章 72: CHAPTER 72 : Please, Just Look At Me

"Layla! Layla! Wait!"

She was so fast while Touma still in a daze, not knowing what to do. He recalled what happen just now but he couldn't grasp the reason she was so angry about.

He scratched his not so itchy head and frowned. Wondering what he should do now. He blinked a few time before went to the opposite way Kahina ran a moment earlier.

Kahina gritted her jaw as she took a deep breath, calmed herself down. She never had this feeling before and it is so strange for her to lose her composure. But she can't stand when she saw a woman flirting with him. Plus, the woman was so attractive.

She let a heavy sigh out. Rub her forehead then tucked her loose hair behind ears. She let her legs guided her to the places meanwhile her inside her mind there were two little Kahina inside. One with a white dress and a halo, and the other one with a black dress and holding a trident.

"My dear Kahina, you should calm down and handle this rationally." The angel Kahina spoke with a gentle voice.

"No! If you let him have his way, he will cheat on you later! Let's beat the shit out of him!" The devil Kahina smacked the trident.

"You can't do that. Ask him nicely. Everything must be just misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding my ass! She gave him a kiss! There is nothing to be misunderstood with. Don't be a fool."

"Excuse me, little devil. Flying kiss! Not a direct kiss. It meant nothing!"

"It is still a kiss. No fucking excuse!"

"But Touma wasn't the one flirting her. You can't blame him."

"Can't blame him? He took the damn card. Don't you see it just now? What is it for?"

"He may be just being polite."

"Polite?!!! Are we talking about the same emotionless prick who make people kneel just because he doesn't want them to touch him?"

The little devil pounced on the little angel and covered her mouth from talking.

"Mmm! MMMMM! mmm!"

She wiggled herself to escape but failed.

"Shut up little angel! You know nothing about the relationship,"

Little angel bit little devil's hand and hid behind Kahina's shoulder.

"Ouch!"

She stuck her tongue out to the little devil and smile to her victory.

"You come here, little bitch! I'm going to poke you with this!" She pointed out the trident to the little angel.

"Enough!!!"

Kahina slapped herself to get rid of the annoying little Kahina.

Every eye now focused on her with judging and shock expression pasted on their faces. Realising she was in public, she gave them a big smile to hide her embarrassment. Return the disdain look with the sweetest smile. Everyone back to their own activities like nothing happens but Kahina kept on walking aimlessly not knowing where to go neither to do. Finally, she reached the park near the beach and take a seat on one of the bench while facing the beautiful blue scenery.

She loves the breeze and the warmth of the sun on her skin. Her heart, on the other hand, won't agree with her. The pinching pain inside suffocated her. She clearly regretted walking away from him instead of calmly asked the truth. Another heavy sigh left her chest.

Now, it is embarrassing to go back to him and act as nothing happens.

'Stupid Kahina! Stupid! Useless brat!' she cursing herself repeatedly.

"Err... Woman..." a warm touched to her shoulder startled her. She immediately grabbed the hand and twisted it.

"Ouch! Ouch! Ouch! Layla! Let go!"

When she saw the man she attacked was Touma, she immediately let go of him and checked his wrist, worried she might hurt him.

"I'm sorry! Oh my god! Are you okay?"

"It's hurt..." he pouted.

"Where? Tell me! Oh God! What did I do?"

"It's hurt here..." he pointed at his heart and smiled. "It's hurt when you ran away from me. It's hurt when you angry at me."

Kahina speechless. Is this the same Touma he knows? She really can't keep up with the changes and it is really bad for her heart. If this goes on, she wasn't sure what would happen to her in future.

Touma stared at her worried expression. He did enjoy the panic on her face. It brings the warmth inside him. He pulled Kahina near his heart, let her listened to the crazy beat. The beat he always hopes she knows. The beat of him wanting her.

"I'm sorry..." he whispered softly.

"Tou..." He forced his lips onto her; indulging the sweetness of her lips. The giddiness insides him crawling up forcing him to go further but he doesn't want to make her angrier than she already is. Forcing a girl, was never his style. Slowly he parted with her, leaving her mouth slightly gasped for air.

"Six o'clock."

Still drowning in the rainbow of happiness, she couldn't grasp Touma's word. She looked at him; confused.

"Six," once again he stressed his voice.

Kahina looked at her six and saw two silhouettes hiding behind the bush around twenty metres from them. The Lolita and the other was the Silver man. Her face dropped instantly, disappointed. It was pretended kiss again. She knew it was too good to be true for him to be that sweet without reason.

"What are they doing here?!" she glared at Touma.

Ignoring Kahina's question, he shoves a bouquet of roses to her. And there was a card in between the roses. She looked at him but he just stood there unmoved.

Kahina opened the card and her lips curled up.

**********************************************

To my dear Kahina,

I'm sorry for whatever reason it may be.

And thank you for always be by my side.

Sincerely,

Touma Anzo

**********************************************

Honestly, Kahina was really confused by him. If this is just a pretend, he seems to take it seriously. Kahina can't understand his action. He also not much a talker. He chose not to explain a lot of thing to her forced her to make her own conclusion. She contemplating for a while. A moment later, her expression changed to serious.

If he wanted to pretend, now let her takes advantage of it. As she settled down her feeling, she jumped to him and gave him a peck.

She whispered, "I love you. Please, just look at me. I will always be by your side."

She grabbed his hand and walked toward the bushes.

"Are you both having fun, Peeping Tom? Let's go. We have work to do."

Witnessing the makeup scene in front of them, they both still in daze tried to convince themselves what they just saw wasn't their imagination but real.

"Didn't you listen? Want to visit your ancestor?" A cold deep voice greeted them made the instantly stood up.
