HOW IT SHOULD BE

Chapter 5

Previously..

Rei then stood up and turned his back. "I'm glad. Aya.. I'm just gonna say this once so please listen.. I'm sorry for hurting you, really I am.. Did you really mean that you're gonna give up on me?".

Aya just stared at Rei's back, oh how she wanted to hug him. And just tell him that she loves him no matter what. But, he loves Ran not her. How could she still force herself to somebody who doesn't want her by his side. Aya just stayed quiet not knowing what to say. She doesn't want to give up but, enough is enough. She remembered all those heart aches she keeps having every time Rei, ignores and shows no emotion to her. But when he's with Ran, he's different.

"Aya. I'll take care of you, eve if you don't want me to. I know you want me to go away. So, I'll try my best to take care of you from for away. So, good bye." with that, Rei started to walk away.

Aya stood up, ran after Rei and stood in front of him with tears flowing down her cheeks. Rei stopped in his tracks and stared at Aya's face. "Otohata.. I.."

snap snap snap

"Aya? Aya, are you ok?", Rei asked while snapping his fingers in front of her face.

Aya blinked coming back to reality. 'Huh? Was I day dreaming?'. She leaned back, quite shocked that Rei's face was only inches away. "Uh ano.. I'm alright..", she blushed.

Rei sighed, "So, you weren't listening to what I have said early did you?", there was a glint of disappointment is his when he spoke.

Aya bow down, ashamed for dozing off. She shooked her head, "No, I'm sorry."

Rei faced the sunset and placed his hands in his pocket. There came a slight breeze which created a dangling sound from the the chains of the swing and the sound of the leaves were quite soothing.

"Aya.. I'm just gonna say this once so please listen..", Rei said with a soft voice.

Aya quickly looked up and stared at Rei's back. 'Is this real? This is what I day dreamed just a while ago'. "What is it, Otohata?".

Rei faced Aya, "Were you... really serious that you'd give up on me?".

Aya's instantly turned bright red, 'OH MY! This is really happening! Rei.. you do care.. My heart so much feels lighter, does this mean you finally noticed me and not Ran?'. "Ano.. I don't-".

"Cause, if you do. Then, Kotobuki will really wonder about it. I mean, its not like you just give up easily, neh?I've been so cold to you and still the next day, you still want to see me. Now, that's something-" Rei stopped talking as soon as Aya stood up looking at the ground.

"You.. I thought.. How could you?"

Aya stood there with her fists shaking with anger. "I thought... for a moment that you'd care for me... But no! You first thought of Ran!!". He hugged Aya and he was stroking her back. Aya was shocked at Rei's unusual actions but, she hugged him back and cried her heart out. Rei was calming her down, "Aya, please let me take care of you..".

"So, what you said back at the hospital.." Aya looked at Rei with anger in her eyes. "WAS ALL A LIE!"

Then Aya started to walk away, wanting to never look back and regret what she just said. But, Rei grabbed her wrist and said, "Aya. I do care. I just don't show it. You're not.. like any other girls." Aya started crying and tried to release her wrist from Rei's grip. " You're the one who stands out in the crowd of girls at the back waiting, just waiting there to be noticed. And I do notice you."

Aya faced Rei with a hopeless look, "Rei. I really really love you. But, I have been hurting for so long because, you never try to reach out to me. I AM SO TIRED. I AM SO STRESSED OUT OF WAITING, HOPING AND LOVING YOU."

Rei's eyes widened, and he remembered what the doctor had said. "Emotional stress, that's the biggest contributor to having a heart attack". Rei closed his eyes and gently released Aya's wrist. Aya stood there waiting for Rei's reply but Rei just stayed quiet.

"Rei, just please.. Don't tell Ran about your feelings. sniff She loves Tatsukichi even though she doesn't show it but she does love him. Don't try to ruin their relationship. I have to go home now sniff I have to rest." Aya turned her back and still Rei didn't move or even replied to her.

As soon as Aya was out of sight, Rei looked up at the sky and suddenly tears run down his face. "Aya, I'm so sorry.."
