My Story With Him (Jun) - Ongoing Fiction - Chapter 5
Entry no. 5 - How I “dreamt” about him.
My heart dropped when I saw the one who called me, all of the smile on my face disappeared and was suddenly changed with borderline fear and numbness. Right in front of me, along the dark alley way....were three men, dressed up in the most hideous long coats match it up with the unkempt sleeves and shredded ends. I stepped back a little, fearing of what will happen next.
What happened....I looked around, come on Hana, where are you? What stupid turn did I make and the moment I spotted which street I am now in, I felt like slapping my head...BAKA THIS IS THE FAMOUS YANKEE STREET!
Oh crap, now what?
“So honey, what are you doing late at night like this??” eewwe....that blonde dyed guy just called me honey....this is BAAADDDD....
“Ummm...well trying to get home as soon as possible!” I said with a funny wave of the hand, what the heck is that wave for baka!.... “so umm...yeah bye!”
I quickly went on walking...
“Whoa...no no no....don’t be in such a hurry...enjoy our company even for a while!” the other guy grabbed my waste and pulled me towards his chest, he smile and totally ewe his breath smells like trash...he noticed how I looked repulse with his breath. “Hey! What’s with the face! Don’t you know a bunch of girls will die for them to get close to my face like this!”
“Certainly whoever gets close to your face like this will die!” I shouted back..
“FIESTY!” the smallest one teased...
“NANDE!” the yankee holding me hugged me tighter, “Do you know who you are talking to!”
“No and I don’t want to know! HAYA!” and with all the strength that I have punched the yankee’s face...
THUD!
He hit the wall behind him...
I turned around, panting and breathing heavily, ouch my punching hand still hurts....
“LEAVE ME ALONE BAKERO!” I screamed....hoping that someone will help me...but then I saw in the corner of my eyes, people are just looking at us in this alley way and were just hushing and slowly walking by....GREAT ARE THERE NO KNIGHT IN SHINING ARMOR ANYMORE!...
“With that you have to pay us now!” the other yankee said...
“what?!” I suddenly felt like my throat became drier...
“yeah, you punched our riida and that means extra pay! Or else!” the smallest started walking towards me...
“WHAT?!?! THAT!” I looked at the man still rubbing his face and totally dizzy with my punch, they call that leader? Hmmm..maybe I can talk my way out of this....besides, I’ve never backed down from anyone, why should this be an exemption! I looked at their so-called leader....with the strongest poker face that I can give snided and laughed sarcastically... “You...you call that leader? He fainted in just a single punch from a girl like me, so that means he’s not that strong at all....I am not afraid of your leader or any of you two...so whatever you have...BRING IT ON BAKEROS!” I shouted...
I posed, getting ready to punch or kick....running through my head all of the Bruce Lee movies, wait doing the Bruce Lee pose is kinda looking stupid....event eh touching of the nose umm that’s silly...ok Hana, what are the other fighting pose you remember? Oh yeah! I watched the Gokusen adaptation that Ryota forced me to watch...ok stand up like that leader...that Sawada Shin......
EH?!!??
Something hit me...
“Sa...sa....sawada shin is Jun right?!?” I spilled out of my mouth...
“What?!?!” the yankee said...
“WHATEVER!” I screamed, shook Jun’s face out of me head.... “KYAAAAA!! PUNCH!!” I shouted and with the last eye sight of the smallest yankee with eyes wide open....I closed my eyes, begged God to gave me the same hard punch like Jun’s errmmm NO OF SAWADA SHIN’S! I lunged and punched the ass off that little yankee and quickly without thinking kicked the last one in his errmm privates...
“ITAAAAIIII!!!” they both screamed...
YES! THIS IS MY MOMENT!!!
I quickly grabbed the shirt, and totally ran as fast I could towards the lighted road, and since no car is passing by me, it totally helped in my escape! I ran...go Hana! RUN HANA! AS FAST AND AS FAR AS I COULD! RUN!!
My heart felt like it’s about to explode and my legs about to give in but I continued running....
But not until...
¬BROOM...BROOM!!¬
I stopped....
Motorcycles...
“That’s not good...” I said with my heart stopping to beat, I turned around...Oh yeah this is definitely not good, because there....just a few corners away from me...were the three Yankees, on board of their bikes....behind them....an approximate of 10 or more followers...
