after school that day as usual....akira packed up his desk and prepare to go home.
as he was walking..back...he felt a presence like someone is following him...shit is it friend of the hooded gang who he beat up at the cafe...? are they looking for revenge...? he caught a glimpse of a person a few stores back......and decided..to enter the tamago bakery
the owner of the bakery mr and ms yota....knew him quite well, he did a lot of odd jobs for them in the past and when he ask if he could usethe back entrance...they just smile and give a thumbs up
at the back alley..akira sprinted back a few stores ...and sneek back into the main road... then he saw a suspicios looking character wearing a hooded track suit.....different from the guys he fought at the cafe last week...this person look more like a stalker than an attacker
the person seems to be waiting for him to come back outside from the bakery and hadn't notice akira creeping closer. as akira was close enough...he quickly grab the left hand of the stalker and pull down the hood...
a flowing long crimson hair emerge from under the hoodie...asakira.swing the person around he notice a very familiar face looking..schocked at him.....the face that in the past week had...shown him him nothing but resentment and hatred......"rieka"
both of them stare blankly into each of face for several minutes....akira seems confused.....rieka seems..embarrassed but tried to look..calm as possible...
"are you following me...?" seddenly akira spurt out his curiosity
"like hell..i would....."..stuterring.....rieka..... answered...."i just wanna buy some buns..at the bakery.." sounding like an unplaned lie.."the make the best croissant buns here you know.."
"then why are you in a disguise....? why are you hiding here....just go in and buy them.. akira...ask her firmly
she seems to be out of idea....and could only stutter..
without waiting for her to reply...Akira grab her hand andbrought her into the bakery... and with a smile....."obasan...can we have two croissant please.."
mr yoda reply that giggling...."oit you know we dont sell croissant...akira....is this your new girlfriend?"
rieka's face turn red and look like she is about to cry out of embarassent..
"hehehe....just joking.....can i have...of your tuna bun please"...
after paying for them....akira. escorted the still red face rieka to a near by bench
"they make the best tuna bun....i know becouse occasionally i work here.."
"rieka...why do you hate me so much.....i apoligize for the other day..i do hope we can get along"
"i ...i...have been following you for a week.....trying to catch you doing...err.......bad things... i'm sorry..."
"so did i.......do bad things...?
"errr... not yet......"
the conversation when silence for a few minutes......
"so if you ever catch me doing bad things......can you do me a favor...and stop me...?"
rieka seems schocked....and didn't reply.....
"i want to ask you something......last week at the cafe when we first me to you remember anything that happen....you were there right...?
shit.....i can't tell her
"err i dont remember anything....i passed out...."
rieka seems dissapointed...with that answer....she stilll have no clue who had save her
"by the way....what ever happened to the hodded guys..?
"my father told me all of them are dead.....4 at the scene....and one at the police station.."
shit......dead...are you joking......as akira scream silently......i could have sworn...i just punch them
