CHAPTER SIXTEEN
--
RINA’S POV
Crap, tension is building up. We have been silent since we came back in the house. No one dared to speak. We finished dinner without a single noise. It’s like talking became a mortal sin in our circle. It all started after that incident…
We were taking pictures of ourselves when I saw a little girl drowning in the sea. Her kayak turned upside down and she was gasping for air. Without hesitation, I dove in the water to rescue the girl. I heard Nakajima screamed my name but I didn’t even bother to look back nor say anything. All I need is to rescue the girl or I’ll bear my conscience with it forever. I knew I am not the one to be blame for the incident. But I can’t bear to just stand and wait for life guards to come.
As I came closer to the little girl, I thought I can’t make it in time. I got difficulty in breathing. I thought i won't be able to rescue her. I thought that i might as well, drown. But an arm surrounded my waist-it was him.
Kento.
Seconds passed, rescuers came to pick all of us. After that, I can feel that Kento is really mad. His eyes scream for it. When we reached the shore line, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me inside the house. actually, it is hurting me. but I don't think i have the right to get angry at him. i just... felt that i don't have the right. The rest followed. I can see through their eyes that they’re mad because of what I did. It was a careless act after all.
“I am going to bed now. Good night,” Ryuu-chan said and looked at me. I nodded as a reply.
“Me too,” when Fuma-kun passed beside me, he patted my back. “Good night.”
Then, Kento left the room without saying a word. I sighed.
“You can’t blame Kento, Rina-chan.” Miyoko said as she arranged all the magazines she scanned. “We were all worried for you back then.”
“I-I am sorry,” I muttered. I have said my apology a couple of times a while ago. I knew all of them accepted it except for Kento. Jeez, I’m getting pissed off with his attitude. He’s making a big ruckus out of that incident. I can’t even understand why he is really mad that time. I mean, all of them became mad on me, but his is different.
“We understand you, Rina-chan, except for Kento.” She said as she stood up. “Well, I’m going to sleep. Good night.”
“Good night.”
After spending my time in nonsense things, I have decided to go to my room upstairs and sleep. Today was indeed tiresome. A lot of things happened.
I lazily crawl on my bed and hid myself under the blanket. It somehow felt good as my skin fell against the beddings. Thought it was summer, the beddings felt cold. Sigh. I stared on the ceiling. I still don’t feel like sleeping. Well,
Kento…

KENTO’S POV
Rina is really careless! She made me worry like hell! The time when she jumped into the water, I didn’t have a second thought to jump after her. Well, I understand her feelings that she wanted to rescue the little girl but still!
Jeez, why am I taking it a big deal? Because I love her! Jeez, yeah, I knew it. I love her…
EH? I love her?!
Hmm... maybe?
Images of her flooded my mind. Her smile, her smile, whenever she's mad, irritated. Her sad face that i don't want to see anymore. Her sweet voice whenever she calls me with those petty names. Everything.
Again, i felt something in me. This unknown feelings that i felt from the very first time I bumped into her. This feelings.... i have this all along. I hate to name this feelings as love. Gaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
What the! After a long time, this is the first time that I have accepted the fact that I love her, right? I never thought that I would fall for someone I just met months ago. I mean, my ideal first love is someone who I met a long time ago and had a strong bond with-started with friends. But we, Rina and I started it as enemies. But I think we can’t really fight with our own hearts once it started beating for someone.
“Rina…” her image started to flash again on my mind. The moment when we were already on the shore after, I felt like hugging her…tight. i was so scared. So scared that i might lose her. But anger took over me so I just pulled her to the house.
That time, I never thought that I could have ever managed to swim after her. My knees were shaking. Rina could have died because of that careless act. Damn, Rina!
