What I Want
PART ONE
A beautiful day
On a day like this, everything seems to have its extent in the bright sky. On a day like this, life is present in each little noise, each little usual object. If u take the time to watch the surrounding world, then you'll see that all those things you never seem to be aware of are of a wonderful beauty, filled with grace and harmony. And as I stand at the door of the Koneko No Sumu Ie, I can fully admire this almighty Nature as well as the elements brought by manhood. My heart if filled with joy, my mind seems to soar high in that never ending sky. I feel an intense peace spreading in my whole self, and I smile to the sun, closing my eyes because of the sharp light. I hope this moment could be eternal…
"What the…KEN!!! "
A scream that annihilates harmony. I sigh. I should have expected such an end for my daydreaming… I can hear footsteps from the flat hurrying noisily this way, and I wonder if I should get some other place to hide. Just a few seconds and Yohji-kun enters the shop through the backdoor.
"Uh? Na…nani?"
Ken-kun's voice reflects apprehension. Seems he knows he did something wrong. I turn my head to watch the scene folding in the quiet shop. I wonder what caused Yohji-kun's anger. I'm curious, but at the same time I don't want to see my friends have a fight. And even more if the reason for that fight is a ridiculous matter, which is actually most of the time…
"What does that mean????"
Yohji-kun's just waken up, it seems, although it's nearly midday. He's only wearing one of his old underpants. I must admit we had such a heat those days! I suppose he 'ran' directly to the shop, for he's barefoot. His hair is quite messed up, as if he had spent the whole night turning over in his bed, as a result of the summer weather… or of another athletic activity. His whole body is sweating, showing the urgent need of a shower. I'm stunned that he had come in the shop in this state, knowing that there could be female customers at this time of the day. I guess he is quite lucky that there is nobody right now.
He's standing next to the backdoor opposite to me, showing Ken-kun a piece of clothe that I can't recognize. The color is… special… to describe it I hesitate between a flashy pink and a dirty gray…
Ken-kun looks at the clothe, frowning. I repress a giggle, coz I know he's trying to hide the fact that he knows what's going on. After a few seconds of reflection, and under Yohji-kun threatening glare, he finally utters a few hesitating words:
"errrr… isn't it one of your pairs of boxers?"
I would have never guessed… the cloth is in such a state of damage we couldn't even use it to clean the floor…
Ken-kun's eyes then try to focus on the gentian bouquet he is composing. But actually he doesn't want to meet his elder's gaze. Yohji-kun seems to boil with anger. He clenches his fist on what remains of the boxers.
"It's my fave pair of boxers!"
Ken-kun looks like he wants to hide behind the small bouquet, or maybe he thinks Yohji-kun wouldn't try to kick his ass if there's something fragile between them. I feel relieved I'm not those flowers…
"Oooh! But maybe ya don't recognize it! Sure it has changed since I last saw it!"
Yohji-kun is really harsh. Poor Ken-kun! He throws me a glance. I don't know if he's embarrassed because I'm witnessing the quarrel that started on his own mistake, or if he's silently pleading for help. I ponder the question a few seconds, and conclude that I shouldn't interfere right now. Gomen, Ken-kun, but Yohji-kun is really scary… Nevertheless, I have understood something. As I said before, Yohji-kun knows a customer could enter the shop anytime. Of course he doesn't want anybody, and especially any woman, to see him in such an unattractive attire. Thus our dear Yohji-kun stays as near as possible to the backdoor. This way, if anybody comes, he'll just have to jump backside to disappear. And this situation also allows Ken-kun to escape from a potential physical punishment. I don't know if he's aware of that, but anyway right now he'll never do a step in Yohji-kun's direction, should Schwarz come and threaten him on the other side, he'd prefer try his chance with his enemies than facing his own teammate, even without his bugnuk.
