9th Deception

[sekai_nohate]

I will be out today taking care of recent happenings if anyone needs to reach me.

[Private]
Of all the horrible timing... I'm sure this will not bode well for my position at the achademy. My engagement to that foolish girl is the only thing cementing my place as acting Chairman.

Damn it all.

EDIT: And what in the HELL is THIS!?!

Why did you hide this from me? I am your best friend!

[sekai_nohate]

Why do you think Romeo? You are my best friend. Like the little brother I never had. I was asshamed and I didn't want to hurt you!

[ooc; I'm officially throwing stuff to the wind and just going totally OOC with this ha ha]

[irislover]

You could have... told me. I would understand. Um... your friendship is more important that be married with a woman I can't ever love.

[sekai_nohate]

I know you would have understood. You are too kind that way. We all take advantage of that.

I thought it was better this way... to spare you.

[irislover]

You should have!

Akio...

She... she... God. How could she?

[sekai_nohate]

Oh for god's sake, be a MAN for once...

I'm sorry, Romeo.

[irislover]

HOW could SHE? How... She knew I wasn't ready. I... I need to see you, Akio.

I can't put with this farce for long. It isn't right.

[sekai_nohate]

Of course.

[ He's standing near the fountain, watching the water run, recalling his first meeting with Juliet in the same spot. Those were happpier times. ]

[He found Rome fairly quickly, looking pristine despite the rather heated rende vue with Diva not an hour prior. He felt no shame about it. But he was also not about to broadcast it.]

[He walked toward him, wrapped in a dark coat.]

[irislover]

[Notices, runs to him like a shoujo heroine he is.]

Akio!!

[sekai_nohate]

[Inwardly grimmaces, hoping the charge wasn't going to end in contact.]

Romeo. Good evening...

You seem to be taking the news... almost too well.

//Action//

[irislover]

[Stops and takes a huge breath.]

Yes. I have decided... I should divorce from Diva. I'll assume all responsability. You could be happy together, Akio.

//Action//

[sekai_nohate]

...

I see...

[Long pause.]

However... my engagement to Kanae... I don't know that I can rightfully shirk off that responsibility... Or rather I don't want to.

Re: //Action//

[irislover]

Do you love Kanae, Akio? Like you love Diva? Don't make the same mistake I did and marry a woman you don't love.

//Action//

[sekai_nohate]

[Turns away.]

You know the answer to that. And you should know by now that love doesn't rule my life the way it does yours.