“HEY! YOU’RE NOT AFRAID OF US THREE? THEN HOW ABOUT THE WHOLE GANG!” the shortest one with bleeding nose said...
¬YEAH¬ BROOM¬
I stepped back...
Oh God, where am I...what had I done to lead to this, all I want is to get a job and now what....
The Yankees yelled and revved up their engines...
“STOP!”
Now what...
The leader stopped everyone and so they did as what they told them to. He stepped out of his bike and walked towards me...the gravel hitting his foot in every step is making my blood drop more and more...and the next thing I knew, he’s standing too close to me...too much for comfort...but I remained silent and just looking at his eyes, pretending to be strong and brave.
“You punched me.” He said then showed the cut on his lips.
I just stared at him. Hana, be brave...don’t even blink....don’t blink!
“Nobody punched me without paying....” he said then started rubbing my hair....ewe....I slapped his hands off... “PAY!”
“I don’t have money....” I said...he giggled, that’s annoying, “I really don’t...I’m jobless and poor so please you don’t have anything to take away from me so please let me go and tell your minions to go now...” I demanded...
“HAHA!” ok that laugh is creepy... “I’m not asking for money as payment....” he said in the strangest tone, then slowly his finger pointed at my body...WHAT THE HELL!
I stepped back....all of the poker faced bravery I have disappeared....this...this is a different level...
“No....” I said...
I can hear the Yankees cheer and laugh at my panic...
“You punch a yankee...you pay!” he said...
“You don’t want to do that to me...I’m a virgin so you wouldn’t have fun at all!” what the hell hana, what’s that!?!? Where’d did that stupid reasoning came from! Aaaggghhh! I’m so mad at myself, but fear is more...
He smiled and shook his head...
“Virgin? That’s better then I’ll teach...no WE will teach you a thing or two!” he said...
OK! THAT’S IT!
“HAYA!” I screamed....
“ITTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAIIIIIIIIIIIIII!”
The leader yankee screamed....
The stupid minions stopped laughing...
I was panting deeply, my hands clenched in a tight fist....
I watched the leader yankee curl down on the ground, fall with a hard thud and with a face totally red...he started shaking and grabbing his lower part...
“RIIIDA!!”
The minions screamed....
RUN HANA!
I screamed and ran away...without looking back, when I glanced a little I saw a few of them stopped to pick him up, but MOST FOLLOWED ME....Shoot, run Hana run!!
I turned over the corner, nobody still here...where are all people have gone too!! Isn’t this too early for lovebirds to go home or in a love hotel...aarrgghh!
I ran over the playing fields, the streets and even on the seaside....
My knees are killing me now...
And yes, if this is just a normal condition, I know that my body would’ve given in...but I guess adrenaline pumped up my body, that I was able to run as fast as I could, without stopping...they have their motorcycles, but motorcycles couldn’t jump over fences right!
My chest is about to explode, I was breathing too hard that I couldn’t even afford to scream for help...
The chase reached a neighbourhood....I prayed that they’ll stopped...but no they didn’t; they just kept on going and going...my face dripping wet with sweat and my chest felt as if it is about to explode...
I looked back quickly, only few more are following me...probably most of them stopped or are just...SHIT I KNEW IT! THE OTHER HALF JUST WENT TO THE OTHER SIDE, TRYING TO CORNER ME!
“DAMN IT!” I am now crying, and praying at the same time when I skidded, bruising my palm which I used to stop and turn fast and also my right knee...but I couldn’t bother to curl up in pain or wipe the blood off it...my life is on the line! I turned quickly, looked back and run faster....
BUT THEN!!!
CLANG!!
“ITAAAAAAIIII!!”
I screamed as I tumble on the pavement, hitting my forehead....
“WHAT THE?!?!”
I heard a voice scream, I sat up trying to recover my senses, then when I focused....I realized I tripped on some car stuffs, the one you use to change your wheels...I don’t know what you call them...what the...someone’s grabbing my shoulder and helping me stand up...I’m still dizzy....a vague person....
“Hanachan, daijoubu?” he asked....
I’ve heard that voice before, his voice was deep, his hand was warm and he looked at me intently....
“You’re bleeding!” he said and took out a hanky, my eyes are still blurred...but that smell...it’s familiar...
