~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
Thanks for waiting for more than a week. I've been so busy lately with essays and homework and more says and homework. I swear one of these days when I become president of the United StatesI will burn those textbooks that make our life a living nightmare. But then again if I were president of the United StatesI'd probably ruin the country. Hehe so enough about me let's get on with the story!
~ * ~ * ~ * ~ * ~ *
"Matt?!"
Matt froze right on his spot. There stood Sora with an impression that was full of things he couldn't really make out, and Yolie and Mimi just watched wondering what the hell is going on. Matt turned around and slammed the door shut on all their faces.
Kari watched him in surprised on why he would do that.
Sora, Mimi, and Yolie stared at the door that just slammed in their faces. Mimi furled in anger, especially since she got slammed from her own house door. She roamed around her purse and took out a silver key. She placed it in the knob and turned, after hearing a small click the door opened.
.
Matt heard the click of the door being unlock. He panicked and ran to the bedroom up the stairs. Moments later he came back and whispered to Kari to not let the woman know where he fled of to. Kari not knowing what the hell is happening just nodded.
.
Mimi turned to Sora. "Are you coming in?"
Sora hesitated for a moment, and thought about it and decided she would come in, and demand answers from Matt. She went in following Mimi and Yolie's footsteps. She glanced around the house, or should I say mansion and noticed how big it was inside as it was in the outside. It was especially more beautiful as well. She saw a brunette woman staring at her from the couch. But she saw no trace of the blonde-haired man. Maybe it was a pigment of her imagination. She must have missed him so much she's probably hallucinating that every guy she meets with blonde hair and blue eyes is Matt Ishida. But the thought of the guy she just saw being Matt Ishida came back when Mimi yelled out his name.
"MATT!!! You jerk I can't believe you shut the door on us!!!" Mimi fumed. Mimi made her way up the stairs ignoring Kari's gestures on not making her go up.
Sora opened her mouth. No, it could've just been a coincidence right?
Yolie sat down where Kari was and just stayed there silently.
Sora joined them and sat down as well. The three girls just waited, and Sora tempted to get out. They heard Mimi yelling then some whispering then a person, or should I say persons making their way to the living room. T.K. and Davis revealed themselves in the room and Sora gasp. T.K. looked over at her and had the same reaction.
"T.K?!" "Sora?!" They both yelled at the same time.
Sora stared at the familiar blonde who was supposed to be her future brother-in-law.
T.K. just gaped in horror. "Um Sora, what are you doing here?"
Sora shook her head. "I should ask you the same question."
Davis plopped himself on the couch and watched the scene unfold.
T.K. ignored Sora's intense glare, he tempted to say something but he just closed his mouth. Praying silently, he wanted a distraction, and soon enough Matt came down followed by Mimi.
Sora eyes left T.K. and traveled to Matt.
"Hey," Matt calmly spoke.
Instead of answering Sora turned on her heel and went out the door, leaving everyone in the household, except Matt, utterly confused. Matt left the crowd and followed Sora out.
Mimi cocked one eyebrow and left the living room and up the stairs. Kari and Yolie didn't know what to do, and they especially didn't know what was going on. But Davis and T.K. was a different story. They knew what was going on, and they definitely had a good guess what was happening outside.
.
Matt ran out of the mansion and caught up with the red-head.
"Get away from me Matt. I can't believe you would lie to me." Sora said and stalked of the other direction, mumbling a few swear words.
Matt sighed. "Sora! Sora just wait a minute please, you don't know half of what---"
Sora turned and angrily glared at him. "Do you think I'm stupid?! You can't tell me that you aren't engaged to that girl in there. Because I saw you Matt, I saw your picture and I know that that's Mimi with you on the cover." She turned around again but Matt instinctively grabbed her arm.
"Will you please just let me explain? You're downright over reacting." Matt said in a firm tone.
Sora frowned while crossing her arms and stayed on her ground allowing him to speak.
"Well, you see, I'm not technically engaged to Mimi. How do you know her anyways?" Matt asked.
Sora uncrossed her arms. "What?"
Matt shook his head. "Um no wait, okay um. As I was saying um the thing is, Mimi and I are betrothed."
.
Yolie and Kari eyed T.K. and Davis who were practically pacing around the whole room.
