G4~CHAPTER TWO~
PART ONE
Yuya turned around alarmingly as he heard the crash. "Who's there?" he asked superiorly without a hint of fear in his voice. Airi held her breath. "Show yourself!" Yuya ordered.
Airi sighed. There no escaping this, she thought. Slowly, she stands up and faces Domyouji Yuya. "Hello," she said while trying to smile. "How do you do?" she laughed nervously.
"Who the hell are you?" asked Yuya rudely.
Airi took a deep breath. Don't get mad. "My name is Makino Airi." She smiled.
"Why are you stalking me?"
"I wasn't-uggh-stalking you," Airi explained," Airi explained. You proud brat. "I was out there and then I heard music so I came here and I saw you playing violin and I thought you might angry so I hid behind this table full of plants but unfortunately I crashed a pot then you found me and now we're talking." Airi said this so fast Domyouji had a hard time catching up.
"So...you're not stalking me?"
"Ye...Yeah," Airi replied.
"Next time, you knock," Domyouji said, placing his violin in its case and leaving. "Oh. And don't tell anyone what you saw and heard 'cause you're so dead if you do." With that, Domyouji Yuya walked away.
Airi flopped on the ground, exhaling with relief. "That was close."
After dismissal...
"Ne, Airi," Hongo called as he is walking outside the gate, trying to catch up with Airi.
Airi is already on her bike. "Nani?"
"So how did the test go for you?"
"It was a breeze." She smiled.
Hongo turned red. "I was wondering if...." He paused.
Airi is staring at him. "Hmm?"
"I was wondering if we could go home together. You know, just as friends," Hongo stammered.
Airi looked regretful. "Uh...gomen, Hongo. I have to work and our houses go in different directions so...nanka, gomen ne?"
Hongo sighed as he watched her go away. "Another regretful day..." he said.
Three feet away from him, he sees Hanazawa Ryo getting in his limousine. As he was staring, Ryo spotted him. Ryo just glared at him as the limo went off.
In the Domyouji mansion...
"Tadaima!" Yuya greeted upon arriving in their house. A row of maids and butlers bowed from his left and right to show respect to their young master. Yuya handed his coat to the nearest maid.
"Is oka-san and oto-san home yet?" he asked them.
"I'm home," a voice said from upstairs.
Yuya looked up. "Oka-san!" He immediately runs toward his beloved mother and hugs her. "Mother! When did you come back?" he asked.
"Just this morning," Makino replied. "Oh, you've grown taller! How was your day?"
"It was...complete," Yuya said.
"Complete meaning you threw another party?" She glared at her son.
Yuya tried to look away from his mom's eyes. "N-No..."
"Yuya..." Makino warned.
"Ok! But technically we didn't throw the party so-"
"What? That means you gave someone a black note again?!"
Oops. "Umm..."
"Yuya, how many time do I have to tell you no to do that? Someone always gets hurt in those. Not to mention you study time is--"
"Ii ja nai, Tsukushi?" a voice joined in.
Makino and Yuya turned around. "Tsukasa!"
"Oto-san, okeari!" greeted Yuya.
"Tadaima," Domyouji Tsukasa greeted back.
During dinner...
"I swear Tsukasa, if we don't teach him a lesson, he is going to grow up to be a...a savage man!" Makino cried.
"Chillax, Tsukushi," Domyouji butted in. "He's going to be fine. I was worse than him, remember?"
"Yes but...I'm still afraid."
Yuya dropped his fork. "Uhh...hello, people? I'm here! Can we please not talk about ore-sama?"
"You're proud just like your father," Makino grunted, shoving a piece of lettuce in her mouth.
"Don't be worried about him. Sooner or later he's going to experience love! Then he'll change!" Tsukasa declared.
Yuya giggled. "Did you love change you, oto-san?"
"Yeah." Tsukasa grinned and winked at Makino.
"Uggh," Yuya rolled his eyes.
"You may be doing that now but we'll see who'll be laughing in the end! Ha ha!"
Yuya turned to his mother. "Putting love aside, did onee-san say when she's going to visit?"
"She said she'll visit tomorrow," replied Makino. 'In the meantime Yuya, you are not allowed to get out of the house for the weekend unless you show me the perfect score in you English test that you had this morning."
Yuya gulped. "How did you know about that, oka-san?"
"I know everything. So no perfect score, no friends."
Yuya's draw dropped. "What?"
"You heard me."
In a bakery shop not so far away.....
"And so that poor Yuugo got beaten up," Airi finished as she took their banner from outside. She and Yuuka are already closing up the shop.
"Naruhudo," Yuuka cooed. "At least Domyouji-san stopped Hanazawa Ryo, right?"
"Worse. He left Yuugo-kun to the students and they beat him him up. But..." she stopped.
"But what?"
"There is a soft spot in him."
"In who?"
"Domyouji Yuya."
"Eh? What is it?"
Airi looked far away as if to reminisce what happened a while ago. She can't help thinking about how...
"Airi!" Yuuka snapped her fingers in front of Airi.
"Huh?"
"Ehh...you're having sparkly eyes. Can it be, you're in love with Domyouji Yuya?"
