I Promise (Jun / OC / Ohno) Ch 17
Chapter 17
Jun POV
I lay on the bed. So many things had happened for the past few days, I needed some rest. All of Yuuki’s words keep ringing in my head. The fact that Yuuka is no longer in this world is still something I couldn’t accept yet. No matter how many times I toss and turn, I can never get my self to settle down and sleep. The manila envelope is still within reach, but here I am, just staring blankly at it.
“Jun-kun, you‘re friend is here.” I heard my mom called from downstairs. “Hai.. ” I replied. “I‘ll let her in!” My mom opened the door. “Jun-kun, it‘s Mara-chan.” My mo winked. I immediately sat up at the hear of the name Mara. Mara was my friend, and also Yuuka’s friend. Tho, she was younger, she was like a sister who was always there for me. Always there for me when I’m discontent.
“Jun-kun..” She pushed the door slowly and came in. “It‘s been a while ne?” she gave me a smile and shut the door behind her. “Mara-chan…” gasped. She had changed a little. Looking prettier of course. “Wow, you look great.” I said smiling. “And you don‘t. What‘s wrong?” she walked to my bed and sat next to me. “You‘re always there for me when I need someone the most aren‘t you?” I asked teasing.
“I felt my Jun senses tingling. I figured you were troubled?” she laughed. “Hahaha. You haven‘t changed. Mann, haven‘t you matured??” I smiled and lay on my bed. “But im still younger than you!” she lay next to me, on bed. “But you act like a mom. Hahaha” I laughed faintly. I was great having Mara around. She’s always there to make me feel better. Always suddenly appearing out of no where and come to hug me. That’s what I love about her.
“So, tell me, you know you can trust me.” Mara said when she turned to me. All I did is sighed. “Yuuka was my friend. I have a reason why I‘m here. Its because she wants me to. And I felt you needed some huggles.” Mara smiled sweetly. I sat up and sighed again, not knowing where to start. “Hmm, I figured you found out about something.” she raised an eyebrow. “You know it.” I said.
“So.. How long had she been gone?” I asked. “For a while.” she replied. “I guess you met Yuuki huh?” Mara asked. “Yup.” I simply replied. “She‘s a strong girl. Poor darling though, it must‘ve been hard. Suddenly loosing Yuuka. She didn‘t have much time with her. They lived apart. Yuuka in Japan while she was in Canada.” Mara said. I turned to her , speechless and shocked. “That‘s why you never knew Yuuka had a twin sister and you‘ve never met her.” Mara smiled. “And there are so many more things too.”
“Sad, I don‘t know much about my love.” I replied weakly. “She has a reason to keep it from you.” Mara said. “Sad, I never knew she doesn‘t trust me.” I gripped my hand. “I’m sure Ohno knows a whole lot about her. And as for me, nothing. Sometimes, she makes me think if she really loves me. I don’t know anymore Mara-chan..” I could feel the tears in my eyes, threatening to fall out. “Let it all out..” Mara whispered. “Mara.. I envy Ohno. He‘s talented and loved. Yuuka trusts him better than me. I always ak myself, if I ever deserve her. Why did she chose me and not Ohno. Ohno know damn a lot more than me. He knew she passed away. Yuuka didn‘t even tell me anything. I know nothing. She makes me feel like a stranger. I feel like she‘s a stranger to me.” I knew my tears had already made it move, running down my face.
Mara patted my head and I surrendered my self. I hugged her. I needed a hug. I need someone to open up to. “Jun, she loves you. She has her reasons.” Mara explained, as she returned the hug and rubbed my back. “Reasons, everyone knows why but not me. Why do I feel unloved?” I asked again, not letting go of the hug. “Here,” Mara pulled back and handed me a small box. “It‘s from her. Open it when you think it‘s time. But not now Jun.” Mara stood up.
“Go and talk to Satoshi. Figure things out. Settle things and get some sleep. Okay?” Mara gave me a warm smile. I stood up and hugged her. “Arigatou..” I said. She smiled and walked out the door. “And one thing, take care okay?” Mara shut the door behind her. I sat on bed and took the envelope. I opened it and took out the contents. My eyes widened , more tears flooded out as I saw the content. God… tell me, what should I do? My hands trembled holding the contents.
