Yoshiko
"December 10th, six years...have passed."
Standing inside my apartment, I was immersed in my thoughts when suddenly I remember that I have to visit Murataki-san. I took the keys and closed the door and stopping at his door I was thinking.
'What does he think about me?'
I press the bell.
Ding Dong
I heard you, your strong and fast steps. You make me notice your anxiousness to open the door.
Clang
The door opens, revealing the face of Murataki-san, he is really handsome with his short black hair and his dark eyes like me.
"Hi, Yoshiko-san, please get in."
"Thanks, Mutaraki-san, sorry for the intrusion."
I take off my heels and enter into the house.
"Please, take a seat, Yoshiko-san."
He goes to the kitchen and he serves me tea.
"Thank you, Murataki-san, I want to ask. Are you free tomorrow? I want to know more about the city because I came from a town far away."
"Oh, I also come from to a town." He said looking at me with surprise.
"Wow, to think that we have something in common makes me really happy." I said with a big smile.
Murataki-san looks embarrassed and his cheeks turning red. It makes him look cute.
A thing got my attention, there's a ball of baseball in the drawer.
Murataki-san must be notice my curiosity because he says
"Oh, this ball was, when I was in high school, a friend gave me this as a present for my birthday."
"Your friend does treat you very well, doesn't he?"
"Yes. He is my best friend and the most important person to me."
I smile and said
"You are so fortunate to have him. Can you tell me more about him?"
"Sure, his name is Yoshiro I know him since we were kids, but I don't know why, but since I came here I haven't heard anything from him."
"Oh, what a pity"
"Yes, I feel sad because I used to have him around, and we have a close relationship, I want to know what happened to him."
"I'm sorry, but it's getting late, I have to go back."
"Oh, of course, I'm sorry to hold you back for too long."
"No, it was not troublesome instead I feel happy to know more about you."
"About what, you ask before, I get off of work at 6 p.m. Can I pick you up at 7 p.m.?"
"Ok, see you tomorrow Murataki-san."
"See you Yoshiko-san."
After I left Murataki's-san home, lying on my bed.
Flashback
I sneak to him and cover his eyes.
......
"You always know it's me! How do you know?" I said while I'm laughing.
......
"Then, I bet you don't know what is the surprise I have for you!"
......?
"Close your eyes."
"Ta-dah, I work hard to get it to you, so don't dare to ever lose it.
......?
"Of course is me, you tell me that you want it."
.......
"Ok, ok, I understand you are also the most important person to me." At that moment I was the happiest person in the world while we hugged each other.