"Me? No way! With that jerk? Duh! That's impossible!"
"So what is his soft spot?"
"He knows how to play the violin and he likes talking to plants."
"Talking to plants? What on earth for?"
"Studies say that when you talk to them, they will grow beautifully. It's just amazing that spoiled brat like him would care about plants."
"I guess not all people can be judged by their covers."
Airi shrugged and went back to work.
Meanwhile, in the Hanazawa household....
Ryo's elder sister, Hanazawa Satomi, knocked on her brother's door. "Ryo? Are you all right?"
No reply.
"I'm coming in." As Satomi entered, she saw a lot of paint tubes scattered on the floor. Ryo is sitting in front of a canvas with his back against his sister, Satomi peeps into his work.
"Woah...that is a beautiful sky," she stated as she sat beside Ryo.
Ryo's room is full of his paintings; his wall is almost covered by his masterpieces. Some paintings which can't fit on the wall are leaning on it from the ground, waiting for their time to be displayed.
"Arigatou, onee-san." He smiled. "Just need to put this here and..."
Satomi giggled. "You're so different when you paint."
"That's because painting calms me down."
"Why? Did you fight again today?" Then she noticed a bruise on Ryo's right hand. She quickly approached him and took his hand.
Ryo pulled away. "It's nothing," he said.
"What happened this time?" his sister asked sternly.
"It's nothing," Ryo repeated.
"What do you mean by 'it's nothing'? Tell me, Ryo!"
"It's stupid."
"Tell me anyway."
Few minutes later...
Satomi is wrapping a bandage around Ryo's bruise and she couldn't stop giggling.
"Stop laughing!" Ryo said, hiding his embarassment.
"I still can't believe that reason," Satomi remarked.
"Yeah, yeah..."
"There! All done!"
Ryo flexed his fist. "Thanks, sis. Now if you 'll excuse me, I have to go."
Satomi watched her younger brother leave, sighing.
In Domyouji Yuya's room...
Yuya dialed Soujiroh's number and waited for him to pick up.
Ring! Ring! his cellphone went.
Click. "Moshi moshi," answered Yuri.
"Yuri! I need help!" wailed Yuya.
"Why?" Yuri is surrounded by girls again. One gives him a glass of punch and another feeds him with sushi. The other girls are massaging him as he sat on the sofa while the others are partying.
"My mom she...she told me to--"
"Ne, Sou-chan, who are you talking to?" a drunk girl's voice said.
"Chotto ne, Yuya," Yuri said. He faced the girl with a serious look, held her chin and whispered: "Don't be naughty, my neko-chan, I'll be all yours later."
The girl giggled.
Yuya shivered as he heard Yuri. Boy, this man can play.
Yuri went back. "Ne, what were you talking about?"
Yuya cleared his throat. "My mom said I have to have a perfect score in English or I won't be able to go out of the house!"
"So what? Just study for the next test."
"No. She meant our test today! The only thing I did with that test paper is stare at it!"
"Hmm. That is a big problem."
The girls are getting impatient. "Ne, Sou-chan, let's play. Hang that up."
Yuri sighed. "Gomen ne, Yuya. My girls always comes first." Then he was out.
Yuya stared at his phone. What on earth just happened? Damn that Soujiroh! Choosing girls over friends. That guy is unbelievable! he thought. Maybe I should call Hikaru....
Ring! Ring!
"Moshi moshi?" Hikaru said in a serious tone.
"Hikaru! Are you busy right now?"
Hikaru looked at his enormous ikebana. It reached up to the ceiling of their traditional japanese room and there are many kinds of flowers. "Not really," he replied.
"I need help! You see..."
"That should go over here...hmm...maybe I should also place another stem over this side...that's better," Hikaru muttered.
"Uhh...Hikaru?"
"Should I put this over here? or here?"
"Hikaru!"
"Oh. Yeah. What were you saying?"
"Are you doing your flower arrangement right now?"
"Yes. Why?"
"Umm...I'll call you later," Yuya said.
"Ok."
Yuya sighed. When Hikaru's doing his flower arrangement, there's no way he'll be listening to you. There's only one person left to call...
Ring! Ring!
"Nani yo?" Ryo greeted (?).
"Ryo, what would you do if you're desperate to ace a test?"
"Ryo raised an eyebrow. "What are you talking about?"
"Just answer."
"I'll study," Ryo said with a bored tone.
"Yeah but what if the test already happened and you wanted to ace it?"
"Yuya, where are you going with this?"
"Just answer, dang it!"
"All right, all right. So the test happened and you didn't study and you wanted to ace it?"
"Yeah. What should I do?"
Ryo sighed. "Pray for a miracle."
Yuya frowned. "Ryo, I'm serious!"
"Ok. I guess I'll interchange my paper with the one who aced it the test. Simple."
Yuya's eyes brightened. "Ryo, you're a genius! With that, Yuya hung up. Now the only problem is finding out who aced the test by going to the faculty room.
Yuya sends a message to his co-G4 members:
'Guys, bring flashlights tonight and meet me in Eitoku. We're on a deadly mission.'
