Shall I? In truth, it suits you well, to be described as beautiful.
Your cheerfulness, despite what you've been through is astounding. I wish I could make it so the world could never hurt you ever again. I would go to the ends of the earth just to see you smile. You're the only thing that truly has meaning.
Is it true, that love is blind? Could there then, be a possibility that you might return these affections? That, perhaps, you might love me, as I love you? I hope this is so.
I must conclude this letter, though I could write pages more.
With Love (How wonderful it feels to pen the word!),
Shibuya Kazuya
Now you know how Naru feels,
Lin
Mai sat there in shock for a moment. Then got dressed.
Meanwhile….
Naru was still blissfully unaware that Mai had the letter he had written. He wondered if she was up yet. Lin sat typing at the computer. The sound of a knock at the door caused Naru to turn around. There stood Mai.
"Hey, Naru. Can I talk to you for a moment. Without Lin." She seemed uncertain of her words.
Lin looked up. This was going to be the best day ever. Even if they both desided to kill him, it would be worth it. He had set up the camera already. And he had hooked it up to the big TV in the den of the house. Every one was there waiting to see what would happen. Lin left before Naru could say any thing.
"Naru, do you know any thing about this?" Mai asked, handing him the letter that she had had clinched in her hand. As Naru read over it, his eyes widend and he blushed ever so slightly. At the sight of Lin's heavy, but neat hand writing, Naru began to think of all the things he would do to him. Mai's soft voice interrupted his thoughts.
"Because if you do, And it's not some sort of cruel joke. Then, I guess I should tell you something."
Naru's heart was stuck in his throat. Did she love him? He wanted to know. He barely recognized his own voice. "Do- Do you care about me at all?" his voice was barely above a whisper, but Mai heard it. She took his hands and wrapped his arms around her waist. "Yes. I love you. You may be Naru, but you're my Naru. My Narcsisst. And I love you."
Naru smiled softly at Mai. She stood up on her tiptoes to kiss him. In the den, everyone cheered as their lips met.
Later….
Mai and Naru walked into the den to a party. "MAI AND NARU 4EVER!!!" was scrawled on banners that hung from the ceiling. Lin and Bou-san sat laughing on the couch. Suddenly the TV came on. "Yes. I love you. You may be Naru, but you're my Naru. My Narcsisst. And I love you." Mai's scream was heard in Hong Kong and Naru went into a fury and refused to talk to Lin for three days. But in the end, Naru and Mai forgave the two conspirators. After all, though it embarrassed them at first, the tape became a treasure to the two of them, and thanks to the conspirators, they were together and in love.
