Chapter 5
I never looked back as I ran.
I was aware people are looking at me, who could blame them if they so a woman with a ripped top.
Also that looks like a zombie from a horror movie.
I was feeling sick inside, my stomach twisting in agony.
Feeling down, I remembered, I can't give up.
After running 5 more minutes, I saw Kippei apartment.
I felt much better.
Right, I will just walk up and…..
What will I say?
I never noticed that I was standing outside his apartment.
Shit.
I quickly knocked and waited.
After what felt like forever the door opened.
Kippei was surprised when he saw me, who could blame him. I look like a mess.
I don't know why, but I just started to cry.
I was still clutching my top.
When I let go of it, Kippei was shocked of what he saw.
'Haruhi, come inside' he said.
I nodded and went in.
'Take a seat; I will make you some tea'
I didn't say anything but just sat down.
It was my first time in Kippei apartment.
He really has a nice place, he has lots of books which was the first thing I noticed.
I was thinking how come someone who has a big place lives by themselves.
Maybe he has a lover?
Everyone knows Kippei is not married. He isn't the type of person to talks about themselves.
When I was still thinking, Kippei came with the tea.
'Thank you, I hope I am not intruding' I asked
Kippei laughed.
'Of course not, no one lives here except me, I have no girlfriend so what is the problem'
It's like he just read my mind.
I was feeling weird inside.
I took a sip, hoping I will feel better.
'Haruhi, I am just going to get to the point, what the hell happened?
I felt nervous all over again.
'I told Kochi I wanted a divorce, and we started to argue'
'And' Kippei said.
I took a deep breath.
I fully explained what had happened.
All of a sudden there was a loud crash.
Kippei knocked his tea on the floor.
KIPPEI!
'Are you alright, I will get something to clean the mess with'
I got up to look for something to clean when Kippei suddenly grabbed me.
As I said before, Kippei is much gentler than Kochi.
Kippei just hugged me.
I was shocked.
What is he thinking?
I tried to let go, but he just kept holding me tightly.
It didn't hurt at all. It felt nice.
I leaned on his chest and I can hear his heart beating.
Also I can hear mine.
The hug felt like eternity.
I didn't want to let go.
But eventually Kippei released me from his embrace.
He just looked at me.
'I want to kill that bastard' Kippei growled.
'Kippei, violence won't solve anything' I said.
I was panicking; I did not want Kippei to hurt Kochi because of me.
'He hurt you Haruhi; I can't forgive him for that'
'Kippei, why do you care so much about me?
Kippei went red.
Oh my goodness.
Kippei took a deep breath.
'I am in love with you Haruhi, and I want you to leave your husband for me'
I blushed.
No one in my entire life has said something like that before, not even my jerk of a husband.
I was thinking about Kippei, thinking how I always loved him.
He got transferred in my work place two months ago, which I was already married.
Kippei was always nice to me, and I felt really happy about that.
I never noticed that Kippei was still looking at me.
He is waiting for me to answer I thought.
I looked in Kippei eyes and answered.
'I love you too Kippei, I smiled.
And with that Kippei gently kissed me on the lips.
'Just so you know, you are not going home tonight, he declared.
'I wasn't going to' I grinned.
Kippei chuckled.
He scooped me off my feet at took me to bed.
And you all know what will happen, don't you :D
