IWASAKI MAI
Chocolate powder, water, a little bit of my special ingredient… Yoshi! This should be good.
I took a little part and tasted the chocolate liquid I mixed. And… yuck!
Fine. Fine. Trial #8 failed.
Great.
Now, a little bit more water… A bit less cocoa powder, less confectionary sugar… Where’s that secret ingredient number 7?
TATEISHI AYU
Mai and I have already planned to have a sleep over in her house on first Friday the 13th this year, which was well, today, February 13, 2009. Unfortunately, Mai still hasn’t finished making her Valentines’ choc… I’ve already prepared mine so, here I am watching her mix, taste, and put on a sour face as she makes her choc for well I guess, Yamada.
“Mai-chan,” I grumbled. “Aren’t you finished yet?”
“Sorry, Ayu-chan.” She sighed, but still very concentrated on mixing what I guess is her 100th trial. “I’m still not satisfied with the taste of this chocolate. I can’t possibly give this to Yama-chan in this case.”
“I’m sleepy…” I said as I yawned. “Are you nearly done?”
She tasted some batter from the white spatula and showed a face of plain disgust. “Nope.” She said as she took her pencil out of the spring of her blue notebook and wrote as she said to herself, “Trial #9 failed.”
Looks like she’s doing this the scientific way. Sigh.
“Would you mind if I go ahead?” I tried to say as another yawn escaped me. “I’m so sleepy… And I’m gonna meet up with Chii early…”
“Okay…” she said as she wrote something again on her notebook. “Oyasumi, Ayu-chan.”
She was so absorbed in what she was doing that I doubt she’ll end anytime soon. I lazed up to bed and slept.

TATEISHI AYU
I woke up early that morning to find Mai sleeping on the couch nearest to the kitchen. She had bags visible in her eyes and she seemed really tired. I prepared myself breakfast and prepared to leave. I was about to leave when I remembered that Mai said she was gonna see Yamada at 11, and it was already 10:15 in my watch.
I gently woke her up, “Ohayō, Mai-chan…” I patted her on the shoulder and she rubbed her eyes to wake herself up.
“Ohayō…” she yawned. “What time is it?”
“Time to get up… It’s 10:15…” I replied. “You said you were meeting Yama-chan at 11… What time did you sleep anyway?”
“I don’t know… But the last time I checked the clock, it was 3am…”
“3am?!”
She nodded. “I was right in my 52nd trial. Wait, did you say it’s past 10?!”
She got up quickly and prepared herself for her date.
“I’ll go ahead. Chii is already waiting for me.” I said as she headed to the bathroom. “Ja.”
“Ja.”

IWASAKI MAI
I couldn’t believe I was able to make it on time considering how late I had woken up. I saw him sitting on the usual bench in the most familiar park where we first met. I was running a bit late so I just brought along the box of chocolates I worked on last night, or this morning, which I hid behind me …
He didn’t see me coming and I couldn’t help but stare at him. He was so… indescribable. I couldn’t believe that I have someone like him as my boyfriend. He is every girl’s dream boy and he unconsciously hunts many of which in their dreams. I am not an exception to that. Since he entered Horikoshi Gakuen, every single girl has been hitting on him and confessing all over the place. I tried to hold myself but his presence never fails to make my bones tingle and my knees grow weak. Some even say that his popularity is overrated but, what the hell, he is undeniably hot.
“Hey,” I walked towards him and gave him a peck on the cheek.
“Hey, beautiful.” He replied and I sat beside him, resting my head on his shoulder.
We remained quiet as I found comfort in smelling his scent. We saw a little girl, about eight years of age, shifting her weight from side to side as she bit her lower lip. She held out a red heart box and gave it to a boy she was facing, who is approximately her same age.
“Please accept my chocolate as a sign of your acceptance of my feelings for you.” She said as she bowed shyly.
“Hai.” The boy replied and took the chocolates on her hand.
I smiled on the inside as I could feel confidence immersing as I watched the cute little kids. I giggled softly and clenched the chocolate box beside me. I could only think of a million ways on how to present my chocolates and I couldn’t choose. I don’t even know how to start. Hey, I mean, I can always just give this to him and say ‘I love you’, ne? But, well, I don’t know, maybe that’s just far too simple…
“ Yama-“
“You know what,” he suddenly said, sounding a bit disgust. “This is really what I hate about Valentines…”
“Huh?” I asked.
“The chocolate-giving thing.” He replied. “I mean, look at these…”
He pointed on a plastic bag placed on the floor beside him. I didn’t notice it a while ago but now that he showed me, I could see a lot, and I really mean a lot, of chocolate boxes in the bag which were all addressed to him.
“I mean,” he continued. “What am I supposed to do with all these? Okāsan already said I have been growing fatter.”
I swallowed a chuckle and listened as he continued.
“Chocolates are full of fat and they make me grow fat. They’re full of calories that are so hard to burn. They give some people allergies. They cause addiction to many children that a Willy Wonka had to exist. Chocolates even make dentists rich! They’re also very sweet that I could get diabetes from eating them! You know what’s after diabetes right? I could get sick. If I get sick, I’ll have to go to the doctor. If I’m very ill, they’d have me stay there for so long that I’d be bedridden. I would have to do nothing but sleep all day. And if I don’t get well, you know what will happen to me?! I’ll die! I don’t wanna die! I swear, I don’t know what I’ll do if I see another choc box!”