"Okay you two bimbos definitely know something, and I wanna know what you two know." Yolie said.
"Yeah," Kari agreed.
T.K. sighed and sat down across from the two prying girls. "Okay um, well um, you see um."
Davis sighed. "To cut it short that woman outside, Sora, is Matt's ex-fiancé."
Yolie and Kari looked at one another and back at Davis. "Seriously?"
"Yes I'm serious," Davis answered.
"Why do you think the two were so jumpy on seeing each other?" T.K. asked.
"Wow, that's real bad. But she did know about the betrothal right?" Kari asked.
T.K. and Davis shook their heads.
Unknown to them Mimi heard every word. She tempted to go back upstairs, but she accidentally slipped and fell on her back.
The four adults turned their heads to where Mimi lay rubbing the back of her head.
"Oh my gosh are you okay?!" Yolie and Kari shrieked in unison.
Mimi stood up still rubbing the sore spot. "Yeah of course,"
Mimi grabbed a bag of frozen vegetables and placed it were it hurts. Sensing the uneasiness in the room she broke it.
"So Sora is actually Matt's ex-fiancé huh?" Mimi asked.
The four nodded.
"Hey how do you two know her anyways?" T.K. asked.
"Hmm……… oh she was um my clothing designer at my last fashion show." Mimi replied.
The five stayed silent for a while and the constant ticking of the clock made the silence unbearably.
Yolie lay on the couch getting bored every second. But suddenly a thought came to mind.
"Hey," She said suddenly. All heads turned to her and had her attention.
"Well I was just thinking." She glanced at Mimi. "Well you and Matt has never ever met before but," She gestured to T.K., Kari, and Davis. "But we are more than acquaintances. I don't know it's just funny now that you think about it."
Mimi glanced at the four and began to think to herself. Yolie was definitely right. She has never met before but she feels like she and Matt are stuck in a circle. This whole arrangement is more than just a coincidence.
.
Sora undid her frown and stared at the man before him.
"Why didn't you tell me?" Sora asked.
Matt shrugged. "I don't know. But what I do know is that I never meant for this to happen. I figured that if I didn't tell you I wouldn't break your heart as much."
Sora smiled and glared at him. "Well you did,"
Matt returned the smile and hugged her.
Sora broke the hugged and glanced at him. But we can't get back together, because of your betrothal."
Matt thought for a moment. "Don't worry I have a plan for that."
After a few moment of sharing their time together, Sora rode a taxi back to her hotel.
Matt walked back to the mansion with a grin plastered on his face. He went in and noticed that everyone was in their pajamas and asleep on the couch. He didn't know he was out that long. But he noticed something Mimi wasn't around here. He knew she was in the bedroom, but he checked just incase.
And as he thought she was in their brushing her hair while staring at the vanity mirror.
Mimi placed the brush down and glanced at her reflection once more, only to see that someone else was doing the same. She turned around and stared at Matt.
"Did you have fun?" She asked.
Matt nodded.
"Good," She replied.
Matt didn't noticed the sharpness of her voice because he was to busy in though of what she was going to say to her.
Mimi went on the bed and pulled the covers over her.
"Mimi," Matt called.
"What," She asked.
"Well I've been thinking, remember what our parents said, that by the end of the days were living together, we come to the decision whether we would want to get married or not?" Matt asked.
Mimi just kept quiet. Not expecting to hear an answer Matt continued.
"Well since we don't want to get married then why not we tell them that we won't when this is all over? What I mean is that when were done living with each other, we'll just tell them that we decided not to get married. I mean you have someone and I have Sora. And I doubt you don't want to marry me right?" Matt asked, but still he received no reply. Thinking that she fell asleep Matt stripped down to his boxers and climbed on bed. He turn to off the light until Mimi called his name out.
"Matt?"
"Yeah,"
Mimi stayed silent and took the covers off her. "Your right, we'll just tell them that we won't get married. And I do have someone." And with that all said from her petite mouth she placed the covers over her and slept.
Matt just stared at the place where she was a few seconds ago. He didn't expect her to agree with it all so fast, but he was happy with it. But what concerned him the most was the sound of her voice. After all he did kiss her right?
He stared at the lump that was beside him and fell asleep soon after.