“Help me....” that’s all I could utter...
¬¬BROOM BROOM¬¬
“I saw her run this way!”
I heard the yankee shouted...
Oh no...I lost my balance, I fell on my blurry companion.....he hugged me tighter..
“Save me please!” I begged...
“Hai!” he answered in his comforting deep voice, I don’t know but when he held my arms, I felt safe....he slowly placed me inside his car... “here, use this jacket...cover yourself with this ok?” he said quickly...what the I never saw any jacket as shiny as this....I nodded and covered my body with it...
¬BROOOOOOOMMMMM¬
The motorbikes passed by...I held my breath....trying to be as still as possible....don’t make a move...
“Hey you!” the familiar voice of the leader can be heard....
“yes?” my saviour replied....I clasped my hand over my mouth so as not to make any sound...
“Have you seen anyone in yellow shirt? Running this way?” the yankee asked...
“Um she ran that way.”
I prayed to God....please let them be fooled....PLEASE!
And as if God can really listen....the motorbikes running fainted....and the next thing I knew is that we’re alone now....the silence of the night....finally came...
¬Thud¬
Ouch, my heart jumped when I heard the door opened and the tools, OH YEAH THAT’S WHAT YOU CALL THEM CAR TOOLS, clanged on the back seat...he closed the door and I can hear him exhaled deeply...
“What have you done??? This scenes are just the one I can only see dramas or movies I do....That’s scary....I’m not really Sawada Shin you know.” he said and laughed, wait was that a joke? The suddenly....light started appearing on my eyesight as he carefully takes the jacket off my body...he looked at it...my eyes still blurry... “Oh no, you put blood on the collar, the guys will kill me!” he joked....then suddenly... “WAIT THAT MEANS YOU’RE BLEEDING BADLY!” he shouted and I felt my body jerked hard as he took my face closer and then quick dabs of tissue.... “It’s not much of a cut that it will not need any stitches but you’re a bleeder huh!” he smiled... “Where do you live? I’ll take you home....”
“I...ummm...I....” my heart started slowing down.....I looked at the windshield and finally, the Yankees are really gone now... “I live in....” then my eyes started to get clear....it’s focused now....I can now see everything, from the leather lining of the car, to the funny trinklet on the rear view mirror and then to his rugged pants and on his shirt and on his lips....his birth mark..then oh my...to his eyes...
“Look at how much you bleed Hanachan!!!” He laughed....
“Ju....ju...ju........................”
HANA! I heard him shout, as I suddenly became engulfed in the darkness....
¬¬¬MUFFLED VOICES¬¬¬¬
¬¬¬laughing¬¬
¬Guy asking my mom if this is where the drips came from¬
WHAT THE??!?!?
I sat up straight....gathered all the senses back in me...looked around in my room...I’m in my room now....I grabbed the shirt in me....it’s different now.....wait...what happened yesterday? Last night? Was it all a dream....IT HAS GOT TO BE A DREAM!...
I quickly stepped outside of my room...ran towards the kitchen....
My mom was standing there with tools in her hands...
“Hana, you’re awake now!” she walked towards me and hugged me tight.... “You had a long night....we don’t expect you to wake up so early...” she said with worry...
“Ummm....I...I actually had the weirdest dream mom...I dreamt about being chased by Yankees.....and ummm...I got save by...” I swallowed, preparing to say his name.... “saved by....”
“Ummm, auntie I can’t see the hammer, where do you put it again?” someone asked as he comes inside the kitchen..
“It’s always placed on the most bottom cabinet nearby the stock area, the cabinet that is painted in black.” I answered quickly, then focused back to my mom, “where was I....oh... I was saved by Mats....” wait a minute.....my mom’s holding wood, there’s a ladder in the kitchen, then ummm.....I slowly looked at the man that’s helping my mom and the one looking for the hammer...
“Honey, Jun-kun is really nice, didn’t he only helped you last night and brought you home...he even volunteered to help us fix the roof!” my mom said....
“You...you....you’re here” I said and suddenly...my chest became tighter, my heart dropped and I couldn’t breath anymore..and with that I lost my footing and my eyes went gray and everything spun out of control.
“HANA!”
I was once again eaten by darkness and I can hear my mom calling for me and even....even Jun...the man I thought to be just a dream is actually....real.
