“Vivio! Come down, we have lots of costumers today. Hurry up!” my mom said.
“Okaa-san, why now? I’m tired from yesterday’s exam.”
“Vivio…” I stood up; I don’t want to hear the reason why I need to help on the shop.
“Fine mom.” I said as I immediately went to the bathroom.
My mom just sighed.
My family owns a pastry shop. It’s very popular ‘coz the best cakes and cookies can be found in our shop.
I brushed my teeth and changed my clothes. I looked at the mirror.
“Fighto!” I said as I smiled.
“Vivio!”
“Hai. Hai. Coming!” then I went downstairs.
--
My mom is right; there are so many people in the shop. I looked at my mom and she’s very busy giving the orders.
“Vivio, here, deliver it to Mrs. Yamada. Block 162, Tokyo St.” she said as she gave me the box of the strawberry-flavored cake.
“Eh, nani?! Why me?”
“We’re very busy right now so just deli-“
“Mom, where’s Michida-san?”
“He’s absent. So please…”
“Fine. “ I sighed. I’m tired right now. “Ja’ne.”
--
I’m riding in my scooter when I saw a 162 plate in the gate.
“Maybe that’s the place of Mrs. Yamada-san. Yeah, block 162.” I rang the doorbell and a woman in her mid-40 open the gate.
“Ohayoo, this is the cake that you order.” I said, handing the cake to Mrs. Yamada.
“Ohayoo. Oh, are you the daughter of Dera?” I nodded and smiled.
“Oh, you’re now a teenager! Oh my goodness, you’re so tall!” I giggled.
“I’m your mother’s best friend.”
“Really?!” she nodded.
“Oh, it’s getting hot, come in.”
“B-but-“
“No buts. I want you to meet my son anyway.”
“Uhm, ano-“and yeah, she dragged me.
“Here, have a sit. I’ll just call Ryosuke.” I nodded. Wow, their house is small but elegant.
“Ryosuke, we have a visitor, come on.” I heard Mrs. Yamada said.
“Mom, if that’s one of my girlfriends, please tell that I’m sick of them.”
“Ryosuke…”
“Ahh, fine mom.”
“Sorry, Ryosuke is really lazy.” Then a guy appeared behind Mrs. Yamada. He’s scratching the back of his head, and then he looked at me, our eyes met. His eyes were in shocked state. Eh?
“Ryosuke, here’s Vivio. Vivio, Ryosuke, my son.”
I stood up and bowed. “Yoroshiku.” He bowed too and says a “Yoroshiku.”
“I’ll leave the two of you; I’ll just get a food to eat.” I smiled at Mrs. Yamada.
I looked at Yamada and he’s still in the shocked-state.
“Uhm, is it just me or you’re eyes are really like that?”
“Ah, gomene. It’s just very unusual to have a beautiful visitor in our house.” He said, scratching the back of his head. He is really a playboy.
I laughed.
Then Mrs. Yamada came in.
“You’re mom and dad will be here tonight.”
“Really? Why?”
“A family gathering.” Mrs. Yamada said, smiling.
Eh? Family gathering?
“A-ano, Mrs. Yamada, I need to go since our shop is very busy now. Thanks for everything.” I said
“Oh, it’s nothing dear since we’re going to be a family soon---“she said smiling. “Ryosuke, go and accompany her outside. Assure that she’ll leaving safe.” Ryosuke nodded.
“Thanks again Mrs. Yamada.” I said, bowing then the two of us leaved.
--
Silence.
“Uhm, sorry for bothering you.” I said, giving him a weak smile.
“It’s nothing, really.” Then we’re now in the place where my scooter was parked.
“Uhm, thanks.”
“You’re welcome. Drive home safely. “I smiled then leaved.
--
“Tadaima.”
“Oh, you’re here, so you meet Reia… and his son?” my mom asked teasingly.
“Yeah.”
“So what can you say?”
“Well, they’re good, you’re best friends right?” she nodded.
“Mrs. Yamada said that she’ll go there for dinner.”
“Yeah, she called earlier and said that.”
“Oh I see.”
“One box of strawberry cake please!” the man ordered.
“Hai!” I said as I get his order.

Evening
“Mom, do I really need to wear a dress like, ugh, this?” I said, pointing at my flowery dress that she bought last week.
“Of course, you need to be presentable.” She said
“It’s just a dinner!” I said, with a smug face.
“Vivio…”
“Fine.” I don’t want her to be upset then mom and I went downstairs and leave.
--
When we arrived at Yamada’s residence, Mrs. Yamada greeted us with a smile, of course, with her son. They have some talk in the room living room, leaving me and Yamada-kun alone.
Silence.
“Uhm, where are you studying?” he asked me, breaking the silence.
“Oh, Horikoshi Gakuen, you?”
“We’re studying in the same school?!” he said.
“Eh? You’re studying in Hori too?” I asked him. He nodded.
“How come I didn’t know you?” he said, rubbing his temples.
