Usagi was walking around the lake in the park enjoying the peacefulness of her surroundings. It had been a hectic day.
“Dawdling again Odango?” a familiar voice asked.
Sighing with frustration she answered, “What are you doing here Mamoru-baka? I was just enjoying the peacefulness of the park and you came and ruined it.”
“I could say the same about you. I would have thought that you would have been at the arcade right now,” Mamoru commented easily with a smile.
“I’m not always at the arcade,” Usagi responded quietly.
“What’s wrong Odango?” Mamoru asked his blue eyes showing concern.
Usagi looked into those eyes and saw the sincerity of his concern and answered with a slight sadness in her voice, “Things are just so crazy right now. With school and my parents and I just feel like I can’t keep up with it all.”
“What other things would you have going besides the arcade?” Mamoru teased but instantly regretting it when he saw the hurt in her face.
“I knew that you wouldn’t understand. Why did I even bother? Don’t ask if you don’t care,” Usagi answered as her eyes were threatening to spout tears and walked away.
‘Why is he always like this? Why does he like to hurt me like this?’ She thought to herself.
“Odango, wait up,” She heard Mamoru call out.
She just kept on walking until she felt someone pull on her arm.
“What do you want Mamoru-baka?” Usagi asked in frustration.
“Usagi, I’m sorry,” Mamoru replied seriously.
Usagi was shocked at his use of her real name and answered, “It’s okay. I should have known that you would say that.”
“I didn’t mean anything by it. I really never meant to hurt your feelings,” Mamoru quickly explained.
“I understand Mamoru. Apology accepted,” Usagi answered smiling again.
“How about I treat you to a chocolate milkshake to make up for it?” Mamoru asked.
Usagi’s smile widened and asked, “Chocolate? It’s my favorite. How did you know?”
“It’s my secret,” Mamoru answered with a secretive grin.
‘One day I hope I will learn all of your secrets.’ Usagi thought to herself with a smile.
