I'm Always Here for You

 

Chapter One

 

“No! I can never let my daughter marry someone so poor! If you can't work for yourself, what about my daughter?! I'm sorry, Mr. Taka Sukunami but I'm afraid I can't let you marry my daughter,” Miaka's mom said. “But mom,” Miaka tried to insist but her mom's decision is already final. “Maybe you should go now. You don't have any business here,” her mother commanded Taka to get out of the Yuuki house. “Taka,” Miaka hugged Taka, “please don't leave me,” Taka faced her and looked directly into her eyes, “I planned to go to USA and to work there. When time comes and I already have a good living, I'll come back after three years and marry you. Mark my word,” he said to Miaka while smiling. Miaka let go of him. “When are you planning to leave?” she asked. “As soon as possible,” he answered, “Goodbye,” he finally said. Miaka wasn't able to move. She stared as Taka went out while hot tears rolled from her eyes. “I'll be waiting for you!” she said as she waved goodbye to Taka while following him to the nearby bus terminal…

 

“Hah!” Miaka said as she woke up from her sleep, “The same dream I had last night,” she said. “Taka, three years have passed since you went abroad, I hope you still remember me…and your promise,” Miaka thought as she fixed her bed.

 

“Miaka, breakfast is ready!” Keisuke yelled from downstairs.

 

“Coming!” she yelled back. “Hmm… smells yummy and delicious!” Miaka exclaimed.

 

“Everything's delicious to you,” her brother teased.

 

“Shut up!” Miaka answered happily. Their mother came and served some juice,

 

“Now, start eating and stop that non-” the telephone rang.

 

“I'll get it,” Keisuke volunteered. Miaka didn't pay attention because she's still busy devouring her breakfast. “Hey Tetsuya, what's up?” Keisuke said, “Oh really, well that's good for Miaka… alright, we'll see you later at three… okay bye,” he put the phone down.

 

“What's that for?” Miaka asked as she got another dish.

 

“Tetsuya has some good news, he'll explain later,” he answered.

 

They came at the exact time that Keisuke set to see Tetsuya. “There you are! You came at the right time,” Tetsuya greeted them, smiling.

 

“So, what's the good news concerning me?” Miaka asked excitedly.

 

“First of all, why don't we have some snacks first over that restaurant? I'm kinda hungry and you know it's hard for a hungry man to tell some stories,” Tetsuya said jokingly. Keisuke ordered a cheeseburger and soft drinks, Tetsuya the same, while Miaka ordered a double cheeseburger and soft drinks.

 

“Miaka, you really eat like a pig,” Keisuke remarked. Miaka just stick her tongue out.

 

“So as I was saying a while ago, Taka is coming back next Monday,” Tetsuya began his story. Miaka spat the soft drinks she was drinking to her side.

 

“Gomen,” she apologized. “By the way, are you serious? Is Taka really coming back next week?” Miaka asked.

 

“Yes, and you know what? That big mansion there is his,” Tetsuya answered as he pointed toward the big mansion which needs just a few finishing touches.

 

“I knew it!” Miaka stood up and shouted, “He'll come back for me! He'll fulfill his promise!” she said happily.

 

“Hey Miaka, will you just take your seat! People are staring at you,” her brother said. Miaka sat down and apologized.

 

“Taka, I know you'll do your promise! I've been waiting for so long…I missed you,” she thought happily.

 

Next Monday, Miaka came at the airport early. 6:30 was the arrival time of the airplane that Taka is in. it didn't take so long for the airplane arrived some minutes before the expected time. “Miaka!” came a familiar voice.

 

“Yui! I didn't know you're coming back the same time as Taka,” Miaka said.

 

“Hey Yui, wait for me!” Miaka heard a man's voice. Taka came smiling however, not at Miaka but at Yui.

 

“Taka!” Miaka shouted with joy as she hugged Taka, “I missed you so much!” she said. To her dismay, Taka pushed her away.

 

“Glad to see you too,” he said then held Yui's hand and walked away.

 

“Taka,” Miaka stared as she saw Yui and Taka disappear from a distance. “Something's wrong, I can feel it. Why did he do that to me?” Miaka told herself as she went home.

 

“So, how was your day?” Keisuke asked smiling. Miaka stared at him blankly, without any expression. “Anything wrong?” he asked.

 

“He seems to…forget me…and his feelings for me…I don't know what to do…something's really wrong…” she answered. The doorbell rang.

 

“Hi!” Yui's lively voice lifted Miaka's spirit. “Yui!” Miaka greeted her friend happily. Suddenly, she saw someone behind her best friend.

 

“Taka!” Miaka exclaimed but this time, she just asked him to enter and have a seat. She sat beside him however he always moves away. He finally stood up and sat beside Yui. Yui and Taka exchanged glances and Taka held her hand. Unexpectedly, what Taka did surprised everyone: he kissed Yui's cheek in front of Miaka and her brother!