I tightened my grip on the chocolate box I hid from him. I could feel something ache in me. My heart. I mean, I worked so hard on these chocolates and I don’t want him to not like them… My efforts have all gone to waste.
YAMADA RYOSUKE
I don’t like having to say no to all those girls, which is why I got their chocolate boxes. I hate seeing girls crying, even if I don’t know the person. It’s so hard to say no especially if the girls’ hopes are up.
I didn’t realize that I ranted all about my hatred for chocolate to my girlfriend. I fell silent when I realized that she was quiet. It was queer to find her that quiet. I looked at her and noticed that she was staring at nothingness and had watery eyes.
“Mai-chan, daijobu?” I turned to her, concerned.
Did I hurt her?
She didn’t look at me and suddenly, she started running. Running and leaving me.
“Mai!”
She didn’t look back. She didn’t stop.
I was worried, in the same time, puzzled. What could have led to that?
I noticed that she left something behind. Hey, are these chocolates?
Oh no.
IWASAKI MAI
I ran for who knows how long. Till I reached my haven I didn’t stop.
YAMADA RYOSUKE
It couldn’t hurt if I took one, ne? These chocolates are supposedly for me, ne? I took the box.
Mai is no artist but I could see that the box itself was hard to do. I could see that it was so hard to be done and that I wouldn’t put this much effort to any box. No other box in the stack given to me could ever match this. She went for handmade and I love it.
I pulled the ribbon off and a letter was on top. I opened it and I was right. It was for me.
‘Dear Yama-chan,
You have absolutely no idea how much I love you. I never thought that there’ll ever be a time that I’ll ever love another if you leave me. I love you too much.
I love you, Yama-chan. Thanks for loving me back.
Iwasaki Mai yori.
PS I hope you’ll like these chocolates. I had a hard time achieving the taste that this holds. I hope it fits your taste.’
I felt my heart pound faster. I have always loved Mai. From the moment I had laid my eyes on her. I took one of the foiled wrapped chocolates and opened it. It looked like any other chocolate I had seen and I took a bite.
Oh my god. This is the best chocolate that I had ever tasted!!! It was unexplainable. I tasted chocolate but it was as if it had so much more than just that. It tasted sweet and bitter at the same time. Strawberries? Wait. Yes, there sure is a hint of strawberries in this. This is the best chocolates I have ever tasted!
I finished every bit of that little chocolate but I didn’t take another. I covered the box again. I ran to the direction Mai took. I left the bag full of worthless chocolates from the other girls behind as I held Mai’s box of chocolates close to my chest, hugging and protecting it. Cherishing it as I would do to her.
I knew where she would go if she felt bad or when she wanted to hide. I didn’t think twice when I ran to the direction of the school library.
IWASAKI MAI
I love staying here. It’s quiet. Relaxing. The piercing silence in this place is the reason why it has grown to become my haven. I stayed in my favorite corner where not much people go to and sat on the floor. I lifted my legs and hugged my knees, but having a hard time with the jeans I was wearing. I buried my face in between my legs and breathe heavily.
YAMADA RYOSUKE
I unintentionally hurt the person I love the most. How could I be so stupid? I should’ve known better. I will not forgive myself if I don’t make it up to her.
Mai, I am so sorry.
I was right about going to the library. I saw her at the corner which I think is her favorite with her head buried in between her knees.
“Mai-chan?” I whispered.
She didn’t respond but I knew she could hear me.
I went nearer and sat beside her. She didn’t acknowledge my presence.
“I love you.” I whispered.
“…”
“Mai-chan, gomen nasai…”
“…”
“I love the chocolates.”
“I thought you hate chocolates…” She mumbled.
“I only love yours. I hate what others make.”
“Isn’t that a bit biased?”
“Yes.” I replied. “But your chocolates are seriously good. They’re the best ones I ever had. I love them.”
She looked up at me in disbelief, “Really?”
I nodded. “The best ones I think I’ll ever have.”
“But how about the calories? You’ll grow fat. You’ll also get addicted to them.”
She knew how to get to me.
“I don’t care. I love your chocolates.”
“Diabetes?”
“I’d die if I have to.” I replied. “Do you forgive me?”
She tilted her head on the side and poked her right cheek as she always does when she’s deep in thought.
“No.”
“How can I prove to you that I’m sorry and that I love you?” I asked desperately.
“You owe me a pound of strawberries.”
With that, I knew she had forgiven me. “I’ll even give you a lifetime supply of strawberries if I have to!”
She giggled.
I showed her the box and opened it. I took another foil covered chocolate and unwrapped it. She looked at me grimly.
“What?” I asked.
“You’re not supposed to eat in the library.”
I shove the chocolate in my mouth. Before she could reply, I complained, “But it’s so yummy!!!”
“Shh!” she hissed. “You’re even talking with your mouth full!”
I rolled my eyes and locked my lips with hers, making her taste the chocolate from my mouth.
“I love you, Mai. Happy Valentines.”
Omake:
“What did you put here Mai-chan? Why is it so yummy?” Yamada asked.
“Sweat.” She replied.
“EHH~?!”
“Just kidding!” She said with a cute laugh, making Yamada’s heart do a flip. “Secret ingredient is love. That’s all.”
“Is that why it’s overflowing with love?” Yamada asked innocently.
He didn’t wait for her to answer as he locked their lips together and placed his own secret ingredient to make his kiss sweet.
A/N: Happy Valentines!