Anyway ken-kun remains where he is, a few meters from Yohji's grasp, on the safe side. He's sweatdropping and seems confused, looking down to the flowers. As for Yohji-kun, he's still showing the ex-boxers to Ken-kun, and the very sight of him would scare a vampire… I wonder if Aya-kun has not more influenced him that what we thought. But well, this pair of boxers was his favorite…
"This marvelous cloth was not only very convenient and nice and soft! It was the penultimate asset in my complicated and well-thought seduction process! I wore it on every special hot date!"
"And what's the ultimate asset?"
It was Aya-kun who entered the shop unnoticed, passing just next to me without a noise, which caused a start from Yohji-kun who must have thought it was a customer. He apparently feels relieved to see it is just his friend.
"Well… me, of course!"
Ken-kun listens silently to Yohji-kun's speech, seemingly very busy with the gentians, his cheeks red with either guilt or embarrassment or maybe fear. Aya-kun looks disapprovingly at the almost naked man.
"Go and change into a more fitting suit. You'll scare customers, and it's almost your shift."
Yohji-kun gasps. He, frightening customers? And it was Aya-kun who said that? I can easily imagine what he's thinking.
Aya-kun, as impassible as usual, puts his apron on, ready to work. He starts checking the orders of the morning. Yohji-kun seems to have swallowed the last sentence, and his attention turns back to Ken-kun, who had thought a moment that his beloved leader had saved him. Now he realizes he's not entirely safe yet, and his open face shows all his feelings: first awareness of his situation, then fear and acceptance of his death to come. He doesn't seem in the mood to fight, but it's maybe because he knows he's the one who's wrong.
"Only yesterday I had the proof of it's efficiency on women…"
Here I start to blush, and Ken-kun rises his crimson face.
"Chotto matte! Not in front of Omi!"
I'm impressed that Ken-kun dares to repress his fears for me, and I'm seeing him with a newly born awe. But maybe he thought it could end the conversation, or at least delay it. But maybe I think too much too.
Quite sadly it had absolutely no effect on Yohji-kun, who continued to speak as if he had not been interrupted.
"Last night we were quite in a hurry…"
"Yeah I saw that this morning! "
I can't believe it! Ken-kun finally decided to react! And actually he really seems angry too. Maybe the matter wasn't entirely his fault…
"Your clothes were spread all throughout the place! I even found her socks! She forgot them! You'll have to give 'em back to her. Don't ya know ya live with three other people? When I saw the mess I thought I had to do some cleaning before Omi wakes up…"
At that point I started to feel as if I shouldn't hear the end of the story. I decided to sweep the dirty floor. Ken-kun had broken a pot. He had basically cleaned the area, but I don't want a customer to slip on the remaining dust and water. Ken-kun can really be clumsy at times.
"Some cleaning? Mou… you're kidding! When I woke up and saw the clothes on the chair, clean and folded, I thought I would thank ya! What a joke! I should have guessed you would wash my silk boxers with your soccer suit!"
I can't help bursting out laughing. Ken-kun had put a silk pair of boxers in the washing machine? With his colored soccer suit? Hahahahahaha!
Of course this very natural reaction causes my two friends to look daggers at me. Still laughing, I walk to the exit of the shop and go on with my contemplation of the city's beauty. I can hear both of them shout in the shop. I decide to do my washing by myself and never risk giving clothes to Ken-kun, as it happens sometimes when I have too much homework.
I hear giggles on my left. There's a bunch of girls coming this way. In the shop Yojhi-kun is still having an argument with Ken-kun, wearing only old shorts, his hair undone and having seemingly spent a tiring night. The girls wave at me and fasten their pace. I don't know why, but I suddenly fall in another burst of laughter. I keep on laughing and laughing and laughing, while the girls come nearer and nearer. They stare at me wondering what's happening with me, but they seem to appreciate my mood. I manage to walk some steps away to let them enter the Koneko…
"Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!!! Kawai!!!!!!"
"O.o"
I hear Yohji-kun hurrying into the flat, and the girls giggling, and Ken-kun laughing and Aya-kun grumbling something about being serious or die. The sky is bright, the sun shines, birds are singing. I never felt so good. It's like a rebirth. I want every single day of my life to be like this…
