It was 5:30 P.M. The sky was dull, about to go into sunset. Koharu didn't want to leave at a time like this, but she had the dinner show with her parents.
Aika was sleeping peacefully on Koharu's lap, her glossy lips formed a smile.Koharu's heart was beating fast as she got closer to Aika's lips. She kissed them, making Aika wake up.
"What time is it?" Aika asked, rubbing her eyes.
"5:35 right now." Koharu replied, looking at the clock on the wall.
"Are you staying for dinner?" Aika's hand was in Koharu's as she looked at her with watery eyes. Koharu looked down and squeezed Aika's hand. Koharu didn't want to hurt her feelings, but she had to leave.
"I'm going to a dinner party." she replied, walking to the door.
"Okay then." Aika murmured, opening the door.
Koharu couldn't stand seeing Aika's sad face. It made her sad also. Not thinking, Koharu kissed Aika's soft lips and left to go home for the dinner party.
********************
"Koharu!" Kusumi Keiichiro's voice boomed from the quiet living room. Koharu had no choice but to walk inside the dark room to hear her father lecture her.
"Yes Daddy?" Koharu's voice was squeaky like a mouse.
"Get ready for the dinner party," he said, his voice a little calm. "I know you were at the Mitsui's house." "Yes sir." Koharu went upstairs to her room, taking out her black dress and pearls.
Kusumi Marina, Koharu's mother, stepped inside the room, a look of disappointment written all over her face. "Stop seeing Aika Koharu." her words stung Koharu.
Koharu turned around in shock. "Why?"
"Because I said so. She's not right for you."
"Are you kidding me? I lo-"
"The person you should love right now is Michishige Sayumi."
"But Mo-" "Hurry up. We're going to be late."
"Yes ma'am." Koharu got dressed in five minutes and went downstairs. However, she was angry that her parents wouldn't let her see Aika.
'I love Aika. I'm not letting anyone take her away from me.'