“Well, I’m a nerd and base on your appearance, you’re a playboy, so playboys don’t want nerd girls in their way right?” he laughed.
“I’m not a playboy.”
“Well, you said so.” We both laugh.
“You’re selling cakes right?” I nodded.
“Wow, I want to live in your house so that it’ll be free to have ichigo cake always.”
“Huh? You like strawberry cakes too?”
“Yeah, why?”
“That’s my favorite!”
“Really? Hahaha. I’m first.” He said, sticking out his tongue. Hahaha, he’s so childish! I just laughed at him when suddenly Mrs. Yamada called us ‘coz we’ll have our dinner, we both nodded and went inside.

Dining room
The sitting arrangement is this, my mom is sitin beside Mrs. Yamada while me, I’m sitting with Yamada-kun.
“I guess the two of you are having fun ne?” Mrs. Yamada blurted out.
“I just know that we’re in the same school.” Yamada-kun said.
“Oh, that’s good; can you please take care of her? She’s clumsy sometimes. “My mom said as I glared at her.
“Oh, sure Mrs. Takamachi.” He said, smiling at my mom and to me.
“Dera, they look cute together ne?” I blushed. What the hell are they thinking?
“Eto-o, I’m hungry, let’s eat.” Yamada-kun said as Mrs. Yamada and my mom agree to him and we start to eat.
After eating dinner, we bid a goodbye to Mrs. Yamada and Yamada-kun. Yamada-kun went near me and asked for my number. Since there’s no harm to be friends with him, I gave my number to him. He smiled a very wide one and says a “thank you” to me. I just smiled at him then mom and I leaved.
--
After that meeting, Yamada-kun starts to go to our pastry shop and always eat ichigo cakes. We talked for how many hours. We talked about school and other stuffs and now I know lots of things about him. We talked in the phone for hours. We just laughed and talked about some nonsense things. One time while we are talking about school stuffs, he held my hand. I was shocked at first. He’s face is so serious that I just gulped.
“Vivio-chan, I like you.” I blushed. I like Yamada-kun too but he’s popular. Maybe I’m just one of the girls that he’ll just hurt and leave.
I fake a laugh. “There’s no way you’re gonna like me. Are you kidding me?” He just looked at me and sighed.
“Do I look like I’m kidding? Of course not. I like you Vivio.” He said.
“I---I don’t know what to say. A popular and a---handsome guy like you will never fall for someone like me.” I said as I stood up and leave. He grabbed my arm.
“It’s not about popularity Vivio, I don’t care about my school’s reputation, the only thing I want for now is to be with you.” He said. I can hear the sadness in his voice.
“Do I need to prove that more than words?” I don't know what to say.
“I--Sorry.” I said and leaved. Sorry Yamada-kun.
--
Next day in class, I saw him in the canteen. I looked at him and leaved. I can’t talk to him. Maybe I really hurt him? Yeah, I like him but I don’t know. My heart says that I’ll accept that confession of him but my brain tells me that he’ll just hurt me. I don’t know what to believe.
As I’m walking in the school corridor, 3 girls blocked my way.
“Is this Yamada-kun’s girlfriend? What an ugly girl.”
“Huh, we must teach her a lesson.” Then all went black.
--
I can hardly open my eyes. When I tried to stand up, I feel this pain in my back and stomach then I saw bruises and cuts in my body. My school uniform has some cuts too. I look around and saw the 3 girls that blocked my way when I was walking in the corridor.
“Oh, the ugly betty is already awake.” Then her comrades laughed.
“What do you want from me?”
“We want you to get lost in this earth.” She said, pulling my hair.
“Yamada-kun don’t deserve a girl like you.” The other girl said.
“I don’t deserve someone like the 3 of you.” The 3 other girls looked back. The voice is kinda familiar. I find where that voice came from and saw a guy standing in the door. I can’t see him clearly since my eyes were blurry.
“Ya-Yamada-kun?!” the 3 girls said in unison. I was shocked to hear that he’s here.
“Get out now or else I’ll kill the 3 of you. I assure you that next time you’ll gonna do this to her again, you need to find the best surgeon in the world ‘coz I’m the one who’ll gonna kill you.” He said as he kicked the chair near him that makes the 3 other girls run for their lives. He then ran to me and hugged me.
“I’m sorry. It’s all my entire fault.” Then he carried me in a bridal style. I cried.
“What---what are you doing here? You-you better leave me alone.”
“I can’t do that.”
“Why?”
“Because I love you. How many times do I need to prove it anyway?” I smiled. I guess this guy really love me. What’s the harm? I love him back.
“Is that smile of yours means you love me too?” I nodded.
“If you already healed I want to hear that coming from your mouth.” He said, chuckling.
“I-I love y-y-you Yamada Ryosuke.” I saw the shockness in his eyes. He smiled and kissed my forehead.
“I love you Vivio. Always.”
I guess he proved that he’s love for me is real, not just by saying ‘I love you’… but more than words.
A/N: I hope you understand what I’m tryng to imply. hehehe. ♥
