[Complete] Love Is Blind- Chapter 9

Mar 23, 2011 17:00

Well, it is really snowing outside. It's like a snowstorm. *sighs* And I thought it's spring.... (-_-;) The weather in Canada sucks! When it's spring, it feel like winter. I guess mother nature is going crazy this year. Anyways, enjoy the two chapters I will be posting up.

-Jun had dragged Kanon in a dark alley and protected her from a couple of guys in black suits. It turns out that those guys were working for her father. Kanon's father works as a CEO for a company and her mother is a lawyer stationed in Chicago. Jun couldn't believe that he father would do something like this to her. The next day, Sho visits the center and wanted to help Kanon.

Chapter 9

“Wow, apparently guys are into blind girls.” Natsuki joked as she left a hot cup of tea on her desk. Kanon chuckled and started to hear Sho playing with the children in the room. “Maybe I should fake being blind and see if handsome guys would hang around me too.” Natsuki laughed and placed the tray on the table, and then she leaned against the wall.

Kanon sighed and shrugged her shoulders, and then she picked up the hot cup of tea. “Saa. You can try but they’ll probably run away once they find out your past.” Kanon laughed and sipped on her hot tea. Natsuki grunted and she noticed Sho walking towards them.

Natsuki nudged Kanon, which made Kanon spill her hot tea on the floor. “Ah, I’ll go get some towels!” Natsuki shouted which made Kanon suspect that she had a plan up her sleeves. As Natsuki scurried away, she decided to leave them two of alone a while.

“Ah, what a mess…” Sho muttered and quickly pulled the tissues out from the tissue box that were close by. He started to place the tissues over the spilled tea and began to clean up.

Meanwhile Sho was cleaning up the spill, Kanon slowly started to graze her hand over the floor trying to feel for where the spill was. She wanted to clean up with him because it was her tea that was spilled. As Kanon grazed her hand, she suddenly touched Sho’s warm hand. Kanon hesitantly pulled back her hand and muttered. “Gomenasai.”

Sho looked up at Kanon and smiled. “It’s okay. I’ll clean up the mess.” Kanon quickly shook her head and heard Natsuki’s footsteps. “It’s my mess since I was the one who spilled the tea.” Kanon said as she grazed her hand again and felt a pile of wet tissues that were soaked with tea. She was about to grab them when Sho placed his hands on top of hers. “It’s okay. I can find the garbage can and throw these out. Don’t worry, I don’t mind cleaning up.” Sho whispered to her and she slipped her hands away from the pile of wet tissues.

Kanon slowly nodded her head as she bit her lower lip. She wondered why Sho was so kind and considerate to her like Jun? Is every member of Arashi going to treat her like a special needs girl that cannot do anything? She didn’t like it when people were generous to her. She just wanted to be treated as a normal person.

Natsuki quickly passed a towel to Sho and he started to wipe the floor dry. “What took you so long?” Kanon whispered to Natsuki as she bent down to help with the spill.

Natsuki smirked and said. “It was hard finding some towels. I had to look everywhere for them!”

Kanon sighed and slowly shook her head in disappointment. “You know where the towels are. You always use them when you make a mess on your desk.”

Natsuki quickly looked at Kanon and widened her eyes. “Even though I can’t see, I have many allies here on my side. Also word spreads like fire here.” She chuckled before getting up to walk over to the children playing with the toys in the room.

Natsuki blinked her eyes a couple of times before she started to laugh. Sho furrowed his eyebrows at Natsuki and then he cocked his head as he continued to help clean up.

It was 6 at night and it was time for all the staff members to leave. Sho had stayed there the whole day because he was intrigued by the education they provide for the blind and also, he was worried about Kanon.

Throughout the day, Sho noticed that Kanon was a good person with a kind heart. She wanted to help everyone to get through their denial phase. Sho pitied Kanon because she was a great person with a huge setback. He wanted to make sure that she was happy with her life.

“Ah, I’ll take you home.” Sho said and grabbed Kanon’s walking stick from her hand. “But…” Kanon trailed off. “It’s okay. I have time to walk you home.” Sho said with a smile on his face. Kanon slowly nodded her head. She knew that Sho was being nice to her but she didn’t want to be treated this way. Also what had happened with her father and Jun… She wanted to avoid being alone for a while.

Kanon slowly wrapped her hands around Sho’s arm. Sho looked at her and then he quietly chuckled to himself.

“Then I live in the apartment near by here. It should be the first one after the traffic lights.” Kanon said and Sho started to quickly look around the area. He noticed some traffic lights a few meters ahead and then he turned his head to see a huge apartment complex near by. “Oh, I see it.” Sho muttered.

Kanon giggled quietly to herself. Suddenly the atmosphere around them turned silent. Sho didn’t know what else to say and Kanon didn’t want to start a converation. Well she doesn’t really like talking to people. All she wanted to go home and get some rest from a hectic day at work.

Sho started to look around the city and started to whistle to a tune. Kanon perked up and immediately recognized what song he was humming.

I am timid, and lost in the wind
The shadow of that day passes me by,
The truth is, I have a past of easily crying
More than it would appear.

Fresh water, flowing without stopping
A devilish fire that burns without disappearing
There won't be a summer again
Where I'll meet a girl that I love that much

Everyone searches for love, destined to wander in the darkness
So I trust myself to the wind, oh, my destiny
Until my tears dry up

When we gaze at one another, I can't talk to you naturally
Loneliness like a tidal wave
I know...I'm afraid of it, hoo
From the time we met, the magic hasn't gone away
In a dream like a mirror
My memories are rain everyday

Kanon sang quietly to herself. As she was singing, Sho looked down at Kanon singing. She had a big and happy smile on her face. Sho continued to hum until the end.

“Do you like ‘Tsunami’ by Southern All Stars?” Sho asked after they finished singing the song. Kanon nodded her head and said. “Hai. I love the lyrics of this song. It’s a sad love song.”

Sho smiled and stared at the sky in front of him as he said. “This is my favorite song of all time.” Kanon slowly opened her mouth and turned her head towards Sho. “Really? You must be kidding…” Kanon paused; she couldn’t believe it. “What’s wrong with liking this song?” Sho asked and creases started to appear on his forehead.

“It’s my favorite song too. It would calm me down and I would feel at peace while listening to it.” Kanon muttered. Sho widened his eyes. He couldn’t believe that they had something in common. Now Sho wanted to find out what else they had in common. He was beginning to believe that they were a perfect match for each other.
