Spoiled Love
-Kasumi-
I was so happy that my sisters left the festival. Things are so stressful with them around. Some of them are so desperate for men. I don’t understand why they like my boyfriend so much. I sighed as I finished putting the stand away.
“Is something wrong?” I heard behind me. I turned to see Shoji-kun watching me. I turned to see Shoji-kun watching me. His concerned eyes made me feel guilty. He’s such a good boyfriend and here I am being a bitch towards him. I shook my head.
“It’s been a long day,” I said. He gave me a sympathetic smile. Shoji walked over and put his arm around my shoulders.
“Come with me,” he whispered.
“Why?” I asked, “Where are we going?”
“Just come along,” Shoji said. He took me with him outside of the school. The sun had already started to set. He took me hand into his.
“Let’s go for a walk,” Shoji-kun said. I gave him a blank stare. He pulled me along before I could speak. Everywhere I looked, everyone was packing up. Shoji himself looked rather content. I looked over at him.
“Shoji-kun, where are we going?” I asked. He looked at me with a smile.
“We’re just walking,” he answered. I pressed my lips together and lowered my eyes. I couldn’t hold it back anymore.
“Look, Shoji-kun,” I said. “I can be a total bitch to you at times.” He didn’t speak. I swallowed as I tried to gather my courage to speak. “I don’t handle stress well,” I confessed.
‘I know,” he said. I looked at him rather surprised.
“What?” I asked. Shoji pressed his forehead against mine.
“I love you and your flaws,” he said in a low voice.
“I’m trying to fix them,” I murmured.
“And that’s fine,” he replied, “Just stay you.” My cheeks turned warm and red. Shoji led me out to the school garden. I closed my hand tighter around his. Shoji glanced over at me from the pressure.
“Kasumi-chan?” he asked. I stopped and lowered my head.
“I really mean it,” I said.
“Kasumi-chan,” my boyfriend spoke. I lifted my head in desperation.
“I want to be a good girlfriend for you,” I insisted.
“You already are,” Shoji said. I shook my head.
“I’m not,” I confessed, “I don’t handle stress and I fly off the handle when another girl looks at you.” I wanted to stop talking, but my conscience wouldn’t let up. ‘I don’t want to be one of those crazy-obsessed girlfriends who ends up alone because she chased him away.” Shoji hugged me to chest.
“It’s okay,” he murmured. “You’re doing fine, whatever you choose for your life, I will support you.” I looked up at him rather surprised.
“You promise?” I asked. Shoji-kun gave me a small kiss on my lips. He didn’t need to answer in words. I threw my arms around his neck.
I don’t know what it is about me. I believe that I am spoiled with love for this boy. I can’t help it, that’s how I am. I just love Shoji-kun.
