Vow Hino, Vow to Me

"Forgive me, Hihara-san." She paused, then added, "Kudasai." She was whimpering, the feel of her pale and frail fingers wrapping around my hand felt really cold. I could hear her whimpers turn into louds sobs and her shoulders were shaking violently. She raised her head, her eyes looking directly at mine. I fixed my gaze on her. I tried to search for heaven in her eyes, the laughter, the smile. But the only thing I could find was hell. It was as if she had been dragged down by her sins.

"Hino-san, I'm dreadfully sorry but how could I ever forgive you, you— you lied," I replied, my voice a sharp pang to her heart. I tried to forget about everything but I just couldn't. She told me Len was her bestfriend, when he's actually her husband. She made me fall for her over and over again, and the lie was just too much. I was in love, and when I thought I was going to have her… she didn't turn me down, she didn't slap me on the face or anything like that but… she.. she deceived me.

"I— My deepest apologise, Hihara-san, I was very… lonely," She said, looking once again to my eyes. I didn't avoid her gaze, I just kept staring at her. Lonely.. lonely, huh. It reminds me of…

Mayonaka no uta ga sakenda "Boku hontou wa hitori ga kirai da daikirai da"

The midnight song I cried out went "In reality, I don't like being alone... I truly hate it"

omotai jiyuu wo hikizutte aruiteta
wakare ga kuru tabi sora ga toozakatte yuku you ni mieta

I've walked dragging a weighty freedom along, each time separation would come, it seemed as though the sky would sink back.

Mayonaka no uta wa sakebu yo "Boku hontou wa boku hontou wa sabishikatta"

The midnight song I cry out goes "In reality, I... in reality, I... was very lonely"

"Do you.. Actually love him?" I asked.

"Tsukimori? I love him so much I couldn't explain it," She said. More tears started to flow out of her eyes, gathering themselves at her chin, forming a giant tear drop as it descended down to the ground, and broke apart.

"Then why?"

"I told you already. I was lonely, he was very busy with his work and all. I need someone to love me, care for me."

"But, you never know. He might be longingly for you eventhough he's working. You don't know how much he actually misses you right? It's the same. You thought you were the only one suffering, but that's not the truth," I symphatised her, but deep inside, somehow I wanted to punch her on the face for cheating on her own husband.

"I—" Hino opened her mouth, tried to speak but no words came out.

"I'm sure he missed you. But with you cheating on him, wouldn't that add more wounds, wouldn't that make the pain even more unbearable?" I asked again, trying my best not to hurt her feelings.

"That's—That's partially true," she replied, her head bowed low.

"Partially true? How so?" I inquired, looking confused. I should admit that I was pretty confident with my words.

"Len-kun might or might not miss me," she said again, guilt enveloped her words.

"He was crying when he met you. If he didn't care at all, why would he even bother meeting you?"

"He—He wanted a divorce!" Her voice raised in consternation but I tried my best to calm down.

"He was testing you. He wanted to know if you still wanted him. Isn't it common sense? If you really loved him, wouldn't you go chase him? If you don't, why bother? He would mean nothing to you, am I not right?" I shot back at her, hoping that she will realise her own doings.

She paused for a little while, her face now facing mine, and her jaw dropped slightly. "You're… right.. I guess."

Without thinking twice, I grabbed her vulnerable wrists tightly and dragged her with me.

"Hihara-san, where are we going?" she asked, quickening her steps as she tried to keep up her pace with me.

"Somewhere," I said, turning to look at her, "Somewhere we could spend the night, but just this one night." I could feel her wrists relaxed slightly as soon as the words escaped my mouth.

"Really?" the tears that had once stained her cheek immediately dried up. Her lips curved into a little smile.

I stopped in my tracks and turned around, facing her. "But promise me, promise me. Go back to Tsukimori-kun, and apologise, after this of course," I said as my hands began to move towards her face, cupping it carefully, afraid that it would break with one wrong move.

"Arigatou, Hihara-san! Ari—" her sentences was cut when I smashed my lips on hers, for a quick kiss.

I pulled away and said, "Promise me. Just promise me. Vow to me."

"Hai, I will,"and with that, she smiled. It was the best smile I had ever seen. It doesn't look like it's fake but whatever happens… whatever happens.. I'll still love her, and this is for her own good.

"Let's go, to the Danube, where we could gaze at the night stars," I said and dragged her along with me. "Next time I see you, I want you to be with Tsukimori."

taiyou no mabushisa ni kakikesarete mo
saa hata wo furou ka kata wo kumou ka tada utaou ka doredemo ii yo
wakeaeru kimi ga iru ka inai ka dakeda yo

Even if it is erased by the blazing sun
Come on, you can always either wave a flag, go on each other's shoulders or just sing something
It's just a matter of whether there's someone to share it with or not
